Only LEGO-fied keychain pendant I ever bought. Only did so as sort of an emergency solution when MAGLite mini broke while I was on medical rehab back in 2013. Couldn't walk those beach paths at the Baltic Sea without some extra light in the middle of November when it was getting dark early... Still have it today, but of course the edges are all rounded off and I apparently had to change the batteries once or twice.

I've had a Darth Vader keychain in active use for about the past quarter century.  I picked it up when they first came out and decades of cohabitating with metal keys in pockets and backpacks have taken their toll.  The printing is almost entirely gone, all the crisp edges have been rounded.  Both legs have broken off (from the hip hinge, not a separation of the leg assembly itself) and one hand is missing.

My wife got me a replacement Vader about a decade ago but as I was considering replacing the old one, it dawned on me; no legs, only one hand, pretty scratched up and barely recognizable, I couldn't have mod'ed a more authentic Skywalker / Darth Vader if I tried, so I stuck with the original.

I have one of the Elves minidolls very worn on my housekeys (I need to retire her I think), most of my daily use bags have some sort of Brick keyring on at least one zip-pull. I have something LEGO on nearly all my bags :blush: .Also, all of my family have been gifted varied LEGO keyrings over the years; sometimes they even ask for a new one to replace the worn out figures.

I have also turned a few of the brick keyrings into pendants on necklaces.

Star Wars keychains seem to be very popular. I once had a Yoda keychain with short legs. A friend bought it in Legoland and mailed it to me as a surprise. It arrived three months later. I wonder what happened to it during that time period because when it arrived the small envelope it was in had been opened by the postal service (can't remember in which country) and taped back together with some sort of official tape. I also have an original Majisto keychain I bought in Legoland in the 90s. It is still in excellent condition because back then I wanted an extra Majisto minifig so I removed the chain carefully and used it as a regular minifig.
