The high energy Hexbug Scarab propels itself forwards and backwards, and is capable of popping from its back to its feet If placed upside down. The combination of the scarab's six specially designed angular legs, coupled with its lightning speed, make it easy for it to scurry away from obstacles in its path and flip over if caught on its back. This bug is filled with robotic intelligence, and protected by a hard, transparent exoskeleton casing.
