Panopticon toy for trapped insects

Big Bad Boomin Bugs is a $18 science toy that provides a panopticon through which you can minutely observe your captured insect specimens: a magnifying bell-jar with sensitive amplifiers that magnify the insects' sounds, too:

Collect some insects and place them inside the unique sound chamber. A powerful 3X magnifier enlarges your performers so you can see every detail. Put on the headphones and listen as a microphone under the special sound stage picks up and amplifies every move and noise your bug makes!
