My Discoveries


My Discoveries 
(Early Gen 2004 - Mid Recent Gen 2017)

In this photo, I'm showcasing two of the earlier-generation pets. Unlike the newer ones, these both feature magnets and have a more muted color palette, which I actually prefer for its simplicity. I find these softer, understated colors really charming. Later on, they also change the poodle mold, which I'll point out in upcoming posts.
In this picture, this is one of the fairly newer pets where the heads were removable and the new feature of swappable bodies and heads was introduced. This is when I started to stray away from collecting them because it was a severe drop in quality. They were more show-accurate but it was basically the fact that what I grew up with was changed drastically and not for the best.

    Those are some of pets I always saw in stories. I really don't see them anymore, however. Maybe they're just not as popular.

What are Littlest Pet Shops?

Littlest Pet Shop (commonly abbreviated as LPS) is a popular line of collectible toys featuring miniature, bobble-headed animal figures. Originally launched in 1992 by Kenner, the brand was later acquired by Hasbro, which revitalized the line and introduced numerous updates and variations over the decades. This comprehensive documentation will explore the evolution of LPS, detailing how these changes have reflected broader trends in the toy industry and consumer preferences. Origin and Early Years (1992-2005) The original Littlest Pet Shop toys, produced by Kenner, were simple in design and included various animal characters with movable features. These early figures were smaller and typically came with playsets such as pet salons, cozy homes, and mini shops that enhanced imaginative play. When Hasbro acquired Kenner in 1991, it took over the LPS brand and released its first collection in 1992.

Introduction

  Introduction Hey! My name is Tailor Miles, and I wanted to take a moment to talk about one of my favorite hobbies—collecting. I first got into it back in the 5th grade, and I was immediately drawn to these items because they were both adorable and perfect for collecting. Like most kids, I loved having a collection, whether it was Pokémon cards, Yu-Gi-Oh! cards, Beyblades, Barbies, or Cabbage Patch dolls. One of the best parts was trading with friends; it was always exciting to see what you could get in return for your items. As I grew older, I noticed changes in the quality of these collectibles, and not always for the better.
