Turn any space into an educational playground with the Gecko Run engineering set!

Gecko Run breaks free from traditional building limitations with innovative flexible tracks that attach directly to walls, windows, and furniture using advanced nano-adhesive technology. Build spectacular marble courses that climb higher and span farther than ever before, using your household surfaces as integral parts of the track system.

The ingenious nano-pad attachment system creates strong temporary bonds without glue or permanent adhesives, allowing unlimited repositioning and experimentation across any smooth surface. These reusable pads maintain their grip through multiple uses and clean easily with a microfiber cloth, ensuring endless building possibilities without mess or damage.

Crafted from sustainable materials, the flexible track segments bend, curve, and twist to create unlimited configurations featuring jumps, loops, corners, and stunts. This Deluxe Starter Set combines three complete expansion collections plus bonus components, providing everything needed for advanced marble run engineering adventures that develop problem-solving skills and demonstrate physics principles in action!

Key Features:

  • Nano-adhesive pad system enables effortless attachment to any smooth vertical or horizontal surface throughout your home
  • Damage-free repositioning technology leaves no residue, marks, or sticky aftermath on surfaces
  • Unlimited configuration possibilities create unique track layouts that never repeat the same design twice
