Celebrate Easter with a cheep Sega robot : Shiny Shiny

SegaToy's fluffy pet is a wing-flapping, chirping... robot. Just stroke it to hear it "peep" and keep it topped up with free-range batteries. Much like a real pet it doesn't display your email / make you toast / ping when Doctor Who's about to come on the telly. Thankfully the realism only goes so far; it won't be leaving battery acid "presents" all over your living room either. At 1,507 yen (about £7), this Japanese delight should entertain the kids at Easter for about as long as it takes them to realise it won't sync with their iPod.
