Rhode Island Novelty Eagle Plush Costume Wings One Pair

This review is for all the parents out there buying this for a costume. This is for children, not adults. These wings have a little eagle in the middle which frankly was useless, unless your kid wants to look like they have a baby eagle on their back. If you have your child stand and hold their arms out to the sides like a T you can compare to this measurement. My kid measures 48" across fingertip to fingertip. The elastics that you slide each arm into are located at the shoulder and on the forearm. The shoulder elastics are the same size as the lower ones and are too tight so I removed them and sewed longer ones on. I also cut the little eagle off and sewed a piece of dark brown felt in its place. If your child has a smaller arm span you can cut the little eagle off and sew the two cut parts together. I'm making a bald eagle hood with white feathers so it will cover the area where the little eagle excision took place anyway.Overall this was worth buying because it saved me hours of cutting and sewing feathers into wing shapes. Now for the rest of the costume! The clock is ticking!Update: The wings looked FANTASTIC with the eagle head! I was able to fold them into an M shape with the center part pointing down and each wing folded into the shape of each arch of the M and slide it into a 2.5gal ziploc bag for storage. The M shape is perfect because if they crease it will be bent like a wing.

My 4 year old flipped out when he opened this. I love that it's a little on the big side so he has room to grow. He'll be able to wear this for years to come. It's cuter than the pictures. I love that it's plush and he snuggles with it too.

My grandson is 5 years old and he loves "active" play. Reading stories is for bedtime, watching movies is for a sick day and craft time lasts about 15 minutes depending on how messy it is. With his bald eagle wings he can run, jump and "fly" as much as he can imagine himself as an eagle. It teaches him about bald eagles without him realizing he is learning and not just playing. Whenever he thinks of something new he wants to learn about he says, "grandma, can we get online and see ____?" Under supervision, because youtube can take him somewhere he shouldn't be, we spend time together watching videos and discussing what we are watching. Then let the play time begin!!!p.s.- I am not sure why I always have to be the prey...... but that is okay with me.

These wings are such fun and they are nicely made and very affordably priced! I am used to getting Halloween costumes that are flimsy and of poor construction/materials. I was greatly surprised when these wings came in the mail for my four year old son and they were nicely made. The wings have filling in them and are plush, so they hold their shape even with a little one wildly flapping and flying around. There is an eagle head at the back inbetween the wings if you can see it somewhat in the picture, but it is cute and doesn't interfere with making the child look like an "eagle". There are two spots per arm where the costume connects to the arms...one at the bicep, and a second at the palm to allow for a secure grip of the wings. I am happy because this costume is going to be great with a couple more additions for a Halloween eagle costume, and with the wings alone it is also a great toy for playing pretend and burning off extra energy flying. My son has been playing with these wings nearly daily for a few weeks now, and they are not showing any damage or wear. They will still be good to go for Halloween. My son just turned four years old, is a bit tall for his age, somewhat slender in proportion, and these wings still fit him great! I imagine that he could age a few more years and still fit well into the wings since the attachments are elastic and the wings are not too large or small. Love these wings!!

I bought these months ago for my daughter, who is 5, now almost 6, and just loves birds and wants to fly! She has literally worn them and played with them just about EVERY single day since she got them. She has so many fairy wings and other silly flying things--but these, HANDS DOWN, are the best I've ever bought her. She's even wearing them now as I'm typing (jumping around, flapping her wings, and "flying" around the house. All of her friends who come over to play rotate through wearing them. She even wears them around the neighborhood, pretending to be a bird flying around and flapping her wings. It's so cute, especially since she's wearing usually something along the lines of a pink sparkly shirt, a purple and green tutu, zebra leggings, and red boots! I'm so glad I found these, and would totally recommend these to anyone who wants to buy their bird-loving kid a fun, durable, and well-made set of wings. I think these will fit her for years to come, and will be something that she will keep for her kids later. They're that great!

These are great wings, my daughter got them around age 4 and they are still going at 5.5years old. They was up well and the fit of the arms was perfect for us. Tons of play with them.

My 8 year old daughter is a real animal lover. She has 2 parakeets and loves birds. For Halloween this year, she wanted to be a bird. She found these wings on Amazon.com herself. They arrived and she was thrilled with them. She wore them all around the house for days. Then Halloween came and when she went to put them on over her sweatshirt, the upper arm elastics were way too tight and she was complaining. It was Halloween and there wasn't time for repairs, so she just wore it and complained. What you can't see in the photo here is how the wings stay on. They they have 2 sets of elastic - one set near the wrists and one set a little lower from the armpits. There is just not enough elastic to fit an arm and a thick shirt or jacket. Would have given it 5 stars if it wasn't for those tight elastics - maybe better suited for a 4 or 5 year old with smaller arms. Other than that, she loved it and thought it was perfect.
