i remember having around 1970 (yes i'm old) a styrofoam and plastic hawk that few like a kite. it had plastic feet,nose and spot on the chest to attach the kite string. the rest was formed styrofoam and painted in the shape of a hawk, tail feathers wings and torso. i think it was called Soar or zoar and after i broke the string attachment i played with it in my sandpile posting it on a stick. it would fly cover for the heroes down below. who i think was major matt mason. i woould love to know what this is exactly to see if there is still one out there. So anybody know? Thanks.

Okay, everything you ever wanted to know about this thing, except the actual name. I know Mattel definitely made this because here is all the patent info. I had one of these myself, so of course, now I need one again!
Last time I had this much trouble was the looooong search for Hasbro Air Devils.
Added info, there it is on the cover of the 73 Mattel catalog. In my experience collecting Hot Wheels, anything from 1973 is far and few because the company went bankrupt that year.
