Aside from collecting comic books, specifically Jughead's Double Digest comics, my other collection is Care Bears stuffed toys. I started collecting them after I graduated from college.
I have a huge collection of these but I didn't buy them. I got them from claw machines at the arcade. I used to get around 5 to 10 everytime I visit the arcade.
Recently, I took the other Care Bears out of the cabinet and placed them inside clear plastic bags. How I wish i did that when they were still new. Some are already dusty and the others are still kept under my bed and inside the other cabinet.
What you can see on the photo is about half of my collection. If I put them all on my bed, I will lay on a bed of bears.
Do you know that each one of them has their own name? And do you know that these characters live in myLot? Hihi Just Kidding! It's called Care a Lot.
Do you find them adorable?

I used to have a couple of these when I was growing up and when my son was born he got the blue care bear. So how many do you think you have in your collection total?

@brokenbee Is it sleepy bear, its the one with the moon on the belly? How did you manage to be so lucky to get all of these out of a crane machine? I was never any good at those

@Castlerock34 Not sleepy bear. It's grumpy bear, the one with a blue raincloud and raindrops on his tummy. He is the only bear who looks sad/grumpy.

@brokenbee But it's worth your effort & expense.
I know because a daughter of mine got one too, after several tries. She was so joyous that got us all laughing!

@KnehKnah Yup, I was also too happy when I had won those stuffed toys. Hmmmm It isn't too easy to grab one from the claw machines here in the Philippines. I had watched videos from US and they seem to catch a toy every try or two.

Actually, I had no plans of collecting them but when I started to grab a few from the claw machines, that's the time I wanted some more.
