Bag of extras

Sharp-eyed readers might have noticed a few extra miniatures in yesterday's spoils of the day photo.

They're fish.
More specifically, they're bags of fish.
These are more blind bag toys.
As he was buying our Series 1 Make It Mini Animals, he also - accidentally - acquired a whole bunch of these.
These are more bags of fish than any one person needs, so some of them came home with me.
Truth be told, I don't need this many bags of fish either. Accordingly, I've decided to give some of them away.
But that's not all! Between the two of us, Angelo and I ended up with four baby capybaras.
I immediately googled capybara litter size and learned the range is one to seven, with three being typical. I decided three was the correct number for my capybara family.
Angelo being Angelo didn't want the fourth, so that one plus his ball full of stuff will go with the fish.

  3. That photo of Piper with the fish is just too funny. I love fish, dread confession (they are the perfect counterbalance to too many horses). Not particularly capybaras, although I am pleased to hear that Google knows all about them.

    2. I think the real cheat is buying opened balls on eBay. That's how we got the series 1 animals that we wanted.

  8. Love miniature items. I’m usually sad when my granddaughters get something I like and then either destroys it or loses it. Good luck everyone!

  11. I have to be really careful buying blind boxes because I very much want to have All The Things in a collection so it can get quite pricey 😅

    The fish in their bags are really cute though and remind me of winning a goldfish at the fair.
