RC Worm? More Like A Bat!

Warning!  WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.

It may look like a bat, but this remote control HEXBUG" is called the Worm, presumably for its motion. It's 2-1/2" tall x 3-1/2" wide x 1-1/2" deep OA, with a 2" x 1-1/4" x 1/2" thick remote. Moves forward or back, inch-wormishly, on its long arms, but turns at your command on a rotating quatro-foot on the bottom. The remote has A and B channels, so you can order a pair and have worm wars. Assorted translucent colors (our choice). Comes with easily replaceable button-cell batteries.
