Collecting Pokémon

    Am I the only person in Ireland that collects Pokémon merch? Every time I mention it to people they look at me like I've two heads and then seem to mentally equvocate me to a crazy cat lady - house floor to ceiling with Pokémon s|-|it. All I have are cards, small figures and a handful of teddies! And some of them are actually really valuable now. People collect all sorts of random stuff, I don't see how collecting something I grew up on should be frowned upon.
    So, does anyone else have a collection of little critters?

    I collect lots of random Pokémon stuffs, I have quite a few plushies, loads of Gashapon figures, 3x151 T-shirts (one is for sale when we get it on eBay), TCG cards in several folders, posters, both copies of the Official Pokemon Magazine, various Manga, some Trading Figure Game figures, Charizard Hoodie and matching cap from the Pokémon Center, and some other random stuffs.

    Nice to meet a fellow collector!
    Some randomness is in my video

    Slightly off topic, but are you going to Nom-Con this weekend? I have some random merch for prizes in the Pokémon tourny

    No I work every weekend so I don't get time for Cons. And I have the same blastoise keychain as you! xD Forbidden Planet, yes? I'm jealous of your raichu stadium figure thingy, also.

    My collection is really just raichu atm. I'll prolly make a proper start on my side collections soon.

    Are you on the collectors LJ?

    That's the problem with working weekends, kiss any real life good bye

    I really like my Blastoise, it's great to show someone and then squirt water at them :)

    You made an error, I fixed it :p

    Yeah, I know. I haven't had a proper social life in the past 2years. Though I have bought a ton of crap x3

    Oooh thank you! Silly me not paying attention to what I'm typing.

    Yeah I joined a couple of months ago and have seen my funds drop immensely. I'm actually waiting for a couple of parcels to arrive at this very moment *twiddles thumbs*

    Once a upon a time, my brother and I used to collect the pokémon figurines we had loads of them but we were told to clear them, I still have a few but not many.

    Most of my parcels have finally arrived. So now my collection doesn't feel so pathetic~

    It's still miniscule in comparison to Buzzthebatgirl's, but I'm really only interested in having lots of raichu. I have lots of other toys from when I was a kid, but they're mostly pokes I don't really like.
    I'm still waiting for some jolteon and houndoom kids to arrive, as well as a raichu pokecenter charm.

    You should make a Raichu Paperpoke to go in your collection :)
