Advantages: Funny, Entertaining, my dog loves chasing it

Disadvantages: A novelty gift that you might get bored off quickly

My brother is one of those people that seems to have everything so i always found it really hard to find good presents for him that he didnt already have. Hes a real gadget lover so when i saw this flying monkey on Firebox.com, i thought i would buy it as a little filler present.

It costs £5.95 on Firebox.com and is out of stock at the minute but will be back in stock soon. It looks quite big on the internet in the picture but when i got it, it was a lot smaller than i had expected it to be. Its really cute though and kids will completely love it.

Its a brown monkey with an eyemask and funky flying cape. At first glance, it looks just like a soft toy but when you read the instructions you will find that it is so much more than that.

The monkey has bungee arms and you place a finger in each part of the monkey arms. You then pull the monkeys arms back like you would with an elastic band.

You then let go of the arms and it flys through the air really fast (its so funny to watch!) My brother thought it was funny and used it a few times but its just sat in his bedroom ever since then.

I think its a great novelty gift but not one that we use in my house all the time. A lot of people might buy this and get bored of it very quickly.

When you catapult it across the room, it also makes a really loud screeching sound. When my dog hears it, she goes mad barking and chasing it. Its really funny to watch.

When i ordered it from Firebox they threw in a free pack of fun gums (cost about 10p in the shop) There was also an option to personalise it and this came in the form of a little card with the message typed out on it. I thought it was a nice touch and my brother appreciated that i had gone to so much effort.

I recommend buying this for a stocking filler as it is really good fun and i think its worth the money.

Summary: Monkeys CAN fly!
