Hi!
I was a long time collector of the original Littlest Pet Shop as a girl, and still have them. I've been looking sidewise at the new LPS for a long time but I already collected Batman toys and American Girl dolls, among other things, and so was worried about starting another "toy to store" collection.
Then my tax rebate came, the new wave of LPS came out, and I no longer could resist. I ran around for a weekend and built up quite the collection (for me, at least! I'm sure it's only a blip for most!). My mom came and visited me a couple weeks later and ... turns out she loves them too, and was only waiting for me to express interest. So another weekend of hunting and now she has her own collection. I am trying to collect "wild" animals (but really, I just buy what i like) while she is focusing on ocean creatures and bugs.
Anyways, I love collecting, but my favorite things to do are building displays/backdrops and making photo-stories with my toys (I even have my own community devoted to that) so that's probably what I'll be doing most.
So, uh, hello!

Hello and welcome!! I collected American Girl dolls when I was younger... have so much stuff! We also would go to the Annual Sale in Wisconsin when I was younger, too... back before it was a huge, well-known event! I've been thinking about going through my collection and selling some of it off. I also, would love to see your "Stories" !! They sound amazing!

Welcome!!! That's so cool that your mom and you can collect together. I'm also looking forward to hearing more about your toy stories.
I am another collector from Illinois that loves the lambs the most.
