If you follow All Hallows Geek on Instagram, you might have seen the post below in my feed the other day. While on a recent shopping trip to Walmart, I came across these new Beetlejuice and Pennywise Car Buddy inflatables. The post comments quickly filled with everything from excitement to bewilderment, but one thing is for sure: they are attention-grabbing.
A completely new concept to me, a Car Buddy is apparently a self-inflating Airblown® Inflatable from Gemmy Industries that lights up and can be displayed in your passenger seat. This week the seasonal lighting and decor maker officially announced the two inflatables I found at Walmart along with The Sandworm from the film Beetlejuice.
The stylized Pennywise and Beetlejuice Car Buddy inflatable passengers are exclusive to Walmart, and The Sandworm is exclusive to Seasons Inflatables.
A Witch and Reaper Car Buddy are also available at Seasons Inflatables and Big Lots.
Gemmy Industries’ Airblown® Inflatable Car Buddyâ„¢ self-inflates in seconds and lights up with a bright, energy-efficient LED. It includes a 12V plug-in adapter and fits securely in the passenger seat.
