Resident Evil Umbrella Corporation Capcom Automatic Umbrella

This is NOT a toy!!! At least I would never let my kids play with it, speaking as a parent of two (along with 20+yrs of babysitting) I do not consider this a toy. With that said, this is an awesome product. I haven't had much chance to test it's wind resistance, but it keeps me dry in the endless drizzle that is Seattle WA. My 12yo (who's obsessed with anything Resident Evil) would rather go out with me for a chance to hold it, than stay home and play video games.

Authentic and Durable Umbrella, it does it's job well. I just wish that this was a bigger size for the price that they charged.

I always thought umbrellas were boring utilitarian items until I saw this one. If you have ever contemplated dressing your kid as a Racoon City police officer for Halloween (we opted for an ordinary fireman instead), this umbrella is for you. My husband, who has played the franchise since its inception, loved it; my son, who is too young for RE, liked the color and size. One thing I did not expect is that the red is not a uniform color - it is darker along the bottom of the umbrella and lighter on the top. It looks far nicer that way than if it had been a solid color. This is the best looking umbrella I have ever owned, and is high quality. It is not automatic but the manual control is easy to work. You can definitely use this as a sunbrella if you are getting impatient for it to rain.

Looks good, but not really waterproof, or very resistant . Would not use it in a good Pacific Northwest rain.

Ever since the Apocalypse, I've had need of this umbrella about a half dozen occasions; 4 rain related, 2 flesh eating zombie.The colors of this are fashionable, but not so bright as to catch the eye of the living dead. Fairly solid too, don't imagine this would fold except under the strongest of winds, or if used in a swinging motion to fend off walking corpses...thrusting motions through the eye are both effective and maintain the integrity of the umbrella.Fabric, as expected, repels water and is reasonably blood spatter resistant. Provides no protection against t-virus, sadly.

This item could not be returned after January 31. I purchased for husband for January 18th birthday. We opened it and looked at it and bottom tip was broken off before or during shipping. Tried not to let bother me so put it in truck for a rainy day. Last Wednesday, the 4th of February, it rained enough to use. I opened it, and it would not stay opened. item was broken. Since this was already WAY overpriced at $70, this is unacceptable.

It's a very large Umbrella! I'm very, very happy with it. I take it with me all the time. It's great for blocking the sun, as well. During the rainy days, it's proven sturdy as heck. The wind can be blowing at a pretty tough speed, and the umbrella will resist it very well.

I own an umbrella from the umbrella corporation...what more is there to say about this thing? If you don't know the movie, then this is nothing more than a normal large umbrella. For those who like the movie and games, then this is iconic and cheap for what it is. Quality made, handles Georgia downpours quite well.
