 Neat toy; a bit fragile Jan 27, 2007
By R. Marchand
My almost-13-year old really wanted this blimp for Christmas. Unfortunately, when he opened it Christmas morning, one of the propellers and its small engine were broken off in the box. Emailing with Megatech was a little frustrating until I realized that a different tech person reads your replies. If you have a problem, copy all emails each time you respond. They did finally agree to a return. I paid for shipping back. They returned a new blimp at no cost, but it took a month. When my son started assembling the new blimp, one of the "stalks" to which the side propellers and their engines are attached broke off. I saw it happen, and it literally broke in his hand. He was being careful, and doing nothing unsual. We could have both cried, but super glue resolved the problem so that he was finally able to use the blimp. Now that it's up and running, we're all impressed. It's huge (much larger appearing than the illustration) and maneuvers very well. The lights and music choices make it really smile-worthy. I'd give it 5 stars, if not for the problems with it breaking. We have high ceilings, which is good, because the blimp would be very vulnerable outside. It's very light weight (out of necessity, I imagine) and probably not for younger children as it would never stand up to any rough treatment. It's not as sleek as the ilustration, either, with fold wrinkles across the balloon portion, although maybe it could be blown up very tightly for something closer to that effect. Don't forget you'll need to buy helium, and a tank runs around $20.

Excellent toy for indoor children's party Sep 15, 2009
By G. Lee
"glee"
I got this for my daughter's 3rd birthday party and it was very entertaining for children and adults alike. My advice is that you need to read the manual carefully. Blimp is very delicate and light so be careful flying around children, they think it's a balloon and handle it very roughly. It's great for high ceiling indoor location, make sure you weigh down and balance the blimp by inserting coins in the gondola and turn off any ceiling fan as it rip and torn the balloon part of my blimp. I've salvaged the gondola and bought a new replacement blimp 52 inch Replacement Silver Blimp Balloon Envelope For All Mach RC Airships FREE Shipping for future use. Overall, I enjoy this product and my guests were entertained. It was a huge big hit with such a simple contraption.

 Blimp overview Aug 16, 2010
By amberootie
This product is intended for adults only. My son found this online because he loves blimps and wanted it to play with. The balloon that was sent was only for one time use and was way over priced for that purpose. My boy popped it within the first hour and was extremely upset. Also the balloon was NOT shaped like a blimp but like an egg. My advise for this product is DO NOT BUY IT!. I is way over priced and is completely NOT WORTH IT!!!! IT does not look like the picture AT ALL.

Good toy, but helium can be expensive Apr 23, 2011
By Sang J. Moon
I bought this for my son's 6 year birthday. Everybody wanted to play with it. Instead of drawing on the sides of the blimp, I just taped color printouts on the sides saying Happy Birthday, and that seemed to be enough additional weighting to keep the blimp relatively balanced. The blimp is egg shaped and not an oval like in the picture, and it was much bigger than I thought it would be, but those really don't take away from the fun. The hidden cost is getting the helium to fill the blimp. You could go to a florist or department or grocery store that has a balloon section, but I didn't want to risk it getting loose and ending up in the ceiling, so I bought a retail disposable party helium tank for about $20. The skin of the blimp retains the helium well, so the helium should last as long as it would in a mylar balloon which should be at least a week. You should probably also stock up on the 3V battery that goes in the gondola because people will have the fan engines going almost constantly playing with it.
