Sonic themed Kite

Tags: Kite Sport United States 1992

Here is another Sonic themed kite. It's different from the previous kite, and is about 4 feet long when you open it out. It's by "SkyFlier" & comes with a reel of nylon cord. The package says "Flies within seconds". (if you know what you're doing) This is a Diamond Style kite.This was also made in 1992, (like the other kite) & is also rather rare. Plastic kites like this can be damaged in falls/flying & are also large/harder to store. 

The back has instructions for setting it up/flying it, and the front has the photo of how the whole thing looks when it is out.
It has 'arms crossed' Sonic stock art. But, look at the background, it's a 'paint brush swipe' on white, but interestingly they chose quite a bright pink for the color. Sonic+purple is the least common combo, but Sonic+pink is probably next on the list.
The kite itself is probably that 90s fairly thick plastic material, with plastic crossbars. It looks like it gives you a green handle reel of kite string as well, so that it is ready to go right out of the package. This is an interesting old item to see.

In the gallary you can see what the kite looks like when its out of the package. It has a sort of jagged pink shape for the background. The holes are there on purpose to let the wind through so it will fly properly. Look at the bottom of the photo, that's an electric outlet...so you can see that this kite is actually pretty big. Spreading it out on the wall makes it like a shaped classic poster to decorate with!
