Big Trak
It was fucking quicker to grow the apple from seed than it was to programme Big Trak to fetch it for me.

And then it couldn't get over the kitchen step anyway. My Mum got fed up with lifting it over, putting the apple in and then sending it back. I got fed up with going to rescue it when it came up two metres short of the door and turned left into the dog.

The cat seemed to like sleeping in the trailer though, so it wasn't a dead loss.

And it went through batteries like a bastard

I'm glad you told me this...
...I never had one as a kid but I've seen that they've been rereleased and so I was going to get one.

My Big Trak was fuking awesome

Yes!
...and my step-brother and I each had one for xmas, so we could work out synchronized "battles" and stuff.

Great fun.

But the batteries leaked in it and killed my Big Trak. :*(
