This isn't totally off-topic, but it's not about the video games themselves. So I'll put it here. I was just wondering if anyone else had AC or ACWW toys or collectibles? I have a few, but not near as many as I'd like. I just don't find much for sale here in the U.S. I guess there's a lot for sale overseas, because I see quite a bit of stuff on eBay. I've gotten some stuff from there, but it's so expensive. Anyway, I have a few things. I have some teeny-tiny plastic miniatures of characters/animals/furniture pieces. Here are the pictures of the ones I have: And then here's a plush Stitches keychain that makes some pretty cute sounds when you push her belly. I got most of that stuff at Limited Too (a girls' clothing store...way overpriced...I only go in there for toys when necessary.) There's so much cool stuff on eBay that I want...I think I'll be asking for some of it for Christmas. I especially want a Blathers plush. Blathers is my favorite!! Anyone else have anything?

I would love to have that stuff, but my daughter already thinks I'm crazy because I have 2 DSs and 2 ACWW games. I just ordered a third DS and a third game and they're being shipped. I shop online and I'm comfortable with it because I have proper security programs on my PC that protect my information, If you are comfortable with online shopping you might have a look here: www.toysnjoys.com/animalcrossing_toys.htmlHappy Hunting!

I would love the toys and other items based on AC and AC:WW. I also heard that Big Lots stores had some this past month. unfortunately for me that was a month after I moved away from where there were 2 stores near me. lol
I dont have any problem buying things online, I've done it before, but having no money at all puts the brakes on that plan for now. heh heh

Yeah, I'm afraid my eyes are bigger than our bank account sometimes. Especially when it comes to my toys. I also collect Littlest Pet Shop toys, and I spend way too much on them. It's a good thing we don't have kids, so we can buy toys and video games for ourselves.
I'm fine with buying things online too. I do it all the time. I also do it for my mom and dad since they aren't comfortable with it. I even did it for an older woman at work once, because she didn't want to do it.
Thanks for the link! I'll have to add some stuff to my Christmas list. It'll be an all AC Christmas!

:)I look everywhere for ACWW and ACGC thingys, the only ones I have found are the cute miniature ones. They are in coin operated boxes in stores and 1 fast food outlet. I put them on my purses, cell phone, game controllers and zipper pulls! I would really like some stuffed ones! The miniature furniture in the photo is just great. I have never shopped on eBay but do other internet shopping, will look again later.

If anyone would like me to check Limited Too next time I'm in that area, to see if they have any of the ACWW stuff left (they had the plush keychains that make sounds and the miniature characters and furniture), just let me know. I could pick them up for you. I would just ask for actual price plus tax, plus actual shipping charges. I could accept PayPal payment.
Just let me know. I remember that they had a Rosie plush (they are about 5 inches high, by the way.) And it seems like a couple others, but I can't remember which ones.

I also have some ACWW charms. I don't have a picture of mine, specifically. But here's pictures from eBay of them. There were 2 series of them. I have both. And here's the Stitches coinpurse that I got really cheap. (Otherwise I wouldn't have gotten it, because...what am I going to do with it?)

And here's a picture of the "situational" plush. There are also plush where they aren't holding anything. But I love the one of Blathers holding the bug! It's adorable!! That's what I'm getting for Christmas.

:)I will be checking out the toysnjoys store, added it to my shopping folder just now! And the little charms are what I have, not all of them though! I'll have to learn how to put pictures on here. I may come up with something note worthy!

:)I will be checking out the toysnjoys store, added it to my shopping folder just now! And the little charms are what I have, not all of them though! I'll have to learn how to put pictures on here. I may come up with something note worthy! I belong to another forum like this one, and here are instructions posted on that one on how to post pictures. This is how I do it. But you don't have to use Photobucket. Any image-hosting website should work. "The first step: Go here: photobucket.com/And create an account (make sure you click NO THANKS to every stupid marketing thing they offer you). Then, log in. The screen you see once you log in has a space where it says "Image" and then a blank text box and then a button that says "Upload". Click upload, and browse around your computer to find the pictures you want to upload (if there are a bunch, before you click "upload" click the "1" just above "upload" and change it to however many photos you have). After you select each file you want to upload, hit the "submit" button at the bottom. It'll pause for a bit (depending on your connection speed and how many pics you're uploading) and then you'll see all of them at the bottom of the screen. To get them to appear in a post, just copy the BOTTOM line of text underneath the appropriate picture (starts with IMG), and then paste it into your thread. You don't need to hit the image button above, because the tags are already in place from photobucket."

I would love to have all those AC toys, but I have LPS everywhere. I do have an AC poster from the GC version. My friend works at a video game store, so I get posters all the time. I once saw some of the figures at a store up in Denver. I went back to get them and they were gone.

I also got a DS Lite Animal Crossing skin from eBay. I'll have to take a picture of it.
I went back to Limited Too the other day. They don't have any of the miniatures anymore. Just the pluch keychains that talk. They had Bluebear, and ...oh, darnit, I can't think now. I think it was a pink squirrel. And one of the cats. Oh, I have a terrible memory...

I really wish I had some ACWW figures and especially plushes. Do you think that they sell them in Australia? I have Beanie Kids everywhere (teddy bears) and MLPS everywhere. I am a kid at heart. I really am.
