Hello
« on: November 30, 2018, 10:54:47 AM »
Hello to everyone, I'm new to the arena, I'm 47 years young and have been actively collecting MLP since 2007, but actually got bitten by the bug once in late 90's and then again around 2004, but it took two vintage girls to work their magic to get me well and truely hooked! they were fine and fancy Dancing Butterflys and Brilliant Blossoms from merry go round ponies. I saw them in a charity shop and was hit by such joy and nostalgia, that there was no way they were going anywhere else but home with me!.

I have a selection of ponies from all the year rangers in my collection, but my first loves are the Vintage G1 and G3, girls.
I have 116 ponies all together along with comics, books, dvds and videos too.

My only regret is that i don't have childhood playtime moments to remember with them as i was considered too old at 12 when they came out in the uk in 1983, to have them.  but the not so little big girl in me still hankers after the 1984 Dream Castle, the Grooming Parlour, and show stable!

Most of my girls come from Charity shops, Ebay, or new from Argos or Tescos!

Well that's all from me. bye for now, Amanda.

Welcome to the arena! Sorry to hear that you did not have ponies in your childhood! You sure can make up for it now! :)

And I also love your site name! I am also named Amanda and I am age 34 right now! LOL

Thanks! Neither of them were made by me however, you can make requests in the Adoptables forum! It's not as active as it used to be but if there aren't any that are open at the moment, you can always ask if someone would draw something for you. :) And most adoptable makers offer Hasbro characters for everyone so you can also check if any of the older threads have your favourite pony!
