Fossil Times: It's Toy Time
/In our never ending series of posting Fossil Times newsletters we are proud to post Volume 4, Issue 3. Now you maybe wondering it’s been so long since you posted any of these and last post was Volume 4, Issue 1……so where is Issue 2? Sadly….very sadly Fossil fans we no record of this issue exists and we do have our bathroom monkeys actively searching for any signs of Issue 2, but until then please accept Issue 3.
Not all newsletters can be winners and Issue 3 isn’t one of the greats. There are a few highlights and we’ll review
Collaborations are no doubt something you’ve seen with Fossil lately – all these collaborations in 2019 with Crosley, Pride, etc and way back in 1997 Fossil collaborated or teamed up with T.K. Toys of Japan to come up with some limited-edition pieces that came with tin toys. These toys launched at $150 each and they definitely haven’t retained their value over the years, but with a run of 5000 pieces each – they are one of the rarer LE’s.
The second page is 100% dedicated to the Collectors Breakfasts that we have discussed before. We are still looking for anyone with photos or exclusive merchandise that was available at either of these 3 locations.
The Sneak Preview is well stocked this time with 2 Mickey Mouse pieces,1 James Bond watch…. including the gold one that was limited to 1000 pieces and finally the infamous Boba Fett LI-1619 and 1620 – the Boba Fett is one that I’ve always liked and I do go back and forth on getting one on eBay. Christmas 2019 here we come!
Not much else to highlight as we wind down 1997 and start moving towards 1998. Volume 4, Issue 4 coming up next!
