Retro is righteous!

We’re always on the lookout for cool new gadgets here at Gadget Inspector, but it doesn’t have to be new to be cool! We’ve got a bunch of great retro gadgets available too, many of which you’ll probably remember from your childhood!

Still, even if you were born too late to know what this Cassette Tape USB Hub [no longer available] is based on, you’ll find plenty to love in our retro gadgets range. Like Arcadie, which combines modern technology with retro ideas to turn your smartphone into an arcade games machine. Or this Pixel Clock, which presumably looks exactly like the one on Pac-Man’s kitchen wall.

And then there’s the king of retro gadgets, the Tetris Light. We’re hoping that you’ll know what Tetris is no matter how young you are – it’ a worldwide sensation even today, and this colourful bedroom accessory will make a great gift for any Tetris addict.

Our retro gadgets may be old-fashioned, but that doesn’t make them any less brilliant! Grab one today, and  put a bit of the past back in your life!

If you're lucky enough to live in the wonderful city of Cardiff, there's a chance you'll have seen this festively-attired chap peddling around the bay last week:

Handsome, ain't he? And if you're a fan of that sleek looking penny farthing bike he's got his hands on, we've got some good news: you can get your hands on one too!

The Ammaco Penny Farthing is a fantastically fun bike that's sure to make you stand out from the crowd. You probably won't stand out as much as the guy wearing the elf costume, but in any other crowd, all eyes will be on your and your fab penny farthing bike.

The penny farthing is just as safe, sturdy and stable as any modern bicycle, but the big wheel/little wheel combo gives it a quirky edge that's guaranteed to have all other cyclists green with envy. Get yours today!

The smartphone addict is everywhere in modern society. Just look around - you'll see smartphone addicts on trains, in cafés, maybe even in your own home!

Our gadget website is packed with R2D2 gadgets. Slowly but surely they've been piling up, and now we've got more R2D2 gadgets than we know what to do with.

Gadget Inspector's obsession with the Star Wars franchise is well-documented, but as much as we love Han, Luke, Leia and the others, R2 will always be our favourite character. Just look at him - how could anyone resist the cute little guy?

So do forgive the site if it's a little heavy on the R2D2 gadgets. They are all awesome, mind - from the Inflatable Remote Control R2D2 robot to the brand new R2D2 Cookie Jar, we've got everything the modern R2 addict could ask for.
