Flying Monkey SC7350 Plush Action Toy

My partner LOVES monkeys so when I saw a flying monkey, in a cape, that made monkey noises I thought “what’s not to love?”It turns out the only lovable thing about this monkey is that it is a monkey.The sound it makes is terrifying, disturbing and made my partner ask “why is the monkey screaming?! Is it ok?!!”. I quickly shoved the plastic battery separator back inside to stop it making noise.In addition the toy is very poorly made. It doesn’t actually fly, the bands snap, and the stitching looks like it was done by a 4 year old.All in all this was a waste of money. I wish I could get my money back and buy my partner a nice cuddly monkey but they love monkeys too much to let me send this one back to “that horrible monkey torture factory it came from”.

This is my second flying screaming monkey after the first one was stolen from my office. They are great fun to slingshot across the office and terrify members of staff. Elastication between the front paws and arms, you pop your fingers in the pockets on the paws pull back on the legs and let it rip, screaming it's monkey yells as it sails majestically through the air to the shrieks of some unsuspecting member of our team.Would have been five stars but one of the slingshot bands has a tear and so I have to be careful with it, still a pretty robust nuisance maker and a great price.

Everybody must have a flying monkey!!!! We have given many away as gifts. They make fun conversation pieces. They create a little surprise the first time it squeals as it flies past you. Great fun for old and young a like. Our grandma friend has two that sit in her window sill until her grandkids come for monkey races.

Oh, these are the bees knees. I have been buying them over the last few years and really appreciate the product innovation and development. The monkey's mask is now backed by sturdy clear plastic, the cloak is now detachable with a rather sophisticated elastic fastening. A slight problem is that sometimes the monkey's eyesight is obscured when the mask slips and he tends to fly off course to somewhere he shouldn't be - but somehow this just adds to the enjoyment.The early versions were good, the improved later versions are excellent - no family should be without one......

Haven't played with it yet as it is a gift for my nephew - arrived in a jiffy bag as shown in the picture. My head was expecting something a little bigger than it was but again for the price - cannot complain

Waste of money, lasted literally 2 minutes before the hand came off. Makes an awful noise, like a screaming, dying...thing?!? Actually glad it's gone to monkey heaven(the bin!).

If you love a monkey, then you'll go ape over a flying one. Apart from the fact that a monkey isn't an ape, of course. And now I sound like a really sad geek who likes silly toys. About right....

Bought as a present for a 5 year old and he said that it was his favourite toy
