My fathers girlfriend found her childhood collection of my little ponies today.
She's enjoyed watching me start restoring my own childhood herd, and so she decided to gift her ponies to me.
I'm just so delighted to have them!
I can't currently post pictures, since we have my little niece over, and she has promptly confiscated the new additions for the afternoon. (New pony fan in the making!)
But I now have 6 new lovely girls, and a lot of surprisingly cute fakies, not to mention a ton of pony outfits, and a pretty parlor play set set that will be brought home later.
The girls need a bit of TLC, but they're all in fairly good condition. I can't wait to start working on them, and have them look their best again.
There was even an extra special surprise for me in the bunch.
Ever since I've found my own childhood herd, and started looking around online to identify them, I've also encountered a ton of ponies I do not yet own, but would love to have at some point. One of the ones I instantly fell for was baby Cotton Candy. I think I must have squealed when I saw her among the bunch today. She may be a very common pony from what I've gathered, but I'm so happy to have her!
[Edit]
I finally had the time to take some pictures. Excuse the crappy background. Best available on very short notice >>
Here are the lovely new girls. Next to Bubbles, Peachy also turns out to be an Italian girl. I'd forgotten to check before.
As I said, they all could do with some cleaning and general TLC, but I'm sure I can have them look their best again.
They're posing with Twinkles. Dad's girlfriend said they'd bring the parlor home today. I cant wait to see it!
The hair on baby Cotton Candy and Dibbles looks very white in the pictures, but it's actually still a lovely pink. ^^

All but the flash prance outfit are incomplete, but I don't mind, It's to be expected after a lot of childhood playtime.
Not to mention that I've never had any real pony outfits before, so I'm very happy with these.
I'll be carefully washing these, and repairing loose seams and such to the best of my ability.
