Prince George received more presents than any other Royal in 2014...

Prince George received 706 presents from complete strangers in 2014. As in seven hundred.  A new list revealed by Buckingham Palace shows that the 18 month-old outdid every other Royal in the gifting arena, as fans showered him with silverware, rocking horses, sheepskin boots and, erm, extreme sports equipment. 

Here's how he's been working his way towards a new title; King Of The Haul...

1. He's A Baby Of Many Tastes From BMX riding to cookery and literature, Prince George's interests are varied allowing maximum creative potential on the gift-giving front. This lack of direction, however, can also lead to lunacy and randomness. Case in point? The below mini speedboat.

2. But He Takes No Crap George is open to new ideas, but will

3. He Rarely Actually Shows Up To Collect His Gifts Well why would you when your mum and dad are sooo good at all the awkward handshaking?

4. Or Grandad Could Go...

6. He Takes His Campaign Global A lot of George's pressies were amassed in Australia last April, when he accompanied Prince William and Kate Middleton on his debut world tour. Because the best way to get even more presents is to widen your fan base, right?Here they are accepting a skateboard on his behalf.

7. His Stuffed Toy Collection Is A Kingdom Itself And his army of loyal subjects is ever growing.

8. He Loves Personalisation It's custom-made every-thang for Prince George, whose wardrobe now includes monogrammed cycling kits and rugby shirts for all the sports that he can't yet play. Whatever our future king desires, and all that...
