Description
So I disposed (squished) of my Paperpokè collection, as I needed the space for books on my shelves, and the models were becoming a health hazard (dust and more dust).Only half of them would fit on the table; and it looked so funny, that I took a photo. Now my noes itches and I can't stop sneezing, but at least my office looks much cleaner and neater!
I did keep a handful of them, the ones that have the most sentiment to me, like Lapras, Snorlax and all the Gengars, but the rest are balls of paper in a big black bin liner waiting for the garbage truck to pick them up next recycling day.
Don't cry - they had a good life

XD that is so sad that you had to get rid of them though!

Yeah and no. I kept them for as long as I needed to.
You just can't keep everything forever, especially in this house - it's too small!

yeah...true enough...I know the feeling! It's just such a shame seeing those perfect models go away

The thing to remember is that they are all made of paper, and at some point, they stop looking perfect and start looking tired. If, on the other hand, they were vinyl, I would love them and hug them and I would call them George (Bugs Bunny referrence).

bahaha...yes, fantastic reference
and yes...eventually I suppose they would stop looking as good, but I'm sure there will be more awesome pokemon to follow

I kept a few, that I just couldn't part with, e.g.: Lapras one reminds me of her too much, and Jiggly was the very first one I made, Mudkip because I heard I liked it, Psyduck because it took so darn long to get to a working version, and so on. I think I kept about a dozen or so.
Some I just had to toss, even if I didn't want to, because they had been mortally wounded (the shelves face the front door and in summer they can get blown around) and could not be repaired after a 7-shelf drop!

Yeah, I know what you mean, I do have a long history of cleaning my shelves so...
I mean, the only one I have left, beside the few ones I built this year, is Link's Pictobox. I need to rebuild my WoW bird and Boomkin, and I regret throwing away that Shuckle now

Oh, that Pictobox is cool - I wouldn't throw that away either! I had to get rid of the miniblins because they got wind damaged last summer, and I miss them "deh-denk". I often think of rebuilding some of the models, and I still have that massive "to do" list, that I'll probably never get around to doing, but we can dream, right?
Did I ever tell you that Rey offered me that pokè penguin that Dinna built when I visited her, I said no because I didn't think it would travel well in my suitcase, but in hindsight, it would have been nice to have something of hers.

aw, i'd like to have that Empoleon too
I wonder what Rey did with em, I think I remember someone saying he put them in a box somewhere... not sure tho. Anyway, I have her pictobox, that's good enough

He said that it broke his heart to look at them so he was going to get rid of them when they got home

Nah, Nobody would want my dust old pokèmon papercraft!
Besides, I couldn't have charged for them, so the P&S alone would cost more, lol!
