Or does anyone know what it is?

The thing on the end spins around like a propeller.

Winner winner chicken dinner.

Played with them as a kid.
Just did a google search and found out they have competitions with these toys.

It was our rubics cube trying to figure out the secret to reverse the propeller.  😂

I've just GOT to make one of these!  I love it when things turn up that I've never heard of - and there's plenty of laurel (and rhododendrons) on the route of my morning walk.

You can change the direction with finger pressure on left side of stick then switch to finger press on right side of the stick . Easy as pie

The cat was starting to get really worked up and I did not want it completely flip out.
