HI guys!!! I am desperatly looking for an adult grey rumpleskins pound puppy. I will pay very well or trade ponies for a value of 75$. I am also looking for a newborn grey and creme colored rumpleskins pound puppy. I am also looking for mugs, tooth brush holder, working talking Cooler (like a teddy ruxpin) the very large vintage pound puppies. These are around 30 inches long. I will take any color of these. I am also looking for any cookie jars, and christmas themed pound puppies. I am not activley looking for other plush puppies or purries, but if you have any for sale or trade I will consider them too.
Here is a older auction on ebay of a rumpleskins adult puppy, and a newborn. Again, I only need grey colored ones. I dont care what condition they are in, but obviously the better the conditon the higher I will pay or trade.
I know this is wierd but I am alos looking for any used toothbrush's. I make braclets out of them.
Please pm me of you have anything for sale. Even if its not listed as a wnat I will still consider things you may have. Thank you so much!!!

I have that little brown one in the picture!
No others though, I'm a Pound Purrie girl here!
-
Let me see what I have doubles of. I have accumulated quite a few in the last few years. :-)
-
That brown newborn seems to be so easy to find! I think everyone has that guy, whether they collect pound puppies or not. LOL
Thank you for taking a look for me.
I also got a newborn clothing outfit that I will trade. Its a pair of red shorts and a white shirt. Let me knwo if anyone needs pictures of it. I may have doubles of some things too, so if someone needs somthingparticular just let em know, I migt have it!
Thanks again guys!!
-
I tried to take a look at the auctions you showed, but they have both ended. Do you have better pics? There have been a LOT of pound puppies at the flea markets as of late.
-
I don't have the ones you are looking for, but I do have two of the pull-along leash puppies with wheels - a non matching adult and baby.
good luck finding your rumpleskins! I love that word!
-
Okies, checked. The only doubles I have are a Hardee's one, a couple of newborns and a standard sized dark brown one with long ears. Sorry. :-/
-
Can someone quickly school me in pound puppies and pound purries? I almost always leave them behind and garage sales and thrift stores. Is there some I should be watching out for? I find quite a few of them. :P
-
I've got a set of valentine pups/ Easter bunnys .
I know I have a play set but it's vanished.

HI guys! Thank you so mcuh for looking for me!! Basicly from what little information I have is pound puppies were a line of toys, later a tv cartoon show came out from the toy line. They were originally introduced to the market in the early 1980's. If your looking at a pound puppy or pound purry there will be a red embroidered heart with two capial p's in it. This shows you have a real Puppy or purry. There are a lot of knock off ones out there, much like there is with mlp's.
There are some super common puppies and purries out there. Hardees came out with a few newborn puppies and purries as toys in their kid meals. You can find these for a dime a dozen. There was a white purry, a orange tabby purry (both wearing red satin sewn on colars). There was also a brown newborn "rumpleskins" puppy too.
There are also some harder to find puppies and kitties too. Rumpleskins is a type of puppy that can be hard to find. The gret colored one is very hard to find and usually goes for at least 50$. I had one as a kid and lost it, my husband spent 75$ to replace him and my dogs destroyed it, so that is why I am looking for another.
There are puppies that look like poodles, they came in adults and newborns. I have seen them only in greay and in white. There are ones that are all shaggy and furry. Both of these sets can be a tiny bit harder to find.
Puppies and purries come in different sizes. The vinatge ones came in newborns, adults, and then giant sized. These are around 35 inches long, and very hard to find.
They re-relased the pound puppy line around 2000. With this line they came out with tiny tiny puppies, purries and many other animals. They had different holidays, and marriage themed sets. They also had newborn, adults, and the giant sized puppies and purries. This new release are pretty easy to find too.They had puppies ans purres with electronic boxes in there stomachs to make them purr or bark. They also had these in the vinatge line.
Like any other toy line, there are mugs, clothing, bedding, cereamics, posters, books, stickers and many other items that are pound puppy themed. If you do a search on ebay you can find all different itmes from the toy line.
If your out looking for ponies and come across pp's for sale, it might be worth it to buy them. There are very few that are wortha lot of money. The very original ones that are signed and handmade are worth a ton of money, and rumpleskins are too. But, like anything else they are only woorth what you can sell them for. Newborns are usually easy to find, I will not pay mor than .50 cents for them, unless they are rumpleskins, and only in grey and creme colored. The brown newborn is easy to find. Rumpleskins were available in the vinatge line, as well as the re-released line as well.
I will try to take some pictures for you guys tomorrow. In my opinion I think I have a large collection. I have a few harder to find pp's. I would love to see other people's collections too!! I hope I have meade sense to everyone. If anyone has any questions, I will try to answear them.
-
Ooh! Thanks for all of the information!
I will sometimes pass a PP up, but I will sometimes buy them too. I usually buy Purries if I find them though. For the longest time, I had was confusing newborns with the Hardee's pups, until I looked at my stash last night and realized that the Hardee's one were smaller and had sewn collars. I can still remember getting some of the Hardee's ones when they were being sold at the restaurant, and having to get a raincheck for newborn pound puppies at Target 'cause they were on sale and had sold out!
Fo anyone looking, there's lots of really good information over at Ghost of the Doll. They are my go-to site when I am looking to figure out what a vintage toy is. I LOVE it!

Off to get a picture of my collection. :-)

-
I can so relate. I just found my grey rumpleskins adult puppy! I had her as a kid too! I have been looking for her for years on ebay with no luck. I would label her as extremely hard to find.
-
Oh Ember I am soooo jealous!!! Do you need an extra kidney, or a left arm? LOL.. Im just kidding. I have no chance to find mine as I lost him on a trip to Spain 11 years ago. I am soo happy you have found yours! They do come up every so often on ebay, but they go for a lot!! Thank you again everyone for helping me out!!! I willtry to get a few pictures today...
Loreli - I would love to see what you have!!! I think I might need an upgrade to my rust colored rumpleskin, but I am not sure honestly. I need to go look. But yes!!! I am very definatly interested!!! Thank you so much for looking for me!

Here are a few photos for u. I guess finding one MIB (probably my grail) is out of the question huh.. I have a cream adult rumple skins MIB like the auction link you posted
but for some reason the grey is impossible to find. Do you think its because they made less of them? there definitely seems to be an abundance of black and rust colored rumple skins.
-
OMG OMG OMG!!!!! I just squeeked out loud!!!! I always made mine Cooler, but that pink dress is to die for!!! I think i am going to have to start getting all mine clothes!!! Thank you so much for the pictures!! There was justa mib creme colroed one on ebay not to long ago. it went for 23.00$, i have never ever seen the grey mib. I have seen the rust and the black a few times, but I think the creme is the easiest to find. I dont know why the grey is htf honestly. All I can think of is that there wasnt too many made. It doesnt really make sense to me, but that is the only plausable reason I can come up with. Thank you so much for the pictures!!!! Would you mind if I saved them to my computer? I want them only for the cuteness, and for referance of the pink dress. Please let me knwo if thats is ok with you.
For everyone else, that grey one is the one I am looking for. Mnay thanks goes to Ember for the lovely pictures she posted. Many now people can see exactly what it looks like so they can either keep and eye out for me, or maybe someone has it. I am soo slow posting pictures, but I definatly will later today at some point. Thank you so much again!!!!
-
Sure.. Heres another of the pink dress for you.
visitors can't see pics , please register or login
Do you have any pictures of the grey one you use to have before your dogs destroyed her?
I wish there were more of the grey rumpleskins too. She is the only pound puppy I had so
I am sad when I see all those other MIB pound puppies but never the grey even loose. I am sure
you are as well. I will let you know if I ever find another also. I am sure your anxious to have her back
I guess Ill just keep on looking for a MIB one.
-
Ember- Thank you so much for the picture.. and I have pm'ed you. Our dreams have come true!!!!

Hi Sarah,
I sent you a message back. I have the hornby grey rumpleskins pound puppy, which is different form the tonka version. If your interested in him I would consider selling him to you.
He is in great shape.
-
wait what??? I noticed that there is a different company from Tonka and Hornby... is it just a different company??? Now I feel dumb... :-( They look almost the same to me??? Also, since I have been looking around.. there are a lot of different types of boxes too. Do you know anything about that???
I got my pictures uploading to photobucket... I will post them all when I am done.
Please excuse the pictures, I just took them really quick. Some of them have stains, or need washing.
I tried to group similar ones together.

These are adult "furries". They are made to look like poodles. There are newborn abbies like these. I have only seen them in white, and the grey color.

These are my pride and joy, the rumpleskins. I am missing the grey one. Apparently mine is with my grandmother. She is trying to give him new eyes, and nose. I am missing the vintage newborns in creme and grey. The ones pictures are from the newest line. The two bronw ones are from Hardees. They have red attached colars.

These two bark and make other dog noises. They have zippers under their stomach. The creme one on the right was very hard for me to find. I dont see this one for sale on ebay very often.
This is a pound purrie with long wirey hair.

Grey newborns that look very much alike, the one on the left is a bit bigger and has more stuffing. The one all the way to the left is not a real pound puppy. It has no red embroided PP heart.

OOH! I have one of the barkers.. I can't remember which color though. Can't get mine to work, either.. :-/
-
Is it a vintage one? I know somtimes batteries can carrode in the voice boxes. I wish I had one that didnt work to try to pull it apart and see what is inside of it and to try to fix it. The black and white one of mine is missing the voice box. He is one of mine from childhood, so who knows what hapened to it. I would like to get a few more of them, but usually what I have found with ebay is that people just want way to much for them. I value a good condition working one around 5$. Not 40$ and up. Just because somthing is "vintage" doesnt mean its super rare and valuable. I have alos found on ebay, that people selling pound puppies gouge you on shipping. It does not cost as much to ship somthing as most of these selers want. oh well. I will just have to keep looking!
-
Yup! It's vintage! I didn't see any evidence of corrosion. I kinda took it apart a little.. but what I saw inside made me to afraid to tinker further so I put it back together..
Found a youtube video of a guy taking one apart...

Heh. I have a few vintage pound puppies. Just the more common ones, I'll see if I can track them down and get some pictures. Do you have any of the mother and babies sets? They were like Puppy Surprise, a mother with a set of babies in her tummy. I still have my childhood one (who isn't for sale, but I could probably find some pics if you like) she came with three puppies, one had embroidered 'closed' eyes.
Oh! And, I have a cookie jar if you would be interested. The expensive part is the shipping, the jar itself I would sell for like five bucks. It is shaped like a big strawberry, looks like a strawberry shortcake thing, but it isn't a licensed product.
-
Thunderwing - I do not have any mommy and baby sets. Are they vintage ones? I have never seen them before. I do have an actual puppy surprise though. I would love to see pictures!!! I would also like to see what puppies you have for sale,a s well as the cookie jar. I dont think I have seen the one you are talking about. I would love to have one with cooler on it! If you have a chance to take pictures I would definatly love to see them!!! Thank you so much for your reply!
Sarah

Sure thing! If you don't hear from me by, say, next wednesday feel free to send me a PM and remind me. I have to be away this weekend, and I may forget. (It is thanksgiving here this weekend, and I am helping host, yay!)
-

I just picked up a full set of the chritmas puppies, but still looking for tons of other things!!
-

http://www.emerys-emporium.com/plush.shtml
I have more to add but it probably won't be for a couple weeks as I am working on ponies at the moment but if you're on Facebook and you want to "like" my page I always upload pics of new items as I add them to my site!

HI! Thank you for linking me to your website. Is the large pound kitty white? (like the one in my pics) or is she cream colored? Also, how much would shipping be for the cheapest way to 12306? Thank you so much!!!
I will keep looking at your website, I deactivated my facebook page so I dont see anything there anymore.
Sarah

It works (moves makes sound etc) and it's in great shape.
If your interested please let me know and I'll get some pictures together.
-

Sarah
