Wowwee FlyTech Technology Turns DreamWorks Animation’s Bee Movie Star Barry B. Benson Into World’s First Radio-Controlled Flying Bee

HONG KONG - September 27, 2007 - Wowwee Ltd., in a licensing agreement with DreamWorks Animation Consumer Products, today announced the creation of FlyTech™ Barry B. Benson™, the world’s first radio-controlled flying bee. FlyTech Barry B. Benson is the official flying bee toy based on the character from DreamWorks Animation’s Bee Movie™, starring Jerry Seinfeld.

Bee Movie debuts in theaters on November 2, 2007 but fans can get in on the buzz before its theatrical release! FlyTech Barry B. Benson’s unique flying action and dual-wing design allow users to control his speed, direction and height using a digital remote control. Available at Radio Shack and Toys “R” Us stores nationwide this October, FlyTech Barry B. Benson is no ordinary RC flyer - he flutters, soars, dives and glides, reaching speeds of nearly 18 miles per hour. With a design that imitates the flapping-wing flight of birds and insects, FlyTech Barry B. Benson features an ultra-light, easy-to-fly design and a crash-resistant structure that can be maneuvered in tight spaces.

Wowwee Ltd. has revolutionized indoor flight with its line of FlyTech aeronautical products, including FlyTech Dragonfly introduced earlier this year.

FlyTech Barry B. Benson requires six AA batteries (not included) and comes with a pair of spare wings, spare propeller, detachable antenna, remote control and tail ribbon. FlyTech Barry B. Benson is suitable for ages 8 and up and will be available nationwide this fall for an approximate retail price of $49.99.
