The Unicorn Chronicles: Groovy, This is Out of Sight!

 




New unicorns have been spotted, and they are far out, man! First up is Keep the Peace, on the Classic/Freedom Series mold Fairfax. He has a lot of pink, with some blue and green on his shoulders and barrel. He has a tie dye starburst on his haunch with a huge peace sign layered on top of it. I assume the mega peace sign is present on both sides, but I could have done with the peace sign being reduced significantly. The peace sign makes me think of him as ‘billboard butt.’ The gold is not overdone, there doesn’t seem to be any glitter (yay!), and I think I spy pearliness. Still, Keepie is one I plan to buy. I am still deciding on the ‘90s Throwup (aka ‘90s Throwback) model. I decide I don’t want him, then I change mind to buy him, then change my mind not to… I think if I am having this difficult a time making a decision, he’s clearly not knocked my socks off so no need to get one. Let’s leave the ‘90s and teleport further back to the ‘60s:  





Four tie dye unicorns called the Unicorn Swirl Gift Set have popped up as well. They are each swirled with two colors, and the blue/green Warmblood Mare looks like a tie dye T-shirt I used to have (decades ago): 






It is my understanding that these colorful critters are supposed to be 2022 releases, so they are currently unavailable for order. I’m sure some dealers will be offering preorders on them, but I’m just going to wait for them to be available next year. Really looking forward to see what else is going to be added for 2022.
