Halo 3 collectors and fans, heads up! You may have seen the Halo RC Warthog for your Xbox 360 Avatar, but did you know there are actually some Halo 3 Remote Control vehicles coming during the launch of Halo 3: ODST? The Halo 3 M12 Warthog R/C is actually already available for $24.99. A couple more R/C vehicles will be coming September 22, 2009. Each vehicle brings it's own unique battery-powered controller. These new Halo R/C Vehicles come from NKOK and will be available from retail stores such as Toys R Us, GameStop, Walmart Canada, Blockbuster, and more through Diamond Comic Distribution.

Here are the details, price and availability on each Halo 3 R/C vehicle:

The Warthog R/C (see picture here) car comes with a Master Chief and Blue Spartan figurine. The rear-mounted M41 Light Anti-Aircraft Gun turret is fully moveable and has a place to position one of the figurines. With a top speed of approx. 7 MPH, the Warthog is the fastest R/C vehicle in the Halo collection, perfect for recreating the action from those late night Team Capture the Flag (CTF) matches. It receives signals at 27 MHz and is powered by a total of six AA batteries; four for the Warthog itself, and two for the controller. The Warthog is now available at an MSRP of $24.99. The Warthog R/C is available online at GameStop.com .

The M274 Mongoose (see picture here) is a faithful representation of the ATV used by the UNSC forces in Halo 3. Also included with the Mongoose is a Master Chief figurine. A top speed of approx. 6 MPH and receiving at 49 MHz will provide entertaining races with the Warthog. The Mongoose takes six batteries; four for the Mongoose itself and two for the remote control. It will be available in late September, in time for the release of Halo 3: ODST, at an MSRP of $24.99.

First seen in Halo 3, the AV-14 Attack VTOL Hornet (see picture here) is an indoor flying helicopter, lifted by a pair of gyroscopic propellers. It features stability and precision speed control. Operated by a Tri-band infrared control selector, the Hornet can be switched from A to B to C bands to fly with two other Hornets simultaneously. The remote control is powered by six AA batteries and the Hornet itself runs on a rechargeable Li-Poly battery. Available with the Mongoose in late September, the Hornet will be offered at an MSRP of $34.99. Pre-order it here at GameStop.com.
