Spy Essentials
Night Vision Goggles: Every good spy needs to have the essentials and what better addition to the spy toolkit then a pair of night vision goggles! See anything and everything in total darkness with these goggles! These super stealth goggles use infrared technology that will have your child performing convert night missions all the time — so much fun that you might even find yourself borrowing them for a mission of your own! Take backyard night time games like hide and seek to a brand new level with essential spy tools like night vision goggles!
Spy RC Cars: Everybody loves a good remote control car, but when that RC car is its own spying machine, it turns a fun toy in to a great convert mission spy toy! Spy RC cars have built in video cameras with audio to capture whatever is in the cars path. Zoom room to room and the camera streams live video back to a screen built in to the remote control. Some models have built in memory cards so you can save and upload to a computer for playback later on. Many Spy RC Cars have infrared built in, so lights aren’t required, making sleuthing even easier and more secret!
Spy Pens: Spy pens are a must have for kids who adore spy toys and want to outfit their agent toolboxes with all of the spy essentials! A spy pen allows kids, the young, and young at heart, to write and read secret messages; anywhere, anytime! Some models of spy pens have built in UV lights, others have decoder makers. These different methods allow the decoding of the invisible ink, keeping your messages top secret from prying eyes! Want even more fun in your spy pen? Look for the feature packed spy pens that feature secret compartments, magnifiers and stampers on top of the invisible ink and decoder marker!
Cameras: An absolute spy kit essential is a good spy camera. The different styles of spy cameras are numerous, but they all have one thing in common: they make sleuthing an adventure! Some spy cameras are tiny and can be worn, like a pin. Others can be placed inside items, such as a teddy bear, to record movement in a room. Still others are so small that they can be placed in your pocket without anyone knowing you have one; ready when you are. Regardless of what kind of camera you choose, you can be assured that your spy camera will capture all of the evidence needed for your detecting fun!
Voice Changers: Have fun with voice changers that make your voice deep, high pitched, or anything in between! Become a super spy and hide your identity by changing your voice with this great spy toy! Different voice changers have different options, but most give you a minimum of six different voice settings so you can change your voice numerous times and make it sound like you have a group of combaters with you. Kids and adults alike will have fun seeing what funny sounds they can make!
Security Alarms: Have fun and protect precious items with security alarms designed for amateur spies! Many styles come with a receiver and three ‘bouncers’ that allow the red laser beams to bounce from one to another and back to the receiver, creating a barrier around an item or area. When an enemy breaks the beam, an alarm sounds, altering you to the breach. Some security systems have invisible beams, while others are visible. Choose wisely, you never know when it might come in handy!
Glasses: All master spies have super cool and stylish glasses and your little spy needs them too! Spy glasses are an essential spy kit tool and a must have for all detectives everywhere. They record video from the bridge of the glasses, which can later be uploaded to a computer for viewing. Some glasses even allow audio recording. The spy glasses are outfitted with small buttons on the side of the frame so that the user can easily start, pause, and end recording. As with all great spy toys, use wisely and never record somebody without their permission.
Safe: Hide all of your top secret goodies in a great spy safe that is virtually undetectable! Many spy safes don’t look like your every day safes, making them a great solution for spies who need to hide their secrets! Magnetic keys open the safe, no dials, buttons or keyholes, ensuring that only the key holder has access to what is inside! Hide it right in plain sight on a bookshelf and watch everyone walk right by your own secret hiding place, you will never have to worry about finding a super secret hiding place for your top secret investigating reports, ever again.
