1992: Mail Order Pets
1992
/
Mail Order Assortment /
Special Offers Collection
Note: |
Although five different Mail Order Pets
were advertised, collectors seem to have only received
three of them: the monkey, the gray bunny,
and the black & white dog (the turtle and the gray dog were most likely
unproduced prototypes).
A tan monkey
was featured in the advertisement, though it was rarely sent out; most
collectors who received a monkey found that it was identical to the brown
monkey with magenta collar in 1992's
Magic Monkeys set. The gray bunny and black & white puppy seem
to be the most commonly received Mail Order Pets.
Strangely enough, LPS collector Lati
received the calico cat from 1993's
Charming Kittens set when she sent in her Mail Order Pets offer
materials. She shares this interesting memory: "I really really
wanted all 5, so even though the offer said you could only get 3, I sent
in a ton more proofs of purchase and paw print points than they required,
and wrote a letter asking if they would please send me all 5 pets. They
actually DID send me 5: The black and white dog, the brown monkey (not the
tan one), 2 of the grey bunnies (I gave one to my best friend), and,
oddest of all, the calico kitty from the charming kittens set. I didn't
realize how weird and cool that was at the time!" |
