Description
Watch out for the motorized creepy crawly HEXBUG Scorpion! Scare your friends as it scuttles around the room, exploring every area it can get to. With the claws helping it ricochet off of walls and objects, and the realistic bouncing action of the tail, you’ll think it’s actually alive! Unsettle those around you with the scurrying Scorpion's bouncing tail and free-swinging front claws. This mechanical bug rebounds off of walls and darts around the room.

The tail is very fragile. It breaks off frequently. The scorpion crawled under the couch, lost the tail and I think my cat ate it...
Awesome!

So bummed. Got these for my bug loving son, and he LOVED them, said they’re his favorite Christmas gift! He received four different bugs, three of the four are already not working. Just tried to change the batteries, and it’s still not working. Save the heart ache and pass on these.
Always a pleasure shopping at Target

My cat loves it! He likes to break of the tail and plays with that. But when he can’t find the tail he likes throwing the scorpion body around.

These are really cute and my grandson loved them but they ran for about a total of 4 hours before the batteries died. It takes 3 of the watch type batteries so I would think they would last a long time but no.

Not even one full day of playing with it and it's already broken! Hexbug toys are the WORST! We've had three and they've all broken within 24 hours.

Excited to gift this to one of my son’s friends for her birthday! We received the red color, which is super cute! It appears as though one of the antennae doesn’t move though, and the packaging came cracked (sharp edges), so unfortunately we will have to take it to the store to exchange. I hope they still have red!
Broke immediately

Tail broke off instantly and keeps breaking in pieces. It's a great idea and would love it if it wasn't so fragile.

My son loved this as Christmas gift but they didn’t hold up as long as I thought. My kids are 8 and 10 so thought we were pass ruining toys. Don’t get my wrong they had fun with them but the tail broke within months

I love flipping the switch and watching this robot scurry across the floor at its intended target, usually my cat Kaja. Works on hardfloor surfaces, or carpet. Really cool!
