Over the family day weekend my parents, brother and I took a trip to visit my grandparents in Arizona. At YVR there were a few displays of Ken Stephens's collection of Mickey Mouse figures. They were displayed in a pyramid shape and had figures from as far back as 1928 to as recently as last year. My favorite ones were the Pluto figures because Pluto is my favorite of all the Mickey Mouse characters. I also learned what animal Goofy is supposed to be which is something I have always wanted to know. I always thought he was a hippo but turns out he is actually a dog. Of all of the figures the really old ones were some of my favorites too. The colors were fading or the material was falling apart but what I loved was the person who put the collection together didn't just use newer figures. The figures also gave me something to look at while waiting for the plane to start boarding.
