I have been thinking about a horse that I used to LOVE:
http://www.darah.com/collection/jewelriders/toyguide.asp (http://www.darah.com/collection/jewelriders/toyguide.asp)
Moondance from Princess Guinevere and the Jewel Riders! I think I got it at a garage sale, I never had any of the accessories. I remember getting some of the dolls new, and I definitely took this horse to show-and-tell in preschool. Unfortunately, it went missing somehow and I would really like to replace it.... but it seems to sell for ~$200 on ebay :cry:
I had the deluxe princess Guinevere and deluxe Tamara as well- I still have the cat! Wish I had kept those as they seem to sell for quite a lot these days as well :biggrin:
You should be able to get Moondance for much less than that - I've had three or so of her go through my hands that I sold for under $25 as I recall although with no accessories and in varying conditions.
My non-MLP toy grail is Get Along Gang Dress-Up Kid Flora Fox.

That ENORMOUS Lion King plush that is either Simba or Mufasa, I don't really care which, the point is it's like as tall as I am.

Oh man, I remember that thing! It took up like half the plushie display at the Disney Store right?

Spirit Stallion of the Cimmaron Bryers from when the movie was first released. By the time I saw the movie the Bryers were gone and they're so expensive now. :sad: The one I want most of all is the set with Spirit, Rain and their colt.
The Little Mermaid 2: Melody doll. I wish I had picked her up when I had the chance.

I've never seen these before. They look like a mash up of She-ra and Jem. Was it a line only in Europe?

Congrats on finding the locket! I know what you mean- I have Rain in the traditional size but I just wasn't interested/didn't have enough pocket money for Spirit as well :c my friend had that a couple versions of that set... I looooved that movie and wish I had tried to get more merch when it first came out.

No, I got them in the US! I still remember the shop they were in and everything. Before I wrote down the exact name I kept forgetting and googling things like "she-ra knockoff with gems" :lol:
This Beanie Boo owl:

She's the only one ever made that I don't have, though she was never sold in the UK as she was exclusive to Justice stores, which we don't have over here. The company did two other Justice Exclusive owls but I managed to get them through Amazon. This one was never listed though.

It is so disappointing to find that things we took completely for granted as kids are now nowhere to be found, or cost the earth. I remember going to the library with my mom and my favourite books to borrow from there where the What-a-Mess books by Frank Muir. So, when I had kids of my own I decided that I would like to share these books with them. Only to find that they seem to have disappeared out of SA without a trace. It is hard to even find someone who has ever heard of them. In 9 years of searching second hand stores and online, I have found..... two

I am particularly looking for those actually printed in SA

I have found and indeed purchased others online from the UK, but it is the SA books that I really want.
As well as trying to find ursa minor.
That radio is So CUTE Squirmy! Reminds me of Tippy
@vira those are so cute im in love!!!!!
i think i've finally decided on my grails >_>
1997 anastasia dolls, especially the doll of the Tsar and the "always forever" pack, which can run quite a price tag and is hardly ever on ebay ;_;
here's a picture, though not mine

and the milo/kida dolls from atlantis. milo isn't that expensive on his own, but kida is a real bank breaker.

Those two sets do occasionally pop up for auction and sell at much smaller price tags though ;) You just really have to watch closely. I've seen auctions for all those sets end in the $20 - $40 range on multiple occasions. Normally when I don't have spare cash to bid myself lol.

isn't that the way it goes? the best auctions always pop up right when you just blew your boll budget on something else ; )
eeeee he's lovely, Lollipop!! I love seeing photos of "new" toys next to well-loved ones :)

:biggrin: Hehe thank you.
Was so happy when I saw him ^.^ couldn't believe what mine actually used to look like, my original ones nose is basically as flat as a pancake to his face, the newer one actually has quite a pointy nose (more like an actual bear) I knew mine was supposed to stick out but didn't realise it was by that much :lol:

That's a lovely story, Lollipop! :lovey:
Oh man! I have so many, but my tops are as follows:
Balto and Jenna laying down plushes (very expensive on ebay)
Princess Sally Acorn merchandise (from the Sonic The Hedgehog Saturday morning cartoon) I'd especially love to find the beanie plush, hand puppet, mug and Avon bottle head of her. Merchandise of her was sold at a short lived theme park in Sydney, Australia making it impossible to find as well as pricey!
Care bears cousins of the horse, monkey, cat, and dog.
Wuzzles babies plushes (still new to me. I think sold mostly in UK)
Glow worms Dipper Duck and Country mouse for the glow worms
Gina, Feelin' Fancy Chloe and Feelin' Fancy Joelle from Fashion Star Fillies line.
Carla from the Mattel Little Pretty Kitties line.
Huge Sonic the Hedgehog plush sold over 20 years ago. Only saw him once on ebay back in 2002.
Huge Meeko the raccoon plush from Disney's Pocahontas. I think he was a store prize you had to win.
Those are my main wants. It seems harder to find stuff on ebay nowadays since they seem to cater more to retail giants.
Oh man.Yes, I almost never see that set up for sale! I guess that's because it's the second release. I also am after some LPS, like the brown and white Take Care pup and the Easter bunnies.

Hoooooly smokes I never knew that Wrinkles plush existed! It looks like a costume someone could fit into! XD
I have a TON of 80's toy wants, but especially:
- - Castle Keeps Gargoyles - I have three, might be getting two more soon, and otherwise will only need the yellow one and the pink one with purple horns. I'd LOVE to find any in really super poor condition to customize (like really REALLY poor since they're SO rare) and them all mint on card!
- Yum Yums - I'm only missing 4 of the party ones... Merry Marshmallow Rabbit, Candy Apple Kitty, Gigglin Gumball Mouse, Teddy Cakes Bear. I especially adore Merry Marshmallow!
- Hooks plush - Raccoon & Elephant are all I need!
- Pet Surprise from the 90's - The light lavender sitting kitty, light lavender laying kitty, light lavender bear and light lavender sitting pony!
- Any Happy Ness plushes, they're so sweet!
I also super want to complete my collection of My Magic Kissing Dragons :)
You can find images of all these things on ghostofthedoll.co.uk!
Bigger list is in the link in my sig. :D
