Catapult Red

Was a gift for two boys. They love it. Might’ve added a few more ball’s to launch. Only comes with one. I used soft pom poms as replacements.

This was an awesome gift. My 4 year old grandson is into catapults...go figure. Also, he loves red. So, I did a search on Red Catapults, and this was the result. He loves finding things other than the ball to catapult. Another reviewer suggested Whoppers, which is perfect! I highly recommend this well made toy.

We have a few of the knights and horses and our boys are always playing with them. For Christmas, we got them a castle, this catapult, and a dragon, and they have played with them a whole lot. The catapult adds a lot to their pretend play. We actually lost the little ball that can be catapulted pretty early on, but our boys play with it just the same. The little brown ball it comes with looks exactly like and is the same size as whoppers, so I've thought about buying some whoppers for them to use with it, if they ever complain about it being lost.

Great with all the Papo figures. Great detail and it works!

The only problem I see is it could come with more than 1 ball and 1 rubber band. My 4 yr old is hard on toys. But it's super durable otherwise and he thoroughly enjoys it.

After about 10 minutes of play the rubber band broke

Purchased this for my son's 4th birthday party. We made a castle cake and my sister suggested using this catapult with whoppers for all the guests to attack the castle. Fantastic! Whoppers are the exact size of the ball, which is also nice in case you lose the ball. We found that bracing the catapult slightly over the edge of the table to ensure maximum lauchability was best. Everyone tried it, including all the adults and hilarity ensued. (Of course there was much 'Attack the castle' 'Aye!' 'Prepare for disaster!' comments from everyone, which might have added to the laughter). FYI, if you choose to attack a castle cake and use ALOT of frosting like we did - the whoppers just landed and stuck fast in the frosting. You really would need jaw breakers to truly destroy the castle. I guess there's always next birthday!

Lost my catapult to my 7 yr old grandson; he took it home with him. We had so much with peanuts, marshmallows, popcorn flying all over the house and parents, children and grandparents ducking the whole time. Great toys for boys and girls!
