Air Swimmers-Helium Blimp RC

I recently received an Air Swimmers- RC Blimp by William Mark Corp., this is a remote controlled toy like no other. The Air Swimmers are exactly what you can imagine them to be, fish that “swim” through the air, hence the name in which they are given. As of now there are two models the Great White Shark and a Clownfish, (Nemo) for people who don’t know fish. shark
These RCs are loads of fun, the initial setup looks daunting but the included instructions are great, plus there is the web address for an instructional video. Of course you need a source of helium, you can get that just about anywhere, I personally went to Toys’r’us and purchased a disposable tank of the stuff but you can go to basically any store that sells balloons. The only issue I had was with the included 3M tape needed to assemble the toy, the issues were that half of the included extra sticky tape had the sticky side rip off, which in turn would not allow the supporting tape to hold the parts on the Air Swimmer as it is not strong enough on its own. Luckily there was enough to operate the toy.
Anyway, after the tape fiasco the Air Swimmers shark was a blast and it would make an excellent gift for the Holiday season. Make sure you get lots of AAA batteries for endless amounts of happiness. Air Swimmers take(4xAAA).
www.Airswimmers.com for instructional video and ordering information.
www.amazon.com for helium tank if you want to order it, but I suggest going to your local grocery, florists, party store, the Toys’R’us near me had it.
