This Remote Control Hand definitely has a ‘creep your little sis out’ feel to it, doesn’t it? You can picture the scene…dark bedroom corridor at midnight, just you and the tack tack tack sound as the hand approaches her door…the tremulous whispered ‘who’s there…’ from inside. Nope can’t go on, too scary. £14.99.

A larger than lifesize 23cm robotic hand which appears to have a life of its own, just like ‘Thing’ from the Addams Family. The supple rubber ‘skin’ gives it a life-like quality as it walks forward. The remote control is a simple on/off device, but it allows the hand to be brought to life surreptitiously, surprising the unsuspecting – great fun!
