Monkeys are funny. Monkeys dressed as superheroes are even funnier. Flying monkeys dressed as superheroes are hilarious. With these incontrovertible facts in mind we've been searching high and low for such a simian for some time. And wouldn't you just know it, we've found one!

Ladies and gentlemen, introducing Screaming Flying Monkey, a cuddly furball that, as well as conforming to the above criteria, is surely a top contender for the most pointless yet entertaining toy in history award.

Simply put two fingers in the little pockets in his paws, pull his super-elasticated bungee arms back and let him go. He'll then fly a good 25ft or more, issuing blood-curdling monkey screeches from a hidden speaker as he soars over startled colleagues and scares flying-monkey-phobics (course they exist) senseless.

We'd go so far as to say that catapulting Screaming Flying Monkey across the office is, quite possibly, one of the few activities worth getting fired for. After all some things are just so silly you can't help but love them. Yes, this gangly primate is about as much use as a spoonful of treacle tractors but, in the sheer entertainment stakes, he puts most executive toys to shame.

You don't have to be an office bod to enjoy the airborne shenanigans of this loudmouthed crusader. Flinging Screaming Flying Monkey is seriously addictive in any environment. Indeed we have it on good authority (from some bloke down the pub) that many world leaders use this 'ooh-aah-ing' plaything to diffuse awkward situations. If only.

But don't just take our word for it - get ordering and witness the awesome effect Screaming Flying Monkey has on onlookers, fellow flingers and unwitting targets alike. Look out, incoming monkey!
