Bobble Bots and Hexbugs are fun for Easter

From the creators of HEXBUG® Micro Robotic Creatures comes an all-new buzzing, explorative, and collectible line of toys with customizable playsets. Set to launch spring 2012, Innovation First International teamed up with Mind Candy – the entertainment firm behind the globally successful Moshi Monsters brand – for the debut range of Bobble Bots^TM Moshi Monsters.

This new brand of innovative robotic pets and playsets fuses some of what fans love most about HEXBUG – high-tech vibration technology, collectable pieces, and open-ended creative building play – with the hugely popular virtual Moshling characters and buildings, in a way that brings Monstro City to life for millions of fans worldwide.

The initial assortment of Bobble Bots Moshi Monsters products available at launch will include 24 battery operated collectible Moshlings and a variety of configurable 3-D “dollhouse” replicas of the streets, yards, buildings and houses found online in Monstro City. Every Bobble Bots^TM Moshi Monsters product will include secret codes to unlock new content in the online world at www.moshimonsters.com.

Innovation First International was founded on the belief that innovation very early in the design process is necessary to produce simple and elegant product designs. Innovation First International’s three main subsidiaries, VEX Robotics, Inc., Innovation First Labs, Inc. (makers of HEXBUG® Micro Robotic Creatures), and RackSolutions, Inc. span the education, consumer and business-to-business markets. For more information visit www.bobblebots.com.

HEXBUG Larva

The robotic creature that senses objects and changes direction.

I have to admit, this creeped me out a bit, lol. The kids loved it though. It’s amazing how it detects objects in it’s way and changes direction, and the movement is very insect like and realistic.

The kids really enjoy them and I like that they are bigger than the other hexbugs we have, so they don’t get lost so easily and don’t have to be in the habitat to keep track of them.
