Yay, thank you for joining, Sarah! I think I see why the King Charles Spaniels are your favorite LOL. They're an adorable breed with big personalities and big hearts. My babies live in Ohio with my parents now and my mean landlord (my boyfriend's grandmother) won't let us have a dog so I have to substitute how I can.

:)Welcome mypuppiesandme! I'm a fan of the husky also. I like the grey one with the different colored eyes. Which variation do you like best? Thank you, nice to meet you! I think my favorite variation is the black one, like the one in my avatar. The different colored eyes are so cute, aren't they!

Welcome Sarah! I'm so pleased you decided to join! Ugh I can imagine how awful it must be to be separated from your three adorable babies! My boyfriend and I relocated to NY for our jobs, the hotel wasn't pet friendly. I missed Rogue everyday! I was so happy when the project was over and I got to come home! Hopefully soon you get to be together again!
PS. Horde or Alliance.

Name/Screenname: Lisa/animallover87
What you collect: G1 LPS, Monster High, Ever After High, Lisa Frank, Nancy Drew pc games, Disney Princess holiday barbie, cute owls, butterflies, and I'd love to start collecting some of the new IMP lines, but the ones I'm interested in are only sold overseas. I just don't have the money or space right now unfortunately.
How long you've been collecting: Well, like mostly everyone else here, I had a bunch of LPS sets when I was younger, then they were packed away for years, and then about a year and a half ago I started selling my childhood toys on ebay. After selling a couple of my LPS sets for WAY less than I should have, I decided I wanted to keep the rest of my childhood collection and start actively collecting the sets I like and didn't have as a kid. As for MH, I've been collecting since February. EAH is a brand new sister line to MH and that started in June or July. I always had a ton of Lisa Frank was I was younger (with that also being my name. haha) and I still have some of it left today. A few months ago I picked up some vintage stamps from the 80's at a flea market for next to nothing. I was so excited! I also have picked up a few things of the new stuff as well, but mostly the remakes of the old designs. ND games I've collected for probably about 15 years or so. And as for vintage IMP, my sister and I had a bunch of the puppy in my pocket, but none of the other animals. We were never really big into them either. I think it was more just the excitement of not knowing what you were going to get in the packet. That, and the candy bone was the best part! Lol But after we had opened them, and saw what we got, they were pretty much just thrown in the toy box and forgotten about, I'm sorry to say. I don't collect IMP, I'm mainly here because I'm interested to learn about them and I also sell them.
Favorite figure: The lines I really wish I could collect are forest in my pocket, jungle in my pocket, and some of the ocean in my pocket. I'm also interested in the enchanted valley sets, but I'm not sure if that's an IMP line.
Anything else about yourself: Like others on here, I'm also a gamer nerd. Although I have never played WOW. Not thatthere's anything wrong with it, I've just never played it.

Hi this is Piddy. I have been collect in my pocket items for over 10 years, I wish I had done when I was young, I was fascinated when I got some of these off Ebay, and I got hooked on collecting them, I started with the Puppies, then the Kittys, I then went onto to the Baby Surprise ones, and then decided to do all the others too, Pony, Teddy, Bunny etc. I now have a massive collection and also collect the fact cards from all over the world, there up over 20 variations of cards in different languages and styles. I'm from United Kingdom and did a lot of research trying to find out about these critters. I think I now have one of each of all the In my Pocket animlas from all series, but still look out for those elusive ones that did not seem to be issued. I am happy to try and answer any questions and share photos from my collection on here. I will add my Wants list soon, this is mostly card variations plus a few other things. Enjoy!

Welcome Piddy! You must have a beautiful collection! I can't be the only one who is dying to see pictures! I see you have hildy! A few member here, have been searching for her! I was beginning to think she was a old wives tale! I'm curious do you happen to know the pups name that looks like cambridge and treker? The one with the purple food bowl? I hope you share a picture of your color variations! I'm a sucker for them! -Tasha.

Yeah, welcome!! I'm so glad you joined, i was hoping you would since you know much more than me! Please feel free to correct anything untrue you may have seen me type!
I think Tasha means Cambridge/Tess and Tarker, the black retriever. I think Tarker came from a cereal box, but where does the orange retriever come from?
