From sweet treats, laid-back scooters and killer T-shirts to gaming-based candles, brilliant art and amazing hair accessories, we’ve got you covered when it comes to those last-minute holiday geek gifts.

WEARABLE ART
Reel Cult Art RoboCop T-shirt

The bad guys might think they’ve killed officer Murphy but all they’ve done is put him at the head of the queue for resurrection as a powerful destructive force. Kitted out with some high-tech weaponry, he’s Dirty Harry in a tin can. This T-shirt from Reel Cult Art celebrates the original – and best! – version of the character. We’d buy that for a dollar! Heck, we’ll go as high as £25.99.

Reel Cult Art’s designs stretch far beyond this T-shirt, and they can be printed on a mug, a throw pillow, a tote bag and numerous other handy items!

RRP: £17.40-£25.99
Available at Reel Cult Art on Red Bubble

FANTASTIC PLASTIC
Game of Thrones Dorbz & Rock Candy figures

Look at these adorable Game of Thrones regulars in chibi and mini collectable form! There are a number of characters available, including Daenerys, the Red Witch, Arya and Jaime. Our faves are the Jon Snow Dorbz figure and the Brienne Rock Candy vinyl collectible. The Cersei Dorbz figure is a little creepy, though – she’s smiling, which makes us think she’s watching someone being tortured…

RRP: £9.99 each (Dorbz figures), £14.98 each (Rock Candy figures)
Available at the HBO Shop

KEY TO SUCCESS
KeySmart organiser

Say hello to our new favourite thing! Some ideas are so simple you wonder why it took so long for them to happen – we’re talking wheels on suitcases here. In much the same way, you’ll wonder why you struggled on with bulky clutches of keys in your pocket before you got a KeySmart. Custom upgrade options include a USB drive and a bottle opener, further enhancing the Swiss Army-style feel of this nifty little gadget.

RRP: KeySMart Extended ($19.99, £14.85), folding knife ($12.49), screwdriver ($12.49), nano pen ($13.99), 16GB USB 3.0 ($25)
Available at KeySmart

BALL CONTROL
Sphero Battle-scarred BB-8 and Force Band

BB-8 gets into plenty of scrapes during the latest Star Wars movies, so it’s only fitting that Sphero has forged a special collector’s edition battle-worn model of our fave new droid (sorry, R2!). Bundled together with the Force Band, fans can now control their loyal droid using a few simple Jedi-esque hand gestures. Thrust your hand forward to send BB-8 into driving mode, turn your palm down and BB-8 will look away from you, turn your hand up and it’ll look back at you. The band also uses light cues and vibrations to alert you of disturbances in the force, allowing you to collect digital relics in a smartphone app in a similar fashion to Pokémon Go. It may be a sci-fi cliché, but this is the droid you’re looking for.

RRP: £179.99

FEET OF CLAY
Creepies characters

Creepies were created in 2013 when Mrs Creepy bought her love of Halloween to life with a packet of clay. Four years on, the creepy family is packed full of oddballs – from Batty and Moggy the Cat to Devil, Zombear and many more. Each character is hand-made, sculpted from polymer clay and has its own personality and backstory, including likes and dislikes. Plus, if you have a creepy character idea of your own, they can make it a reality.

RRP: £14.50-£22
Available at Creepies

SEE THE LIGHT
Legend of Zelda Triforce lamp

This official Zelda merchandise enables you to turn any room in your abode into a Temple of Light. The relic projects the crest of the Royal Family of Hyrule and provides a source of power, wisdom, courage and illumination (although we can only vouch for that last one). Powered by USB or batteries, the freestanding lamp measures 20cm tall and includes non-slip feet – making it perfect for a desk or bedside table.

RRP: £23.99
Available at Gamerabilia

DIORAMA DRAMA
Schleich Marvel figures

Avengers assemble! Schleich has created a range of collectables aimed at fans of Marvel’s superheroes (and supervillains, unless Green Goblin’s suddenly had a change of heart about his hatred for Spider-Man). Thor, Iron Man, Doctor Strange and the green meanie have each been individually hand-painted, with great attention to detail. Check out Iron Man’s gold and red high-tech battle suit, the lavishly designed Doctor Strange, with all of the character’s clothing and accessories emulated, or the Green Goblin, posing on his classic glider and ready to attack! They join a range that already includes Hulk and Captain America.

RRP: £9.99

BABE IN ARMS RACE
Reel Cult Art Shogun Assassin T-shirt

When flitting between coffee shops in Dulwich Village, it’s not the parents you have to worry about, it’s the slash of that baby cart which’ll do you in. The same goes for Ogami and his nipper, and their dual-action katana and perambulator attack are captured to great effect on this amazing T-shirt.

RRP: £17.40-£25.99
Available at Reel Cult Art on Red Bubble

CREDIT WHERE CREDIT’S DUE
Wallet Ninja

All too often we open our wallet to the sight of moths departing for better shores. So this credit card-sized gadget featuring tools for various jobs is a real upgrade! It includes three screwdrivers; six hex heads for dealing with nuts and bolts; openers for bottles, cans and letters; a box cutter; a ruler; a phone stand and even a peeler. Meanwhile, its 1.5mm of heat-treated steel will apparently never chip, rust or bend. It’s even TSA approved to carry on flights, so you can be truly ninja-like and get into those impossible-to-open peanuts.

RRP: £8.99

WHAT’S THAT R2? MY DINNER’S READY?

Visual creative Stuart MacKay infuses fine art painting with innovative graphic design.
