Pump Rocket Air Archer Air-Powered Bow & Rocket Set with EZ-Pull Bungee Power

Product was received for free in exchange for an honest review.


The Air Archer, with its flexible, bow-like arm, dramatically increases the power of the pump rocket launcher. To operate, simply pull back the launcher piston, stretching the elastic bow string attached to the ends of the bow. When it’s fully drawn back, let go and the rocket goes screaming off into the air at a great speed.

The Bungee Blast ramps up the fun and excitement by an order of magnitude. A patented elastic bungee cord inside the pump cylinder boosts the launching power. Load a foam rocket into one end and pull back the cylinder, feeling the increasing tension of the cord inside. Then let go. Kids will be amazed as the stored energy of the cord pushes the piston of air very forcefully, blasting the rocket out at hyper-speed.


My thoughts:

My eight year old loves this.  It is very easy to use.  He puts the foam rocket onto the one end, than pulls back on the cylinder as far back as he can, and than lets go.  And the foam rocket goes flying.  

 This is a very well made, durable toy for boys as well as girls.  The bungee pull isn't to hard for a kid to pull back on.  The foam rocket is well made also.  It is made heavy duty foam, and when it hits a harder surface, it keeps it shape, without bending or breaking.  And the rocket goes flying at a fast speed towards target intended.  

This is a very fun rocket launder toy.  My son even took his to the beach to play with his eleven year old sister with it.  She had a blast shooting it also. I, even had fun launching the rocket.  And it doesn't hurt it hits you on the body.  A definite must have for any kid.

Fly Wrapz, A new and fun twist to flying toys

"Complimentary product was received for free in exchange for an honest review."

About Fly Wrapz:

 Fly Wrapz is an innovative silicone-covered bi-stable metal band that can be thrown like a boomerang yet simultaneously it can be disguised and worn as a wrist-band. Fly Wrapz can glide up to 60 feet away and its unique dynamic allows it to fly back to you just like a boomerang. Snap it back onto the wrist and it’s secured and disguised as a colorful and stylish wristband due to the various designs and patterns available.

Our Thoughts:
My 7 year old son LOVES this new addition to outside toys. Admittedly, it did take us a while to figure out how to fly them. It's rough at first, figuring out the right way to hold it to get the height you want, etc. Sometimes it flies awesome, sometimes it flops. This, though, is with any flying toy. Regardless, he loves flying it, and has shown everyone of his friends how cool his bracelet is!

The bracelet part actually doesn't last very long. After a good two days of hard play, when you slap it back on your wrist it's not as tight, and tends to fall off. This however, again, hasn't bothered my son, as he enjoys flying it still. For the price, it's a great summer item for any boy or girl! Even the adults have fun flying them!
