All the sensory delights of real candles, without the errant wax, smoke & naked flames. This pair of lamps are shaped like pillar candles (often seen in romantic films as the camera pans away from the rude bit) & actually made from REAL WAX that emits a delicious vanilla fragrance. The clever electronic trickery inside causes the light to flicker & stutter as if it were a real flame, & a control turns the candles on or off remotely (also works individually if the candles are placed a couple of metres apart). ...

A very impressive, miniature, remote control helicopter which is especially suited to indoor flying as demonstrated by our numerous test flights in the office. Ultralight & robust enough to take the inevitable crashing & plummeting, this zippy little machine is a gadget lover's dream. The helicopter is charged by the base unit & operates on a choice of three channels to avoid interference. Also it has a 3-way precision controller, adjustable trim control & an internal gyroscope for extra flight stability. In no time at all you'll be fully in control & then the sky's the limit! ...

Get ready for high-flying action! Our fantastic model helicopter is great for complex sorties throughout the house, or simply for buzzing around your sister's head. This design features 4-channel control for immediate change of direction, lift & speed. A motion-sensitive control format can optionally be activated: tilt the handset & the helicopter will likewise change direction, so you can literally lean into corners & reach for the skies! Cool features using the latest model technology such as the contra-rotating rotor blades & multi-channel control system allow you to perform precision manoeuvres. The combination of an internal gyro & an in-flight adjustable trim stops the aircraft from tipping forward, to keep it perfectly balanced for fast & responsive flight. Powered prior to flying from the handset, reducing weight along with a light metal frame & strong but flexible composite materials, for maximum durability & control. Thirty minutes charging provides seven minutes of flight, & the helicopter comes with a spare set of rotor blades. ...

Enthusiasm for this disc shooting robot has gone through the roof here at Hawkin HQ! Operating the robot from the remote control is easy & grasped in an instant, so that it's simple to make it move around & do its stuff. It is also programmable from the chest panel ' Master, I await your command' is stated in a suitably sober robotic voice
- give a list of commands, press 'go' & it will do them in sequence as you have requested. Functions include 'dance', 'turn', 'raise gun', & our favourite, 'fire disc'. With a stack of foam discs loaded inside, programme the robot to take aim on unsuspecting victims before powerfully & rapidly firing discs at your target
- brilliant! Whilst performing the functions it will announce phrases such as 'you are under arrest' & 'identify yourself', & the voice is spot on too, commanding & officious. We love it & we are absolutely certain you will too!

A botanical curiosity found in many desert areas. It comes in dehydrated form, looking not unlike an old bird's-nest. When it is placed in water, it springs to life transformed within a few hours to a verdant fern-like plant. If it is allowed to dry out it returns to its original apparently-dead state. This process can be repeated indefinitely even after it has been transplanted into soil. ...

Anyone who remembers Pac-Man, an icon of 80s popular culture, is sure to appreciate this retro-style mug. The heat sensitive characters only reveal themselves when the mug is hot, coming to life in vibrant colours & if they start to fade
