I have many, but I bout them before I got a new car... with no antenna! I still have them (you never know if they will be "retired" or something. At the moment I have Indiana Jones' hat, Animal (muppets), Haunted Mansion bat, Spaceship Earth and some others I can't remember at the moment.

Currently I have Tink on my car but in the past I have the holiday mickeys and change them out for the holidays. I haven't had a car yet that goes without a topper. My favorite one got lost in a car wash many years ago, it was from Disneyland's California Adventure and it was mickey with sunglasses on. I loved that topper, when it disappeared from the car after a thoughtless car wash adventure I almost went in after it.

Each of my 3 kids have had the graduate mickey toppers too, they go without now tho. :rolleyes: Too cool for them I guess. I bought the doggie decals for my car, the ones that have a dog with mickey ears on, so cute! I bought one for each dog in our family....6 and counting!

I have a red Ironman Explorer. Mickey Mouse in a red, black, and white football helmet dresses up its antenna. I bought it at WDW while we were on vacation last year before I ever bought my Explorer. It's a funny story, actually.
I called home to check on everything and my Dad tells me his truck is destroyed. My first thought is that there's been a wreck. But then he says my car is worse than his truck. Well, this confuses me to no end. He then explains we had a terrible hail storm. I'm thinking it's just hail and there's no way it can be that bad. Not true. The hail stones were the size of tennis balls (my mom and dad put some in th freezer for the insurance adjusters). They rained down on my poor car and totaled it. No joke. Over $4000 in damage. Granted, it was just a cosmetic total and my car was a 99 Taurus that had taken me through graduate school and student teaching. My husband and I didn't think it was really that bad and didn't even plan on turning it on our insurace. When we got home, we were schocked. The paint was flaking off around the dents. We counted well over one hundred dents in my hood. The adjuster took one look at it and totaled it.
So how does this relate to my antenna topper? Toward the end of our trip in June, I found the above described Mickey topper. My husband and I decided that if the damage was that bad (which we doubted at the time), we'd take the money from the claim and buy a red H3 (which obviously didn't work out - another great story). Regardless, we were going to buy an H3 for me in the next couple of years. I went ahead and bought the topper. It is a cool little topper because Mickey's helmet looks like the helmet our football players wear at my high school. (I'm a teacher.)


Here's a picture of the hail.

Did you notice the Hidden Mickeys in the hail? It looks like the top of the leaf on the left side of the photo is touching one of the ears of one and the bottom of the leaf is touching the head of another slighty wonky looking Mickey!

I have a DLR 50 Years Anniversary one, but my antenna doesn't fit. Plus, if I did put mine on there, it would most likely be stolen.
