Everybody knows a retro gamer, and if you need Christmas presents for your favourite retroist then the Tetris Light from Gadget Inspector is perfect.
This official Tetris product is made up of seven brightly-coloured tetrominoes (the blocks that were immortalised in the game). All you have to do is plug the long blue Tetris Light into the mains, and stack the other blocks on top of it – they light up on contact!
So if you’re looking for Christmas presents with a nostalgic appeal, the Tetris Light should serve you well. You can stack the blocks in any way you see fit, making this a bedroom accessory with endless possibilities!
Being as it's the 1st of December tomorrow, we thought we'd give you all a treat to get your festive season off to a flying start. Instead of just doing one Gadget Deal of the Week like usual, we've gone above and beyond to bring you a double gadget deal bonanza - two gadget deals for you to start your weekend with!
Gadget Deal of the Week #1 - Air Swimmers Flying Shark & Flying Nemo
Talk about your flying fish! The Air Swimmers have always been one of Gadget Inspector's most popular products, and now that the Flying Shark and Flying Nemo are just £23.99 each (RRP £39.99), they're sure to get even more popular over the next week. The remote control Air Swimmers make great Christmas presents, so whether you want a ferocious Flying Shark or a colourful Flying Clown Fish, you'd better order yours now to avoid disappointment!
Gadget Deal of the Week #2 - Smartphone Touch Screen Gloves
If you struggle to put down your smartphone, these Touch Screen Gloves will allow you to keep fiddling with your phone even when you're wrapped up warm for winter. The innovative design keeps out the cold while allowing electrical impulses to pass from your fingertips to the screen. You can get Black Touch Screen Gloves or cream-coloured ones instead, and either way they'll make a great gift for your favourite gadget geek this Christmas. The gloves were £9.99, but for the next seven days you can purchase a pair for just £5.39!
These great deals will last until next Friday, when we'll be announcing yet another great gadget deal for you to get excited about. Remember to check back, and until then, happy December!
The Micro Drone Quadrocopter is an amazingly agile remote control helicopter that offers unprecedented stability, superb speed, and an all-around awesome remote control experience. It can even perform 360 degree somersaults at the push of a button! Interested? Well the quadrocopter isn't just a fun remote control toy - there are plenty of other things you can do with it too. Here are the first ten we thought of:
(N.B. Gadget Inspector will not be held responsible for any damage that you, your quadrocopter, or anything else sustains while following the advice of this silly list.)
- Put the micro drone between two slices of bread, serve it to a friend under the pretence of making them a tasty sandwich, and give them a shock by making the drone fly away when they're about to take a bite.
- Place a small action figure on top of the quadrocopter, fly up to a reasonable height, and perform a flip to toss your brave hero into Felix Baumgartner-esque freefall.
- Hover your micro drone as close to your friend's head as you can while simultaneously dodging their increasingly irritated attempts to swat it away.
- Find a decent-sized pond and see if you can make your quadrocopter 'hop' from lily pad to lily pad without getting it wet.
- Fly it into the wall.
- Use some string to tie a £20 note to your micro drone. Leave it in a public place (conceal the drone as best you can) and lie in wait for someone to spot the money. When they try to pick it up, make the drone fly away, cash in tow.
- Wear it as a jaunty and futuristic-looking hat.
- Fit your quadrocopter with some sort of laser-based firearm and use this agile, airborne weapon to TAKE OVER THE WORLD.
- Hold the micro drone above your head and get your friend (if you still have one) to man the controls. All being well, you should take flight; if you don't, it probably means that you need to lose some weight.
- Fly it around like some kind of cool remote control helicopter.

Well, we all knew that the robot uprising couldn't be far away, and now it's finally arrived. Fortunately for the human race, these robots aren't looking to destroy us - they just want to play!
Gadget Inspector's remote control robots make perfect Christmas presents for gadget geeks, especially if they've already got one RC robot for the new one to be friends with. Or, in the case of the Combat Creatures Attacknid [no longer available], another RC robot for it to fight to the death - the stomping spidery brute shoots flying foam discs and comes with detachable armour that springs off when hit.
If that game sounds a little too violent for you, we've another six-legged RC robot who isn't a heavily armoured war machine. CyBugs [no longer available] are creepy-crawly remote control robots that come in a range of colours and scuttle around just like real bugs.
And finally, if you're looking for non-insect remote control robots, you'll love our Remote Control Inflatable R2D2. He's just as lovable as the droid you know and love from the Star Wars films, with added squishiness. He's the perfect RC robot pal for kids and adults alike!
Ah, the smartphone. It's the essential gadget for modern life, and while plenty of people are still using regular old non-smart phones (or 'stupidphones', if you will), it's getting harder and harder to find someone who isn't plugged into the apps and the 3G and all that other stuff.
And for a gadget website like Gadget Inspector, the ubiquity of the smartphone is a godsend because it opens up a whole new world of gadgets for us to get our hands on. We're seldom short on smartphone accessories, and whether you want a cool iPhone case or an RC Helicopter that you steer with your smartphone, Gadget Inspector will provide. We've got a great range of stuff for your smartphone, including a pair of Touch Screen Gloves that will keep you playing right through winter and a cushioned Smartphone Wedge that will prop up your device in style.
Whether you're an Android addict or an iPhone enthusiast, your smartphone will never be short of an accessory or two when you stick with Gadget Inspector.
