    Toy platform, Phoenix, AZ $20

    Seems to me a child deserves a real platform, but at least they're thinking of us...

    Hmmmm. I wonder.....

    Believe it or not, .... it works for it's purpose of a fun activity. (not a serious workout). And it would be good for little kids with the exception that most small children couldn't reach it hung at the top of door. And it has an interesting swivel design, that drops in from the top. Actually works OK for this light setup. The one adaption it really needs is an adjustable tension strap to go around the bottom section of the vertical braces, for it kicks up off the door at the bottom. But, if you hold the vertical braces down tight, it works amazingly well. Of course the light balloon bag goes well past the edge of the board, but a bit smaller bag or larger board would fix that also. This does prove to me that a door hanger model IS possible, although it will be noisy and vibrate the door.

      You're amazing. No stone left unturned in your world. How much does it cost at retail?

        I bought it for my Grandson. I paid about $29.00 or so for the
        Stats Arcade Alley Speedbag at our local Toyrus store.

        Apparently Sears has them also.

        But remember, it is an introductory Toy of the activity for kids to introduce them to the activity and build interest, like a set of Toy Golf Clubs or A rubber pin bowling set. It's not a serious workout grade product. For just "lightly hitting" and learning the movements it will work.

        But I love the idea of the portability and design. I really think an upgraded version of "the real deal" is possible.
