Selling 30 years worth of collector-worthy toys! 🧸

For serious toy collectors and knick-knack enthusiasts, you’re gonna wanna sit up to read this! 🫵🏻 I got to know of this vintage collector (lol I don’t even know her name but she’s @fillet1703 on Instagram) through a friend’s igs and from what I gather, she’s been collecting vintage toys for over 30 years and she’s now letting go some of them at her warehouse space!

📆 The warehouse is usually open twice a month on Saturdays so keep a lookout for the details on her igs, she usually posts like a couple days before. I was in the area when her warehouse was open earlier this month so I dropped by to see if I could find any childhood memorabilia!

🚶🏻‍♀️ First off, the warehouse space is VERY neatly packed and meticulously organised in bins with lots of walking space so it makes the shopping experience a whole lot easier!

💰 Besides the bins, there are areas with toys in mint packaging which if you’re a collector, you would know the toys here are worth more in the reseller’s market!

🍟 Before visiting, I didn’t know there was a community of Happy Meal Toy collectors in Singapore but apparently there is and they often buy complete sets to display!

🐱 I recently acquired a Hello Kitty plushie charm that I’ve been using on my bags so I’ve been on the hunt to grow its friend circle! Couldn’t believe my eyes when I found the Green Phantom quartz Hello Kitty Happy Meal Toy from 2004 in it’s original packaging! 💚 It has a loop on the top so I can use it as a bag charm too!

🎀 Was hoping to find my birth year Holiday Barbie here but alas, the search continues! These are still very pretty to look at though.

💜 Another Hello Kitty item that stood out to me was the purple PEZ dispenser, how cute is she with the winky face and rabbit on her head? Sadly, she’s part of this set and I can’t buy her alone so I decided not to get it!

👀 Bratz fans definitely need this in their collection! So rare to see a full set in the flesh!

🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve never heard of Mimi and the Goo Goos but apparently they are similar to Polly Pockets with moveable parts and all. And since they are in their original packaging, the entire set costs $200+! 😱

🎮 Found this Nintendo DS Animal Crossing in one of the bins, but I don’t think I have time to play Animal Crossing now so it’s a pass for me.

✍🏻 Overall, it was a pretty fun experience to spend a couple of hours pouring through the all toys and rummaging through the bins! If you’re a toy collector, I’d definitely recommend you to make the trip down!
