RubiesRubies Unisex Adult Mechanical Costume Wings, Red Devil, One Size

These wings are great. When folded they’re pretty unobtrusive, and when flared they’re spectacular. I’m 6’ and wear a 48” jacket and they still look impressive on me.They don’t feel super sturdy, as other reviewers have noted, but I personally didn’t have an issue. If you’re concerned about that, it would be pretty trivial to replace the screws with better ones from the hardware store and replace the strings with thin cables, would be like $5 and 30 minutes of work.The only downside to these is the size of the straps that hold them on. The wings are sized for an adult, but the straps seem child sized. I managed to squeeze them over my arms, but it was a two person effort. This would be easy to fix by getting some cheap nylon strap and making longer straps.

10/10 I used these for a dragon costume they were amazing. The open feature was perfect for this production. They held up really well with two different Middle School girls wearing them for six shows and dress rehearsals. They look amazing and I got a ton of compliments on the costume.

Worked well for what I used it for! Unfortunately, it cannot hold a lot of weight and is prone to snapping. My fault for not calculating very well what it can handle :(

I bought these wings for the framework. I removed the fabric and constructed my own wings. I was concerned the frame wouldn't be strong enough for heavier fabric, but I was surprised by its durability! These are great if you want to make your own wings but do not have time to construct your own frame first.

I like the mechanics, using them as a base for other wing. Had to change out the straps though cause they were tight

My son loved these. They were pretty amazing. He even wore them to school, he is a sophomore. He raised eyebrows everywhere, and he even got an amazing smile from a teacher across the hall conducting class who usually doesn't deviate...stood completely still watching my son slowly open these great sized cool looking wings, his own students got up out of their seats to come see haha ... distracted his own class! Sooooo many compliments, and made my son happy as he paid for them with his own money to create this year's dream costume! They will however not last long. One gust of wind (and I imagine many other incidences) quite easily broke one wing from operating. So for the price, and if you don't mind a one time use and you're careful (and it's not windy) you're good!!!UPDATE SUMMER 2021- He's still talking about these wings and wants to use them again. He did fix the one wing. I don't know how. Here are some additional close up pics from today after seeing so many questions about them. The two pull cords are separate and they crisscross on the back attached to a plastic board centered on the back between the wings. Pulled separately they elevate (open) one wing at a time or both together if you choose to pull at the same time. There are two plastic tubes the cords thread through on their way to the wings. There is a black tank he has put over this for his next costume and that is what the extra black fabric is that you see. There is NO cover over the back of the wing mechanism.

Fits well. These were the only adult wings I could find for my Halloween costume last year. Most wings I found were either for kids or dainty ones that were too small. I needed large, imposing wings that would be intimidating. These ones delivered. The shoulder straps are a little tight, definitely need another person to help you put them on. But they can be removed without assistance. Overall great product

They look great, but I lost the nut/bolt that holds it together in a short time. I got to open the wi ngs a few times, and that was about it. It was a tight fit, but they stayed put for sure.
