Although rabid dogs in this country are rare, it is always worth being prepared. Then, if you should stumble across an afflicted animal, you won’t have to rely on throwing a stick as a means of distraction (which, you might like to know, won’t work). Instead, we recommend the Fetch a Bubble Machine. Research shows dogs will spend hours chasing bubbles - indeed, the Fetch a Bubble Machine was developed after the brains behind it saw a TV series on canine behaviour proving this very point. JobsLink

The Fetch a Bubble Machine works like this: as you can see, the machine’s bubble wands rotate through a full 13 revolutions, firing off a frenzy of bubbles - up to one thousand per minute. Better still, the bubbles are chicken-scented. Which means they are dog magnets. Ergo, should you need to distract a rabid dog - or an overexcited domestic pooch - simply switch the machine on, pour in the solution, and swiftly make your escape. South Yorkshire Jobs

How Jaws 3D impressed the britches off cinemagoers of recent times, just as previous efforts at 3D wowed those American johnnies in the cinemas of the 1950s. Back then, 3D was new, fresh and ever-so-slightly other-worldly. Now, in these days of advanced holographic techniques, 3D cinema, with its coloured spectacles, seems a touch antiquated.

But stop. Now you can bring the nostalgic magic of those three dimensional trips to picture house to life in your own drawing room, with the help of this 3D drawing kit. It takes a set of familiar principles and makes them accessible to the man in the street with a set of stereoscopic drawing devices, coloured pencils and those trademark glasses.

Full instructions will guide you to create artworks of stereoscopic greatness, as your own handiwork appears to leap off the page in front of you. Tony Hart, Art Attack, Smarteenies and the rest can all eat their 2D hearts out. How terribly spiffing that would be.

Then, having conquered the world of three dimensional entertainment, all that’s left is the invention of holographic projection television and your mission will be complete. Off you go, then.

 Heaven preserve us from the old ball and chain. If you’re not au fait with the linguistic delights of contemporary urban patois, me old chinas, then let allow us to illuminate the proceedings. A ball and chain is not only a physical restraint device, but also a pejorative term for one’s significant other. That’s your wife or girlfriend, husband or boyfriend, if we must spell it out. So it’s entirely appropriate that someone, presumably in a stable, loving relationship, should invent the perfect gift for the perfect couple. This matching ‘His and Hers’ keyring set in shiny but solid metal has a durability that many modern relationships lack, able to withstand all manner of rigours.

Naturally, we blame the parents. Two engraved balls marked, respectively, ‘his’ and ‘hers’ indicate the owners’ identities. Meanwhile, a single sturdy handcuff on each has been designed to keep keys in complete safety, being unlocked only by a tiny catch on the side. A gift such as this may require some explanation. Hence, being part of the jape is a pre-requisite. Not to mention an understanding other half, even if he is a complete love rat.

Features

• Tongue in cheek required
• Nagging girlfriend / cheating boyfriend not included

Specification

• Dimensions: Height: 2.0cm Width: 8.0cm Depth: 2.0cm

 Losing a stuffed toy can be a heartbreaking. An esteemed colleague here at gadgetshop HQ lost his treasured Monkey from the ITV Digital tv ads and practically couldn’t speak for a week. Now there is an alternative if this fate should befall you. Blue is the upfront, out-there lead singer (and therefore frontman) of the C’mons, the Barcelona ‘band’ that so epitomised the spirit and style of a certain small car that they were selected to appear in its recent set of TV ads.

Like all frontmen, Blue has a certain confident swagger. But just give this soft cuddly toy a squeeze and you’ll hear him utter the inimitable phrase ‘C’mon!’ in his own unique style. Blue works as a freelance photographer and says his perfect morning is “waking up with a beautiful woman, her scent mixed with sunlight.” And we couldn’t put it better ourselves, frankly.

There are five quirky yet strangely irresistible C’mons to choose from - Cherrie (guitars), Red (bass), Moo (piano/keyboard), Blue (frontman and lead singer) and White (drums), each a faithful replica of the characters from the TV ads, and each equally idiosyncratic. Buy one and pop it at the end of your bed, two for the parcel shelf of your Corsa, or all five and strap ‘em in the back. The choice is yours - just don’t expect them to behave.

Features

• Squeeze and he will utter the inimitable phrase ‘c’mon!’

• Dimensions: Height: 25.0cm Width: 12.0cm Depth: 5.0cm

 You may wish to recall the legendary Aesop’s fable about the Tortoise and the Hare at this point. In the race between them, the hare rushed off, getting into all manner of japes and scrapes, and, thinking himself assured of victory, was blas? to say the least. Meanwhile, the tortoise plodded on. And, of course, slow but steady won the race. So it is in life, apparently, as anyone who has done a long distance drive will tell you. Stopping for that ‘petrol and pee’ break seriously slows you down. Now, these Turbo Tortoises may change your view, or confirm it. For they’re scarcely about to challenge Lewis Hamilton in his supercharged McLaren Mercedes. But it’s their sheer dogged determination that appeals to us here in the lab at gadgetshop HQ. There’s something truly indomitable about their spirit. And we like it, whatever it is.

The best way to enjoy the antic of these half-shelled speed freaks is to do what comes naturally. Simply wind them up and let them go. Hilarious. With two, there’s double the trouble. They’re simply cute. And simply perfect for young gadgetshoppers.

Now here’s a gadget that has taken on the status of an icon. And because there’s nothing quite like seeing a unique 3D impression of your face, it’s just the job to break the ice and get people talking. And the world-famous PinPressions system from PinArt is the hum-dinger of a gizmo to make it all possible. To make your mark in the world of impressionism, simply lift the device to your face - or another appropriate part of your anatomy - close your eyes and press gently. Then slowly remove and avoid tilting, to reveal a perfect 3D impression in glorious shiny metal. It’s the 4500 individually controllable pins that do all the real work behind the perspex display panel. By sliding to match the contours of your face, they render not only a perfect profile, but a fully featured 3 dimensional mask of the original visage. Simply splendid. But is it life or is it art?

At gadgetshop HQ, we can’t quite decide. So we’ll jolly well leave it up to you. Buy one and narcissistically model your own face, or buy multiple sets to create and display your own art. That’s the beauty of PinPressions. It helps you unleash your creativity in the most downright classy and sexy way possible. Did I just say sexy? Goodness me. I think I need to sit down Suitable for all ages Always close your eyes when taking an impression of your face
