Beanie babies

[IRescue452]

I have most of the dogs. I also have all of the "rare" ones from the first few years (royal elephant, original moose, razorback, unicorn with fine mane). The thing is, I only spend 50¢-$1 on most of them. I liked the classic positions better, soft with all four legs splayed out. They were just better back then before they tried making them too fancy. Still looking for the airedale, my girlfriend has one. My favorite is Snort the red bull. I have four of the giant bulls, two regulars, and a few minis displayed in the back of my car.

wow, that's a lot. I never really collected them I just had gotten a whole lot over the years. I guess between me and my brother we have around 150 maybe? I still have most of them unless some have gotten lost.. I have most of them in a big box, but I keep my favorite one out in my room on my desk (the collie beanie baby)

Wow, that's quite the collection! I used to be really into BBs. I think I started collecting when I was 10 or 11, I still get them on rare occassions but not often. They are too cute. Think I have about 100 or so...

I collected quite a bit when I was younger.. I still have them in a bag in the attic, actually. I might get rid of them eventually.. I do have some of the OLD ones.. Mostly dogs/cats..

I have a handful of ones...usually i'll buy based on the name. i have "bruno" because of my rb dog, bruno, for example. and i have bought my mom some elephant ones because her nickname growing up was peanut (she was a tiny baby at birth).

that's a great way to display them, will they stay valuable uncovered like that? or are you just collecting them for your own enjoyment, with no thoughts of what they'll be worth in the future?
