Maybe that's why we were so impressed by the new and exclusive signing to Firebox Utd., Mr Soccer, as this hi-tech footie game is
played by RC robots that do exactly what they're told. And the person doing the telling is you! The idea is to manoeuvre your
dribbling droids around the pitch via a nifty transmitter. Using the controller's forward, reverse, left, right and shoot buttons
the object is to score more goals than your opponent. Yes, we know that's flippin' obvious, but judging by some recent
international performances we thought it was worth reiterating.
One-on-one is fun (which is just as well because that is what's in the starter pack) but you don't need Abramovich's riches to
augment your robo-squad. Simply purchase additional Mr Soccer robots and you can play up to seven-a-side. With fourteen robots on
the pitch the game can become more confusing than an Eriksson formation/Garth Crooks interview combined, but that just adds to the
manic fun - especially if you and your team mates have been down the local before the match.
It's true you won't be able to bend it like Beckham but then most of us are more Ron 'Chopper' Harris than Stanley 'Wizard of the
Dribble' Matthews when Saturday comes.
Better still, these highly desirable droids come in England and Brazil colours, so you can make like Micro Owen or Roboto Carlos.
The R2D2-esque droids are surprisingly agile, they can spin on a sixpence ( that's 2.5 pence in 'new money' ), and you can even
change their boots - well, plastic feet - to cater for different skill levels. If you fancy a warm-up you can flip the pitch for
training purposes and perfect your robotic runs around a special maze. 
We have sold out of the complete set including the pitch and now only have the individual robots for sale. However, these radio control machines are great fun and the creative’s out there can make your own pitch. Either that or you can use them to drive around your desk pushing paperwork out the way. Tidy.
