Antenna Topper - I need a Tip

[drjamba]

If this post doesn't belong here, PM me and let me know where it fits best...

During our trip last week, DD16 bought a Stitch antenna topper. This is one of the few that I remember that has a real face. The others seem just to be different colors of Mickeys.

Which way should the face be turned? If I turn the fact toward the rear of the car, then people behind us will be regaled by his Stitchness, if the face is forward, people won't see him coming.

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Well . . I don't know the proper topper etiquette but in my opinion I think he should face forwards, otherwise he would appear to be riding backwards and I for one would think he had twisted or been put on wrong.

While I'm not an expert on the matter, I would say forward facing. Your question cracked me up.

We have a POTC topper that is turned to face us so we can see the pirate face as we travel. However, I think it comes down to what you prefer.

I originally put my Mickey-in-a-Chicago-Bears-helmet antenna topper facing forward, but I've discovered he likes to move in the wind and will face whichever way he darn well pleases. Could be because he's plastic rather than foam...

I have a bunch of Mickey antenna toppers that I like to switch out for the different seasons/holidays. (I have a "sunshine" Mickey with sunglasses and a pirate Mickey and a jack-o-lantern Mickey so it's obvious which is the face. For some reason, it just makes sense to me to have Mickey facing back. As you said, that way people behind me can see him. It never even occured to me that he should face forward.

I have Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, and Eeyore antenna toppers and I always have them face forward. Otherwise, they couldn't see where they're going.

I'm with you! I have a collection of about 20 antenna toppers that I switch around to the holidays/seasons or whatever. I always face them back so people can see them.

Here is my topper. It just makes sens for him to face forward. I have noticed that he will turn to face forward even if we are going in reverse so I think he has a mind of his own anyway!!!

I love your Stitch antenna ball. Where did you get this one? Too fun!

I guess I would say forward facing but luckily my antenna topper has no face so I don't have to worry about it.My Mickey head looks the same coming and going.

OMG I love your stitch antenna ball! where did you find him? I had one similar to that a few years ago but he swung around the antenna (could put another ball on the top of the antenna) and someone stole him! I would love to have one like that!
