The Battle Spider is a variant of the Spider. It is powered by three replaceable LR44 (AG13) Button cell batteries. The head presses the leg joints into moving forward in the direction where the head is pointed. The Spider is a remote-controlled hexapod robot able to change direction by its head rotation. It is suitable for children eight years of age and older. It is available in multiple colors and comes with two batteries. Featuring bump sensor feelers, it crawls and senses objects. Upon contact or noise, the bug reverses in a half circle, then moves forward in a new direction. The hi-tech HEXBUG Beetle, a micro robotic creature, will travel in a straight line until it hits an object in its path or hears a loud noise.

The toy debuted in 2007 at RadioShack stores. It was available in five different shapes and colors: Alpha (orange), Bravo (green), Charlie (blue), Delta (yellow), and Echo (red). The Beetlebug, the initial Hexbug model, is a toy that reacts to loud sounds and pressure on its antennae and scurries around the room.
