These little NANO bugs that come in test tube inspired containers are either a HUGE hit with kids, tweens, teens and even adults that need a little bug to pull out of their office desk every now and then. At $7.99 each--they're affordable, come in lots of different colors.  New this season is the Hexbug Nano Battle Bridge ($39.99). When our testers built it, they commented that it looked more like a "parking garage for bugs that they could never really exit!"  Pure novelty--and a whole lot easier to tend to than hamsters.

The company has signed a verification form complying with our safety requirements. We did not independently test this toy in a lab.
