A late entry here with Anki Overdrive.

It might just beat my son's BB-8 which is currently rolling all around the house.

A comfy pair of winter pyjamas.

I am so sad that they're my top present.

I just had to google that. Literally no idea.

It's a modern day Scalextric, yes?

I got- amongst other marvellous things- a telescope, which I am DEAD excited about. Once the skies bloody well clear up anyway.

My Dad got a rather nice watercolour print of the Amex commissioned from a local arty sort, which is lovely, and also these slate coasters with classic Albion programmes on. No idea where the buyer got them from (pretty sure it's not the club) but I think they're great. I want some.

I get a set of these last Christmas, different prints but the same materials etc, I think they came from a market somewhere? Mine have the Cup Final Ticket and various programmes as prints, quality.

Again, they look like the exact same product but mine have different prints, I'm in Doncaster at the moment but I'll photograph and share mine when I get home.

I had to Google "Anki Overdrive" - the photo looks like it's a Scalextric, but the words talk about "battlefield" and there's an app to control it?? What is it?!!

Oh - I got Red Dwarf box set; Peaky Blinders (wassat?) box set, a new roasting tin (yay!) and various small bits. Getting gf's presents on Tues...

 

[DumLum]

Albion-wise, a ticket to the Wolves game and a Bobby Zamora t-shirt for me. [emoji2]

Yep, Bobby Zamora T-shirt for me also.

However do they come up very small to size? Are they a slim fit? Or have I really eaten that much over Christmas?

Yep - modern Scalextric. The cars are, essentially, small computers. They know where they are on the track and where other cars are. They aren't on a 'rail' as such but still won't fall off.

You control them with a phone or tablet and there are in-app ways of fighting the other cars.

Here's where the first version was unveiled.

How come Andrew and Rohan rather than Bruno and Dale?

My son's not a massive BHAFC fan (he's a Gooner, I know shocking isn't it? I've tried to make him see sense, but he's not having it ). I think it was simply because Crofts and Ince were easier to create, likeness wise!

 

[Publius Ovidius]

You've only got a week......

He he...the last one took 8 months and it was double the scale of this little beauty...so lots of fiddly bits to be done. Rigging is really fun and you need the patience of a saint. I haven't yet thrown one against the wall, although I did give up with a airfix red arrows gnat which was so badly made and warped, it was untrue.

. This is the one that took me 8 months.

Dronetastic

Not the model I was expecting but still surprisingly easy to assemble

and to fly

Hellfire missiles not included

 

[Sussex Nomad]

The most important pressie I got was my DAB radio, I can now listen to Radio Sussex and not be banned from the internet version.

 

[wellquickwoody]

Oh, I forgot these little beauties, to go alongside my Ice Blue limited edition Hamburg's, I am feeling about 19 again these days!

I'll see your sons BB8 & raise you my new Millennium Falcon Quadcopter

I think Stoke 2 Man Utd 0 is a pretty good present this year.
