Megapod vs. Hexapod: Which Should You Choose?
Our flagship kits are Vorpal The Hexapod and the new Max The Megapod. These kits are offered both as "Maker" kits that do not include 3D printed plastic parts (you print your own) and as "Complete" kits that all the 3D printed parts.
Which should you choose? That depends on your budget and whether you have a 3D printer with certain capabilities.
