Gallery: Angry Birds Helicopter – And 8 More Perverse Avian Product Extensions
011-helicopter
*Angry Birds* enters entirely new airspace with today’s release of the Angry Birds Helicopter -- a remote-controlled flying machine with the plastic body of the game’s red bird. As iHelicopter’s site boasts, “Why settle for a game on a tablet or phone when you can hold the real thing in your hands and bring it to life!” That’s right, people: Who wouldn’t want to spend hours flying this thing around the living room? Not only will it satisfy your strongest *Angry Birds* addiction, but it also shows great potential for antagonizing house pets. While *Angry Birds* just lost its number-one spot as the top-selling app to *Draw Something*, OMGPOP’s Pictionary-like game has nothing on Rovio’s bird-and-pig-based puzzle challenge when it comes to licensed merchandise. Here’s a look at just a small portion of perverse *Angry Birds* product extensions. $49.95; [iHelicopters](http://www.ihelicopters.net/shop/angry-birds-helicopters/angry-birds-helicopter/) (Image: iHelicopter)
