An Iranian toy company is honoring President Barack Obama's request that Iran return a U-S drone that crashed there last year.

But, it's not exactly what the president was asking for.

Instead, the company is sending a full squadron of 12 colorful, miniature drones to the White House as a present.

Iran has said the country's armed forces downed the highly sophisticated drone in December.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad gave a speech in December that seemed to suggest that Iran would not return it.
