No, we're not sure why Captain America looks so much shorter than the others either. Still, no need to dwell on that bit of bafflement, because we come bearing good news! We've just added an array of awesome Avengers costumes to the Gadget Inspector site, which is great news for any comic book and/or movie fans with costume parties coming up! We're told there's some sort of big fancy dress occasion pencilled in towards the end of October, for starters...

• Our Thor costume is ideal for anyone who's interested in Greek mythology, the comic books that were derived from those myths, and the blockbuster movies that were based on those comics. We can't provide the hammer, unfortunately, and nor do we have the necessary licence to sell you the power over lightning. We can give you muscles, though; big foam muscles that will make you look just like Chris Hemsworth.
• Then we have our Iron Man costume - we hope red is your colour! If you loved watching Robert Downey Jr. zooming around while AC/DC played in the background, you'll go nuts for this outfit; it's second only to the Iron Man suit built by Tony Stark himself.
• We all get angry sometimes, but very few of us have experienced the phenomenon known as 'hulking'. If you want that to happen, your best bet is our Hulk costume - not unlike the Thor outfit, it comes with a padded muscle chest that might convince people you go to the gym every so often.
• And finally, there's our Captain America costume. Perhaps not anyone's first choice (all the cool kids want to be Iron Man, surely?) but his film was the best and that's why he still has a place in our hearts.

Whether you just need your own costume or a group costume idea that you can tackle with a few friends, our Avengers costumes truly are awesome. Don't forget to order yours in time for Halloween!

Science may not seem like the most outgoing of disciplines, but take it from us - a science party is always a killer party! Maybe it's because they're eager to cut loose after being hunkered down in the lab all day, or maybe the sceintific mind is genetically predisposed to partying, but whatever the reason, scientists know just as much about enjoying themselves as they do about...well, everything else.

But even if you don't have any scientist friends, you can still throw a smashing science party. We've got some brilliant party acccessories here at Gadget Inspector that we think would be perfect for a science-themed shindig. These terrific Test Tube Shots [no longer available] for example, will give you a fantastic way to serve up some drinks at your science party, as will the somewhat more colourful Test Tube Shooters. You can measure out your drinks with more precision than ever!

Of course, we've got sciencey stuff that isn't related to drinking - the nifty Newton's Cradle is one example, demonstrating the laws of motion in a strangely appealing way that everyone can enjoy. Still, if it's a science party you're throwing, our super-scientific drinking accessories are all you'll need. It's time to don your lab coat, grab your goggles, and get ready for the best experiment ever!
