AFTER receiving her first toy aged three, 27-year-old Caroline Rayner is still collecting and won't be stopping anytime soon.

With more than 400 cuddly characters Mrs Rayner is vying for the world record for collecting Disney toys - currently held by American Mary Brooks, who has more than 1,411 different objects related to Donald Duck.

Mrs Rayner, of Westmoreland Road, Bromley, said: "What I love about them is that they all have different personalities.

"My favourite is Bolt - from the early computer generated imagery films."

The retail sales assistant says her husband of two years keeps the collection ticking over by buying her Disney memorabilia.

Despite the huge number, Mrs Rayner says space is not a problem.

She added: "It’s not too bad actually - they have to stay in the bedroom though.

"They go from my side of the bed round the room."
