Big Trak if you don’t remember was an amazingly cool-looking 6-wheeled tank that you could program yourself to move around whilst firing its photon beam. Happily not much has changed with this new version which means you can not only relive the fun you had as a kid but if you’ve got children of your own pass it on through the family. A few simple instructions can make your Big Trak go forward a certain number of lengths fire and then come back to you. The onboard memory will store up to 16 commands in one go which means you can easily have your faithful tank-servant completing some complex manoeuvres in no time. Big Trak comes with all the necessary black/red/yellow stickers that made the original so distinctive in the 1980s. So whether you’re looking for a cool gift for kids or you’re on a nostalgia trip Big Trak is Back!

Much like our 6 in 1 Solar Powered Robot this T3 Robot harnesses the power of the sun to make your day that little bit more interesting. Unlike the rather cutesy 6 in 1 however the T3 takes a slightly more aggressive stance – once you’ve built it you can turn it into either a tank a scorpion or a standard robot (we’re not sure there’s such a thing as a standard robot but there we are). And if those three different guises aren’t enough for you then well you’re just no fun are you? What’s not to like about a solar-powered scorpion that waddles across your desk like some mechanised arthropod? That’s right – nothing. Being a solar-powered robot or tank or scorpion the T3 requires no batteries whatsoever just a healthy glare of sunshine. Or given the notoriety of our island’s native climate a functioning light bulb. It’s a great little gizmo for keeping on your desk and even better for kids who take an interest how things work. Piecing the thing together in the first place is a rewarding task to complete and once that’s finished the fun really begins. Ingenious design and an eco-friendly message – what could be better for kids and grown-ups alike?
