Well, again...please understand that I'm not criticizing you. But it still seems dumb to me.
And no, I reeeeeaaaaaally wouldn't like to see more than one topic. One is more than enough, thank you. But I don't believe I was implying that anyway.

Well then, where else do you propose we talk about plushes and other Balto merchandise?
But now the pages are going to increase with this debate..

I don't know, really. I wasn't aiming for a debate, or a suggestion as to where else to talk about it. I was merely observing that it is shocking to me that twelve pages (and counting) of discussion could be taken up talking about a stuffed toy dog. Let's try and not turn it into a debate, hmm?

paying extroadinary prices for Balto or any other merchandise is a pain.. I highly urge people to check thrift stores and yard sales for Balto merchandise since that's where I got my Balto Plush and my Steele look-a-like (sort of) plush for about $5.00 for the two of them. and they are in much better condtion than half of the plushes on Ebay.
but as the wise man say "it's your money".

well it was back in late 2002 or early 2003 I think.. but Balto merch at that time was expensive (not as expensive now) maybe I just got a really lucky break *shrugs*

Do you have a picture of the Steele-look-alike plush? Sounds interesting..

Yes, but in comparison to others we've been discussing, it isn't that bad.

I like this plush because he's a mix between evil and cute  sometimes I think of him as Steele's son/nephew/cousin

-nods- Same here. I'm the UK.. the most stuff I'm likely to come across at car boot sales and jumble sales are KFC figures and stickers.. and I'm sure they're hard enough to come by.
