Haha, ya, but you only got two eyes and they don't grow back.

That is my main worry also with these. Put eye protection on the kids when they play with it or something, protective glasses are no big deal and dirt cheap.

people keep talking about a superman version... i think this is as close as we get. #10 on the list...

Should have been the Penguin, not Batman.

Wow woot..... way to give us the long shaft!

First I bought a G tablet here and then the next day Amazon dropped the price of the G tablet for to $5 more than the woot price! Not a wooting good deal you gave us imo

On the topic of this ... yesterday kids woot had this :http://kids.woot.com/blog/viewentry.aspx?id=17290

which is way cooler than a flying Batman!

This item should be on kids woot and the rc heli from kids woot on here.... fire the dude that made this mistake!

o.k. I see lot's of noise and chitter chatter. All I want to know is it worth 18 bucks which is nothing. Will it last a day, week, what? Anyone?

It seems fun even it's it for just a couple of weeks.

Am I the only one who immediately thought of Inspector Gadget?

The music in the Youtube video is the same music from the Monoprice videos!

They need to make an Inspector Gadget version!

This looks like a morph between Inspector Gadget and Batman. This will be my halloween costume next year, and I'll fly into the party from the rooftop.

I can't even determine if this item is still available! I've searched the whole website and thiws is pretty agravating!!! Tell me if you are out of stock or let me order it, otherwise do not send me a deal I can't get in on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doot doodoot doo doot Inspector Batman

doot doodoot doodooooooo doo doo

Go Batman go!

... And there's the point were I get infuriated with the theme having more doot doo doos than words.

Absolutely brilliant product description today

Inspector Gadget on steroids. It's a wonder he ever gets off the ground with all that bulk.

dude. you've been a member since february. you've already ordered 2 other items. you should know how to do this.

go to www.woot.com and

Ok, now this is just way to freaking confusing. You mean that button that says "I Want One" means you order it there? Whoa, that is just way too cool! All this time I thought it meant I wanted to buy the website!

nice.

My young adult son still fancies both Batman and "toy" helicopters sooooo this is a no-brainer purchase. Bought two...backup will be used for spare parts....or become the primary if the one put into service becomes damaged badly and thus becomes the potential organ donor to the promoted backup.

is it shipped discretely?

The Joker doesn't stand a chance.

--- good question --- I'm looking forward to finding out, too...!!!

I'm really tempted to get this for cat-harassment purposes. It seems more intimidating than a a run of the mill mini-copter. It's a freaking super-hero! Sure to instill fear into the feline heart!

Yes folks, this IS Inspector Gadget... after he started using 'roids. So stay away from drugs, kids, and helicopter parts.

Sideways, forward, up, and down? So 4 directions? Are you sure sideways doesn't include left AND right? Wouldn't that be 5 directions? Amazon is ruining woot!

But what about shark repellent!?

fed ex still shows it as not shipped..what gives?

jnevil wrote:**Shipping Update**

Knight Flight Batman has completely shipped via FEDEX SMART POST. All tracking has already been emailed out. You can also find your tracking number by following this link and use your ORDER NUMBER as the reference number.

FEDEX TRACKING

My tracking number still shows as not being shipped. It only shows as shipping information sent to Fed Ex on 4/21. When I called Fed Ex, they said that means woot made a shipping label but the product has not shipped yet. I called them on 4/27. Please advise of the status.

Anyone else having problems getting it working? I bought two. Put 6 fresh batteries in each remote, however, the remotes won't charge the "batman" and the remotes won't turn on... Very disappointed to have two non-working batmen!

Any suggestions?

And yes, I checked to make sure the batteries are in the correct positions.

Wow, you too huh ? Mine arrived 2 days ago, and was DOA right out of the box. THe handset controller will not work at all, no lights at all, and won't charge the Batman. I too tried different sets of batteries, all brand new. My batteries are installed correctly too.

Very disappointing.

Well my girlfriend got me this and I instantly broke it. It's still fun even if i can't control it!

Exact same here. Brand new batteries...nothing. Seems to be a little red light inside the Batman blinking as if there is a bit of residual charge. No response whatsoever from the control box.

Now what?

Came yesterday. Opened this morning and having the same problems!

Ready to cry cause I was so excited to get the bat copter up and going!

I got mine today, charged it, set it out on it's first flight only to have one of the counter weights snap off.

It did not hit anything, bump anything, and had the weight intact when I started the blades.

Just glad I tested it before I gave it as a present to my son!!!!!!!

I also had what appeared to be a DOA Caped Crusader. No signs of life from the controller. Double-checked the batteries, they were in correctly, so I rolled them a few times, pulled them out and put them back in and the thing came to life. So Bat Boy is charging now. I'll probably destroy him on his maiden flight, but at least it looks like he may have a maiden flight.

Now if he only lasts long enough to torment my coworkers, he'll be worth every nickel!
