Air Swimmers: Fish Flying Through the Air With Remote Control in Your Hands

The aircraft-balloon type things aren’t exactly “in” right now, but anyone who loves marine life would flip their lid if they saw this. They’re called Air Swimmers, and they are fish that fly through the air like a remote controlled blimp. They look on the outside as though they’d be terribly boring, but they’re quite graceful and much happier than a toy helicopter that will likely fall out of the sky and injure you if you’re not careful.

They glide and float rather gracefully and look like real aquatic life in a sea of invisible water. Just check out the video below captured at Toy Fair. These should be available in July for about $40, and will definitely be a lot more safe for your children…or yourself, should the batteries die and it fall out of the air.

Okiku Doll: A Bizzare Toy - - Amazingly The Hair of The Doll Continues to Grow Over the Years

The Okiku Doll is one very bizarre toy. Unlike dolls that can be fed and burped, this doll’s hair continues to grow!

Legend has it that, in 1918, the doll was purchased by a young man who planned to gift it for his baby sister, Okiku. His sister loved the doll and was seen playing with it every day until she died of a cold the following year. The family kept the Okiku Doll on their altar and prayed to it.

After some time, they discovered the doll’s hair had grown, and thus concluded that the spirit of Okiku resided within the toy. Since then, the Okiku Doll has made its home at Mannenji temple and still no one can explain the doll’s hair growth.

According to the temple, the traditional doll initially had short cropped hair, but over time it has grown to about 25 centimeters (10 in) long, down to the doll’s knees. Although the hair is periodically trimmed, it reportedly keeps growing back.

Spring might be here, but that is no excuse not to prepare for summer, especially if you have a particularly large yard for your kids to run about.

Give them the AK47 Aqua Fire and they ought to have a field time with their other friends around the neighborhood.
