Toys : Cell phone-controlled RC dinosaurs


KDDI won the portability race and Softbank got Cameron Diaz, but only DoCoMo's i-mode can manipulate a dinosaur!

These new miniature dinosaurs are only 14cm long, but they look like the real thing and can be controlled via IR from the awesome fossil-shaped remote control buttons or your i-mode. The creators carefully studied the movie Jurassic Park to perfect the overconfident swagger of the T-Rex and the wobbly head-shake of the Triceratops.

If your friend has an i-mode, too, you can even make Scary Lizard fight Horn-Face. Of course, we all know who's gonna win...

Available starting mid-November here for 1,680 yen.
