Editorial review
If you're after a toy that brings a bit of creepy fun to playtime, the HEX BOTS Mechanimals Smart Wall Crawler Gecko is worth a look. This remote-controlled robot mimics a real gecko: it scuttles across the floor and then climbs straight up walls, thanks to its clever wall-crawling mechanism. The design includes glowing LED eyes that are visible in the dark, a flexible green silicone tail, and a black plastic body – perfect for giving friends and family a fright.
The remote control works from up to 8 metres away and allows full directional control, so you can guide the gecko around furniture and up vertical surfaces with ease. It's rechargeable via USB (cable included), so you don't need to keep buying batteries for the robot itself – though the remote does require 2 AAA batteries (not supplied). With over 2,600 reviews averaging 4.2 out of 5 stars, it's clear this toy has found a loyal audience.
