This re-issued "Flying Doraemon" is made of styrofoam and has a slightly modified "takecopter" on its head! Comes with a charger and controller, too. The controller has one button with which you can send Doraemon up and, uh, down. That's it -- up and down. But it is awfully cute... Requires a 9V battery for the controller, and 8 C cell batteries for the charger. The Doraemon itself has its own NiCad battery included, which charges in 4 minutes and runs for 1 minute of continuous flight. Doraemon measures about 20 cm tall, not including the takecopter propellers or the cloud he's standing on.
