If old arcade games (and hot drinks) are your thing, you might just like this Pac-Man heat changing mug.
An officially licensed product via Namco, the mug holds your hot drink and does something else – when a hot drink hits it, the characters and power-ups suddenly appear within the maze on the side. Presumably, when it cools, they go away again.
You can get one from Firebox, priced at £5.99.
Pac-man seems to gets everywhere, from seating to a carpet and even a washing-up sponge. Well, now you can inflict the gaming classic on your kids with the retro game arcade baby grow.
It's a simple but instantly recognisable design and comes from the range of The Green Apple, a company who specialize in eco-friendly and ethically sourced products. This baby grow is made from organic cotton, so the kid has got some twenty-first century green credentials as well as the 80s look.
The babygrow costs £19.
