Way too many ponies to count, but I'm happy I've got Gingerbread, Baby Sapphire, G4 StarSwirl, G3 Valenshy, the G1 School of Dance playset and so on. It's hard to mention them all, I'm always happy to have a new pony. ^^

I haven't bought a ton of ponies this year, but the ones I got were really awesome! I now have:

- Brazilian Parasol. She was my first eBay pony purchase of the year back in April. She has hardly any hair so wears a hat :). I'm chuffed to have added another Nirvana to my collection, I didn't have any Brazilian ponies.
- Bedtime Newborn Sunset, found in a charity shop for 50p!!
- Baby Surprise, an eBay purchase.
- G2 Princess Twinkle Star, found second-hand at a Steam Fayre.
- NC Applejack, an eBay purchase. She's currently in the process of being rehaired as she is bald!
- Thundercloud, another eBay purchase. I saw a reasonably priced Mountain Boy so I snapped him up :). I have three Mountain Boys now, which I never thought would happen!

Photos of everybody: http://imgur.com/a/RGJOEzn

Of course, this was also the year in which I acquired a Lullaby Nursery for free, but that's another story :).

I've had a busy pony year and lots have joined our not-quite-so-little-now herd :)

Out of all the new ponies I do have some favourites - a handsome Lightning to join my other beloved Mountain Boys, the most adorable Lemondrop and my first dip into Nirvanas thanks to some Italians (I think that others may join them in the future ;) )! 
Also two more Poseys with no hair who have both now had a makeover and live with 5 other sisters (all different, either variations or rehairs).

For me, the additions in 2018 were:

Regular/US:
Princess Aquamarine Pat. Pend. (upgrade)
TE Fizzy (dark body, upgrade)
TAF Night Glider (upgrade,  still at a friend's place)
Baby Moondancer (upgrade)
Candy Cane Mint Dreams' barrette   

UK:

Princess Primrose variant w/o medaillon, white hair   
Princess Primrose variant, Dawn's medaillon   
Princess Starburst variant, green jewel

Nirvana:
Mexcian Baby North Star
Mexican Moondancer
Argie Ribbon
Brazil Paradise (still at a friend's place)
Italian AB eyes Cotton Candy (Palomino, Macau Style)
Italian AB eyes Minty (Macau Style)   
Italian AB eyes Bluebelle   (Macau Style)

Recent releases:
Loyal Subjects "Regular" Chase Lickety Split

a set of the reeking Retro G1 Euro Rainbow ponies  :yikes:




Also this and that, some more which I've not recieved yet, some traded ones, some Dollymix which are now finally complete... 2018 has been a good pony year to me, however I'm now on a buying hiatus (pretty much, not 100%) so 2019 will most certainly be less busy in this way.

My favorites are those AB eyed Macau Style ponies as well as the Argie Ribbon and the Mexicans, not only but also due to the pristine condition they're in.

Most of the ponies I got this year were G4s. Sales on them have made it easier to get the ones I want. I'm also saving up for something, so I haven't been able to really splash out on them!

I would say my favourite is probably Tempest Shadow (with her vehicle). I just wish the UK would release her brushable.

Title: Re: Who Did You Get in 2018 and Your Favorites?
Post by: brightberry on December 23, 2018, 09:49:36 AM

Aside from Peachy, Medley and Firefly, I got all of the 35th anniversary ponies.  ^.^  I think Sunbeam is my favorite.

My collection has doubled this year, I have absolutely no idea of how many did I get this year! Too many dozens of ponies, mainly G1s.
Most exciting additions to my collection have been white HK Moondancer, greek Baby Bowtie and one of the crazy UK Princess variants!

I didn't get any ponies last year because I was eyeballing too many other items I don't need. I did find ponies on the annual Kingsday fleamarket, but they were all doubles (some upgrades though!). :lookround:
