Festo-style flying fish coming out as toys

If you admired Festo's lovely RC airfish but didn't have a zillion dollars to spend on one, no fear: you'll soon be able to buy a toy version, called AirSwimmers. Just begging to be made autonomous! A good use for your old Blimpduino boards...

I want a flying shark. : )

According to one source, "These should be available July 2011 at a retail of $39.99"

Another source stated a May release date.

Opening day of fishing season is the third Saturday in April for those who want a submarine version. LOL
