This is an open source robot based on the Arduino and considering it uses 19 servos and includes one extra servo, it is low cost considering the source material is included on a thumb drive so you can cut your own parts. The picture I posted differs slightly with the one in the video. If you want to shop around, consider how much other hexapods cost:

The funding is on Kickstarter and there are 28 days of funding left. I may wait until I can afford it from:

I've been following kickstarter for a while now (thanks to you) and have seen this one on there!
