Re: Airships

Hi,

I once had a bag of some airships that had a similar ‘cigar-like’ shape. As far as I remember they were Unique balloons. I have heard they are not made anymore. However you can always search through the various webshops and see, if you can find them.
I only ever bought the one bag, because I didn’t find them especially good. They blew up ok, but they didn’t get tight and did not make much of a bang either. I only blew them until they popped, but I don’t think they would take much other ‘abuse’ like sitting or squeezing either. Another not so great thing about them was that they became somewhat distorted when blown all up, not so much, but still not nice. Of course this is all just my personal opinion, others might think completely different about them.

Good luck finding some, - then you can judge for yourself.

Thank you for reading my posting.

Sincerely
Susie

Re: Airships

Thank you SusieDK. I have heard they might be brand Unique, searched there web site and did not find them. I think the clip they are in is from 2015.

Re: Airships

The last set of these I bought was from Kaboom Balloon. You may have to find a source in Mexico, because they were made by Payaso. I look and didn't seen them on there site.

Re: Airships

Found one pack some years ago at a local party store. Very soft and I never had problems sitting or hugging them (if you dont mind them to pop, especially in the first case). A quick google search listed me some 15“ Unique Oval Balloons at Jenny Loons online store (only in german language, I think). I did never order there, but the balloons do look like the ones I still have. And the packagesize (25) seems also fitting, although I throw away the wrapping and therfor can not be sure, cause I lost some due to... things.

Re: Airships

15" Uniques are shaped roughly like the balloons in the photo. The only other ones I can think of are the old Gayla(?) jellybeans, which are no longer made.

Re: Airships

Attached is a photo of Unique's 3 foot airship. Like others said, they seem to have disappeared. The 15 inch Unique has a similar shape and is sold by jenny loons, balloons-united and loonerworld. All of them ship internationally.

Re: Airships

I have asked the same question few weeks before..."Hi, personally I'm not so much into oblong shaped balloons and prefer these rounded ones, but my wife just fell in love with as I think Mexico/Unique airships as in the picture below. Does anybody know where can I get them? Thanks for any help".
Unfortunately I have not good news for you. For sure they are mexican loons and their producer from Guadalajara seems to discontinue them. Unique 15 are not the same that Unique airship. Finally I reanimed few ones bought in 2015 from Kaboom and bought some (in other shape) from the suppliers from Spain as Globos and Bears advised to me.

Re: Airships

Hmm...that's too bad. I really liked the Mexican airships. Was hoping to order more someday. Another great loon gone and banished to history....

Re: Airships

If you look closer on their web “Globos Payaso” you will find they are still available if you pay a minimum order of 100 dollars to make them, I live in the same city than the factory, and they told me that you need to pay for at least 500 loons in order to make them again, since those loons are not so popular now

Re: Airships

What would be the cost??
