Polaroid Z2300 10MP Digital Instant Print Camera

Polaroid camera’s used to be a thing of the past from the 70s and 80s and the reason why they were so popular was the fact that the Polaroid can print out photos for you on-the-spot !

Silverlit Build a Bot

Your boyfriend will love this gift as it is a robot ! Robots are something which people normally associate with the future, as robots have been depicted in many science fiction movies (R2-D2, anybody?), and the setting is always somewhere distant or somewhere in the future. But now, you can actually own your own robot ! By giving him this gift, you are also giving him bragging rights in the sense that he can tell all his friends that he owns a legitimate robot in his house ! With this Build a Robot kit by Silverlit, it needs 3 AA alkaline batteries to function and can be programmed with 36 programmable actions in a single run and can perform simple options like holding simple objects, kicking a ball as well as turning left and right. When it is moving forward, it has an intelligent sensor which can detect objects if there is something blocking its way and it will then simple walk another way. Have loads of fun with your significant other by passing each other objects through the dining table when having meals or buy a few more units of this product and challenge him to a football match by using the robots as players ! By purchasing this item on Lazada Malaysia, you can save 35% on its current price of RM 137.00 compared to its original price of RM 210.00, which is literally a fraction of its original price.
