Robyn’s Online World blog featured the entire HEXBUG line as great alternative Easter gifts:

I would even have to agree with Taylor on this one and go for the super cool Hexbug! It might be small, but it is mighty in it’s fun. Don’t think they are just for the kids either, adults (like me) love these little robotic creatures just as much as the younger ones. While the bunny is super cute, what am I really going to do with it? Plus the Hexbug is a fantastic alternative to candy - do we really need to buy our kids all that chocolate and sugar? The Hexbug I can keep out and play with 365 days a year!

The blog ‘How did I ever live without it?’ named HEXBUGs their toy of the week on Saturday, March 6.

There is the Original, which resembles a roach, an inchworm, a crab, and the nano. We have a couple of the nanos. They are pretty cool and always a favorite among E-Rays friends when they come over to play.

Engadget visited our booth at the New York Toy Fair and wrote up a quick review along with a bunch of photos.

Okay, so it isn’t as artsy as making gooey bugs in a miniature oven, but HexBug’s little micro-robotic tchotchkes are a good time in their own right. The digital entomologists at HexBugs decided to unleash the new Ant Micro and Nano Newton at New York City’s Toy Fair, and for some peculiar reason we were quite enamored with watching these autonomous, high speed creatures run around the carpeted show floor.

The Woot.com Blog is covering Toy Fair 2010, and gives their take on the HEXBUG Nano & Ant.

The Nano’s also are collectable, and give you points that you can use on the website to… win at robots, or something. Maybe eventually you’ll be able to redeem them for Cobra Commander. We didn’t really take good notes. But we did get to enjoy the Ant!

Online publication Compute Scotland contemplate in their article:

“Gaberlunzie was amused by one Valentine suggestion of Hexbugs and is considering whether the top of the range inchworm, or more limited crab, ant or nano would be most appealing to someone who loathes spiders!”

PTPA Media (Parent Tested, Parent Approved) has listed the HEXBUG Ant as one of its Top 5 Toy Picks this year.

This autonomous, high-speed micro robotic creature with probing, tactile antennas and hooked claws. The industrious critter features front and rear touch sensors that allow it to maneuver around objects in its path and wheel-legs that propel it forwards, backwards and over small obstacles with furious speed.

Check out the other picks over at their site.

HEXBUG Nano and the rest of the HEXBUG product line had a quick mention on Make Magazine’s Holiday Gift Guide among a bunch of other robotic toys.

Another year, another profusion of robot kits, toys, and showy humanoids demo’d by entertainment conglomerates and big car companies. The more things change, the more they stay the same. It wasn’t a huge leap year for the evolution of robokind, but there are definitely plenty of new tools and toys to play with, and plenty of perennial favorites, too. Let’s have a look…
