Hexbug, from robotics specialists Innovation First, will be showcasing the latest innovations to its toy and gadgets line. New ranges include a line of new
micro robotic creatures, Tagamoto cars that react to codes on the road and the introduction of Hexbug Vex Robotics.

Users can utilise its two-channel infrared remote control to operate each side of the Strandbeast’s legs independently and the robot is available in five translucent colours.
Elsewhere, consumers can settle all sorts of arguments with Hexbug Battling Spiders, the first mechanical Hexbug designed for two-person play. These battling robots with two-channel infrared remote control feature a ffuturistic voice, sound effects, battle- hardened deco and hi-tech life- sensor that measures each hit. Hexbugs are hitting the water in
new Hexbug Aquabots body styles. These micro robots feature smart fish technology and fresh additions include the
Hammerhead Shark and Angelfish. Both feature LED lights that blink in unison with the movement of their tails. Hexbugs is introducing a
‘robotics revolution’ with VEX Robotics, a range that allows users to get creative. The high tech kits give consumers the chance to build and programme their favourite jumbo-sized Hexbug, and these robots can run in autonomous mode or driver-controlled mode. Nuremberg will also play host to the latest version of the Nano, the Nano V2, which can now climb vertically thanks to three rubber spines on its back. Hexbug and Nano technology has been combined to create Tagamoto, a range of motorised micro-sized cars. Using a new code reading system, these vehicles react to codes on the road with lights, sounds and movement. Hexbug: Hall 12, Stand I-02 Innovation First: Hall 12, Stand E40, D41
