Today’s noon broadcast of local ABC affiliate WTNH had a toy buying guide segment. Vex was the first product covered! :smiley: There was a brief plug for FIRST, but not by name.

See the clip @ www.wtnh.com check their video playlist for “Toy Tips by Ted Koppy”

Phew! Too much Javascript to sort through to get the actual URL. But I finally found it:

Basically, the video is about Christmas season toy reviews, and one of their products covered was VEX. The woman doing the reviews gave praised Vex, and there was video from the 2005 Championship Event in there as well. The video was caught by my father at lunch time. Finally - robots are going mainstream! http://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/9.gif

Kudos to Vex!

That’s the latest add-on kit. It let’s Vex pick it’s own favorite music while you build it. :ahh:
