be carefull...i got one for my daughter and it will not work here in colorado...the altitude affects the helium. the directions say to use "balloon time" helium....the problem with the helium in those kits is....its an oxygen/helium MIX...not pure helium...(another way to cheat the consumer)...so i tried taking the toy to party city...they have pure helium and the girl filled it for .75....guess what...it still doesnt float...i cant tell you how dissappointed my daughter was.

lol... The heaviest items are essential.. The battery, the tail, (which is the motor drive) and the movable trolley + putty.. Used to balance the toy. It's just too heavy for this Altitude...

It would look funny, but could you tie another balloon to the shark to give it more lift? I'm sorry it isn't working for your daughter, but thanks for the heads up! I live at altitude as well, so sounds like it won't work for me.

Is it set up so you can refill the shark? Or is it one fill only?

Thanks again,

Dave

I got one for my niece this Christmas, She's 5. I got her the shark, because if figured she must be tired of soft fluffy stuffed animals.

She opened it and ran to her mother "Mommy, it's scary!"

I got the dirty looks and nothing more said this Christmas.

My 7 year old nephew wrote that he loves the stilts I got him!
