Inflatable of the Day 4/28
10This one is a little bit different from all the others…rather than a sealed vinyl inflatable, this guy is a nylon forced-air design. Meet the one and only Carfax Car Fox! He stands at an impressive 9 feet tall, and like your ‘Airblown’ holiday inflatables, he is inflated and kept puffy using a big electric blower fan, in this case residing in one of his sneakers. Car Fox here came from a local auto dealership, where he was used only a couple times before they upgraded to the massive 30-foot version…so I got him for a steal, as they say in the business! These days, he mostly advertises for my inflatables panels at conventions, as seen in the second picture.

So…you stole him?
@therealjrn No, not quite haha. The dealership sold him on eBay
So … you two ran off together to a convention?
@f00l I suppose you could say that!
Megaplex? Wait, that’s a --furry-- convention. Does that mean that you’re…?
@Bandrik
@Bandrik @PooltoyWolf like it’s a secret!
@PooltoyWolf Hahaha! Perfect response. XDDD
@PooltoyWolf @RiotDemon Hahaha, of course, and what a secret it is! I can’t tell heads from tails in this case. It’s really dogging me. Might even say it’s for the birds. Making my vision go all fuzzy. Now if you’ll excuse me, I got a dinner to go wolf down.
:3
@Bandrik I thought so uwu
@PooltoyWolf I once spotted a big “uwu” decal/sticker at a local restaurant, in their kitchen. It was on the stainless steel dishwasher unit. I didn’t say anything, but I knew what it revealed. And it made me happy. :3
@Bandrik @PooltoyWolf so I’m guessing PtW isn’t the only one here?
@Bandrik @RiotDemon We hide in plain sight o3o
@Bandrik I need one of those!! Oh, the places I could stick it…
@PooltoyWolf Hmm. Well I have a vinyl cutter. I suppose I could make some, haha.
@Bandrik OwO
Can’t wait until you get the 30 foot version.
@yakkoTDI Maybe one day
You need to find him a big t-shirt to cover up that logo.
@RiotDemon I’ve thought about it!
You need a Meh t shirt on him.
@CaptAmehrican Can we get Meh to make a shirt in his size?
I once had a celebrity inflatable, but he was a gift for my niece. I want to say he was a little over 3’ tall because I recall her sitting on him and he was taller than her, much taller.
@tinamarie1974 I actually have one of those Snoopy pooltoys laying around somewhere! I got him from Target a few years ago.
@tinamarie1974 Snoop Dogg needs his “dog bowl”, filled with a certain type of “greens”.
@PooltoyWolf that’s where I got mine too!!! She also got the dog house, but that was more of a tent and the dog did NOT fit inside
@tinamarie1974 Awww bummer!
@PooltoyWolf @tinamarie1974 duh. Snoopy goes on top of the house.
@RiotDemon @tinamarie1974 That is a fair point…
