Is there a Robert appreciation thread yet?

[toastymarshmallow]

Robert was a huge hit in this house. I can't post any pics as they would be too identifiable, but the two that we bought haven't been left down since 7.30am!

Anyone else?

[toastymarshmallow]

I should add that they are now called Elsia and Starlight.

[Gardencentregroupie]

Who or what is Robert?

[toastymarshmallow]

Robert the unicorn from the bargain threads.

[TaliaAlCool]

Ours was a hit too! Want to post pics but currently in bed lol
Ours is still a Robert and is beloved by 4 year old DD and eyed with suspicion by DCat

[RueDeDay]

Robert a massive success here as well - DD has not physically been parted from him since opening! Definite renaming going on in this house as well Final decision yet to be made on name though!

[DramaInPyjamas]

Can someone provide a link to Robert? I'd like to appreciate him as well

[user1471462578]

Robert is adored by dd here! He's dragged around to whatever room dd is in. Huge thanks to reastie and all on the bargain threads, I picked up so many fab ideas.

[GodlessDomestic1]

Is there a link please - would be ideal for DD's January birthday. Thank you

[lozabella]

Robert loves here too!! He's been dragged up and down the stairs so he's not on his own. We love him!

The original Robert made a Christmas Day appearance with dd2 here. A year on and she's still besotted with him.

[Duchessofealing]

Our Robert is still a Robert and belongs to mummy to avoid fighting over him between DDs(3 and 5) - DD2 spent most of Christmas Day on his back shouting gallop a neigh

I googled Robert the unicorn and came up with Adult Swim. Any further links please? I'm hoping it isn't that!!

[kelper]

Shit, if you google robert the unicorn toy you get all sorts of creepy shit about a haunted doll 😳

[user1471462578]

Ours came from toysrus but I think wilkos do the same one. Hth.

That is the original Robert, I think. But as I had to buy two I got the Argos Robert x2.

Argos Robert

[RueDeDay]

This is the one I bought, from ToysRUs... www.toysrus.co.uk/mobile/toys/animal-alley-pink-45-unicorn-soft-toy/TRUP1915820001

[RueDeDay]

Ours has been renamed to 'Pinky'... We are all about the originality in this house!!

[imip]

I have 2x Argos Robert for youngest 2 dcs aged 4 and 6. They descended down the stairs on Christmas morning seeing only Robert in the distance stealing. Dd4 was shouting, "unicorny, unicorny"! They are very happy girls!

[Doublegloucester]

I wondered if there would be a Robert thread! I didn't get one as they were out of stock at local argos when dh looked. I just hope he arrives for Valentine's!

[GoodQueenWenchEatsLess]

Ours was loved by DD too. She and DS spent most of Xmas day pretending to ride him, lying on top of him and cuddling him. Huge originality from a 4yo so his (actually, her) name is Fluffy

[LittleReindeerwithcloggson]

Ours is very loved and now called Harriet!

[Myfanwyprice]

Dd was thrilled with her Argos Robert, even though she decided she didn't want the giant fluffy unicorn (that she asked for constantly from October!) last week

Robert has been renamed candy and has not been put down, definitely a big hit

[lauryloo]

I need out more. My first thought was Robert the robot

[ZeViteVitchofCwismas]

ahhhhhhhhhh I also followed Robert and nearly got one, I think we will succumb next year though, so sweet to think of all the happy dc who got a robert .

The post that nearly swung it for me, was that Robert was a comfort toy who provided a source of comfort and safety for her dd. { festive heart melt}
