Everybody loved the Despicable Me films, right? And everybody is SUPER excited for the Minions movie that's slated for release next summer, right?!
That's what we thought. Well, we've got good news for everybody: there's a brand new toy in town, and he looks suspiciously similar to those little yellow critters you love so much...
Yes, our
Inflatable RC Minion toy is BACK IN STOCK, and he's had a big of a makeover since last time he was here. For one thing, he looks a lot more like his movie counterparts now - who could resist those big brown eyes and that adorably cheeky grin?
But that's not the only improvement, no sir. The best thing about our new minion toy is not how he looks...but how he sounds.
That's right: this is a TALKING minion toy, and he's just itching to say hello to you! He says nine different phrases, all in the original minion voice from the movies. Being a minion, most of what he says is gibberish, but recognisable sayings include "Banana!", "Whaaat?" and "Woohoo!", along with various laughing, kissing, sighing and babbling noises.
Of course, some things don't need to be changed: our minion toy is still super-cute, super-squishy, and very easy to inflate. You can play with him anywhere - indoors or out - and the RC controller allows you to steer him forwards, backwards, left or right. He can perform 360-degree pirouettes, and if he falls down, he'll get right back up again, all by himself!
You may well already know, here at Gadget Inspector, we have recently brought into stock some amazing inflatable remote control devices! These being the Inflatable Remote Control Lightning McQueen - Pump and Play [no longer available], the Disney Plane Inflatable Remote Control Dusty - Pump and Play and the Remote Control Inflatable Despicable Me Minion Dave - Pump and Play. So, to celebrate the fact that we have these awesome inflatable remote control gadgets, we carried out a series of Gadget Inspector Races, the ultimate race to find out which inflatable is the fastest.
Round 1
In the first heat, we raced Lightning Mcqueen and Dusty Crophopper! Things got rather competitive and tense, but in the end Dusty Crophopper managed to get ahead of Lightning Mcqueen and won!
Round 2
In the next round we raced R2D2 against the Despicable Me Minion. The Remote Control Inflatable R2D2 Star Wars Pump and Play is another inflatable device that we have in stock, and has always been a very popular gadget! Who doesn't love Star Wars or R2D2? Anyway, back to the races, it was a tough race as the two competitiors are similar in size and height! However, the Despicable Me Minion did not disappoint, and powered through to take the title!
Round 3
Our final race was therefore between The Despicable Me Minion, and Dusty Crophopper! It was tough and everyone here at Gadget Inspector was on on tender hooks as we eagerly watched to see who would cross the finish line first! The Despicable Me Minion lost his nerve, and Dusty Crophopper took the lead and managed to win the Gadget Inspector races!
The Inflatable Remote Control devices really do make great Christmas presents, for people of all ages! You can see how much fun they are to play with from the videos, everyone here at Gadget Inspector loved bringing out their compeititve sides! Send us your inflatbale races and let us know who wins, we would love to hear from you!
