Old and busted: RC Cars; New hotness: RC Cockroaches

Dignity not included.

We’ve all heard that beetles and cockroaches can be “mind controlled” by attaching electrodes to their antennae, evoking the reflex which causes them to turn left and right.  But now you can do it yourself.

If you’re completely devoid of empathy, the RoboRoach Kit is right for you.  All you need is one cockroach (well, probably more, seeing as it only works on 25% of cockroaches) and some space for your new insect slave to roam about.  While it doesn’t allow complete control of the utterly confused animal, you can more or less “steer” the pest down hallways, through kitchens, and presumably into your little sister’s bedroom for your sadistic delight.
