<p>G-Bound is the name of this new amphibious remote-controlled car by the Japanese company CCP, a sub-brand to the large toy manufacturer Bandai.</p>
<p><span id="more-3585"></span></p>
<p>The G-Bound was recently revealed during the popular annual Tokyo Toy Show. Thanks to its waterproof body and and the four huge inflatable tires, the car can be driven upside down and on almost any kind of surface &#8211; even on the water.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a video clip on the G-Bound in action:</p>
<p><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qoqIrRLETik&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qoqIrRLETik&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>
<p>The car is powered by a rechargble battery pack and the 27MHz remote control lets you move the tires forward and backward individually, making it possible to spin around on one spot. You can also go forward, and then hit back, to flip the car around.</p>

<p>The exact release date for the <a href="http://www.ccp-jp.com/gbound/index.html">G-Bound R/C Car</a> has not yet been conformed, but sales will start in autumn 2009 and the car will cost 12,800 YEN (about $140 USD).</p>

<p>This radio controlled tank fires 6mm BB bullets up to 30 meters (33 yards) and runs on land and in the water, giving you twice the R/C fun for the price of one. Simply push a button and you will transform the toy from a speedy powerboat to an armored tank.</p>
<p><span id="more-1338"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>
With the ability to safely drive across land and water there is now almost nowhere you can&#8217;t go. The tank has also been fitted with a forward facing turret that fires 6mm BB bullets up to 30 metres. The left and right wheels are controlled separately giving greater speed and the ability to turn 360° quickly. At the front are two LED headlights for night assaults and a red light mounted above the turret gives a short warning before firing.

<blockquote><p>
Not only is this the greatest remote controlled fighting machine but it can also carry 4 standard cans on it&#8217;s back. So when your friends need drink supplies, whether it be in the garden, the pool or the ocean, you can deliver them in style.
