    Makes me wonder if it’s actually possible to make shaped balloons like that. Maybe with loops of strings embedded in the rubber, to prevent certain parts from inflating more than that diameter. if this is not already a thing, it should be a thing!

      You wouldn’t be able to make detailed shapes from a round balloon, like in the comic, but if the balloon was already shaped like a horse when deflated, it might be possible

        I think with enough R&D into specialized balloon-manufacture techniques, it would be possible to make round balloons that inflate into a different discernable shape. But it wouldn’t be as detailed or precise as in the comic.
