I’m interested in those tripod feet things
Matching with these avian themes
Man I saw this just yesterday in the same arrangement. I thought it was cool, too.
Which country?
Japan
Naha?
Nope! But the store, Nico and …, is all over the country. I assume they all have the same things on display.
Makes sense, would have been fun if we had seen it at the same place.
Oh man that is a throwback for me. I remember my dad had one just like the penguin but I think it was a duck head instead. I don’t remember the tripod feet, but that is such a good idea for an umbrella and cute with birds.
I think that might possibly be a puffin, not a penguin.
Missing colors on the beak, could be a royal penguin too.
Each colour’s a different piece of plastic, instead of being one piece with paint on, so the colouring has to be simplified, and the beak is low-hanging fruit as it’s obviously a beak even if it’s not as colourful as it should be. The shapes seem to be relatively detailed, though, and the beak shape is closer to that of a puffin than any penguin I can think of.
And the red one is actually a Macaw
Macaws are parrots.
Why is the penguin the whole umbrella (handle is the head), but the parrot is only on top of the other umbrella?
The penguin is so much better for this reason…
Maybe a contradiction between the animal shape and the design requirements for the handle. If they had given the parrot a long neck, it would have looked like an overly stretched out parrot.
