Author Topic: Tell me.....which G1 era Toys do you also collect? (Read 3615 times)

I remember having some of the "G1" Care Bears as a child. My mom says they're stored in her basement, though I have a feeling that they've seen better days.

I do have a small handful of G1 Transformers, and I'm starting to collect a few of the Fairy Tails birds as well (never had them as a child).

EDIT: Just remembered. I also had a handful of the G1 Littlest Pet Shop pets and Polly Pocket sets.

I cannot say that I collect them, but I always look for Hornby "Flower Fairies". I just love those winged dolls. I have the original "Book of the flower fairies" (from my grandmother) and have always liked the pictures and the little poems.

I only have three of them, but I hope to find more.

My main collection is actually dolls rather than ponies so I have some dolls from that era in my collection. Mostly barbie but I also have some sindy stuff from the 80s.

I also collect some care bears, moondreamers and Jem. I'm hoping to get some glo friends things as well.

I adore Fairy Tail birds and Mattel Pretty Kitties, I hope to start collecting them soon in addition to ponies.

I collect lots of G1 Era and onwards "girls toys" if I find them. There is just something about toys from the 80s and after that appeals to me however I can't seem to muster the same enthusiasm for most 70s and earlier toys. My favorites animal figures (both brushable and nonbrushable) and small dolls like SSC.

Owh I forgot to at that I also really love the My Child dolls from Mattel, they are called Mijn Kleintje here in Holland, translated My Little One!!!!
I sadly sold my childhood one because money was tight, but I bought one back from a collector of these dolls!
And I have plans te re-collect my Barbie dolls I had from childhood, because mine are ruined by my 2 nieces who asked *Can we play with your Barbie dolls* And because I was always very careful with my toys my parents bought me the real barbies from Mattel and my nieces who played very rough with their toys got mostly fake Barbie dolls where you can easily pop the head off to put the clothes on....but this is not the case with Mattel dolls. Or you must do it very carefully!!! So they broke 4 necks....and ruined my only Ken doll in like a half hour time! And didn't say a thing!!! No they put them on the bottom of the bin I kept them and put everything else on top...and because I didn't really played with them anymore because I was like 14/15 I discovered it a couple off months later!!! I was SOOOO angry!!!!!

*Spoiled little brats!*

Sorry to hear about your Barbies, Lady.Arachnia.

80's toys carry so much nostalgia for me! Right now like many of you I am collecting Fairy Tails birds. I need just one more of the UK variants! (Extras of normal releases for sale on my post in the sales forum.)

I'd like to see pics of everyone's collections!

My main collections are 80s Cabbage Patch Kids, vintage Pound Puppies (Hornby, but have ones from other countries too), and recollected childhood Care Bears and Strawberry Shortcake, and Charmkins. Have collected then downsized G1 MLP, and still have my childhood ones and merchandise.
Have also collected more vintage SSC Orange Blossom merchandise. And I collect vintage (mainly 80s, some 70s) Snoopy stationary and anything I can find in charity shops. Still have my Sylvanians but was a teen when they came out.

I would love to collect soft toy Care Bears, have resold or traded lots, but wanted to keep them, and always wanted a Puffalump. The cat or cow probably. Have resold lots of 80s toys on Ebay, as I can't collect everything, but still hung onto them for a while just as I never had them as a child. So have sold Wuzzles, Care Bears, and lots of others, got 3 Popples that I will have to put on Ebay at some stage, but I haven't room or money to keep anything.

Oh my goodness so much *wonderful* in this thread!!! I only collect ponies, simply for a space thing I have to just stick to one thing. But.... Oh if I had space!!! I would totally collect Sylvanian Families, I never had them as a kid, but my friend had loads, a big mansion and loads of other stuff. I always really wanted the gypsy caravan set *swoon* I'd probably also collect Polly Pockets, again never had them as a kid, but this same friend did. And Keypers too, I've got the Mummy and Baby Snail and their little friend, but I'd love to have the others, my friend at school had the swan, wow she was beautiful!! So really, it's probably good I don't have space, I'd need to be a millionaire to buy all the things I wish I could buy!!!
