Shopping for an avid photographer this Christmas? Here are five gift suggestions that are guaranteed to put smiles on snap-happy faces! Click on the images to learn more about each product.
Camera Lens Cup
Camera Lens Mug - £14.99
Is your favourite photographer a bit of a caffeine addict? Or perhaps they're more of a tea drinker? Either way, they're sure to appreciate this mug, which looks exactly like a camera lens!

Bonus Feature: The mug comes with a 'lens cap' that can either be used as a coaster or (see image above) as a handy biscuit holder!
Photobox - Retro Camera Tin
If your photographer friend still holds a candle for proper, physical photographs, this nifty box will make the perfect place to store those snaps. The sturdy 'Photobox' tin ensures that those cherished photos of magic moments don't get damaged!

Bonus Feature: No photos to store? No problem - the Photobox can also be used as a biscuit tin!


Micro drone quadcopter with camera></a></div><div style=

Micro Drone Quadcopter with Camera - £69.99 (or £45.99 without camera)
The Micro Drone was one of our best-sellers anyway, but the new  version - with an attachable camera - could well be the coolest product on our whole site! If your camera-toting pal wants to get some aerial shots, this could be the way to go; just make sure you order it with the camera!

Bonus Feature: The camera can take videos as well as still photographs!
Camera Lens Shot Glass
These smaller versions of the Camera Lens Mug (see above) allow you to bring a little bit of photomania into your big nights out! Each glass holds 50ml, i.e. a double!

Bonus Feature: These cute little lens cups aren't just for alcohol. They're also ideal for shots of espresso!

Another present that's perfect for people who still like physical photographs. This clock has photo frames instead of numbers, which means that your pal can choose 12 of his/her favourite pictures and use them to decorate the face of the clock!

Bonus Feature: Also available in black!

If you're a fan of Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, you'll already know how important it is to stay classy. Christmas, with all the chocolate and gravy and booze, is a pretty dangerous time for a person's dignity - it's that one time of the year when classiness is really at premium.

With this in mind, here are five top tips for keeping your Christmas classy on a level that Ron Burgundy himself would be proud of. Scroll to the bottom for an awesome Anchorman-themed offer!

  • Suit up! Whether you're young or old, male or female, a fitted suit always looks good, and Christmastime is no exception. Still, it is a special time of year, so why not go for a nice festive design like this one?
OppoSuits: Xmas Tree Suit

  • Give more than you expect to receive. The classiest way to do Christmas? Stop thinking about your own loot and really go big on everybody else's gifts. Remember: it's a time for giving, not receiving!

  • Don't act like you're not impressed. Similarly, when you're opening your own presents, let the people around you know that their gifts are appreciated. Make them feel good about their efforts (even if the gift itself is kind of naff - remember, it's the thought that counts!)
  • Go easy on the booze. We all like a nice scotchy scotch scotch - particularly during the holiday season - but it's important to know your limit. Once you've got achieved that warm Yuletide glow, you might want to think about reining it in; after all, it'd be a shame to throw up the best meal of the year. Speaking of which...

  • Eat the whole wheel of cheese. The rule of moderation doesn't apply to Christmas dinner as it does to Christmas drinks. Somebody put a whole lot of work into that roast dinner, so be sure to show your appreciation by eating until you look like a blueberry.
Now, we like to practice the generosity that we preach, and we did promise you guys an Anchorman-themed offer back up at the beginning of this blog, so here:
Anchorman Wallet and Moustache Set
That is an official Anchorman moustache and wallet set. It usually costs £14.99, but if you enter the code STAYCLASSY at the checkout, you'll get it for just £13.99. As part of a completely separate deal, you'll also get a FREE blink time watch - we bet Ron Burgundy would have worn one of those, too, had they been around in the '70s.

Remember - enter the code 'STAYCLASSY' at the checkout for your £1 discount!
Let's hear it for slobs, everbody! We all know one, and if you somehow don't have a lazy-yet-lovable oaf in your life, then frankly, you're missing out. If nothing else, having a slobby friend serves to make you feel much better about yourself.
Now, as we may already have mentioned a couple of times, Christmas is just around the corner - this means that you need gifts for all the people you hold dear, and your favourite slob is no exception. Here are 3 great gift ideas that are sure to put a smile on the face of whichever slob you're buying for:

Bladez Transporter - RC Helicopter
If there's one thing that slobs really hate, it's getting up. Whether they're lying in bed or sat on the sofa, slobs despise anything that forces them to, y'know, move.

That's why the Bladez Transporter is such an awesome slob gift. It has a little winch attached to it, which means that your slob can pilot the helicopter across the room, pick up whatever it is they need*, and fly it back across the room without even getting up. Perfect!

*As long as the item in question weighs 10g or less and has something that the winch can latch onto.

Slobs crave comfort above all else, and now that winter is on its way, your #1 slob is going to find it more and more difficult to get snug 'n' cosy. Why not lend a hand by giving them one of our festive onesies? One reviewer called her onesie "the comfiest thing I own" - that's a recommendation if ever we heard one!

Bonus slob points if your slob can go the entire holiday season without taking the onesie off.

Clocky - The Running & Jumping Alarm Clock
Even the world's leading slobs have to get out of bed occasionally. At this time of year, though, leaving the bed is easier said than done - the duvet is so warm, and everything else is so cold...

That's where Clocky comes in. He's the alarm clock that won't take 'no' for an answer, and if you dare to press 'Snooze', he'll go utterly bananas, running away from you and beeping madly until you have no choice but to jump out of bed and chase him around the room. An extreme measure, perhaps, but depending on just how slobby your friend is, it may be the only measure that works!
It seems like just about everyone owns a smartphone nowadays. 10 million people bought the iPhone 6 when it came out in September, and even that gargantuan figure is peanuts compared to the number of people who own Androids, Galaxies, Blackberries, Nokias, and so forth. There's no doubt about it: we are the smartphone generation, and our mobiles are just as dear to us as Benny Goodman was to our parents and grandparents.

And, with Christmas coming up, this universal obsession with all things smartphone ensures that you've got a whole bunch of great gift ideas right at your fingertips. It doesn't matter who you're shopping for, because everybody - old and young, male and femal - has a smartphone nowadays, and each of those smartphones has a whole arsenal of accessories and add-ons to go with it.

Don't know what we're talking about? Here are some choice cuts from our own Smartphone Accessories section, ranging from the relatively mundane to the utterly amazing...

We've got loads of great Batman gifts for you to choose from!

Bat logo

Batman has been through almost as many regenerations as Doctor Who. Between Adam West's campy performances in the '60s TV series and Christian Bale's throat-ruining turn in Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy, we've almost lost track of all the actors who have played The Caped Crusader - it's arguably one of the biggest roles in cinema.

Now, everybody has their own favourite Bat, but whether you prefer Michael Keaton's intensity or George Clooney's bat-nipples, we're pretty confident that you'll love our vast collection of Batman goodies. We've got all sorts of essential items for avid Batfans, and with Christmas just around the corner, we thought that now would be a good time to show them off.

Here, then, are five awesome gift ideas for the Bat-lover in your life:

Batman (Dark Knight) Bi-Folding Boxed Wallet

Batman Wallet
£14.99 (includes a free watch!)

Batman (The Dark Knight) Stoneware Bowl

Batman (The Dark Knight) Adult Apron

A selection of our most unique items

We've got tonnes of cool stuff here at Gadget Inspector, and our variety of gifts and toys is so vast that sometimes it's hard to know where to begin. We've chosen some of our favourite products to get you started, so sit back and let us impress you. Rest assured that this is just the tip of the cool stuff iceberg; we think that these unique items will have you itching to see more.

Digital Coin Counting Money Jar

This little gizmo is smarter than the average piggy bank. It keeps track of how much you've saved, displaying your running total on the bright LCD screen, so you'll know at a glance how close you are to affording all that cool stuff you want. If you're always finding loose change around the house, this coin jar is the perfect way to get organised.


RC Battle Tanks

The next stop on our cool stuff tour is this twin pack of badass battle tanks. These chunky remote control bruisers are great for settling arguments - you and your friend can just grab a controller each and unleash hell. The tanks have rotating turrets, flashing lights, and a rather clever infra-red system that knows when your opponent has scored a hit. Don't let them beat you!


Inflatable iMusic Chair

Rounding off our trio of unique items is this brilliant inflatable chair. It's super comfortable, and it has a pair of built-in speakers so that you can relax with all of your favourite bands. The 3.5mm jack fits most audio sources, so grab your MP3 player and let your worries drift away as you sink into the chair...

As we said earlier, this is just a small portion of our cool stuff catalogue - we've got loads of other unique items that are just wawiting to be discovered. So go discover them, you cool stuff crusader you!

Our most unique items yet!

Say hello to Space Rails, perhaps the most unique items we stock and certainly one of the more original toys we've ever seen!

They look complicated, but the idea behind them is actually quite simple: they're rollercoasters. Little rollercoasters for steel balls. The balls go up the little motorised elevator, and when they get to the top they go down the rails, navigating all sorts of twists, turns, loops on their way to the bottom. You don't even have to pick them up at the end, because once they've gone down the coaster, they'll end up back in the elevator, ready for another go!

These unique items are great fun for adults and children alike; all will be mesmerised by the ball's death-defying journey. We've got a couple of Space Rails for you to get your hands on (one of which glows in the dark!) and we might well be getting some more of these unique items in soon, so watch this space! 

All sorts of outfits for any occasion!

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

It's been 35 years since the first Star Wars movie crashed into cinemas, and the world has been obsessed ever since. Characters like Darth Vader and Han Solo have become enormous popcultural icons, and words like 'Jedi', 'lightsaber' and 'sith' have entered common usage. In fact, over 390,000 people in England and Wales stated their religion as 'Jedi' in the 2001 national census, which means that Jediism is the fourth largest religion in the country.

All of which suggests that Star Wars fever is alive and well. We've got a great collection of Star Wars stuff for aspiring Jedis, so if you've always wanted to wield a lightsaber or wear your hair in Princess Leia buns, here's your chance.

We've got loads of great Star Wars stuff here at Gadget Inspector. From a lightsaber bottle opener to tins of R2-D2 mints, there's something for everyone. We've also got a selection of Star Wars costumes, so if you fancy being Darth Vader or Obi-Wan Kenobi for your next fancy dress party, we'll sort you out.

Our range of Star Wars stuff is full of great gift ideas for avid Star Wars geeks. Check out our Star Wars range now, and may the force be with you!

Taking iPhone accessories to the next level!

When you think of iPhone accessories, you're probably thinking of protective cases, a pair of earphones, and maybe a charger.

But that's not the sort of iPhone accessories we're dealing with here. Perhaps 'iPhone toys' is a more appropriate phrase, because that's exactly what these are - toys that work alongside your device to provide you with hours of iPhone or iPod fun!

So what iPhone toys can we offer you? Well check out this awesome remote control car [no longer available] for starters - your iPhone is the controller, and it's pretty darned intuitve. Same goes for this remote control helicopter, which of course has the added bonus of being able to take to the skies.

And then there's the AppBlaster, the last word in iPod fun. This interactive gaming gun plugs into your device and uses its camera to fill the world around you with dangerous space aliens. Shoot 'em down to save the Earth!

So there you have it: The Most Entertaining iPhone Accessories Around. iPhones are so much more than just phones, and Gadgets Inspector has found some pretty awesome ways to unleash their potential. Check out our brilliant iPhone Toys now.
