G-DOG HPI : G-Dog: Bender’s Best Friend!

The Japanese company hpi, the one responsible for the G-ROBOTS GR-001, this month will release the G-Dog, a robotic dog using the same components. 
My robot knowledge and the information coming from hpi is limited, but as I understand the G-Dog is remote controlled and allows the user to do some pretty nifty tricks.

Have a look here at a short video (WMV).

The G-Dog will cost around 550€, with a size of 375 x 135 x 90mm and weight of 570g.
