This is from Greg at Axial:

"Actually that is a product that is available, BUT not from Axial. Yea, it was an April fool's day joke, and you can actually purchase the product here: http://www.crustcrawler.com/

We've actually had contact with the company, and they were in on the joke. Hope you guys enjoyed it"


Here's the direct link to the Crawler:

12 servos is only dollars, I can manage. All those Parallax microcontrollers is brainpower, can't buy that! And I was just getting the hang of tire foam set-up, but what the heck do I do with... umm... feet!

Great gag.

Cheers.
