Abstract
(Marketwire - Oct. 15, 2008) - Disney's timeless fairy, Tinker Bell, is taking the fantasy of Never Land to the actual skies with the help of WowWee's award-winning FlyTech(TM) technology. WowWee, an Optimal Group company (NASDAQ:OPMR) and leading developer of innovative hi-tech consumer robotic and entertainment products, and Disney Consumer Products have brought the sassy and spirited Tinker Bell character to life, as a magical flying toy. Disney Fairies fans will get big thrills as the Tinker Bell flyer flutters to store shelves this month in anticipation of Walt Disney Pictures Tinker Bell releasing on Disney DVD and Blu-Ray October 28th.
WowWee's award-winning FlyTech line of aeronautical products launched in 2007 with FlyTech Dragonfly(TM), the world's first commercially available radio-controlled ornithopter and one of TIME Magazine's "Best Inventions of the Year" (2007). Featuring the same dual wing design to provide lift and propulsion, the Tinker Bell flyer from FlyTech brings the magic of flight to a young generation of girls. The FlyTech line includes FlyTech Bladestar(TM), the first flying toy with sensor-based navigation, and other vertical indoor flyers including the FlyTech Bat(TM) and FlyTech Dragon(TM). The line also includes the FlyTech Butterfly(TM), FlyTech Mosquito(TM) and FlyTech Moth(TM) - flyers that feature a simple launching dock instead of a remote controller.
