hey all, about 2 years ago i got addicted to these things called homies. they are little 1 1/2 inch figures that look like "homies." since i started collecting ive been addicted and have about 200 or so. you get them for $.50 in vending machines at food stores or other stores that have vending machines. anyway i was wondering if any1 else collects and how many you have. if you wish to check them out, go the the home-page www.homies.tv |

I got one once, and it was pretty cool, but I never really got into them.

I used to get them all the time because I used to hang out at Pizza Hutt and my friend liked them, and just gave me all the ones he had doubles of and stuff..

The only one I got was a Hijo and I set it on fire. Now they have Italian ones.

Longs Drugs sells 12 of them on a blistercard, for about 3 bucks. They've been siiting there for God knows how long though. Especially the hilarious pack, with a Homie in a wheelchair. I always imagine that fire hydrant scene from Blood In Blood Out when I see it.

We had them at work last summer... if I figured out which ones were rare I was going to steal them and put them on eBay.

I have a little over 3/4 of every one ever made. Missing most of series 1,5, and 6. Other than that I think I bought all of them. Now I wish I could just trade them all in for 50 cents each. I sold a bunch for 25 bucks or so, because I guess the Pimp and the Wheelchair guy are rare and they were in there.

I bought like a lil bobble head joker one, but thats it. My friends little brother has every homie and all like its friends like made. He has the clowns and crap. Its amazing how into collecting them he is. He has em all set up together, hundreds of em. And I go over his house and knockem all down ad he cries.  |

I used to work for a company that put the little "homies", or rings, or stickers in the capsules.
It was a good job for some extra cash, but I don't work there any more.

I still have hundreds of them somewhere... yeah...!!! those were great! my local foodstore had 3 homie machines, a MINI WRESTLING FIGURE machine (they were little masked guys that were hard plastic and all in 1 color) and Mini aliens that were holding things like cake, basketball, boxing gloves, ect so i bought $3 worth of homies out of each machine  |
