I don't mind G2, but certainly here in the UK, they're much harder to come by. Since I can't buy online, I rely on charity and second-hand shops for past generation ponies, and the ones near me have only had G1 and G3 so far. I would certainly buy a G2 pony if I found one, but it's just that I haven't.

I like G2 a lot :) Recently started to collect them (after more than 10 years of trying to deny that I like them XD).

First I have to mention Moonbreeze has a nice site about g2, I am positive she will pop in here too.

My g2 collection is near complete, I think I miss 20 something and some are hard to find.

@Enarocketqueen, if you have the chance go to UK Ponycon. There are always vendors who sell G2 for a nice price.

I have a very small but loved collection of g2 ponies, love every single one of them especially since I got most of them cheap as people I bought them from listed tHem a fakies on eBay.  :lol:

I would certainly buy a G2 pony if I found one, but it's just that I haven't.
I think we've moved past the point of them being plentiful at carboots as well. They were never as successful here as G3, or as in Europe (though better than the US). I have seen them at carboot sales here in the last year though. Early ones, too.

I had some when they came out, I still have them, I don't genuinely remember which ones I have though after that. I have a box full. I also have a bunch of MOC I bought in Paris in 1999 or 2000 and then promptly forgot I had until I found them in the attic, including a Hip Holly I thought I had sold years ago O.O.

I need to get them down, sort them out, work out what I have and then pack them more securely. I like them. I just have minus space issues thanks to G1.

I like G2!  The eye gems and the feathering around the hooves on them are nice details I wouldn't mind seeing revisited at some point by Hasbro.  I only have 1 G2 though (and her eye gems need a replacement which is getting mailed to me right now!), they are quite uncommon here.

My Little Wiki has a few G2 websites in its community portal section by the way:

I am not collecting them only because I have to draw the line somewhere as I really do collect a lot of stuff. I love it all, but anything I that I only like, well, its just better to not go there and save space for what I truly love the most. I think the g2s are adorable! If I had the space, I would happily collect them. I remember buying 2 back in 1997 at Target. Seeing them in package I was like "What?? It's MLP!!!!" I kept them for a very long time, but regrettably sold them when I sold off all of my ponies.

Yes :D I grew up with G2 and had to collect them all once I could put aside the money :P So I got most of mine when the G2s weren't popular at all. I remember being calling G1 ponies piglets when I first saw them xD

I've made a website about them, you can find the link in my signature. I'm also collaborating with Yum-Yum to make a new G2 book.

I'm a huge G2 lover.  I still have my collection.  Here are my favorite guides:

http://gen2.aien-hime.com/
http://mlpland.com/?l=2
http://lavenderlagoon.weebly.com/

I think a lot of the information for cleaning the ponies are crossed over from other guides.  They do seem more durable.
