Since I am not going to any convention this year I treated myself with a complete with boxed Mansion, boxed castle and bride

How's everyone doing so far? Any G2 purchases? Media?

Well there isn't that much to tell And I am not such a bragger.
I got them from the collector who has asked for help with G2 pricing in another topic. I happen to know her from my earlier collecting years. We saw each other on meetings. She had a few things from my wishlist. And I decided to take these since the chance to find them complete and in box would be very little. The bride is not super rare but loose on the card.
As said I am not going to any convention this year. They are postponed for next year. So I wanted to treat myself.

Ack my heart!
Are you gonna keep them in box? Or are you gonna display them? and Bride is not super rare? Dude! She's one of the rarest in my opinion!! I've only seen her MIB once before and I don't recall seeing her complete outside of Lavendar Lagoon and other informational sites. Congrats on this haul!

Ack I'm so jealous

[Barnacle_lady]

They are not new in the box so yes I will going to display when I created a place for them.

As for the bride. Some rare ponies can be found more on conventions than online and that's also a source to determine if a pony is hard to find. And on this side of the world the chance is bigger to see her

US ones! But I know one of them has the fluffy groom'n style pony in it
I also have one French one with some neat stuff. I still need to scan those one day!

And neat! Mansion with box!   

[Barnacle_lady]

And Freezestime, I hope one day you get to find a mansion to for that pony

Does anyone own nosy and click complete with accessories? That set is so hard to find. I’ve been hunting for years for them. Of course I still have a huge list of ponies I need. It’s just difficult to find them complete with accessories or MOC. G2’s are my favorite. Thanks for making a post about them!!!

I have them complete. I got lucky with a local French add. I believe there are 1 or 2 MOC ones around

OOOOH YAAAAY!  I LOVE this thread!  I can't believe it took me so long to see it. 

I will have to try and get some collection pictures for you all.  In the meantime, I am LOVING seeing everyone else's!

[blonde2themax]

That's awesome Moonbreeze! They are so rare I haven't seen them complete and for sale.

As I know next to nothing about the G2 lines, I'd like to ask those of you who grew up with them some questions?

What are the popular and divisive sets?
Which ponies did you see the most and least of in stores? Which sets and ponies are your personal favorites?
How sturdy or problematic were the accessories and playsets?
What are your favorite playsets?

[Skandalous]

As I know next to nothing about the G2 lines, I'd like to ask those of you who grew up with them some questions?

1. What the popular and divisive sets?
2. Which ponies did you see the most and less of in stores? Which sets and ponies are your personal favorites?
3. How sturdy or problematic were the accessories and playsets?
4. What are your favorite playsets?

1. I believe the magic motion ponies have people on different sides? Personally, I felt they looked a bit more clunky and less elegant.

2. So unfortunately I only ever saw ONE G2 in an American store: Berry Bright. That was before I got into them. By the time I fell in love, their line had ended in then USA. I did manage to find some in stores in France: Bubbles, Copper Glow, Muse, Honey, Melody, and Magic Green Butterfly.

My personal favorites at the time were ones I didn’t have xD
Glittery Study, Golden Glow, Hip Holly, Lady Elegant, Princess Silver Swirl, Princess Crystal, Eve, Princess Golden Light, Bright Bramley, Secret Heart, Ivy, etc. I think I might still have my old wishlist somewhere...

Now my favorite ponies are: Hip Holly, Magic Star Swirl, Princess Sapphire, Her Majesty Star, Her Majesty Pearl, and well, most of them

3. I personally LOVE the G2 accessories. There were some cool color change items like Pies in sponge ovens xD I like the kinetic gizmos in the play sets like buttons that reveal secret compartments. My favorite accessories were the Magician Pony ones. The magical medallion that lit up all different colors? A DREAM for little me at the time.

A lot of the accessories are fragile, though, especially the clip-on wings.

4. I only had two play sets: the anniversary set and the nursery set.

My favorite at the time was the anniversary set because of that aforementioned magic oven. To be honest, though, I was more interested in the ponies and accessories than the play sets.

And something I loved equally if not more than the ponies? THE MAGAZINES. <3
