Most of us have an on going collection of something or the other like spoons, stamps, books and so on. Some are more valuable than the others and some are only as valuable as we want to make them such as sentimental value, which can be the most valuable of all.

Ever so often we will come across something that is out of the ordinary collections is one place to find them. Collecting collectible dragons is one such collection, which because is not common it is hard to pursue and maintain.

Collecting dragons is a hobby like all others that is started by some because of their cultural background and by others due to its unusual nature and myth. In China for example, collecting any type of dragons is considered good fortune and you can see that by the fact that most Chinese restaurants or houses will have in a form or the other dragons placed by the main entrance.

In the western world however collectible dragons take another form and that is followed by the usual rules of rare and old specimens with different meanings and myths to consider.

Known Collectible Dragons

The pocket size miniature set dragons was first created in 1989 after the much televised and watched TV serial called Pocket Dragon Adventures. These toy collectible dragons were very high in demand and sought after due to which about 400 different types were created.
