Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Hot Wheels introduces its latest innovation in radio control. Featuring a "biomechanical" design, the N.S.E.C.T. robot scurries with amazing speed and then transforms from "bio-bug" to "bio-missle" blaster in seconds! Two shooting modes allow the N.S.E.C.T. single or rapid fire, up to an alarming distance of 25 feet. It also has working claws for capturing things, and laser-like eyes that change color when it's in attack or explore mode.

The N.S.E.C.T. Robot requires one 7.2V battery and charger, plus one 9V battery for the transmitter, all included. 49 MHz. Measures 15" long.



Amazon.com Review:
This remote control robot looks like a weird cross between a tank and a tick. It has six legs, glowing eyes, and snapping jaws in front. The best part, though, is its Gatling gun-style missile launcher. At the flip of a glowing red switch on the remote, the launcher pops up from under its hard, wing-like cover. You can use the right trigger to shoot the missiles off one at a time or fire all six automatically in under five seconds. You can even shoot while the N.S.E.C.T. is moving. The missiles travel up to 20 feet because they are made of light foam with soft, suction cup tips and weigh .07 ounces each. This makes collateral damage to heirloom china unlikely. The pincher-like "power claw" in front can grab and hold some objects. We were able to drag an empty coffee mug around the floor by its handle, but the N.S.E.C.T. didn't have a deep enough grip to go around the mug itself. Controlling the N.S.E.C.T. is pretty easy; it can move forward, reverse, and can do both moving turns and stationary pivots. N.S.E.C.T. is loads of fun, but be prepared for the fact that its battery needs a good five hour charge before any fun begins. N.S.E.C.T. comes with the remote control, a NiCd battery pack and charger, a 9 volt battery for the transmitter, and basic instructions. --Porter B. Hall

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a fun toy. I bought it for my 6 year old. It does quite a few things and keeps him entertained. The downfall is the battery pack doesn't last that long otherwise it's worth buying.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Broken out of the box
Even though other reviews indicated problems out of the box, my grandson was hooked and thought he had to have it. We chanced it, and sure enough, our bug was one of the broken-out-of-the-box ones too. It is also as noisy as a tank! Surely something I would be telling him to turn off shortly after he has turned it on. Good idea, just does not perform well.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - dont give it as a gift, only purchase if you an adult wanting it
what turd, i was wondering why people on ebay sell these things for 32 bucks shipped. mine is defective, first the controls wouldnt work, then after i pushed on the controls harder it started to work slowly. when you first turn it on the gun comes out of hiding, but if you move it forward or reverse then try to take the gun out, it wont come out and doesnt even try. now i gotta sell this POS on ebay as a parts nsect. if not i might take it apart and try to install hobby grade stuff, or at least ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Worked great with one modification
I love the insect action of this toy. As noted, the missile firing is problematic. It's hard to determine the specific problem from some of the reviews. My issue turned out to be that the insect wings were too heavy and preventing the cannon from fully rising. A quick fix was to unscrew the head plate (three screws), remove the wings (held by two plastic brackets using two screws each), and then reattach the head plate. I wasn't too keen on the wings to begin with, and I like the appearance with the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One happy boy
My four old son saw a commercial on tv for this toyTyco R/C N.S.E.C.T. Robotic Attack Creature - 49MHZ - Blue. He really wanted it. I found in on Amazon for the best price. I was rather shocked when we received it. I was expecting a small remote control bug, what I got was huge. It is well over a foot long and almost as wide. Imagine my sons surprise when he received it for Easter. He had to show everyone, even strangers. He has learned eye/hand coordination and has loved playing with it. Best ... Read More
