In love with Japanese culture? Then you’ll enjoy this abomination of their ancient ceremonial martial art with these RC Battling Sumo Wrestlers.
ThinkGeek has a variety of compelling toys and gadgets and one of the more unusual toys is the R/C Battling Sumos.
Once you get your Sumo wrestlers, inflate those suckers and get ready to battle them against each other all night. They each sport different colors, in red and blue, respectively. The wrestlers come with two controllers that sport two buttons – one moves the wrestler forward, the other moves him backward. And just when the action gets a bit dull, the wrestlers will shout "Hakke-yoi" and (my favorite) "Nokotta" at each other just as a Sumo referee would in real life. But if their voices get a little annoying, you can easily change it with the flip of a switch.
In order to power these behemoths, you will need two 9V batteries (one per controller), and eight AA batteries (four per wrestler). Although batteries may take away from the greatness of the sport, don’t let it dissuade you from picking these up now for $39.95.
