A massive trend this year and a fun futuristc twist on a kid's toy. From cool and simple to huge and humanlike, here are the top three that pushed our buttons.
6 in 1 Robot Kit
The 6 in 1 Solar Robot Kit has a DIY beginner's kit that's perfect for anyone with more than a passing interest in robots (which is everyone, surely?). You can build the kit 6 different ways which means once you've finished making one robot, you can take it apart and turn it into a solar powered boat, windmill, or car and that's just 3 of them.

I Sobot
He's small enough to sit in the palm of your hand, and yet is so packed with deeply clever tech stuff you'll be playing with him forever. Get him to do push-ups, perform kung-fu moves, walk around, obey your voice commands, play songs, and generally amaze everyone who sees him.

Rovio WiFi Robot
Rovio allows you to be in two places at once without having resorting to the inconvenience of time travel. His base is equipped with wheels and the head-mounted camera. If that isn't enough, he also has an inbuilt speaker and microphone, so you can watch, listen and speak to your family or friends from half way across the world.
