Polly Pocket

After Mattel purchased the Polly Pocket brand in 1998, the original, smaller version of the toys have increased in value.

A sealed set or a single Crystal Ball could get you as much as €375 on eBay.

Not bad a toy that cost around a ten-er back in the day!

Finally found my beloved Polly Pockets. My mum and dad have been clearing out their garage and I had so much stuff. Old ringbinders filled with A-level and GCSE notes, padlocked diaries, a pot ocarina I used to play, loves letters from old boyfriends and notes passed to friends during classes. I have loved looking through it all, the photos and books. So many boxes filled with memories. I had worried I had lost my Polly Pockets but they were in the last box I sorted. So happy to have found them. I love them. Miniature worlds. Tiny people in little scenes. I have so many of them. They still bring me as much joy as they did when I was a child. Who else was Polly Pocket obsessed? . . . #sundayfunday #sunday #cleaningup #mariekondo #pollypocket #miniature #love #memories #childhoodmemories #garage #polly #tiny #dolls #ocarina #loveletters #gcse #oldboyfriend

Been away for a bit but I did start new generations on these guys! Looks like I'm headed down the bad care route for both but that's okay. I meant to marry the previous generations via connection but I forgot and used the matchmaker instead, so the dark one is a day ahead of the other one. #tamagotchi #tamatag #tamagotchiconnection #v2 #tamagotchiv2 #tamagotchilog #tama #virtualpet #vpet #electronicpet #tmgc #tmgccollection #tmgccollector #tamagotchicollector

Pokémon cards

We all knew that one smug kid who managed to bag themselves a Charizard card.

And if they were lucky then, they're REALLY lucky now. A mint -condition Charizard Holo card, from the first edition of Pokémon released in 1999, can fetch more around €3100.
