I remember seeing something like these a while back when I was doing some podcasts with a good friend of mine Sean P. Aune but this version definitely looks like they could be a lot of fun.

Called the Hexbug Spider it has its own little control pad which you have lots of fun controlling it, in others spider fights.

With six robotic legs and a head that rotates through 360 degrees, the level of control you have over your Hexbug Spider is fantastic. Take one step or many, turn quickly or slowly, it’s up to you. The Hexbug Spider has one LED eye that lights up when it turns and there’s five different colours to choose from too! The dual band control also means that two spiders can be used at the same time in case you wanted to stop beating up your lego men and pit two Spiders against each other instead.
