Oh my god look at this thing.
This was sold in the 60’s or 70’s as a “purple people eater.” It lights up. It swallows and poops out the little happy baby people.
I cannot get over the design. Like a hairy, warty man-jellyfish with a prolapsed eyeball.
WHY AREN’T TOYS EVER STILL THIS COOL.

This Weekend’s Hashtag Project: #WHPumbrellas

Weekend Hashtag Project is a series featuring designated themes & hashtags chosen by Instagram’s Community Team. For a chance to be featured on the Instagram blog, follow @instagram and look for a photo announcing the weekend’s project every Friday.

Every year on February 10 an unusual “holiday” occurs in honor of an object that keeps us dry when it rains and protected from the sun—the umbrella! In honor of Umbrella Day the goal this weekend is to capture photographs of parasols or umbrellas. Channel the classic film “Singin’ in the Rain,” or your inner Mary Poppins, and have fun incorporating this versatile prop into your photos!

PROJECT RULES: Please only add the hashtag #WHPumbrellas to photos taken over this weekend and only submit your own photographs to the project. Any image taken then tagged over the weekend is eligible to be featured right here Monday morning!
