?
Gecko Run: Marble Run Starter Set
?Traditional marble runs require lots of pieces to create vertical height, but with Gecko Run, your doors, windows, cupboards, bookcases ? virtually any smooth surface ? become part of your track, allowing you to build higher with fewer pieces.?
?Attach the tracks to surfaces with the help of clever nano pads, which work like nanoscopic suction cups, to create a strong, but temporary bond. Because the pads are not glue-based, they can be quickly and easily repositioned many times without damaging adhesives or sticky residue. A quick wipe with a microfiber cloth will keep your pads ready for action!?
?Ages: 8+?
