24" Penguin Expanding Magic Ball Sword

Snagged this for a carnival prize and the kids went absolutely bonkers when it expanded from a tiny ball into a full 24-inch sword. Having three AA batteries included was a lifesaver since we could play with it right out of the box, and the fact that they’re replaceable means this will survive more

My nephew was thrilled to get this as a carnival prize, and the included AA batteries meant he could play with it right away. The penguin design is cute and the sword extends to a good 24 inches for pretend battles.

The expanding mechanism is surprisingly sturdy for a carnival prize, and my kids were thrilled when it popped open. Having the batteries included meant no last-minute scramble before the party.
