Futafax
Fax Machines - The
Class of '62 (1991) Del's Spiel: The Fax Machine of tomorrow - today.
Receive faxes from Rome, Torronto, New York and Mike
at the Nag's
Head.
The Real Deal: They splutter and cough and don't
photocopy. But you can always pretend they work when Slater
is around. |
Portable
Rajah Computers -
The Frog's Legacy (1987) Del's Spiel: Used in the American Space Shuttle.
"It's got RAM, it's got ROM, it's got them, red and
green lights, everything!"
The Real Deal: They do work, if you give them a
good whack on the side from time to time. |
Russian
Video Cameras -
Fatal Extraction (1993) Del's Spiel: Solid, top-of-the-range, slightly
on the wide and hefty side, but it will save you a fortune
on using weights and rowing machines down the gym.
The Real Deal: Unless you happen to have a Russian
VCR to play the tapes on, and muscles like Geoff Capes,
they have very little use. |
Red
Cycling Helmets - Heroes
And Villains (1996) Del's Spiel: 200 red aerodynamic cycling helmets.
They later evolve into TCT (Trotters Crash Turbans) for
Sikhs that ride motorbikes.
The Real Deal: Del explains, "some git painted
200 horse-riding crash helmets red". |
Mobile Phone - Karen Lesley Taylor
(Hooky Street winner!) Del's Spiel: Talk and send text to all your family and friends from anywhere on this futuristic looking mobile phone. It comes with cables and charger. We have a choice of three colours today. As BT says, it's good to talk and I'm telling you for twenty-five quid you can't go wrong.
The Real Deal: Del was landed with fifty mobile phones with all the accessories, but not one comes with a battery.
