Toy cars and robots never seem to go out of style. That's why Desk Pet's Carbot, the iOS and Android controlled Micro-Robotic Toy Car is sure to be a perfect holiday gift. The world's first micro-robotic toy car has got plenty of personality. While in maze mode players can set up mazes for the CarBot to navigate with military precision, or switch to Battle mode which allows multiple players to battle via infrared sensors. And if kicking it freestyle is more of your child's thing, try the Drift 'n' Race mode and the CarBot will go crazy racing at full speed.
