Meccano Spykee Wi-Fi & SpyKee Micro Spy Bots

Meccano offers a range of innovative and high tech robots you can easily build yourself.

The WiFi SpyKee (ages 8+) sees, hears and even speaks! This spybot can be controlled remotely from your computer with included software and WiFi card, or from anywhere in the world for that matter! The SpyKee Wi-Fi robot can be built according to several different specs so you create a custom robot with the look you want.

At 15cm tall, the SpyKee Micro (ages 7+) is the Wi-Fi’s little brother. He is a micro-cell remote control robot who whizzes about on a variety of terrain with lights & sound, plays MP3 music, and detects movements!
