rc%20robot%20shark_edited-1.jpg

If you're looking to spice up your next pool party by scaring your hapless guests, the R/C Robot Shark might just do the trick. Sneak up to the edge of the pool and slip this little guy in and you'll instantly drive all of your swimmers to the other end. The R/C Shark is 2 to 3 feet long and has a full range of motion to simulate the swimming motion of a real shark. The tail swings side to side while the shark makes its way through the water, and can move in any direction while in the water, even directly backwards. The robot shark can also dive to depths of up to 9 feet, ready to pounce on any unsuspecting prey that might jump into the pool.

The remote control for the robot shark is also submersible, so if you're looking to go swimming with the sharks rather than terrorize other people with it, you can hop in the pool and play. The shark functions up to 40 feet away from the remote control, but you only get a dismal 15 minutes of play time with the included battery pack before having to deal with a one-hour recharge. An additional battery pack is available for an extra $24.95, and the R/C Robot Shark itself is available for $99.95. When you place your order, specify a red or blue shark.
