Playmaker Toys Flingshot Slingshot Flying Screaming Monkey

Hilarious in my husband’s arsenal to play with his grandson when visiting. Bought him a backpack full of fun and craziness.

I bought this as a random, funny gift for my boyfriend because it was inexpensive, the reviews were good, and it just sounded like fun! After he said he liked it, I proceeded to buy one for my brother for his birthday, and my whole family loved it. If you are able to fling it properly (I had trouble and couldn't make it go very far), it is worth a TON of laughs!!!! Careful if you have dogs, though- our labs went crazy and wanted it as a toy SO badly. I know that if we allowed the dogs to have the monkey, it wouldn't last very long. It seems pretty durable for people purposes, but for dog purposes, I can see it being shred to pieces very easily. In sum...if you're looking for an inexpensive, fun, random gift for someone, this is it!

It very unique and nice 👍🙂

He loved it

Once in a great while, you buy something for the dog that she carries around for weeks, months, years. The screaming monkey - for good or ill - is one such toy. We became acquainted with the screaming monkey when visiting a friend a couple years ago. My dog was rustling the stranger's toybox when she came upon the monkey. She pulled it out of the box, shook it, and it screamed. Dinner was briefly interrupted for the humans, as they tried to figure out exactly what or who was in distress. The dog discovered that shaking or throwing the monkey renews the screaming. Quickly the two dogs were sent outside with their inanimate companion. Needless to say, my dog was given permanent possession of the thing, if only to make sure the contact didn't awaken a new interest on the part of their dog. At three in the morning, I sometimes hear faint screaming in my back yard, as my dog romps about in the dark. The neighbors have been briefed. The letter carrier has commented. When I make my bed, I often find it hidden under a pillow or stuck with the blankets at the foot of the bed, although I didn't put it there. Eventually, the batteries ran down (which took over a year, and several thousand screams) and the fabric wore, and the body yielded to intensive chewing. I searched for a source for a replacement, and found it on Amazon, at a very good price. Minor quibbles: The cape and mask add nothing. Fortunately, they're easily chewed off and left in the back yard. The slingshot feature adds nothing. But so what? Even if we don't consider my dog's welfare, I can say the purchase price is repaid twenty times over by watching my four-year-old dog romping across the back yard, flinging her monkey into the air, and then pouncing on it as it screams. Sometimes she places it in a hole. Sometimes it gets caught in a bush. Sometimes it's under the couch. It's all good.
