Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.

Well, I reckon that will cause many a Christmas punch up, when supply will undoubtedly fall short of demand
Oh that is cool! Thank goodness I have a 9 year old to justify its purchase!

Hold on fellas, apparently there's a Millenium Falcon drone coming next month.
My nephew just bought the AAT for £18.50
Lost a piece already!!!! Grrrrr
They look totally "sick"
The pricing is such a shame ..
Still Xmas presents maybe
In stock here, probably sell out before xmas: https://www.firebox.com/product/7260/Sphero-BB-8
Personally would love one, but my kids are too young, and I doubt I'd play with it for very long.
The Falcon drone on the other hand, thats an instant purchase.
Millenium Falcon drone
Ordered. BB-8. Now can I keep it hidden until Christmas!
Not that impressed with the drone!
