RC Mexican Redknee Tarantula

Spiders – you either love them or hate them and, I’m ashamed to say, if they’re any bigger than a coin then I won’t go near them, and if they’re big enough to be able to see their eyes then I’m off to a hotel for the night. Luckily the wife is fairly fearless when it comes to creepy crawlies so she tends to pop them out of the window. That said, on a trip to Australia a couple of years back we came across a spider that was of sufficient size to turn the tables on her and it threw her out of the window (I would have put a stop to its antics, but I was frozen to the spot).

But I digress, so let’s get back to this 6.6 inch RC Mexican Redknee Tarantula which not only scuttles convincingly enough across the floor to have your granny shivering behind the sofa but it also has eyes that light up (eek!).

If you’re a practical joker then this is bound to appeal and it can be yours for a mere $24.95 from the TFTS Online shop – which can be accessed via the main menu bar above or directly via this link. Just don’t bring it anywhere near me.
