Foxtail LED - Outdoor Throw and Catch Light Up…
$26.49 is reasonable for a dual-LED toy with solid battery life and a design that actually works, not a clearance impulse buy.
What it is
A soft foam ball with a glowing tail that you spin and catch—now with dual LEDs so you can keep playing after dark. Perfect for anyone who wants to turn backyard catch into a light show.
Why it keeps winding up in carts
733 buyers gave it 4.7 stars, and the double-LED setup with 8 hours of battery life means this thing actually stays bright enough to be worth using at night.
The glow-up your yard games needed.

A genuinely fun upgrade to outdoor catch that delivers on the promise.
The Foxtail LED takes a nostalgic toy and makes it actually playable after sunset with two separate light sources.
Outdoor throw-and-catch games live or die by whether they're actually fun to use, and the dual-LED design here (one in the ball, one down the tail) keeps visibility high without feeling gimmicky.
What we looked at
- 01Dual LED System One LED in the soft foam ball, one in the fabric tail
Having two light sources instead of one is the real win here—it means the ball itself lights up on catch, and the tail stays visible mid-air. That's the difference between a toy you use once and one that actually works at night.
- 02Battery & Runtime 3x watch batteries, approximately 8 hours play time
Eight hours is solid for a toy this size, and watch batteries are cheap and easy to swap. The on/off switch at the base of the ball means you're not burning power when it's sitting in the garage.
- 03Soft Foam Ball & Tail Design Spin-to-throw mechanism, catchable by the tail
The core appeal here is the ritual: spin it, let it fly, catch by the glow-in-the-dark tail. It's tactile and weirdly satisfying, and the foam ball keeps it safe for kids and adults playing together.
