Classic Tim Flying Bird Onithopter 79000 by Tedco Toys

The Tim Bird flight performance is good, controls are easy, quality is good, it’s easy to use, and it’s fun, and cheap.

This takes flight and soars much better than the wind-up wooden airplanes. Yes, it's delicate. So handle with care. Best if an adult winds it up and just let the kids run after it to bring it back. Teach the kids how to hold it by it's body and not the wings. Don't play with it close to a house, as my heroic neighbor had to retrieve it off his roof for us.

I bought these for my wife’s grandchildren, she has not used them yet. I am so disappointed. Not in the product, but in the fact that this little bird brought my brother and myself so much joy when we were children. My mom and dad came back from a trip somewhere and brought them back for us. I was in seventh heaven, what an amazing little toy, hopefully my wife forces, her daughter, to play with the bird with her grandkids

Right out of the box the bird didn't work. There's a notch that's supposed to make it so you can wind up the rubber band and then release it. The notch was ineffective and the crank hit my finger nail about 25 times, ouch! Only worked as a glider then. I'd buy the larger version. It worked pretty well compared to this one.

This is cute but way overpriced for a cheap piece of plastic. Purchased for our cats. Our large dog is more interested. Sorry, but really can't recommend. It is very fragile for anyone.

Colors are different - but I'd know those contours anywhere! This is THE SAME wind-up flying bird toy that I had as a kid FIFTY years ago! And still just as much fun and kids still love it! It's VERY light, so it doesn't tolerate windy days well. But on a still day, take it out and have a blast!

I had countless hours of fun playing with ornithopters as a child, so I bought this for my son hoping that he would enjoy it just as much. Unfortunately, the quality of this item is severely lacking. The body is made of paper thin plastic, the wings are extremely delicate, and the winding mechanism is fragile. After a couple of successful flights, my son just picked it up by the wing, and the wingtip snapped the fragile plastic leading edge. After trying to tape it together, we managed to get it flying again briefly, although it didn’t fly quite as well after that. After another flight or two, the tiny plastic tab on the winding mechanism broke, and the handle would just spin around in circles after winding it up. Now it’s totally useless. I expected more from this item, and I am really disappointed. Would not recommend.

Did not meet my expectations.
