After the resounding success of Dave, our inflatable RC Despicable Me Minion last Christmas (we completely sold out time and time again!) - we've been inundated with questions about when we're going to get more of the little guy back in stock. Great news - he's back! We've finally got a new shipment of these hilarious inflatable little guys...just in time for Christmas! 

If your little one loves Despicable Me then this large inflatable RC Minion is the perfect Christmas gift for them. Pump and Play Dave is easy to steer and manouver and his big googly eyes make him one seriously adorable character that any child would love to see under their tree this Christmas. 

 

 

Here are some of his vital stats:

  • He's more than 2ft (60cm) tall
  • He moves backwards, forwards, left or right 
  • He can spin clockwise or anti-clockwise 
  • He's got a 27mhz radio control
  • The pump is included! 

He needs 4x AA batterfies to function and the handset runs on 1 x 9V battery which is included. Our Dave is an officially licensed product. Despicable Me & Despicable Me 2 are trademarks of Universal Pictures. 

So what are you waiting for? Get your mitts on our Despicable Me RC Inflatable Dave Minion while stocks last! 

School stuff from Gadget Inspector

If your kids haven't already gone back to school, well, don't worry - it won't be long now! In the meantime, here are 4 awesome school accessories from the Gadget Inspector website:

DIY Calculator

Why send you son or daughter into school with the same boring calculator as everyone else? This DIY Calculator allows the owner to decorate and doodle on it as they please - they can even write the numbers on in their own unique style!

 

Vitapens Highlighters

Highlighters always come in handy, no matter what subjects you're taking or which exams you're studying for. These cool highlighter pens are shaped like vitamin pills, and you get loads of different colours in the tub.

 

Slap-It-On Watch

Remember slap bracelets? They were all the rage in the '90s - you just slapped them on your wrist, and by some black magic, they curled around your arm to form a gaudy fashion accessory. The 'Slap-It-On' Watch follows the same basic principle, and it tells the time, too - no more losing track of time and showing up late to Geography!

 

Retro Superman Bag

Every pupil needs a bag, of course (for books and pens and bits of lint), and you'll struggle to find a more striking school bag than this spectacular Superman design. Perfect for comic book fans!

Here are five fun ways to test your skills as an RC helicopter pilot. Please note that Gadget Inspector will not be held responsible for any damage caused while attempting these challenges!

 

Challenge #1: Thru the Window

Open your ground floor window and your first floor window. Place your chopper on the ground floor windowsill. Standing in front of the house, attempt to fly the helicopter out of the lower window, up the face of the house, and in through the top window. Alternatively, ask the people opposite you to open their bedroom window and fly your helicopter across the street!

 

Challenge #2: Treetop Slalom

Find a good tree with a lots of criss-crossing branches. Fly your copter up through the branches and attempt to reach the top of the tree without bumping into any bark!

 

Challenge #3: Over the Water

Go to a lake or, failing that, run a bath. Fly your helicopter over the water, and see how close you can get to the surface without falling in! Can you skim your chopper across the water?

 

Challenge #4: Cargo Drop

This one is specifically for the Bladez Transporter. See, the transporter has an adjustable winch that can be raised and lowered in-flight. It also comes with a cargo basket - to complete this challenge, you must successfully pick up the basket using the winch, carry it across the room, and safely deliver your cargo without dropping it.

 

Challenge #5: The Floor is Made of Lava

Clear a space in your living room. Dot some cushions around the floor (or anything that could serve as a 'landing pad'). The floor is now made of lava - you must successfully pilot your helicopter from one side of the room to the other, landing on each cushion in turn without ever touching the floor itself.
