Watch out - Kreep-E is on the loose! These robotic critters scuttle along the floor just like REAL bugs. But unlike real bugs, they can self-correct if flipped over. These battery-powered creepy-crawlies use vibration technology to propel themselves along the ground. And Kreep-E move fast on their miniature rubber feet, randomly bumping into things much like real cockroaches. Your two Kreep-E bugs come with a plastic demo-arena and 20 LR44 button cell batteries so you can have them speeding along non-stop in your bedroom or classroom for months.
Age: 5 +
2 x Kreep-E Nano Robots, 1 x transparent plastic demo-arena, 20 x LR44 Button Cell battery. Kreep-E colours vary and will be selected randomly with your order. All in a simple white box.
The tiny motor inside Kreep-E rotates a counterweight that generates 'up' and 'down' forces. The downward force causes the legs to bend and Kreep-E to thrust forward. The upward force causes the creature to lift its front legs off the ground allowing them to unbend and the creature to hop. This up and down movement repeats several hundred times per second allowing forward movement. The Nano bug's ability to flip over by itself is due to the rotating forces caused by the motor and the unique internal and external chassis design. A fascinating nano-robotic creature.
