My toy collection - recently started as of August 2012 (newbie)
« on: Tuesday 09 October 2012, 11:01 pm »
I recently just started collecting - I'm a child of the 80's (born in 83).  So far - I've only collected things that have a significant meaning to me and that I will always cherish for the rest of my life - I decided to not collect things aimlessly - but with meaning - that's why there are only a few things in my collection and also because I just recently started.  I collect toys from the 80s and the 90s.  

*I'm still waiting on my PC Popple and Baby Sinclaire, my Wonder Whim Doll, Hugga Bunch Doll, and more of the Flower Kids ( I adore the Flower Kids and think Cabbage Patch Dolls are really ugly - that's why I chose not to collect them).  Thanks to Etsy, Bonanza, and EBAY - I was able to find these things!!  I wish I had the advantage of great antique stores and collectible stores like in California where I am originally from - specifically SAN DIEGO (represent). Unfortunately - this so called beautiful island of OAHU, HAWAII lacks these advantages of living on the mainland!!

*Will POST MORE PICTURES when the items arrive.

Thanks for looking - I'm not fond of cabbage patch dolls - but I think Flower Kid Dolls by Blue Box are pretty!  The CPK dolls are the ones that creep me out - I got started on the Flower Kid Dolls because it was one of the first dolls that my parents had gotten me.

Aww I like your two Fluppy dogs! I just started learning of them recently. I don't know what that blue bear is in the picture though, but it is very cute~!
