Robot Insect Toy

at 5:26 am. Filed under Toy Hacks

 

Here comes a cool new robot called the NSECT, it looks normal until the wings open to reveal a rotary cannon launcher!

“Last year around this time Tyco released the Shell Shocker, a whirling dervish of a bio beast that could transforn from a ball to a wicked fanblade of death. This year Tyco has released the NSECT, which comes armed with six tactical surface-to-air foam missles that can be fired one at a time or in a single barrage. Working claws and light-up eyes round out the ho-hum features, apparently the selling point of the N.S.E.C.T. is his incredible speed. I’ll either break down and get one to review, or see if I can find a video of this new bio-bug in action. Unless he runs as fast at the Shell Shocker my opinion is that there’s nothing new to see here, been there done that, move along please.”
