The latest in the current craze for micro radio controlled toys is the Konami Combat DigiQ tank set. The set comprises two tanks and controllers, but the interesting thing is that they can fight each other using dinky little laser guns. [via gizmodo]

This looks like the start of a smart toy fightback against the rising dominance of games consoles. Take a look also at the voice activated micro r/c car featured here.

Apparently the other fascinating thing is that these toys are increasingly being sold via spam rather than simply through retail and mail order. Spamfomania eh?
