Doraemon all the way. I’m not actually collecting them, but anyway I much prefer the cat with no ears and a helicopter on his head to the characterless “cute” one.
I like the Doraemon magnets better than the Hello Kitty magnets. Peanuts would be great if they started that. Hello Kitty is mainly for girlies anyway.
I thought it was a bad idea when they had the HK pins, not safe for kids.
I NEED GREECE!!! :fume: ONLY GREECE!!! :fume: WHY DO I HAVE 7 to 20 OF EVERYTHING ELSE BUT NOT GREECE??? :fume: ARE THERE EVEN ANY GREECE ONES OUT THERE??? :fume: HAS ANYONE EVEN SEEN ONE??? :fume: BWAAAAHAAAaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
I have all the Hello Kitty’s. And almost all the Doraemon’s. They’re all addictive. I just can’t help myself.
I actually did not give a shit until one of my kids rolled in with an Iraq magnet. Now they are all on the hunt for the N Korea, Afganastan and Iran ones for me
Hello Kitty magnets were by far the most addictive. Not only was it the first, but it had no competition. During the whole promotion I went exclusively to 7-11 and I would buy extra items if I was within $15 of the next $77 threshold.
Now no matter what store you go to, they’re throwing some extra collectible brik-a-brac in with your purchase. Mickey Footbal Club, Doraemon, Pokemon and who knows what else? I can’t be bothered. I give whatever I get to whomever wants it.
But during the original mouthless wonder promotion, everyone wanted my HK magnets, but I took them all home myself.
I agree the Hello Kitty ones were much more collectible, even though I hate Hello Kitty, because it was the only one out there. When everyone snatched up the trend, then it lost its appeal. Family Mart had that magnet one going with the funky little people magnets, including the " orz " guy kowtowing and then pulled it suddenly to make way for shitty little Pokemon magnets. Now I get pleasure getting them and then throwing them away in the garbage cans of the store without even opening them when there are people, particularly kids around. And I lost interest in the Hello Kitty pins when I got stabbed by one that came loose on my bag. :fume:
