Hi everyone, I just wanted to ask what other people collect? At the moment I collect - G1 littlest pet shops (1992-1996) - Puppy surprise (1991-1992) including kitties, bunnies, ponies and baby cubs! - pound puppies from tonka and galoob - baby buddies.
If anyone else collects any of these and would be interested swaps or trades let me know

I don't really collect anything else! I am sort of collecting the puppies from the G1 Littlest Pet Shop, but they aren't as much fun without their homes and accessories. But I just don't want to give up the money and space for them. I just loved LPS growing up. I used to have a ton, but I think I told my mom to give them away, because I haven't been able to find them at her house If I had disposable income and a huge place for collecting, I would collect Pound Puppies too. I had a bunch of the mini ones growing up, but I gave most away except two favorites. Oh I just remembered, my sister and I collect Baby-Sitters Club books! It's more her collection than mine, but we've had a blast through the years going to second hand stores looking for them!

Oh Jenna, I'm jealous that you really only collect IMPs. I only really collect these five collections as they were the main toys I had growing up so I'm really just adding to those. With the exception of baby buddies, didn't even know about then till last year and love that they all had pets! It's hard to focus on all at once though and I find my self going from one yo the other a lot. And I also am a fan of those books too!

Sounds like we would have been good friends if we had lived closer to one another! My friends and I spent hours playing with all those toys you mentioned! I had a Puppy Surprise, too, and loved those little babies she came with.

The main things I am adding to are: Puppy in my pocket and My Beautiful Horses
Once I have these, I'll move on to complete the following collections: Kitty in my Pocket and Pony in my Pocket
I collect Breyers as well - Classic and Traditional
When I have money, I'll be looking to buy the Littlest Pet Shop Dalmation standing on 2 legs and wags its tail when you rub its tummy, and the Grey Cat standing that moves its head left to right when you use the wool. (I remember getting these two for easter one year so they are both dear to me).

Oh I had kitty surprise! I loved her so much! I had the hot pink one. I remember being so excited that Christmas. Besides the toys already mentioned, I had so many Polly Pockets. My moms boyfriend made a toy box just for those. (Not that I ever used it lol) I also had a thing for dinosaurs. So I had a lot of Jurassic Park Dino's my fav was the baby TRex. When I look at the toys available now. I feel bummed for the kids. What are they gonna talk about or collect? Maybe after a certain age, toy companies don't try. Companies must know they cannot compete with T.V. My friends daughter is five, she has so many toys. She can't play in silence, that T.V is always on.

I'm trying collect all the Topps toys (kitties, puppies, baby wild animals and I have a complete collection of the Precious Piggies & Pals). The puppies are the hardest to find/complete. I'll never have the stickers or pamphlets for those guys.
I also collect a few select Natoons collections for Kinder Surprise XD I'm very specific about them. I only collect the ones that are fuzzy.
I don't collect the newer, flocked IMPs but I buy the ones I like/think are cute XD I have this thing for fuzzy figures apparently.

Oh, thanks I do have 48 loose packs coming in the mail though, so I might not need to buy more. Who knows though- my luck might have run out after the piggies.
