Title: Bronycon 2017 haul
Post by: lordalexander74 on August 19, 2017, 01:50:33 PM
Had a blast this year at Bronycon. While the convention itself has lost a bit of charm (My 4th time, it's no longer new and exciting) I had more fun messing around with my friends. And I think thats what these events are really about, spending time with people you care about.
Anyways, here's some pics of all the loot me and my friends bought. We estimated the value of everything in this hotel room at a little over $10k, with nearly $4100 in plushies alone.
Over $4000 worth of high quality plushies on one windowsill. From artists like WhiteDove, Equestria Plush, Kazzy's Plush Emporium and more. Not pictured is a lifesize Rainbow Dash by KLPlushies.
Not pictured are about 10 dakimakuras for obvious reasons, and a couple Fallout Equestria plushies I commissioned earlier in the year, but didn't arrive at Bronycon in time.
All the stuff I bought. I try to go into Bronycon's vendor hall each year with a specific goal. Past few years I purchased mostly Applejack themed prints and plushies, since she's my favorite pony. This year I was looking into buying a variety of characters/merchandise. A couple cute wall scrolls, a Blackjack beanie plush by Kazzy, several prints and a Bright Mac/Pear Butter paper craft. That last one was a must buy, it's adorable.
Not pictured are a couple Fallout Equestria plushies I commissioned a while ago, but didn't arrive at Bronycon in time for pickup.

Holy crap! Very sweet plushies. And the Rarijack print is hilarious, I love that artist.
Who's the pony with red and black mane?

That'd be Blackjack, from the Fallout Equestria Project Horizons fanfic

Holy guacamole that's a lot of pony! Sounds like you had a pretty great time! But now I have to ask: how did you get all this home? I've only ever been to bronycan, and I bought a lot of plushies. Mom and I had to play Tetris in order to fit them in the bag. So how did you get all this stuff home? Magical talent for packing?

Not all of that was mine. There was ~16ish people in my group, carpooling up from eastern TN. We had plenty of room for loot between a pickup truck, a minivan and a large SUV. Course a couple people had to sit with plushies in their lap, not that that was an issue.

Omg, what a lot of pony loot from you and your friends. It's great you got to catch up with them all again and also to buy some (lots!) of new ponies and merch while you were there. Congrats and thanks for sharing :frolic:
