Lately, I've been trying not to start any new collections, but from time to time it is just unavoidable for me. My latest obsession has been trying to find little advertising figures. There are tons of advertising things out in the world, but I am specifically on the hunt for anthropomorphic food people from fast food restaurants. Why? I have no clue... it's just kind of an inner need to find cute things with faces. Therapy might help to curb these desires, but for now I go to ebay to satisfy them. My latest additions just arrived in the mail this weekend: the onion ring basketball player and french fry nerd are from Jack In the Box and the singing A&W root beer is from A&W Restaurants.
On a side note, if you like advertising characters and never saw the book Meet Mr. Product, you should go buy it now. It came out a few years ago, but you'll love flipping through it!
