He's more mallard now than man; beaky and rubberised. Who? Duck Fadar, of course. This completely ridiculous glowing rubber duck looks just like everyone's favourite intergalactic supervillain.

What's more he phases through a kaleidoscope of cool colours. Quack!

It might look like a wacky, one-eyed alien with bendy legs - and it is. But Echo Bot is also a stealth voice messenger. Simply record your message via the built-in mic and this lovable thingamabob plays it back the moment it detects movement.

Ideal for insulting/ serenading/ freaking-out passers-by.

It doesn't gyrate its hips or even curl its lip, but this kitsch little bath toy is guaranteed to leave you all shook up as it automatically phases through various mesmerising colours whilst bobbing around the bath tub.

Why use dull wedges when you can prop open doors with a sexy stiletto? This rubber-coated high heel is infinitely more glamorous than a regular doorstop and adds a feminine touch to any home, even if you're a billy-no-mates bachelor!

You can bet your Kyoto Protocol that coffee-loving planet-haters will be stirred into action by this ingenious mug, as it features a map that shows the effects of global warming every time you fill it with something warm.

Living up to its snazzy name, this supremely portable BBQ is indeed tiny. Yet somehow the stainless steel Grilliput transforms into a generous grill that supports a staggering 560g of nosh. Throw in the collapsible Firebowl and you can contain a fire anywhere.

Put your pencil where the sun don't shine with this truly vulgar sharpener. As well as teaching pusskins not to act all aloof and lift his tail in the air, it's the ideal desktop gift for infantile doodlers everywhere. Meow!

There must be better things to do that watch a springy thingy slink down the stairs, but you'll forget what they are when you start fiddling with this 60th anniversary re-issue of Slinky. As strangely compelling as ever, this design icon even comes in its original no-frills packaging.

Add a glowing ambience to bathtime without getting your wicks soggy by investing in your very own underwater lighting system. These nifty little battery-operated lights stick to the bathtub via suckers but they can also float free in the water, spa-style. Altogether now, ommmm...
