Little me would just ruin them like I ruined my G3s. Little me was a cruel brat.

Young me would be over the moon over Princess Tiffany and baby Princess Sparkle (but bummed I don't have her carriage). Younger me would also be squealing over the fact I have baby Applejack and Bowtie; I know adult me did when I first found out they existed!!

Child me would be surprised, considering ponies weren't at all my favorite toys to play with.

Disappointed my childhood collection didn't fully make it. But that wouldn't be a surprise for how many times my dad saved them from the trash and warned me.

But that's ok since it was mostly my childhood best friends collection that was at the heart of it all. (she had well over 100 of them lol)

I'd also be impressed with creamsicle. Didn't know she existed back then and totally was in love with giraffes.

I just don't think I would ever leave my room again.

This was exactly what I thought.

Also I would be super excited that Medley, Glory, Firefly etc actually were real and I could hold them and groom them and play with them like I always wanted to as a child (my mother actually looked reeeally hard for Glory when I was little because I wanted her so much, but she never found her, because she wasn't sold here :()

I would be happy that my childhood ponies were still with me after all this time. (That thanks to Mum saying 'keep them a while and think about it, don't get rid of them' and she was right).

Childhood me would also probably then alert childhood sister, and a whole lot more sunshine ponies than just our childhood two would go hanging out of the window on shoelace bungee jump ropes...

Child me would be absolutely horrified and confused. I hated super girly things like dolls and ponies, and the pink aisle was scary. I was a tomboy with two elder brothers that I played video games with, I was constantly mistaken for a boy because of my short hair but always shouted I was a girl despite how much I disliked girly toys... plush toy dogs were my thing.

It wasn't until I was 18 and FIM came out that I fully embraced my ideology that I can like whatever I want and who cares what other people think. Before then I was only vaguely aware of MLP, and only G3s... I had no idea what I was missing out on lol. ^.^

Same tulips!! I was more "girly" than my tomboy best friend, but ponies were a step too far XD I was I stuffed animal kid. I remember one birthday my mom asked if I wanted any ponies and we agreed I didn't really like those. Now how I wish she did get me some!!

I think younger me would be shocked. I was a pretty androgynous child, more into roleplaying and imagination than dolls... I was kind of raised to not like girly or childish stuff, because my parents didn't like it, so I always "hated" ponies and stuff as a kid. :( But at the same time, I think she would be relieved to see that I'm able to enjoy "girly" stuff and would want to play with them. Ultimately I feel like she'd be alarmed by some of the prices I pay for my collectibles though!

Child me would be so disappointed! Pink was not only my least favorite colour, but probably my least favorite thing in the universe :P Horses were my least favorite animal, specifically because that's what the other girls liked, and unicorns? EWW! I always liked playing with toys, but they had to be cool toys with moving parts and whatnot. None of that cute or beautiful nonsense... With that said, I would probably be somewhat excited about having this many toys :lol:

Well I still have all of my childhood Ponies somewhere which she would probably be happy about though entirely expecting it (I've never liked to throw things out) and now I have nearly all the ones released here as well as several from Europe. I remember wanting my babysitter's childhood Ponies too, so I'd probably be glad I have some like those since the only G1 Pony I found as a child was Baby Sweetstuff, I would definitely be glad that I could easily watch the original T.V. show too.

The current series I'd probably enjoy as well along with the current toys (yes, they're small, but I've always loved small things, plus my hands have always been a bit small too), and believe it or not I'd actually understand keeping some of them in boxes; the first toy I decided to keep in it's box was a Barbie doll my grandparents brought back from Europe for me when I was about 8, she's still in her box and I saw her just the other day

Kid me would be happy that eventually I ended up with so many more ponies than the three I had my entire childhood (granted I had /tons/ of toys as a kid but only three MLPs^^;).

When my nephew was very young, his reaction was to look around and go, "Too much, Aunt Shan." 

Letting my niece into the room is like giving her an immediate sugar high. 

I imagine my child self would be somewhere in the middle.

I would be like you have how many ponies now, and some are from WHERE! YOU HAVE MIMIC?!  Play sets galore!!!   :enthralled: :enthralled: :happy: I would be thrilled that all of my childhood, gift ponies and flea finds are still with me.
