I excited too, but they should be out soon, because theyr`e on the Wow Wee store website. If they don`t come out soon, though there`s got to be some problem.

can't wait until they release them to stores

In the UK we got to wait till next year :(

So looking forward to all you luky peoples reports on them.

So want to get the set of them.

The more I look at them (pics on the WowWee store and in the article on this site), and the more I read about them, the more I want them. When they are released, I will probably order at least one of each type.

If I had to prioritize; for now, the WowWee (future) products that interest me the most are (in order of priority):

(1) BugBots

(2) Toss up between FemiSapien and Rovio. Depends on final feature lists. It seems to me that given Rovio's *intended*(?) purpose, it SHOULD be able to navigate itself to a charging cradle when necessary (I dunno if it can or cant't) and then resume when charged.

We found the first four! Here you go:

I am going to get them this week...

My local target had some the other week (In Australia that is)

I started with 2 robots but before I knew it, well, it's a disease I tell you.
RSV1, RSV2, RS Media, Homersapien, Spidersapien, Roboraptor, Robotyrannus and Roboquad

Cool - I'm glad to hear that you're excited about these little guys. I'd love to see some pics or video once somebody gets their hands on them - let us know what you think!

I'm especially excited to see multiple Bugbots "swarming" together!

Are there any videos of the bugbots doing their thing?
I saw the pack of 4 at Toys R Us back in August when I was visiting LA, and considered getting them, but without any video to really see what they do, I ended up not getting them.
I wonder, would it be like watching tiny bumper cars? I want to get them, but seeing them in action would be required first.

Yeah, I found it rather odd that on the Wowwee site, they have videos up of things that have not even been released yet, but they don't have any videos for the bugs... and the bugs are already on shelves!
