This is the right place to be, being new to robotics!
LM have done their very best to make robotics for everyone. browse about the site and study the bits that interest you.
i think what ever hexapod you get, you will be able to get the best help from these forums. i wouldnt worry if you dont have robotic experiance, YOUR IN THE RIGHT PLACE!

to start off i would get an SES (servo erector set) kit! These components are extremely versatile, making virtually any mechanical arrangement possible.
i would get the AH3-R (18 Servo Walker) but for a slightly less expensive one you could get the CH3-R (18 Servo Walker)!
get the bits, build it, and off you go. not much experience needed!
hope this helps, anymore questions please ask!
good luck.
