Sky Dancers flying dolls

Every Sky Dancers flying doll travels with her own launcher. She clips onto the top, you pull the cord in one smooth stroke, and the foam wings under her arms open the moment she leaves the base. She climbs, spins, and comes back down in a slow twirl that kids run to catch.

We kept the 1994 idea untouched: no batteries, no charger, no app. The power is the pull. What changed is the cast — new fairy dolls from the Enchanted Garden, the Gemstone Forest and Sugar Valley, each with her own colours, wing print and launcher shape.

From the dance academy to your launcher

Our flying dolls have always had a dance floor behind them. In the 1996 animated series the Sky Dancers were five students of the High Hope Dance Academy — Jade, Camille, Slam, Angelica and Breeze — taught by the widowed Queen Skyla. When Sky Clone came after the Sky Swirl Stone, Queen Skyla called her students into the Wingdom and they danced in the sky to protect it.

The series was released on VHS and later on DVDs, and many of those boxes came with a doll inside, so a whole generation met Jade, Camille and Queen Skyla twice: once on the screen and once spinning off a launcher in the yard.

What the new flying dolls keep

• The dance: every doll still leaves the launcher in a pirouette and lands in a twirl.
• The pull: one cord, one stroke, no batteries — the same as the dolls released in 1994.
• The wings: foam wings tucked under the arms that open in the air.
• The worlds: where the series had the Wingdom, our new dolls come from the Enchanted Garden, the Gemstone Forest and Sugar Valley.

Which doll dances like which student?

Fans like to match them up. Fuchsia Fantasy has the bright confidence of Slam, Turquoise Twinkle the calm of Breeze, Purple Licious the playfulness of Angelica, and Lovely Luna the poise of Jade at the barre. Queen Skyla would approve of all four — the five students only ever needed music and open sky.
