Hello!!

[cemeterycircus]

Hey! You can call me Cemetery, I'm a 21 year old (in November) girl from California. I'm an illustration major and I'm starting my first semester in Spring. Would have started this Fall but..Well you all know 

I'm extremely new to collecting I really just started a few days ago! It started when my partner and I watched the old movies and cartoons. They wanted to start collecting so I had bought a few as presents, and I just couldn't resist buying some for myself! I used to have soooo many toys as a kid but gave them all up when I was a teenager  So now I'm starting from scratch! Even though I grew up with G3s I'm looking to primarily collect G1s. I have a big fondness for retro and vintage things. I'm also really interested in restoration and preservation, so I'm hoping I can pick up tips or tricks from around here :o)

So far I have bought for myself a 35th anniversary recreation of starflower, G1 raincurl, G3 Dream Blue and Moondancer, and a G1 Galaxy whom I'm in the process of restoring (she's just for my collection, so I'm not planning to flip her or anything :p ), and I have Masquerade on the way! I also have the stranger things applejack, can't resist a good packaging gimmick!

I'm super excited to be here and start really immersing myself in collecting again!!
