Had to do some fixes. Now it works great..
Mine came packaged up in a white plastic seal-wrap. EDIT COMMENT at bottom.One of the wings was broken upon delivery to my home, because of being delivered in only a white plastic wrap.I took out the broken plastic tube chunks, and then gorilla-glued the tubes back in place. Now it works great... except for, I gotta cut the straps and make them bigger for my 6" 195lbs mansize... With stock straps is like... Trying on my girlfriends sports bra and trying to take it off, terrible experiences. And so these wings are awesome.These wings are awesome. I figured out it is best to crisscross the cords as photo to get an easier pull - to extend the wings.EDIT: So I already fixed the broken wings when it came shipped to me. Then the wings further broke from the Seattle wind as I was testing out the costume early day.I went to a Halloween store to pick up super glue, sewing kit, and tiny safety pins.I pinned the elastic strap back on the wing part. And then i noticed that screws were missing on the wing part. I used some rebar tie-wire (i previously work in construction) to tie in place of the screws.And to get the straps to fit me, I cut the bottom of the straps and used more rebar tie-wire to extend the elastic straps. I am 6' and weigh 195lbs and wear extra-large to xx-large shirts.I know I wore it last year. But I think I will wear it again this year with some mods. 1. I might put some motors on it so that it can extract and retract the wings with a push of a button. 2. And then I really want to add some kind of glow lights like LED or maybe just use glow sticks.

These were a hit!!
Great wings, went as a bat to a Halloween party and got best dressed with these, bat ears and some makeup! The wings are fun and work great! As an adult I had to replace the elastic straps with longer ones to fit me more comfortably but that was easy. Would recommend them!!

The fabric that makes up the wings is kinda cheap ...
The fabric that makes up the wings is kinda cheap and fraying, but the mechanism works really well. Just wish the elastic straps that go over the shoulders were looser, it's hard to get on and off.

A bit smaller than you expect but an Awesome set of wing, none the less! They work great! They look great!!
They are actually quite a bit smaller than I thought they were going to be. But I still love them!Of course this is me so I bought them mainly so I could see how they work, take them apart and put them back together in a more desirable me kind of way, smiles and laughs.But they are great, they are light weight, collapsible so they store easily and they function perfectly.They are more child sized than adult sized, so if you are not a smallish adult, they may look proportionately small for your body.However if your crafty in any extent, you can take this frame work and make what ever wings you want. They are simple and elegant and easy to repair if anything breaks by the look of them. Mine came fully intact and functional and nothing has broken on them to date. However heavy jostling could damage them if your in a crowed. You will also want to pick up some fabric edge glue, from any fabric store, to stop the bottom edge of the fabric from fraying. For the best look the edge can not be sewn and there for with out treatment it will fray. They stuff to fix that is very cheep and you can just ask the counter person for that stuff that makes and unfinished edge not fray and they will know what your talking about. ;)Enjoy your wings!

I like the design of these wings
Overall, I like the design of these wings. They were slightly smaller than I thought they'd be looking at the picture, and I"m 5'9". That model must be tiny! But they still looked good.I DID have a problem with quality however, which is why I only gave 3 stars. The left wing leading edge rod was detached from the swivel joint when the product arrived, and no amount of glue would fix it (the plastic was not glue friendly). Luckily I had enough time to use epoxy and let it cure for 24 hours. Also, the cloth for that wing came off where it was glued down to the harness. We fixed it with a glue gun and it worked. But the quality was definitely lacking here...

Wing was broken
The wing was broken when it arrived. Unfortunately I needed it for an event that night (1/10/23). So I spent hours fixing it by drilling a tiny hole in the wing section, inserting wire, using strong glue and tape. It worked but unfortunately because I spent so much time fixing them, I had run out of time to complete my makeup so I ended up not going to my event that I bought I ticket for. It was so disappointing that I spent so much time and money on this.I can’t return them because I had to modify them to fix and then match my costume. But it would be EPIC if the company made up for it by sending another pair…I am sure I could find something to do with them in the future since I dress up for Halloween too and like to win contests!Other than the wing being broken, they were as I expected. Decent for the price and I loved that they moved. Would have loved a matching tail too!

For the price
The sewing was inaccurate enough between the two wings, that it creates a crease and fold on one side that's pretty difficult to manage alterations for... we decided not to, and to let it be as decent as it is.5 star rating because they're affordable though!! They work, and likely will for a long time. Everything I've always needed! haha

ali piccole
Le ali sono piccole, a misura di bambino, ma il meccanismo è buono e funzionante. Per il lavoro che dovevo fare mi sono andate bene,ma per un costume da adulto le sconsiglio.

My experience of this item is that it is of poor quality. I used it twice for a couple of hours each time and the piping in one wing completely broke and the other was fractured and showing stress on the bit still holding it together. (see photos). In my opinion this item is not worth the cost. However, if you want a once use item and have money to burn then this might be what you want. If you want something that actual lasts a short while or is actual worth the cost then this is not for you.I was also informed that as I had worn the item there would not be a refund.

Similar to other reviews...
I read the reviews about these being DOA when other people bought them, but I bought anyway because they're really neat. When I opened them a few weeks after delivery (because they weren't delivered in time for Halloween) I discovered one of the wings was broken and the join. Again, based on the reviews, I was taking my chances, as this product seems to have a higher than usual incident of broken on arrival. This was no exception.
