There are lots of happy faces here at Gadget Inspector HQ this afternoon, and that's because the eagerly-awaited Remote Controlled Inflatable R2D2 toy has finally arrived!

R2D2 is great fun no matter how old you are. He's easy to control, and if he gets knocked over, he'll get right back up again all by himself! He'd make a great Christmas present, sure, but why wait until December to unwrap this delightful droid? Order one  now and let the fun begin straight away!

We have a VERY limited stock of Remote Controlled Inflatable R2D2 toys, so orders yours now to avoid disappointment. They're bound to be a massive hit, and our supply won't last long, so don't hang about - order your own inflatable robot friend today!

Just as R2D2 himself was ever-present throughout the Star Wars saga, R2D2 gadgets have always been an important part of our range here at Gadget Inspector. We've done an R2D2 Safe, an R2D2 iPhone case, and even R2D2 mints, but our newest gadget, the Remote Controlled Inflatable R2D2, might just be the best R2D2 gadget of all.

Who didn't love R2D2? The lovable droid wouldn't have been included in all six Star Wars movies if the audiences weren't going gaga for him, and everything about that cute little robot, from his cool blue and white look to the high-pitched beeps that he uses to communicate, remains hugely iconic. That's why we thought it would be great to give you the chance to take R2D2 home with you in the form of your very own RC robot toy! Gadget Inspector's inflatable R2D2 is fun for kids and adults alike, so whether you're new to the Star Wars universe or still fondly remembering that life-changing trip to the cinema in 1977, having an inflatable RC robot to play with will make you feel like you really are in a galaxy far, far away!

The inflatable R2D2 is more that just an RC toy; he's an RC robot, with all sorts of cool features!

• The inflatable R2D2 has a super durable body, so you'll be playing with him for a long time to come!
• 360-degree manoeuvrability means your RC robot can go forwards, backwards, left and right.
• The RC robot comes with a built-in self-righting system, so every time your inflatable R2D2 gets knocked down, he'll get right back up again all on his own!
• Tri-band operation allows you and two friends to get an inflatable R2D2 each and have a three-way RC robot race!

That's just a handful of the reasons why we love our inflatable R2D2 so much. He's the best friend a Star Wars fan could ask for, so grab your RC robot today and kick your playtime into hyperspace!

Our Micro Drone Quadrocopter takes remote control fun to a whole new level!

If you’ve already got yourself a brilliant RC Helicopter from Gadget Inspector, and you’ve more or less mastered that, then perhaps it’s time to take your remote control experience to the next level. The brand new Micro Drone Quadrocopter is a huge leap forward for remote control technology, and here’s why:

• The quadrocopter boasts a four-blade, quad-rotor design that gives it unprecedented stability in the air. It also has a rather clever self-stabilising system, so your quadrocopter will rule the skies even when it’s windy!
• Intuitive 4-channel controls make the quadrocopter the smoothest ride you’ve ever piloted! The gyroscopic steering system allows you to fly your quadrocopter forwards, backwards, up, down, left and right, and the sprawling 120-metre range allows your remote control aircraft to scale heights you could only dream of before.
• Best of all, the quadrocopter can perform death-defying stunts at the push of a button. The remote control boffins who built the quadrocopter included an algorithm that allows it to do a 360-degree flips in mid-air. Just press the stunt button on the remote control handset, and your quadrocopter will soon be somersaulting around the sky like nobody’s business.  

So if you want an RC helicopter with a bit of bite, the quadrocopter really is the only way to go. Still, this is cutting-edge stuff, so if you don’t think you’re ready for the quadrocopter just yet then perhaps you should start with one of our other Remote Control Helicopters first.

Yet more new gadgets for our ever-growing range!

Gadget Inspector is the website just keeps on giving. Of late, it seems like barely a day goes by without a couple of new gadgets appearing on the home page, and we appreciate how hard it can be to keep up with all the fun stuff that we’re bringing in. So think of this as a kind of Gadget Inspector digest – a snapshot of the best new gadgets we’ve acquired over the last few weeks.

Let’s start with the 1-Up Muffin Mould - video gamers of a certain vintage are sure to love these wacky cake cases, especially if they’ve got a bit of a sweet tooth. Then there’s this USB Mug Warmer, which is perfect for caffeine addicts who hate cold coffee. Just plug it into your USB port and let it warm your mug up while you enjoy the fact that it’s shaped like a scrummy jumbo-sized cookie.

And being as Halloween is just around the corner, we couldn’t ignore this magnificently macabre Skull Ice Bucket. It’s just the thing for keeping your Halloween hooch nice and chilled, and some ghoulish person has gone to some lengths to ensure that it’s exactly the same size and shape as a real human skull. How pleasant.

That’s just the tip of the skull-shaped iceberg. There’s loads more fun stuff to be found on the Gadget Inspector website, including this brain-tickling Word Search Shower Curtain and the party rockin’ Mighty Boom Ball [no longer available], so keep your eyes peeled and you’ll have all sorts of new gadgets to gawk at before you know it.

Grab these awesome lolly sticks and pretend it's still summer!

Making homemade ice lollies is always a thrill, and that goes for children and adults alike. We love the fun of choosing what ingredients to use...the sense of anticipation as we add the lolly sticks and put them in to freeze...and the astonishment when we take them out and, by the mysterious magic of the fridge-freezer, they've turned into ice lollies. It's fun for all the family.

It's September now, of course, and you might well think that you and the kids have missed your chance for some fruity frozen fun. Think again! These Lolly Men lolly sticks are yet another fantastic addition to our catalogue, and making ice lollies with them is great fun no matter what time of year it is!

So crank up the thermostat, put on your flip-flops, and pretend it's still the middle of July. A few delicious ice lollies will make even the depths of winter seem summery, and these adorable lolly sticks are the perfect way of bringing your ice lollies to life!
