Yes, it would arrive in an enormous cardboard box from HK, and get delivered to you via a courier company. There may be GST implications.

No, not that one ... :)

This was a full size inflatable, with a couple of fans to provide lift and direction. Add a remote radio control unit, and you have something to make people stop and do a doubletake.

Could be fun to take for a wander through the parking area down by Bondi Beach: float it over the exit gate where the guy is waiting to collect the parking fees. :)

Interesting car. I think it is ugly though. Give me classic curves and British Racing Green any day.

Top gear rocks. Good to see Hammo is unchanged after his major accident. Can't wait for the new series.
