Apparently I'm Starting a Squishmallows Collection?

[spiralicious]

I am not an avid Squishmallows collector, mostly due to price point and space to house them, but I got unreasonably excited about the 5" (4"?) Halloween Mystery Squad capsules this year. We did have a local store that actually got them in, but they also sold out almost completely the same day they went out. I did manage to get one, though I had hoped for more. I knew I would be happy with any of them, even if I did have a hierarchy of most wanted. The pumpkin was at the bottom of the list and the werewolf was at the top.

Things in my life got a bit crazy and I didn't get a chance to open it until November (I had been waiting until Halloween day). It turns out I got the pumpkin Squishmallow with the werewolf's tag. This amused me greatly.

This was also apparently a gateway Squishmallow.

In mid November, the discount grocery store we do most of our shopping at had the entire Desert Squad for a third of the going retail price at the time. I couldn't decide between Asley the Vulture and Oden the Peccary Pig, so I bought both. (I think they are the 12" size.) I did hand them over to someone else to hide them from me until Christmas.

They are so soft and squishy and I have missed them while I have been housesitting.
