Amusing to Assemble and Observe -- Eyes jiggle, legs wiggle, and antennas sway to and fro in the tango-jitterbug frightened - grasshopper dance. -- Use this kit's contents to create a delightful little bug who nervously frolics around when powered by the sun. -- The solar panel means no batteries are required. And, no tools are needed because assembly is easy with parts that snap-together. -- The solar panel's output is 1.1V x 50mA and the Frightened Grasshopper is 2" x 1" x 1/2" in size.

(More customer reviews)Nephew had fun building this but one piece broke right off the bat and could not be used. Movement on the piece was very nice

Robot Kit. Ages: 10 Years & Up. Made by OWI.
Almost lifelike, OWI's aluminum beetle building kit features one of strongest creatures on earth that you assemble from metal and bendable aluminum parts. You might ask, what is the strongest creature on earth? I hear you thinking. Did you say lion? Elephant? Ant? An African elephant would be an excellent guess. It can carry up to 25% of its own weight on its back. A real educated one might say an ant. Well, an ant can drag similar proportional weight. If you guessed Rhino Beetle, you are absolutely correct! The Rhino Beetle can carry 850 times its won weight! Unfortunately, if you tried to put 850 times OWI's Rhino Beetle on its back, its six bendable aluminum legs would collapse and squish this little bug. On the other hand, it's cool to build the 26 hard and soft pre-punched aluminum parts, 4 screws, 4 nuts, and 7 springs with the assembly tools that are included. Rhino Beetle's legs, wings, and horn are all moveable. No Batteries Required.

Solar Powered Cockroach- Educational Toy Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pretty neat toy for the first couple of uses. It really just vibrates when the sun hits it. Kids love it for a while but it is rarely used/played with now. It is very delicate as well.
Cheap enough to recommend though.
