3.0 out of 5 stars Tinkerbell Flies!, November 30, 2008

My two daughters (3 1/2 and 7 1/2) love the Fairy Haven book series and my youngest loves Tinker Bell. I saw these at our local Wal-Mart and picked two up (gotta get one on bandwidth A and one on B if you want two in your house otherwise they won't work together). I opened them to demo them together before Christmas to make sure that there would be no surprises about their functionality. They only go up or down, not sideways. It's a simple remote so that is positive. My husband and I thought they were really cute and our daughters will be tickled to play with them. However,I am once again disappointed with the price of this toy. I don't often purchase toys for our girls since the quality never outweighs the cost. More often than not, I will purchase a learning toy that I feel will be fun for them and educational. This is not a toy for our youngest to use alone (it's for 6 and up) since it's basically made of styrofoam. I guess it can't be heavy for it to fly. The other materials used to make this are really cheap and it seems poorly made (at $40 a pop I think that's disgraceful). BUT, I like to get them at least one exciting toy for Christmas and this seems to be the one. I'll update this once they are played with and see how long the novelty lasts. My guess is it won't last for long but I'm optimistic and hopeful. We'll see.

1.0 out of 5 stars Poorly made, flimsy, January 13, 2009

This was a Christmas present for our 5-year-old daughter from her grandparents (she did not ask for it-- hadn't even heard about it). She loved it, but Tinkerbell needed constant recharging and after about 5 minutes total airtime, the base needed new batteries. Very flimsy, no control over its course direction, erratic flying, and you can't prevent most crashes. After one week and two sets of batteries, the wings broke and the toy is useless. But my husband and I were surprised it lasted a week. Wish her grandparents had used their $$ for something else.

I bought 2 of these for my 2 daughters. One broke the day they were opened for Christmas. The other broke the next day. What a waste of money. All of Disney products are cheaply made with an expensive price tag. I will be more careful in the future. Do not waste your money!
