Shop find and basement discovery!
« on: April 14, 2013, 05:56:03 PM »
Retro Distortion in Eau Claire, WI has usually provided me with fun discoveries (by the way, they still have a few stray Dream Castle/Pretty Parlor/Show Stable parts and a cute Moondreamers coloring book if you're in the area), and this weekend was no exception!

On walking in, I immediately discovered an old Bedtime Bear, and when I picked it up, a very minty Whirly Twirl was underneath!

To make it even better, I did a quick scan of my parents' basement and found this! (Whirly Twirl got in on the fun) There's also a bag of assorted Barbie and Wish World tidbits, too. So nostalgic!

The LPS discovery gives me a bit of hope that a few more of my childhood toys might have survived the gauntlet of Goodwill runs and garage sales... my mom promised not to throw away or donate any more toys without checking with me first. :)

That is awesome to that you found them all :) I had all of them pet shop things to when I was a kid. I sold them all off a few years back.

Congrats! There's lots of hope in WI, just not in any area within my reach if I get there first.

That's so awesome that you found some of your childhood toys! I wish my parents would have asked me before giving away mine that were stored in their attic. I loved the Kenner Littlest Pet Shop toys when I was a kid. Congrats on your finds!
