I think all the bashing on Stitch is simply because he was the only 'franchise' character that WDFA was able to put out last decade and they overexposed the hell out of him/it. But the film was wonderful. And the music was as well.

Fair enough ... I am a collector of MANY things!

Thats just your collection/keepers. The amount of traders one has is a whole other ball game... See I have only about 3,500 so I'm just in the obsessive category >> Yep. I should have grabbed that Dumbo at Prop Control I wanted ... but I am NOT obsessive ... yet, so I left it for you!

A relative of mine collects them and when she got ready to move, she took them off the shelves they were displayed on and most of them had lost between 1/4 and 1/2 the water in them. I would guess at some point within 10 years they'll be bone dry ... and then what are they worth?
Originally Posted By bobbelee9 I just checked mine. Most of them haven't lost any water. I got my first about 20 years ago. Some are down maybe 1/4 inch. But they could have been bought that way.
