My nephew use to ship us home Kindereggs too, when he was in Germany and it was so much fun to put the toys together. My sister has a whole shelf of the toys that she collected. Mine on the otherhand were lost during several moves. I wish you could buy them here in the states.

My snowman collection is huge, and i just have a small collection of miniatures.

I also collect bears, but my mil takes the cake on that one. Her house is loaded and I do mean loaded with bears. lol.
