Fun Little Toy!

This is the toy that began my interest in r/c planes and helicopters. It does take a little practice for anyone who isn't familiar with the controller but after 10 minuets I think you'd be set! This thing was hours of entertainment for me and I even flew it around my room when I was bored, no small feat my room is very tiny. The only problem I have with it, is that once the Li-Po battery wears down you are done, no replacement batteries. However they do last for a couple months and really are almost crash proof (I definitely put mine to the test). Overall it's an absolute buy and a fun introduction to r/c helis!

Great gift for Dad!!

I purchased this product for my Dad on Father's Day. He said he wanted a helicopter but not to spend too much. I saw this helicopter by Air Hogs and thought, for the price why not try it out. On Father's day, he took it out of the box, charged it up and started flying his new helicopter. It wasn't easy, the first couple days he was having some difficulty controlling the helicopter but after a little practice and reading through other reviews and tips, from other buyers to add a little weight to the front end of the plane, he had no problem. Now he fly's his helicopter at least once a day without problems and my nephews love it. This helicopter is great for anyone 8 years+, with some practice. It's also crashed into the ceiling and walls and is still in perfect shape.WORTH THE MONEY!!

Flying fun - Inside!

This indoor helicopter is a great concept, but the toy only lasted 5 days! I bought it for my Husband and he absolutely loved it! He flew it a few times a day for 3 days, and his flights would last around 10 minutes. Then, it stopped holding a charge. It would only fly for about 1-2 minutes, then gently fall to the ground. I tried changing all the batteries, but no luck. Unfortunately, it didn't turn out to be a very good present, as we had to send it back within a weeks time.

Rating :

7 hours of constant play and still going.

Usually I don't write a review this early after getting it, but this little helicopter hits the wall about every minute and just keeps coming back for more. I love it, and the little ones love it too.

Fun Toy for my 6 Year old!

My 6 year old son likes all kinds of planes, paper planes and what not. So I bought him this one and so far so good. He says it's so much fun and plays with it all the time. He can do it all on his own, he doesn't need my help. I can see how it may be hard for a 3 year old, maybe even a 4 year old to operate on their own. I think it's a good toy for 4+ years, otherwise yes they can easily break it.

Rating :

Works great but broke soon

My kids loved this until the base stopped working after a month. It was fun while it lasted.

Fun Toy

My little boy loves all the Shake n' Go stuff. He liked this also, however, the package arrived making noise. The battery was pretty much already burned out by the time he got it. He got another airplane that had an off switch(so it didn't make noise in the package) and this one did not. My son is not quite 3 and had no problems working the toy. I hope this is helpful.

POOR DESIGN!!!!

MY 3 YEAR OLD SON LOVES PLANES. SO WHEN THIS CAME OUT WE JUST HAD TO HAVE IT. WE PURCHASED IT AT TOYS R US FOR 14.99. THE PLANE IS MADE OF CHEAP GLUED TOGETHER FOAM. MY SON COULD NOT GET THE HANG OF JUST PUTTING THE PLANE ON THE "HEAVY" BASE AND PULLING IT A LITTLE THEN LETTING THE SHAKING ACTION TAKE OVER THE REST. WITH-IN 1 HOUR THE PLANE WAS PULLED IN TWO PIECES AND THE TOY USELESS! I CALLED FISHER PRICE AND THEY MAILED ME ANOTHER CHEAP GREEN PLANE! IT BROKE WITHIN AN HOUR AND I RETURNED THE PIECE OF JUNK BACK TO THE STORE AND RECEIVED A REFUND. THE BASE IS VERY HEAVY AND WELL MADE. SOUNDS ARE NICE, THE ACTION A LITTLE SLOW. DOES NOT FLY HIGH, TAKES MORE TIME TO LOAD THAN WORTH IT. THIS IS NOT FOR A 3 YEAR OLD BUT MORE FOR A 5 YEAR OR OLD. THEY NEED TO REDESIGN THE PLANE.

SO much fun for the kids! We LOVE this toy!

We bought this for our 3 yr old son about 9 months ago. It is tons of fun for him! The plane is foam so it has a couple tooth marks from his baby sister but it doesn't seem to affect function so thats good. Overall pretty durable. He took it to preschool for show and tell and it caused such an uproar with the kids that they had to end show and tell early - hehehe. We have given this toy as gifts to some of his friends and it has always been greeted with a ton of excitement! The base does require 3 AA batteries, however they last a long time. (that may be the problem w/the other reviewer's toy who said the base stopped working?). I have had to explain a couple times to each kid that has gotten the toy that if you want the lights and sounds to work you have to just snap the plane on the front (don't push it all the way back) and then shake, the toy does the rest as you shake it. If you push the plane past the first click then you have to push it all the way back yourself. Once the kids see how it works they have all been able to do it with no further instruction. Overall a wonderful toy and we highly recommend it!

stay away from the fancy cases - this is all you need

We used matchbox cars as "rewards" while potty training my son; and as a result we must have over 100 cars. We started with this case to hold all the cars and when it filled up we went in search of another. for our second case, we decided to get fancy. We tried a case that was shaped like a wheel and opened on both sides. It was a nightmare. The lids never stayed shut and inevitably, one side or the other would pop open and all the cars would fall out. So we scrapped that, and bought a case that also had a car launcher at the top of it. It was also a piece of junk. The launcher worked poorly and only shot the car out a couple of inches, and the cover also kept popping open. So, we're back to this case again.

The case holds a minimum of 48 cars, but some of the smaller cars fit 2 in a slot. the case is durable, and the cover fits tightly (but is still easy enough for my 3 year old to open by himself). This case is really all you need.

No more scattered cars and trucks

I bought this for all the cars and trucks that come with 3 active boys. These cases have made organization a snap and the kids eagerly put the cars in the boxes now. I would really recommend this product. Works well for taking the cars on travel trips too

Rating :

Works Great

I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old to keep all his loose cars. It fits a lot of different types of cars, not just Hot Wheels. He can't open the case by himself but that works for us. He brings it over to us so we can open it. It is better than having it fall open easily. He loves taking the cars out and putting them back in the slots. The price is great for what you are getting.

Questions & Answers

Question : Juvenile sex offenders must register as sex offenders when they become adults (in this case age 17)? Have we?
gone too far? A young 13 year old boy playing childhood pranks -- ding dong ditch -- with other friends touched the breasts of a 13 year old girl when she answered the door. Now that young boy must register as a sex offender and will be on the sex abuse registry for the rest of his life because Governor Rod Blagojevich believes children are MINORS of convenience -- meaning that they are minors only when he wants to control them or "protect them" like for driving vehicles, smoking or drinking, but when they behave like children, touching boobs or pinching butts as is routine for most young people (until recently) they are now capable of self- control and should be treated as adults? Why is our government so warped and why is it that the juvenile laws are not uniform so that kids are juveniles until they become 17 and then, they are adults from there on out and can do whatever an adult does? Why should they be able to joing the military and carry guns & kill but not have adult rights Several of your answers have actually proven my point that we've gone too far. Many of you don't even understand what is truly normal anymore. Children are curious about their sexuality. That's why when your parents were kids, it was not uncommon to learn that children were caught comparing parts, playing doctor, power peeing stark naked (boys and girls) in front yards, etc. You're right, touching boobs and butts is wrong but it's for the parents to direct their children and let them know that this is inappropriate behavior. Why are we advocating that the government punish our children and actually allowing the government to confuse the kids because of the totally INAPPROPRIATE ADULT REACTION to sexual development and normal childhood pranks (ding dong ditch). When kids can't be kids and when we don't have an opportunity to ensure they can be properly trained with PROPER discipline, we'll have continual increases in crime because it won't matter to them. Punishment is severe.

Answer:
I definatly agree with you in the case of the 13 year old because what he did was not sexual abuse as defined in the law, what he did was sexual harassment and unwanted touching. There is a huge difference, he should be repremanded severely for his unacceptable behavior, it is a behavior problem that needs to be addressed, he needs to be taught that women are not objects to be humiliated and mistreated. He does need to have a consequence for his action though, and community work is usually the best way to make a youth understand this. Pinching boobs and butts is not routine and normal behavior in teenagers, such behavior needs to reported or the youth will believe it is normal and will go on to do more harmful things, if you think that way you need counseling, a one time incident should not be considered an offence especialy at that age, a 17 year old on the other hand has had much more experience in life, and should know better than to mistreat the opposite sex, for heaven's sake haven't we come far enough to at least teach this to our sons and daughters at an earlier age. You are right of course 17 is too young to enroll in the military the government is still reeling from their drafting practices of the 60's when whatever youth 16 and older were drafted if not in school. Even though I think they are too young to enroll it is all about choices in life, and if a 17 year old chooses to go what can you or I do to stop him/her.

Question : if i reported a sex crime and the officer chose to ignore it, what can i do?
i was being pulled over for suspected dwi...when i stepped out of the vehicle i explained to the officer where i came from and why i might have been driving...keep in mind that i wasnt speeding or anything eratic..he said i was kinda shakin the truck a little within the lane. anyway, he asked why my fly was down on my pants and i told him that i darted from this house where i dozed off at and woke up to some guy tying to play with my private. he did nothing and insisted on me being arrested because he thought, not that i was drunk but i did have 4 drinks in the span of 4 hours, but he thought i was without even a breathalyzer. what can i do as far as my civil rights being violated?? it happened in missouri.

Answer:
As a matter of policy, most police agencies do not take reports from intoxicated persons for obvious reasons. Alcohol impairs judgment and details may be falsely told, or left out, or altered by an intoxicated person. If he felt you were intoxicated this may be the reason. In that case, simply wait until you have sobered and then report the crime. If he still refuses to take the report, assuming it is true (?), then report it to a superior officer.

Question : My man of 3 yrs has a dvd player in his work vehicle w/ about 20 porn. This can't b normal?
We're engaged 2 b married, and we are not kids . I'm average height and average weight. I offer him all sorts of kinky sex play without EVER might I add saying no to him. I initiate, I accept, I take, allow to b taken. I'm average height and am in good shape.(5'4, around 120 lbs) I'm 30 but look 20, and this is really getting to me. He prefers himself and this porn over me. He has trouble getting it up half the time with me unless there is porn on, and this hurts me terribly. I don't mind the porn, but he lies about it, even if I haven't asked. I've fallen deeply in love with this man over the years, and I do know that he loves me. This isn't the first time he's been confronted, I'd just like a classy few simple lines that leave me some dignity when I leave him (finally) in the morning. I have a child (although not his he has helped in raising her) and I don't want to end this on bad terms. I'm a very sad mom who needs serious help, fast if one can help it. Thank you in advance. That's the problem. I've suggested help. And he's always too tired for sex. Yet I still catch him at 3 in the morning with himself. I've offered him everything, and no, though he says he's attracted to me, why can't he get it up without porn anymore? He sexually ignores me, but accuses me constantly of doing sexually explicit things that I would only perform with him. I'd just like a dignified way of leaving. This isn't an easy thing for me to do. I do watch it with him. I even go shopping with him for it. I've tried sexual things with him I never even dreamed imaginable. I use all the toys he asks me to use, and I don't mind watching porn while we're doing the deed, as long as he makes love to me OCCASIONALLY. And shouldn't the oral be somewhat recipricated? On average, he gets about 5-7 BJs a week. He has fettish with obscenely huge tits. Mine are an average 34C. He would like for me to get a breast implant. I'd even do this, if I thought it would help, but somehow I think he'd want me to get an ass implant next... Just wanted to thank all for taking the time to offer your expertise. It's nice to know theres sadness relief available, even thru complete strangers. Thanks again...

Answer:
I can't imagine the pain and frustration that you're going through but as for your husband I would like nothing less than to take a bat and beat him. To have a wife so willing to please him. The problem is with him not you. That is why whatever you do is never enough. You could be a super model and it still wouldn't be enough. Just like he needs different videos to get aroused, he will constantly need more until he eventually seeks things even more extreme. The problem is, porn addiction is normal, and the % of marriages destroyed by porn addictions is rising. Just google "help husband has porn addiction" and thousands of pages will come up with stories like yours. He needs to realize that this is a problem and you are being hurt by it. All men at some point in their lives have problems with porn and in many cases it creeps into their marriage life. You need to know that it is impossible for guys to get off porn by themselves, they need help from other people. You need to beat it into him that you will leave him if he doesn't get a clue, because obviously you aren't willing to be with him if he keeps at this, and his problem will get worse if he keeps at it. If you really are sincere about helping your husband seek a church. Go find a large size church since they'll have programs for this, and you'll see other women with similar cases. You might be turned off at the mere mention of God but I plead that you try. And even if you can't seek a church there should be groups that can help, or you could seek a therapist. Your husband has allowed himself to controlled by pleasure and is enslaved to it, he is dependent on them. His addiction probably started from his early teen years until now, his addiction is now in the later stages and the next stage would be prostitution, rape, etc. Even when he seeks help, the problem won't be solved over night, and it will be hard but with lots of love and support it is possible. I wish you two the best and I hope one day your story will be a testimony to other people.

Question : How do I tell my husband, again that I'm not IN LOVE with him?
We've been together for 7 years, we have 3 children 51/2, 4, and 3. I've haven't felt "in love" with him since before the birth of our 3rd child. I've told him this before, we're trying to work it out. I thought it was working but I still don't feel like I can fall back in love with him. I have trouble kissing him, we barely have sex and the only thing we seem to talk about is the children. I have cheated on him in the past although he doesnt know. We have a beautiful house and 2 nice vehicles. I don't want to loose that but I can't move out and neither can he. I'm just so unhappy almost depressed about the situation. My parents don't agree, my husband thinks I'm playing mind games with him but I've been honest with everyone (except the cheating part, but that was the past.) Do I just suck it up for the kids and continue being unhappy or say it again and mean it that I'm done and loose everything I've worked for? We make a great family but not a couple. It's really hard to know and deal with the fact that I'm not sexually into my husband when a normal couple should be. HELP! I'm not worried about the house, Its that I created a place for my children to grow and I don't want to take that away from them. BTW - we dated 2 months before I got pregnant with our son.

Answer:
It seems like you've just about decided to give up on your relationship with him, that you feel you'll never be able to recover any romantic, loving feelings. Can you remember what you loved about him before, what prompted you to marry him? Has that changed, or have you just forgotten what attracted you in the beginning? If whatever that is, is still there, then try concentrating on those aspects of your relationship, finding a way to bring them out more. It's always easier said than done, but if you don't want to lose the life you've developed together, it's worth trying. If it was his sense of humor, try listening more when he's talking, pick up on his humor. If it was his looks, then spend a bit more time appreciating them. If it was his personality in general, again, try noticing his personality, ho9w nice it is ... etc. If what attracted you in the first place is no longer there, has changed, then THAT's what you need to focus on with him, explaining what it was and that it's no longer there, and that you'd like it back. He probably doesn't realize it's gone. I hope you are able to work it all out in a way that will allow you to have a wonderful rest-of-your-life.
