When I was a kid my mother would tell me over and over, “no Hot Wheels cars in the bathtub”. Nowadays it’s actually encouraged with sets like the Hot Wheels Race Rally Water Park Playset

The nice people from Hexbug sent us over one their newest creation to review- the Hexbug Aquabot Robotic Fish.
As you can see, the fish is translucent color so you can see the mechanicals right inside it. It comes in a variety of color choices too. The other neat thing about the Aquabot is that as soon as you put it into water, it starts to swim around automatically. It turns off after 5 minutes or when removed from the water. Check out the video demo below and you can see our junior intern testing it out:
Pretty fun stuff. Obviously it would swim better in a rounded bowl without corners to get stuck in. As I mentioned in the video, the Aquabot can actually be used in a variety of situations- as a bath toy, in swimming pools, or even on your desk in a fish bowl. A fish you never have to feed! Love it!
Hexbug Aquabot Robotic Fish Review
Turn your pool into a Venetian paradise (in miniature) with the Serenading Pool Gondolier. This 9″ tall crooner on a 15″ boat floats around your pool and sings three classic Italian opera songs, “La dona è mobile, ‘O sole mio, and Funiculì, funicular”. Thankfully there’s adjustable volume control. His mouth actually moves when he sings and there’s a light on the gondola’s deck for nighttime concerts. You can control the boat’s path a bit with the rudder. Works in the bathtub too (and obviously if you have a moat it works there too. also you’re pretty awesome if you have a moat.)
