Gecko Run: defy gravity, build anywhere!

Transform any room into an exciting marble adventure with Gecko Run, the innovative building system that breaks free from traditional marble run limitations. Using specially designed flexible tracks and revolutionary nano-adhesive technology, Gecko Run lets you create spectacular marble courses that climb walls, navigate furniture, and span entire rooms without requiring bulky support structures.

Turn your home into a playground as doors, windows, cupboards, and bookcases become integral parts of your track design. Build higher and more creatively with fewer pieces than ever before, thanks to the system's unique ability to utilize any smooth surface as part of your marble run.

The Loop Expansion Pack adds thrilling new dimensions to your Gecko Run experience, challenging builders to master the perfect speed and trajectory needed to send marbles racing through gravity-defying loops. With over a dozen additional pieces including loop stunts, extra tracks, marbles, and nano-adhesive pads, the possibilities for experimentation multiply exponentially.

Key Features:

  • Intuitive Surface Attachment: Tracks effortlessly attach to any smooth surface using innovative nano-adhesive pads that function like microscopic suction cups, creating strong yet temporary bonds on vertical surfaces throughout your home.
  • Mess-Free & Repositionable: Non-glue-based nano pads allow for quick and easy repositioning without leaving damage, sticky residue, or adhesive buildup. Simply wipe with a microfiber cloth to restore full adhesive power.
  • Limitless Configuration Options: Flexible track design enables endless building possibilities with hills, jumps, corners, and loops. No two builds are ever the same, encouraging continuous creativity and experimentation.
  • Educational STEM Learning: Hands-on building develops engineering skills, problem-solving abilities, and motor coordination while demonstrating physics principles in action through trial-and-error experimentation.
  • Sustainable Construction: Tracks are crafted from renewable, durable, and sustainably sourced raw materials, ensuring long-lasting play that's environmentally responsible.
  • Complete Expansion System: Loop Expansion Pack includes loop stunt pieces, additional marbles, extra nano-adhesive pads, 2 supplementary tracks, and more components to enhance your Gecko Run Starter Set.
