So if I have one vice in Pokémon collecting, it is these cute little things: Pokémon Kids figures (also known as just finger puppets over here in the US). They're cheap (well,
some of them are cheap) and there is always at least one made for every Pokémon (and many not-Pokémon things). In lieu of trying to collect them ALL I just go for my favorites.
...I have a lot of favorites. >//<
