If you had a time machine...
« on: September 21, 2014, 09:16:36 AM »
...and you could use it to teleport to ONLY ONE dat and ONLY ONE location... where would you go for the sake of pony-ness?

I'd like to travel to UK around 1982, so I could catch up the whole line, since G1! And being in UK, I could get Mountain Boys...

Japan, in the 80's when they released Takara ponies.  I would have bought the whole freaking shop stock!  :D

how about back to 1999 to convince Hasbro to make boy ponies in the G3 line?

Gosh I always think about how amazing it would be to go back to the 80s as an adult and see all the ponies MOC on the shelves. I'd have to research which year/date specifically but I would go and buy everything they had and it'd be the happiest moment ever. :inlove: I'd also make sure Sweet Scoops was available so I could get her.

Also pictures. Tons of pictures. I know there are some out there but I'd make even more.

1988, I want to buy myself a brand new Lavender Dream Castle :heart: my favourite playset of all pony playsets in existence... While I'm there I might be able to find the second set of Pony Friends still on shelf, and I could mail order some of my rarer wants like Dabble/Scribbles and Li'l Cupcake/Li'l Sweetcake as well.

Honestly, I would go back to when we moved out of our house and I had to box my ponies up! I would make sure they get to my GRANNY'S house instead of my NANNY'S house-where they are forever lost or burned :(

I would go back and get all of the MLPs that my grandma bought for me but never gave me. I've heard she had a bunch that were still on their cards because she would buy one, change her mind about it and buy another. I'm not sure what happened to them though. She did give me ponies but I would have loved to see the others that she had bought.

I'm not sure what year it was, but I remember a shelf at a store with lots and lots of ponies.. I passed up on one of the baby boys as I wanted a Barbie. I don't remember which one as the colour I remember don't match any of the releases I've seen on pictures. I would go an scoop up the entire shelf.

Hmmm... for me it's really, really hard to say because there are so many places I'd like to travel to...

But the one time period I'd like to go to the most is the 1980s US at the beginning of the MLP line - I'd get all the ponies from there while also travelling to the Europe to nab myself some exclusive there. I'd probably spend a LOT of money, but it'll be totally worth it, considering I'd then have all those lovely ponies. <3 <3 <3

Um do we get to stay in that time period? If so I would go back to 1981 and watch everything unfold and buy everything as it came out.....

I'd go back to the 80s so I can acquire the second set of Sea Ponies... and anything else in particular that I might want, but especially those. Then maybe stick around for a few years, save up some pony points and get all the MOs.
