Back to collecting after many years
« on: July 30, 2020, 02:54:06 PM »
Hi,

I’m a somewhat casual G1 collector from Finland. Due to difficult and changing living situations my collection hasn’t been on display since 2012.

Despite that, I’m planning on displaying my collection again and I’m very eager to keep working on it. I have approximately 100 or so ponies, with some duplicates (I think I have close to 6 Lemon Drops). I also have some playsets, namely Dream Castle and Lullaby Nursery, with almost all of the accessories.

I want to focus on restoring my collection and finding the current missing accessories to some of my sets before getting back into seriously hunting for more ponies.

Most of my current ponies are from my childhood, with only the odd number having been purchased at a later date from auctions and such.

I currently don’t personally know any other collectors, especially in my area. It’d be nice to get to know more people and talk about a shared hobby.

I’m also a fan of the tv series, but I’m not (at least not yet) collecting any G4s.

Thank you! I recall my childhood favorite having been my Stripes. I think she still might be my favorite.

Thanks, I will! I've been doing some pretty extensive reading about restoration work, but if I run into a bind I'll be sure to ask for help!
