Deep Blue Whale

The design of this toy seems to be loosely based on the Intex 'lil Blue Whale. The main differences are that it is larger (half-way between the blue and black orcas), has a splash pattern on some places and is a darker colour.

It's clearly produced in a cheaper manner than the Intex equivalent, and it scores poorly in air retention because of that.

Note: The ink printed onto the vinyl comes off easily, and can inadvertently be transferred from one part of the toy to another when storing folded.
