While I'm on here, I'll post a small collection update!

Last year I was living in Portland Oregon, and for the first time EVER I got the privalege to go to a massive Pokemon TCG gathering (States possibley?) There were a few vendors there, just as I had hoped!  And though a lot of things were expensive, I managed to get a pretty sweet mini horde for

Awn, thank you! I think it is an official item, but just old. There's a couple of coinbanks I've seen that are pretty vintage but look legit.

Initially I saw this Chikorita one. It looks bigger and it's so coooool!





I've see the Totodile one floating around...


And I guess long ago they had these cute little coin banks from Banpresto you could win as a lottery prize!

I think that's what this Clefairy is, but the only issue is the plug that went in the bottom is missing. And of course all of these are vinyl. The Clefairy is legit ceramic! If it's a bootleg it's a SUPER convincing one.

Wow, thanks for the info! <3 They're all so adorable ;u; Ceramic figures/piggy banks look so awesome, I wish they'd make more of them!

Yeah, initially I had no idea that the TCG tournament had vendors either! They didn't have many of Pokemon Center vendors though. Just two or three little independent tables. The rest were all card/sleeve tables. But they still had some really cool cards! Especially for the misprint/shadowless/first edition collectors. Plus some of the cards/promos only available in Japan.

The event took place right in Portland's convention center! They have a lot of MTG stuff there too. Don't know if you're a fan of their art, but they also hold cute little craft shows from local artists during spring and fall. :) They hold some pretty cool events for sure!
