Check this thing out! Some company called Corgi International won the 2008 ToyAward for this thing. I wish I knew more about this. It's a pretty neat concept IMO. Real cars are still researching and fooling around with hydrogen fuel cells to possibly replace regular gas and these guys are trying to figure out how to stick it in a toy.

NUREMBERG, Germany, February 7 -- Corgi International, one of the leading listed toy manufacturers worldwide, today announced that its H2Go hydrogen-powered RC car has won the 2008 ToyAward in the Electronics & Technology category. A total of 24 products in eight categories were nominated for the innovation award. In each of the categories, one innovative product was selected as a winner of the 2008 ToyAward. Michael Cookson, chief executive officer of Corgi International, accepted the award in the presence of the Bavarian Minister-President Dr. Günther Beckstein.

"We are delighted about the great trust placed in our H2Go. The H2Go is not just a radio-controlled car featuring new technology but also a symbol of the toy industry's impending adjustment to a future powered by clean energy," said Michael Cookson.

They have a few versions from 99 to 150. Looks fun for about 5 minutes but a really cool idea!

I'm a technology nerd. The science behind it would fascinate me more than driving it around the house, scaring the cat.
