I try not to say that I "collect" plush because I "collect" pins and well, if you could see my house, you'd understand. I'm working on my 7th bulletin board worth of keepers. But I do have several plush that I like. One of our kittens (unfortunately lost to feline leukemia last year) was a holy terror and loved to chew on her humans and her feline brother and sister. We bought a plush stitch hoping to be able to train her to bite stitch and leave Merlin (aka "chew toy") alone. It didn't work exactly as planned, but she did become quite fond of stitch and then she lost him! She's been gone almost a year and we STILL have not recovered the missing Stitch. We have since replaced him with several other versions--including my favorite pictured below:

(Does anyone know why the picture is right side up in my dropbox folder but rotated 90 degrees here?)

No, but it's this better? biggrin

Did you take the picture with an iPhone? Sometimes mine show up screwy when I take them with my phone. Sometimes I have to re-save them and rotate them and save them again for them to show up right.

Thanks, mrhub! How did you do that? awesome

I take all my photos with my iphone anymore. The only time I lug the real camera (i.e. the little pink sony point and shoot) around is at Disney. Hmmm...that DOES explain it because all of the other photos I have uploaded to this site are vacation photos.

I HAVE THE POWER! HA HA HA HA, cough cough"...............

Yeah, if you don't hold the phone the right way when you take a picture or video, if will post goofy just like the iPad. When you take the picture, you need to hold it with the volume buttons on the lower left side.

I have a large number of assorted sizes of Mickey Mice (Mouses?) and since my retirement and move, I have no place to put them. My wife tells me to get rid of them, but not easy to do that.

I think I'm up to 30 Dumbos.

Now in my defense I've only been an "adult" for a little over six months...

Okay, so I bought two more with grad money two months ago. But I never had a Mrs. Jumbo! Innocent

I'm a toy collector. Not so much a WDW plush collector, per se . . . . but I have quite a few of them. The only WDW plushes I have on display, however, are a stuffed Figaro the kitten (he's soooo cute!) I've had since 1989, from my family's first trip to Disney World, a Kermit the Frog I got on my 2006 trip, and a plush Ariel/Aurora doll (you flip Ariel over, she becomes Aurora) I got in Disneyland in 2012. There's a plushie I want, though, but I don't think they make it. I have a baby Pluto and a Marie, both of which are wrapped in blankets (too cute for words!), and I've noticed they've made plushies of Mickey, Minnie, and Goofy in this form (as well as several other Disney characters), and I want one like that of Donald Duck!
