I remember having a large tiger ride-on as a kid. Sadly, it's long gone. A long time ago, I saw that Intex turned that tiger float into a swim ring, and then into a bop bag. I saw one of those bop bags around and couldn't help myself but to stop and get one. However, I do not want to bop this guy, but ride on him. Does anyone know if, and where I can get it?

Name: Kitutal
Species: Cat
Location: England
Toy preference: as wide a variety as possible
Play preference: All sorts, inflating, riding, cuddling, deflating, thinking of trying popping too one day
I've been hanging around the internet for a few weeks now, but decided to try getting more active, joining more sites, meeting more people and so on. I've only recently (due to living on my own at university) started buying a lot more toys than I used to, including some quite large and unusual items, though I am still a newbie at collecting, and at spending lots of money on myself in general. I also have this silly idea to try making my own toys using tools I got cheaply on the internet. Well, it can only either fail or succeed, better than not knowing and always wondering.
That is, if it's OK with everyone my turning up here unannounced like this? https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/31595.html?view=comments#comments worried public kitutal 45477455 6 https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/31347.html Tue, 17 Jan 2012 23:57:41 GMT Newbie here kitutal https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/31347.htmlHey, I happened by and thought I would join, turns out it's decided to add random unrelated journal entries to the community as well, sorry about that.

I'm selling my Merek dragon on eBay. As i'm located in Australia, this auction is more cost-effective for bidders in Australia, New Zealand and Asia, but everyone is welcome to put in a bid.

Just thought I'd share something I found on ebay while I was browsing. For the price it isn't bad at all, but there's still a few days left so who knows what it will get up to. I'm not going for it, but I thought I'd at least link it here.

I went over to my local pool supply store to check out the floats they had, and sitting on the shelf was the CUTEST tiny little black orca inflatable EVER. I HAD to have it! And it was only two bucks as it turned out! I was so happy when I got it and then when I took it on vacation with me, I lost it.... Sucks. But it motivated me to go back and find out just what I had bought, and it turned out to be a bath-tub toy line that intex makes, and unfortunately they didn't have any more of the orca model.
Luckily they are online, but the lowest shipping cost I've found is ten dollars, which is far too much. So basically, I'm looking for these online and in places where I can snag em for cheap, and I figured this'd be the place where I';d get the most help finding them, plus I figured to those who didn't know about the puff n' plays would LOVE to learn about them and get a few for themselves, so here's some pics of the different models :3

A member of this group suggested some time ago I should think of becoming a member so here goes.
Name: vylor
Species: Human but not by choice. If I have a fursona it would definitely be a cat as I tend to react like a cat, hiss one minute and purr the next :) Plus have had a number of near misses in life so I must have 9 lives (I hope). And have always had cats in my life and probably always will.
Location: Canada
Toy preference: Inflatable pool floats in particular being a mix of creatures and a number of plane and car floats.
Others: I have been an inflatable lover for 30 some odd years and my fondness for floats has done nothing but grow. However I never thought I would ever join a group of fellow enthusiasts. Intex items have to be my favourite, especially older intex if you know what I mean. I also have a fondness for a particular Sevylor item from 15 years ago. Gotten to dislike going out as I can't stand being away from my inflatables. Married for 16 years, wife is totally into plush which is great. This way we can never leave each other as we could blackmail one another :)
Hope to get to know some of you!

I just wanted to express my deepest thanks to everyone who has pre-ordered one of the inflatable cows i've commissioned from PuffyPaws. It's only because of you guys in the inflates community that a project like this can be economically viable!
A friendly reminder that the pre-order period closes on March 5th (that's this time next week). If anyone else out there wants one of these squeaky bovines, time is running out!
Wishing everyone a squeaky weekend,

First up in today's mail:
Another JP for the collection. This is an Airfix kit, quite old. I was lucky to get this as they normally end up selling for more than I can afford. I guess the person who made these had passed on, or something, as there was several dozen models up for sale.
Next up, the new Intex ride-on. I've been itching to get my winglets on one of these for ages, since they were first announced last year. Managed to find one on ebay, and will now be looking for more :) It's about two-thirds the size of the larger two seater jet, but otherwise construction is more or less the same. Not impressed with the belly load of warnings but welcome to cotton-wool culture. The valve is also up at the nose end, rather than under the tail as would be expected.

Never mind, I found it! :) https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/23751.html?view=comments#comments public moth_wingthane 5645343 0 https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/23304.html Fri, 01 Jan 2010 06:01:26 GMT 13ft Cow anyone? xanthousdrgn https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/23304.html
When do inflatables get to big? This one is 13ft long cow being sold on ebay. Looks kind of interesting, but maybe it's too big? Btw, if anyone wants to go for it I'm not bidding on it.

I was just wondering if anyone out there knew if the vinyl used in practically all current Intex inflatables (from, say, 2006 onwards) is actually free from Phthalates? I'm thinking of toys like the giant gator, sea turtle, lobster, yellow seal, etc etc...
I ask this question not out of concern over health/safety, but because I can't help but notice how much softer and more luxurious the "Intex vinyl" has become on these newer toys.
If Phthalate-free vinyl feels this wonderful, I almost won't miss the old, pungent-smelling vinyl of yesteryear... https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/21880.html?view=comments#comments public cyrin_phin 1270934 6 https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/19433.html Wed, 29 Jul 2009 15:52:04 GMT Bye and Thanks toltolex https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/19433.htmlI just wanted to thank all of you that helped me out with advice involving my BF and inflatables.

So far I've gotten together about half of my new and unopened toys in one place:
Most of what I have here is aircraft of one type or another, the rest being sealife with a couple of random toys, like the shark ring there. This is just the tip of the iceberg though - I have 14 crates to sift through and check, plus all the space under my bed and a huge pile of random vinyl toys that's in the middle of my bedroom floor O.o This could take some time. https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/18020.html?view=comments#comments public moth_wingthane 5645343 3 https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/17796.html Fri, 12 Jun 2009 05:03:55 GMT Pooltoy test runs smylekitty https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/17796.htmlIt has been a while since I last took my toys out to the water. A few days ago, I had a chance to take a few toys to a resort up in a hilly area.
I'm gonna leave some notes here too.
Turtle - This version has improved greatly over its predecessor. From what I remember, it was rather difficult to maneuver whilst on the turtle v1. Now, it's much easier as you can paddle with your front paws while lying down. The durability also improved. My turtle held up to SIX 3-4 year-olds on its back at one time.
Shark - My all time favorite pooltoy to bring to the water. This new guy didn't let me down either. I always have this reply when someone asks me how I make it look so easy. I just tell them that inflatable sharks have this thing of sensing fear. The moment you hesitate for a second, the shark will throw you off its back. I, for one, know how to tame my sharks.
Walrus (the normal Intex, not the Walmart exclusive) - *shakes head* I don't know what Intex was thinking. The walrus is bad in design. Huge negative curves running down the neck and the back of the walrus, which are pinch seams. Also, bad pooltoy design. My walrus tips way too easily. There's just no way to stay on top of the walrus at all. Even for the young ones, the walrus needs to be slightly underinflated and someone must be holding them to stabilise the toy. I had much better success with the yellow sealion. I won't ever be taking this critter out to the pool again. I also won't be surprised if they pull this item off after this year.
PS. I still have one more post on vinyl science I'm taking forever to develop. So... just hang on, I'm not done here yet. https://furs-n-floats.livejournal.com/17796.html?view=comments#comments public smylekitty 8253907 2
