Does anyone still collect Beanie Babies or Hummels or whatever?

There were several crazes that got a lot of people involved. I'm wondering if anyone kept going, after the craze stopped?

Barbies are still pretty hot, I guess.

Got a thing for Barbies, huh?






Sorry, can't help you on the collecting stuff, never had the interest (or money) to get into that.

Beanie Babies.... ugh I had over 400 at one time. I can't even sell them now for $1 each at my yearly garage sales. I still have about 50 left that I can't get rid of. How about Muffy Van der Bears? Again I had over 300 plus another 50 packaged outfits. at $45 a pop I had a ton of money invested. I can't give these away. Maybe someday I'll have grandkids... I'll probably have to have my own the way things are going. hahahahaha

Cabbage Patch kids? Do they still make them?

My Grandma has around 600 of them, and is always getting more

Aah! She has a whole ROOM full

I used to collect stuff til I went into an antique store and saw other peoples collectables for sale and I thought my money could give me more pleasure on this side of heaven. I figured what's the point my kids won't value it.

So I guess the answer is No.

Yes they do! I never collected anything past owning about 5 beanie babies, that are now in a bin of toys for the kids, but I have a couple cabbage patch dolls from my childhood. They do make them, not quite like they were years ago. Toys R Us sells them. I had a couple Tomagachis... I liked those

Lol

Remember Pet Rocks, LOL!!! What were we thinking

I still have a beanie baby that I treasure! It's the rooster! I'd looked for him everywhere and could never find him! I received him as a gift when I had knee surgery...he is now displayed on my "chicken shrine" in the living room.
