Retro Umbrella? What can you tell me?
« on: October 17, 2014, 07:48:29 AM »
I just randomly saw this on pintrest (I really should be sleeping right now lol) but when I click to follow to the source on ebay it can't find the listing, not even in ended listings.

I'm just curious, the pony on it looks like Posey (which makes it an instant want for me) but I've never seen it before and know absolutely nothing.
Can anyone fill me in?
It's almost 1am so I'm not really thinking straight, but if you by any chance have one you might sell let me know! :biggrin:

Cheers ^.^

Hmm... I've never seen it before. I know Burlington was selling mlp umbrellas a while ago, but I don't think they had retro designs...?

Maybe it was UK exclusive? It was apparently on ebay UK but I really cannot find any hint of a listing, what a mystery! :P

Oh I love that umbrella - I had one years ago before selling it. As I think perhaps the link mentions its not actually retro its am original bit of G1 merch...just very very late G1 :)

They do crop up occasionally but they were a UK only item (we do need a lot of brollies here :P) so your best is to keep an eye on ebay UK.

ha, that's the very one I have. :) That was the auction picture from the seller I bought it from. It's leaning against one of the pony displays right now.

You can't find it on Ebay because it was several months ago now. I collect merch and it's the only one I've come across so far, seems to be a UK item though I think.

As someone else said (or linked to), it's Bonbon and Starlight!

Starlight looks like herself, but the other pony totally does not look like Bon Bon. Could anyone provide a close-up picture of the ponies on the umbrella? I'm interested to see them more closely -- this totally looks like something I would want to have!
