Kikkerland Wind-Up Bots have More Legs Than You
January 11th, 2010
These fun wind-up desktop critters from Kikkerland are the perfect addition to any cubicle toy collection.
Designer Chico Bicalho’s MxyKikker crawler is my personal favorite, what with its dozen or so spinny elbow macaroni looking legs which help it move along your floor. Each of these unique creations has a slightly different way of ambling around, but they all are about as whimsical as can be.
Here’s a brief video clip showing off MxyKikker and his pal Bonga in action…
You can find these guys, along with Kikkerland’s entire collection of creepy, crawly automatons over at their online shop. Prices range from $6 to $40 (USD), depending on the size and mechanical complexity of the critter you select.
