WowWee and Disney Release Flying Tinker Bell

Written on Oct 15, 2008 by Brian and filed under News, WowWee

WowWee, in cooperation with Disney, has released a flying Tinker Bell fairy based on WowWee’s FlyTech  technology. Fairies fans will get to fly Tinker Bell around indoors later this month when the fairy hits store shelves for $39.99.

FlyTech technology features graceful flight patterns and enchanting wing design, making TInker Bell an elegant, easy-to-use vertical flyer. Tinker Bell is equipped with a flower wand remote controller designed specifically for children’s hands and a decorative stand for storage when she needs to rest her wings. With the wand, users control the height and speed of the Tinker Bell flyer with ease, allowing her to soar, dive and glide. The wand also serves as a power source with an LED charge indicator – 18 minutes of charging gives Tinker Bell a magical power boost allowing for up to 4 minutes of flight.

The Tinker Bell flyer is constructed of light-weight, crash-resistant materials that prevent her from getting into mischief. As an ideal introduction to flight, she will entertain and delight children by allowing them to interact with a “real” Disney character. Dual-band infrared controls also allow users to fly up to two Tinker Bell flyers together in one room.

The Tinker Bell flyer from FlyTech is available for the suggested retail price of $39.99 at major retailers nationwide and is appropriate for ages 6 years and up and requires 4 “AA” batteries (not included).
