(More pictures and how they work)
Spoiler!
To explain a bit better, each Denjuu has a box that sits inside with wheels and a motor to make it roll...XD (It takes one AA battery and has an on/off switch on the bottom.) The Denjuu's heads are spring loaded so that they'll pop up easily, and the motors are designed so that they only roll when the head is all the way down. *nod* You can also move their arms up and down, and their tails side to side which might affect their balance... Their mouths are also spring-loaded to stay open when their heads pop off. D:
Kind of disturbing. XD Weirdly, Crypto has an issue where he'll stop on his own after a second or two of rolling, probably because his head doesn't go down nearly far enough and it's shaking loose from the head-on-motor button. :/ He has a slightly different design from the other 3, so I'm wondering if this is a problem with all Cryptos, or if mine's just faulty... My Gymnos's motor seems to be totally dead too, so maybe the quality control was bad or something. *sigh* (Luckily you can swap them between Denjuu, so it doesn't really matter. XD)
There are three types of wheels you can use...XD They all come with "normal" wheels attached (the middle set there, with two small nubs on each wheel), plus one set of extra wheels. Crypto and Gymnos get power-type wheels (left one, with one large nub instead), while Fungus and Angios get speed-type wheels (right one, with no nubs and more grip). The normal wheels shake a lot, which makes the Denjuu move slowly and change direction on its own. XD The power wheels are similar, but they make it shake even more... They're also really loud if you use them on a hard surface, which is basically the only place they will work anyway. *sigh* XD The speed wheels are quieter and make the Denjuu take off at high speed in a (mostly) straight line... All of the wheels seem pretty prone to spinning in circles, and there's actually a switch on the bottom of the battery packs to change the tilt of the wheels and make it spin in a particular direction. I'm really surprised they made the toys this elaborate, even if they still don't work very well. ^^;
Lastly, each one comes with its own super-tiny D-Shot, and two, uh... signals to shoot. XD (The instructions say they're supposed to be wireless waves, which is awesome.) You peg them into the antenna and push a button on the side to fire them... They have weights inside which can slide around slightly and make a clicka-clicka noise, which is interesting I guess, except I'm pretty sure it actually makes it fly worse... XD Apparently you're supposed to try to bean Denjuu in the face to make their heads come off, just like with real cellphone signals.
