Just A Bunch of Random Buzz Stuff, Part 2

IMG_0407

Because I’ve chosen to attempt to blog my collection from oldest to newest, and from crappiest to coolest, it means I end up with a bunch of random stuff that doesn’t fit in a nice little collection. That’s what I’ve been trying to do. If I have a group of related items I put them together. It makes sense and saves time. Who would want to see an entire post on every single pen (or pin) that I own? So here we are. Another unrelated group of Buzz stuff. All of which is currently stored in the clear plastic tub you see in the picture.

Let’s see what we have here, shall we?

Buzz Lightyear Dental Hygiene Collection

I’ll be the first to admit that today’s items are not in any way interesting or entertaining. These were purchased back in the early days when I would buy anything that had a Buzz on it.

We wrap up this week with a well worn collection of Buzz toys given to me over the years by children.

Which would be an odd thing were I not a Children’s Pastor from 2001-2013. Once the kids find out I’m a Buzz fan, they love to give me their old figures.

I’m ashamed to say that I have not kept many of them. Once I forget who they came from they lose their value. Plus these kids are 18+ now. They don’t care or remember anyway.

So although I don’t recall when these were given or who gave them, I do have a few comments for each.

Toy Story Dishes

Buzz Lightyear Dishes

 

Here we have a  collection of Toy Story dishes featuring Buzz Lightyear and his friends. From left to right a bowl, plate and child-sized spoon and fork.

All of these items display the Toy Story 2 logo so that means I most likely bought them between 1999-2000. These items have never been used and are in mint condition.
