I had a childhood memory flashback after seeing the second picture in the article. I remember playing a lot with that weird eagle-helicopter aircraft when I was a kid!! I forgot completely about that toy my parents gave me so many years ago. The wings were pliable and closed-opened with a button. The claws were spring powered projectiles. At the end of its run the wings won't close anymore and the claws were gone. Good memories.
