I do a lot of research on buyers and pokemon merch before I buy anything, to avoid accidentally purchasing a bootleg. Some bootlegs are nice, but it really doesn't feel good having something that's obviously fake. Luckily I haven't really got a bootleg since I started collecting for real, and I mostly collect plush dolls of my favorite Pokemon anyway.
Pic related is what I have so far. The next piece I am looking for is a Banpresto Porygon-Z plush, which looks Pokedoll-esque, and very cute.
