Around the same time Halo 3: ODST hits store shelves we'll also be seeing a remote control version of the M12 Warthog, M274 Mongoose and AV-14 Hornet manufactured by NKOK. These toys will be available at Toys R Us, GameStop, Walmart Canada, Blockbusters and specialty retailers.

See the pictures and descriptions after the jump.

The Warhog comes with a Master Chief and Blue Spartan. 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. It receives signals at 27 MHz and is powered by six AA batteries; four for the Warthog itself, and two for the controller. The Warthog is now available for $24.99

The M274 Mongoose comes with a Master Chief figurine. The ATV's top speed is about 6 MPH and it receives its signals 49 MHz. 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, for 24.99.

The AV-14 Attack VTOL Hornet 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 $34.99.

:two months later:

"A class-action lawsuit was filed today regarding injuries sustained from the propellers of the supposedly indoor Halo helicopter, which has since been removed from the market."

It could happen...:D

Geez..

I think my problem with Halo is that it was a good idea that everyone is treating like a great idea.

When I played Halo 1, I loved it, but I was expecting MS to create 3 or 4 OTHER quality properties to create a portfolio. Instead they just kept remaking the same one.

My local Gamestop already had them a week ago. My son about had a meltdown because I told him no & to put them on his Christmas list.

Did anyone catch the live action ODST trailer? I'm now excited about the game.

I will buy the Hornet...just to drive my dogs insane. :D

I don’t know who did it, but they did a great job.

Wow, that was actually really good.

The actual game-play video looked slightly different.
