My niece collects, but I do not have a list of which ones she has. She used them as wall decorations in the kitchen of her new house.

If I were to type all the character pans that I have here CC would shut me down. I have over 200 of them. Not including pans used for weddings. That brings over 300+ pans I have in storage.

do you find that they become obsulete or out of style? I have passed up many because Ijust didn't see me ever using them or they seemed too dated.

I see some I want and think, "I'll never end up using that!" So I don't buy many. Plus I am not much on star tipping them. I know it's hard work but I just don't feel I've done much with a character pan that I've just had to star tip. I know that sounds rude and I am not putting down or looking down on someone else for doing this. I just feel like I cheated if I do this, am I alone in this? icon_rolleyes.gificon_confused.gif
But I do own a few:

1. stand up 3d care bear pan from 80s
2. Elmo
3. regular 3d bear pan
4. star pan
5. cuddly bear pan
6. treeliteful pan
7. puffed heart pan
8. cupid with heart pan
9. 3d egg pan
10. mini-eggs
11. wonder mold and mini wonder mold

I have about 50 of them~~I was lucky enough to inherit most of them from my aunt who decorated cakes for 40 years! Sad to say, my cousin got to them first and sold a bunch, mainly square and round pans, for some extra cash!
I can go either way on using them, the older ones are neat though. I make cakes for my son's friends or other moms who prefer the character pans--if that's what makes them happy, then I'm not going to argue!

I haven't bought any in a long time, my main use for them has been to hang on the wall of my kitchen, but for older ones I look for stuff that doesn't go out of style or a character my husband or I liked as kids. My mother bought the newest.
