Product Description
Product Description
The most original and possibly craziest Remote-Controlled product ever made! The giant sized flying fish is easy to control in the tightest of spaces using the remote control. The remote control also moves the fish up and down in the air by moving the ‘feeder fish’ forward (fish goes down) and backwards (so the fish flies higher). In this way the fish can even go up and down your stairs! The RC range is approximately fifty feet.
This fish needs to be filled with Helium before it will fly. Helium is available at most florists and all retail stores that sell Helium party balloons. You can either take the fish and get it filled up locally, or buy a Helium canister to fill up the fish for use again and again. Apart from the Helium the fish is ready to fly straight out of the box, with all batteries included. So, get some Helium and you will be flying around your Giant Fish in minutes. Not suitable for outdoor use.

We bought this for my husband's 60th birthday party - so most of the 'children ' there were middleaged.
Its fiddly to assemble ( and you need to get it inflated with helium before you can add the attachments )so I recommend looking online for the video instructions. It only cost us a couple of pounds to get it inflated at a party shop.
Once inflated relatively easy to manage and steer and everyone will want a go.
Durable? Well it survived merry adult partygoers crashing it into walls.
Overall great fun for special occasions.

We bought the shark air swimmer for my son's 10th birthday after he'd seen some advertising on TV and he loves it.
The first thing I'll mention is that it is a really big toy. I had considered getting it filled with helium at the florists but we bought our own can, and I'm so glad we did. I've just measured the inflated shark and it's about 5ft long and 3ft high with its fins and tail on, so you might feel a little foolish being seen walking home from the florist with it! Because of it's size I think you need a biggish room/house to fly it in (preferably open plan), it'll be no good in a low ceiling cottage for example. I think it's age guide is accurate as it's not a toy for younger children, especially the shark - when I'm sat on the settee and that thing flies over me it's really creepy. The controls are quite straight forward and it is good fun to fly. Another thing to add is that it's a bit complicated to put it all together correctly but the instructions are adequate.
Time will tell how long it lasts before getting a puncture as it does seem to be made from ordinary foil balloon material. It has been inflated for 3 days now and is looking like it needs a top up of helium already.
Definately a talking point and easy to fly, but buy your own helium.

Bought this as a Xmas prezzie for my 7 year old grandson.Although when assembled it looks as if there is nothing difficult about it,if its the first one you have done, the lack of clear diagrams makes it a bit of a chore. After it was built,my grandson did enjoy playing with it. As it would not fit in the taxi when he went home,it stayed in my hallway over night. Next morning I had to almost completely re-build it due to most of the stick on hooks,fins and tilt mechanism falling off.It looks as if this will keep happening till ultimately the pads will not adhere to the body. For what this cost,I am very disappointed in the product and would not recommend it to anyone.

great fun once assembled
I was surprised at how easily it is to set up the 'fish' once it has been assembled.
It took, however, a great deal of figuring to interpret the instructions. Read more

fell apart in one day
Absolute waste of money. The stickers that keep the fins on are useless so the fins and tail fell off within one day.
