Schylling Tim Bird Flying Toy - Rubberband-Powered Mechanical Bird that Really Flies - Wings Flap and Flies 50 Feet - Ages 7 and Up

15 years ago or so, I had one of these as a kid. I was recently birthday shopping for a nephew of mine, and wondered if they still made these. To my surprise, not only are ornithopters still made, but this seems 100% identical to the one I had as a kid, even down to the packaging. I guess if it isn't broke, don't fix it.After spending an afternoon flying it around, our little bird made several crash landings, and was totally fine. My only complaint is the tail seems a bit flimsy, particularly in the hinge where you angle it. Overall I think most any kid will have a fun time playing with this thing, and its much cheaper than a drone or RC plane.

My 6 year old grand daughter loved this and ha spent hours playing with it. Is well made, but materials are plastic so some care must be taken.

This is a really cool bird! A friend had one and my kids played with it all the time. Bought it as a Christmas gift for my son since he liked it some much and it broke the first day. It is not very durable, when it came down it hit the ground and one wing broke in 2 spots. For almost $20 I wish we could have gotten more use out of it.

It’s fun to see how long and far it will go. Kept my 12-year-old’s interest for awhile.Very durable. Considering it crashes every time it lands, it is still in great shape.Disappointed you have to use their rubber bands which I don’t see where you can even get replacements, so it has a limited lifetime.It also doesn’t fly that far.I got it for my child because his class read “Freak the Mighty” where one of the characters plays with an ornithopter.

I have such great memories of this toy when I was a kid. I was so excited to find this.It flies great, but its much less durable than I remembered... The wings on this one do break a bit more easily. so be careful.But, its still fun.

This is such a fun way to get your kiddos out-of-doors. It is very durable, easy to handle, and flaps around like a real bird,—so I bought two of them this order after I saw how much fun my other grandchildren had with them.

Flys just like a real bird. My son is obsessed with this and takes it everywhere

I thought this would be a cute gift for two boys. Not only did one arrived broken, but both were extremely cheap and plastic parts bent while winding up elastic bands inside the body of bird.So disappointed in this purchase.
