Magical Flying Doll with Crystal Wings, Interactive Kids Toys for Ages 5 and up

If you get this it is important to know that it's very unpredictable!You can make it go higher by placing your hand or an object directly underneath.You can potentially change the speed at which it flies by how fast you move your hand in its path.It is semi random in the direction it goes, it seems kind of influenced by the direction in which you place your hand under it in order to make it fly higher. So if you slide your hand from the right to the left, it will often head to the left. But sometimes it just goes up or in other directions.If you need to grab it to redirect it's trajectory, grab it from the side around the legs. It you try to grab from the bottom it just flies out of reach. If you grab the legs, it's less likely to hit you with the wings, which spin really fast!It does hurt a little if it runs into you but it's not exceptionally painful or too awful.The unpredictable nature of it's flight and the fact that it does hurt a bit and frequently crashes into things (including you) makes it a tad terrifying.If it does crash, it will need to be turned off and back on again in order to reset it. Otherwise, it just blinks at you and won't fly.However scary and unpredictable it may be, my toddler, adult kid, husband and myself all laugh hysterically (mainly because the toddler's laugh is infectious) as this crazy toy crashes all around the house.It's easy to recharge (comes with the cord, standard USB), pretty sturdy considering how many times it's run into my walls, soft enough that it hasn't damaged my walls or my family, and my kids love it! So all in all, I call it a win!

If you ever played with those toys you pull a string and they fly into the air as a kid, this is 1000% better. Tons of fun for my 4 year old. Some reviews said that the battery life was amazing, ours only lasts about 7 mins, but it charges fast too, maybe the battery needs to like “break in” I don’t know. Even if the battery only lasts about 7 mins, I’d still say it’s worth it. Also to all the reviewers crying about it being unpredictable, this isn’t a remote controlled toy or something that just hovers in the exact same spot forever (that sounds boring). You need an open space and ideally high ceilings, it works great for us.

Bought for my granddaughters! Absolutely love these! They are so cute and fly very well and pretty high! If your granddaughter has long hair make sure her siblings don’t put it near her hair as it is spinning to fly.. will get tangled in hair.. brothers… ugh! But otherwise… cute.. and a lot of fun! Would buy again!

8 year old niece loves this. And her younger and older brothers and sisters are also very excited and entertained by it. Though it doesn’t have sensors on top or sides, so it crashes into stuff and the wings fall off. There’s a sensor on the bottom. If you put your hand under it, it goes up. So far it’s surviving the crashes and the wings go back on.

The absolute cutest toy! My daughter (and my son) played with this for HOURS. Its very easy to use and comes with a stand and a charger. My daughter keeps it right on her dresser and loves having a "fairy" in her room. My kids love that fact that when you place your hadn't underneath her (without touching her) she moves up higher. Its a fun game for them to play and keeps them occupied.

This was a birthday gift for my daughter, but I ended up taking her to choose something else at the store because we were both very dissatisfied with the product. The concept of a hovering, "flying" pixie-themed toy is nice and my fairy-crazy child was very interested - hence the birthday gift purchase. While the detailing of the doll is decent and the crystal-y egg storage compartment is pretty (though bulky and hard to open), the actual function of the toy left something to be desired. The power switch is located on the underside of the "skirt" section and is quite small, making it difficult to turn on and off with the various wing-blade sections flopping in the way. It is just plain awkward to handle. The instructions actually say that to stop the pixie you can either wait for it to run out of battery OR catch it by the legs. Just catch it by the legs, no further instruction. Well, catching it by the legs does nothing except leave you with rapidly rotating plastic in close proximity to your hand. It will not turn off if it is tipped over, only if the wings come in contact with something such as when it crashes. So let it crash or let it run out of battery if it miraculously stays airborne for that long. If it does crash, you need to switch it off and then on again if you want to have another flight - at least it has that safety feature. But here's the biggest reason we ended up ditching it, 9 times out of 10 it wouldn't take off properly. The base has a little metal prong that the pixie's feet lightly slot onto and you are supposed to launch it from there (trying to toggle the power switch then get your hand out of the way before it starts spinning 6 seconds later). Well, ours must be bent ever so slightly because the pixie leans just a few degrees when on the base...and then takes off at an angle, skittering to a swift crash landing before it can even get a foot of height. On the occasion we do get it to launch upward, it is difficult to "direct" in any way because it only senses a hand placed directly underneath it and there are no controls otherwise. It is not long for the air before inevitably banking into a wall. It says "crash resistant" but I wonder how much it can take before damage shows. Then as if to mock us, it began just getting stuck on the base and wouldn't take off at all, sideways or otherwise. It just spun like a noisy mechanical ballerina. I know I'm sounding snarky, but it really was disappointing to have a gift that didn't perform to reasonable expectations straight out of the box. Since we removed and tossed the shrink-wrapped label packaging I'm pretty sure we can't return it so I'm out that purchase plus the cost of finding another gift. And before you assume we were rough with it, my child is several years older than the recommended minimum age and I was also monitoring and assisting as we tried to give it the best chance to succeed - it just wasn't a good product and ultimately I wanted her to have something she could actually enjoy instead of this ill-conceived pseudo-drone. SO, buyer beware. In my opinion, this is a gimmicky fail that has very little reliability or fun factor in actual use.

An amazing toy that all my children love to death, but after having two of these, and the wings keep breaking off from the collisions that the toy should expect since the flying toy is really frustrating. I gave it three stars because for the price it should last more than two weeks. I’m not buying anymore.

This is adorable! Fun to play with.
