"Doesn't fly right, broke quickly, fun while it lasted"
Day we opened it, it flew great but without any control (think wild swooping followed inevitably by a crash). My daughters loved it. Day 2 after a crash, Tinkerbell's neck cracked (she is just styrofoam and cannot take the head dives that this toy keeps ending its flights in.) Glued the neck but all she does is dive bomb now. It cannot be called flight. The tail part is all bent and creased too from flying and children handling. The whole thing is incredibly cheap. The children love it so much that I thought I would try to find just the flyer (there's nothing wrong with the charger) but no such luck. Wowwee does not appear to provide any service for this piece of junk at all. Oddly, they do provide replacements for some of their other flying toys.

"Great Toy, but Be Realistic!"
We got this for our 8 year old daughter and she absolutely loves it. We realized right away that you have to be careful with this thing since it is by nature going to crash a lot. After talkign with our daughter about being careful and repairing it a few times the past month she has had a blast with this thing. It has held up well considering the abuse it gets, but be realistic this thing will require a little tlc to keep it flying and in tact after some bad crashes which is bound to happen.

"flies very poorly"
I purchased as a christmas gifts for my 5 year old daughter.

after installing the batteries and charging the device. Very sad to say it does not fly. Unless you consider a toy flapping its wings on the ground. no control at all through the remote. and yes after it flopped on the floor for the third try. the wing broke at the base.

do not buy you disappointed

"flimsy and poor design"
My daughter had fun for the day and then it broke. The pin holding the wings to the gear assembly popped out somewhere and so the wings wouldn't work after that. I contacted Wowwee and the customer service says they don't warranty any damage during flight. I tried to explain that it was a design flaw and needed a pin that would not pop off. They do not stand behind their products. Don't waste your money.

"Lasted 6 hours..."
My parents bought this for my daughter's 5-year old birthday party. As soon as I opened it, I knew it wasn't going to last. Obviously, Tinkerbell needs to be light in order that she can fly, but the bottom half of this toy is made of extremely thin Styrofoam that couldn't possibly survive even the utmost care of a 6 year old. I figured it would at least last a day, but that wasn't the case. My daughter took the toy and was holding it in her hand to pretend to fly Tinkerbell and lightly grazed a corner wall with Tinkerbell's wing. The support that holds the wing (think toothpick) broke and she'll never fly again. Always the optimist, my daughter said "That's OK, she can still be a pretty decoration"!

I'm hoping my parents did pay $40 for this and would highly recommend everyone stay away from it!

What our customer's say!

"Very Fun", My 5 year old daughter got this toy for her birthday and loves it! It doesn't fly for long, but we just plug it back in and play with something else for a few minutes. Tinkerbell doesn't have any controls other then up or down, but you can control it a little bit by bouncing her off of things and lowering her wing speed. The tail is bending a little bit, but it's not changing the way she flys. Like some of the other reviews say, read the directions FIRST! It creates a whole lot of laughter in our house!

"Wow Wee Flytech Tinkerbell Indoor Flyer", This toy was a major disappointment. My daughter waited many days in anticipation for it's arrival and then we couldn't get it to work. We couldn't even get it to charge up. It's not worth $2 let alone $25. We quickly shipped it back and were very impressed with how Amazon handled the return.

"Fantastic!", I saw all the bad reviews and had to say something. I love this toy! My daughter (4) liked it, too. But I loved this toy. I bought it at a discount store thinking it would never work. After we charged it up and tried to turn it on it didn't do anything for a few seconds. Then the wings started going and it scared me so bad I screamed then started laughing. It is ingenious. We played with it for hours, learning to swoop and dive to avoid objects. True, it can't be controlled precisely. That's part of what makes it fun--this is like having a live bird flying around your house. Sometime it will even chase you. The baby (toddler) even ran after it and brought it to us--fun for the whole family! You need to be a little tech-savvy to get the remote to work (just a little: read the manual and try turning it off and on again). It also eats batteries, so you need rechargable ones. Ours did eventually break after my daughter wrenched on the wings when it was off. I don't blame the toy for that. I think it is a wonderful way to interest girls in robotics and flight science/technology. I am buying another one! (p.s. I think that Wow Wee warantees them if you buy from an authorized dealer--so not a discount store)

"Magical fairy", I received this magical fairy from my son as a Christmas gift. Being a life long fan of Tink I adore this magical fairy....the only thing that could make her better would be fairy dust! I am over 14 years old and would not give it to a young child. Get real people, kids break things, especially fragile things. BUT this is the ideal present for an adult TinkerBell fan....it will melt a grown woman's heart. Guys can have their helicopters and planes...us endlessly fairy minded girls can have our Tinks.

"Not very durable", This product flies very well, but it is very fragile and it broke after one or two flights which made it vastly overpriced.

Would be great for someone who is very skilled in flying model airplanes but even by following the directions closely it was hard not to crash it into walls, etc.

"Difficult to get out of the packaging!", I bought this for my 3 year old granddaughter and it took her mother and father just to get it out of the package and then to get it open to put the batteries in was crazy. It says it has to charge 18 minutes and it will fly for 4 minutes and they're right. 18 minutes is a long time for Tinkerbell to "sleep" so she can fly for such a short time. Her wings are very fragile and you have to be pretty careful with her. She's fun when she flies and brought lots of smiles and giggles but it was a struggle for the adults to get her going.

"Good idea - bad toy", Great idea - a launchable toy that has some wings to help create lift. You would think that means this toy would glide. It head dives. It will actually land on its head and spin in circles while the wings flap. Makes you want to stomp on it to put it out of its misery. Poor tinker.

"RC Fyling Tinkerbell", Purchased the RC Flying Tinkerbell for my grand daughters ages 6 & 10 since they are big fans of "Tink" and love to imagine what it is like to 'fly'.
Product quality is good, battery installation simple and the instructions are easy. It does fly both up and down using the control switch (which basically controls the wing flapping speed), but there is no lateral or side-to-side control, ie., you are at the mercy of any air moving in the room or the height of your ceilings. She pretty much goes where she wants to, which is what Tink always did in the movies anyways. I did crash it a couple of times on her descent, but the product held up to the impact with no wing or body damage. The device does hold the charge for the time specified, and only takes 20 minutes or less to fully re-charge. Since the girls don't own any RC devices I think they will enjoy this toy and will be pleasantly surprised on Christmas day.

"Fun but then it broke", My daughter received this as a gift for her 5th birthday, and it was a lot of fun while it lasted. I think it lasted about 1 week before the tiny power switch on the body started having trouble. By the end of the second week, we could not get it to turn on at all. When it did fly, it was fun to chase it around the house, and with practice I could get it to land slowly. Something my 5 year old could not master. To her it was either on or off. When I did think of opening up the switch to fix it, I noticed the plastic gears were cracked so out it went.

"Disney Products are a disappointment", 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!
