Five Year Collection Brag! (very pic heavy!)
« on: September 29, 2016, 04:34:41 PM »
It feels like a while since I started seriously collecting MLP shortly after Friendship is Magic began, and it brought me back to my enjoyment of My Little Pony. Since I bought a few G1s, thinking I would just select ones I really wanted. Since I joined the arena. Since I began scanning for great finds and deals, checking thrift shops at every chance for a treasure.

I've always had to make do with small spaces to curate my growing collection, and I've shared pictures of the walk-in closet that houses my G1s and G2s now (most of my G3s are packed away, and my G4s are in me and my husbands' bedroom atop the entertainment center). Here, I did my best to showcase how far my collection has come from buying a small lot of 3 Flutter ponies so that I could get my childhood ponies back, with a little extra attention to VIPs (Very Important Ponies). A lot of these are bought from Arena members, many more are from eBay and others finds from local charity shops. That comprises most of what I've got here, though there are the odd Craigslist finds and gifts from friends and family, too.

So here we go!

It only took you five years to amass all this??? I'm jealous! I wish I had that kind of time and money!  :lol:

Seriously though, your collection is fantastic! And I really love that little canteen...G1 merch is so much fun!

In JUST five years you have amassed a lot! It makes what I've accumulated in 19 years look pretty pathetic. XD   

Really amazing collection. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much, guys. :D It's been quite an experience getting into the collector's market and fandom so much. Don't know that I'll ever have a complete US collection, but I may get close one day...

For those who remarked on the display and the shelves, they're these:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/atlantic-elite-media-tower-black-gray/9735365.p?id=1218164358640&skuId=9735365

They're the exact depth for a G1 adult pony and fit 5-6 ponies in one "compartment." I work at Best Buy so I get a good discount on these so they're a good choice.
