puppy: ur figurines are still in very good condition. I also noticed that toys fr our generation are making a comeback. My silly bf is collecting transformer toys now...haiz...i find it a waste of $. But i guess it's his interest...he said when he was a boy, no $$ to buy so he is buying now. ya... toys from our generation coming back liao. my ex bf keeps a lot of star wars figurine. almost got all the full collection. some toys are manufactured again. those old ones are v exp. and the figurines are not in good condition. newly manufactured ones are in better condition. they got diff edition 1 leh. so if u can get those old edition 1, it'll worth a lot. hahaha... exp hobby ah... hahaha... i dunno if clarke quay still have the flea market every sunday. toy collectors usu go there to find their toys. and u can see a lot of old things sold there at rather cheap price. can bargain also. another 2 places to find toys are thru yahoo auction or ebay. sometimes if heng, can find cheap ones or rare ones.

I went clarke quay 2 weeks ago & me & my bf found that they are sooo many toy shops there....so surprised. I wonder how they survive cos sooo many competitors. My bf bought a transformer toy there too. I tik he will go there again after his exam...haiz.

hee..seem like many pple like to collect things...my colleague collect M&M's stuff, my friend's bf collecy Qoo stuffs...hmm...anyone noes friends who collect wierd things? hee...i remeber when i was younger, i love collect cute letter pads & envelopes...those that are sold in a set...some are really very cute...
During primary school me & my friends like to write letters to one another...a bit silly cos we see one another in school. But it's really fun to receive letters from friends. Most of the time we write during school holidays. Then we'll use the nicer writing pad & envelope for our best friends...hahaha

I used to collect those letter pads too, in fact I still do! I still write to some of my friends, coz I find email and all too impersonal. I used to collect stickers! Those shiny, furry, stickers, etc....
Now I'm collecting be@rbrick... I like guys toys, like transformers, spawn, and some of those figurines example Hellboy figurines, etc, but very expensive, so I don't buy.

Last time when i was still in school i oso had this love for furry stickers! I still do keep some of the letter pads. Now never use liao... seldom write letters. I still remember i used it to write to penpals... Anyone still have this love for letter pads? I'm most willing to pass it on! Otherwise it will just lie in my storage or end up my daughter's scribbling papers if she managed to dig out! I used to collect those letter pads too, in fact I still do! I still write to some of my friends, coz I find email and all too impersonal. I used to collect stickers! Those shiny, furry, stickers, etc.... Now I'm collecting be@rbrick...
