So I was the 14/15th person in line for a restock of the 30th at Target. But I had to leave the line after waiting in it for an hour and a half because I had to go to work in 15 minutes and the lady stocking up was taking her sweet time (can’t really complain about her doing her job, she is probably as annoyed as the rest of us with how this hobby has been recently) so I’m a little sad about it.
I will say, from what I could hear from being nosey, sone of the people were collectors and a couple of people in front if me had kids with them so that was cool (i hope the kids got product). But I also heard a bunch of people saying they didn’t know what the line was for and when told what it was for they just stayed there so…

Got a 30th booster bundle the other day from Game Stop.
Been opening a pack a day to “savor it” (since I haven’t found any more 😂) and today on my third day, I got the Articuno IR.
It’s such a pretty card.
Also, haven’t had any repeating Pikachus, so that’s a plus.
I still got 3 more pack, so send good vibes my way guys, really want to pull the Magikarp (it’s my chase for this set).

Still undecided if I should wear the hat or not.
I’m leaning towards not, but might still take it with me just in case.

As the title states, my mom just surprised me (38m) with the Jazwares Sleeping Jolteon when I came home from work tonight.

I wasn’t planning on collecting these, but now I gotta.
Love my mom for this

Hello everybody. It’s me again.
Asking for help on another legit check.
I bought these two a couple of months ago when I started looking into Poke Dolls and Poncho Pikachu.
From the little info I learned back then about how the real plushies are made I thought both of them were real.
But now that I’ve learned a little more I am starting to have my doubts.
If I’m being honest I still think the Lillie’s Clefairy is real, but I am not entirely sure. The one I am pretty sure that is a bootleg is the Ho-Oh Ponchochu, because of how the legs are positioned, because every other detail seems pretty legit to me.
If anyone has these plushies and can help me out legit checking them I’d appreciate it.
I still plan on keeping both because they are cute, and the Ho-Oh despite me thinking it might be a bootleg it’s really well done.
Again, appreciate any help, and thank you.

Got these guys at Target today. As soon as I saw the Raichu I had to get it, it’s so soft. Also got the Espeon to add it to my Jazware Eeveelution collection.
Also, with the addition of this Torchic, I just have to find myself a Jazwares Treecko and I would complete the Hoenn trio (already have a Mudkip).

Also saw a 24” Jazwares Growlithe and the new Pikachu Puppetronic… someone please convince me of not going back tomorrow to pick those up, I’m beginning to think I might have a problem 😂😅(just being a little facetious here)

Hello my fellow collectors.
I am once again asking for your expertise on these plushes I found through fb marketplace.
I’m pretty sure the Snorlax is real from what I can see. The one that’s tripping me up the most if the Mega Tokyo Ponchochu. The space between Pokémon and the forward slash, and the mega stone being flat instead of being rounded are making me think that it might be a bootleg.
But I don’t know if the Mega Tokyo Ponchochu is different than the regular one.
If anyone can let me know, or has any opinion on these I’d appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Went to Target to find some Pitch Black packs and ended up coming home with these cuties (Squishmallow Oshawott and Jazwares Mudkip). And when I got home I got welcomed by these two other cuties (Poké Doll Charmander and Ho-Oh).

I was not expecting Ho-Oh and Charmander to be that tiny, but my gosh do they look adorable. Anyone know if there are bigger versions of those Poké Dolls?

Also peep the original price tag of the Ho-Oh. Those were the days haha

Walmart was stocked on Pokémon today. Wanted to grab a bunch of the plushes. They had all 3 gen 1 Sleeping Eeveelutions and Espeon. They also had a bunch of Arcanine, might go back tomorrow to pick it up. I decided to just grab the 8” Jolteon and the derpy face Magikarp❤️ mostly because I’m going to Comic Con next week and gotta save up (especially if I’m gonna fight ya’ll for the Team Rocket balloon plush 😂)

Hello fellow Trainers/Collectors.
I’d like to start by saying that I’ve been collecting Poké plushies for a while, mostly Jazzwares and from the US Pokémon Center. Having said that I am by no means an expert at spotting bootlegs/fakes, especially when hunting for deals. I’ve learned quite a few tips from this wonderful and helpful sub, so thank you for that.

Now having said all that, I’ve recently started getting in to collecting older plushies, specifically the Poncho plushies and Poké Dolls (only got a Ho-Oh Cape Pikachu and Lillie’s Clefairy doll) and would like your opinion on these plushies I’ve found and want to buy. From what I can see (and what I’ve learned from this sub) the tags look genuine, but I’m not very knowledgeable on the time certain designs were released. So if anyone has any info on these, or have them and can confirm if they are real, I’d appreciate it. Especially that Poncho Zard because the price is too good to be true.
Thanks

TLDR: Can you help me in finding out if these plushies sre real or not? Thanks
