It starts off as a cage, you can order it in any colour or any size. It's for your child for things like going to the doctor because as many people know, all children hate doctors. So you just drop him off at the doctors and go back home and then, say, some burglars came. What is it in the sky? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's the cage you brought your child in except it's newly upgraded - it's got rocket boosters and machine guns that fire Smarties on the end of each wing. Your child has one controller with two buttons, one on each side to control the boost an one on each side to control the machine guns. Now he fires the Smarties at the burglars who run away. Now he gently releases him thumb from the boost button and lands and presses a button on the left hand side inside his cage to make the boosters and the Smartie machine guns fold up.

       If the rocket-powered vehicle is outside the house, then the child will have no line-of-sight to the burglar, therefore cannot shoot him, especially not with smarties, which are limited in their ability to pierce brick walls, or even glass windows.   

       On the other hand, if it's inside the house, the rocket motor will trash the house, and possibly also the child. [-]

       If I was a young chap I would want one of these.   

       What am I saying, I want one now.

       I just want to be the burglar, getting Smarties fired at me.

       Depends how fast they're moving.   

       I'm curious about how you got the child into the cage in the fir...   

       ... it has rocket boosters?? Lemme try! Lemme lemme lemme!

       I think many children would be upset at being confined to a cage in order to make them do something they hate. Presumably the doctor upgraded the cage to get the kid back in there. However these upgrades make the cage useless for its original purpose as now the kid can fly the cage away from things she hates. Bone from me for ruining a perfectly good toddler cage with rocket boosters.

       I was halfway through the idea, and I went "Wow, this has to be [crash] !
