Title: Show us your collection! 2019 thread :D
Post by: heftysmurf76 on March 02, 2019, 10:41:27 AM
Hello Everypony!  After a recent renovation I was forced to finally organize my collection of Rare and International G1s, this is not all of them, and not even but a 1/4 of my nearly complete collection of G1s(with some customs mixed in for good measure, as well as Care bears and Smurfs), but anyway I was so pleased with the inexpensive shelving I found and to finally be able to properly display my collection, that I had to share! :D <3 P.S. If there's any you'd like to see close ups of, or have questions, please don't hesitate to ask

Ohh your collection is just gorgeous Hefty! Your display looks so tidy and I'm squirming with jealousy over your DBs and your Cascade and your baby dragons and your care bears! :good: :frolic:

What a great collection, those shelves are perfect! They fit everything in perfectly without it looked overstuffed. I’m super jealous of those dragons!
I’m glad you started this thread! I’m in the middle of ripping everything up and reorganizing my shelves! Hopefully this will be motivation for me to move a little faster and get some pics up! :P

Lovely! I like seeing everyone's displays! I'll try to get some updated photos tonight. I've been collecting again between HQG1C, repros and just having extra cash again. My collection is getting a new home next winter once I finish liquidating my late father's trains. Which is an impressive collection on its own, just not my hobby.  :lovey:

Thank you!!! These are some of my most prized ponies! DBs are definitely faves, I wish I could display more of them but they will have to wait until I get more shelves,because there's only room on teh top shelf for them :D

Ooooh so pretty! :) Your display looks super super great!

Thank you! Looking forward to seeing your collection!

Thank you! The dragons hold a special place in my heart! I appreciate the compliment saying it looks tidy, I spent a lot of time arranging everything "just so" he he
Glad I may have inspired some  motivation! :D

I love those shelves Hefty! They're perfect. I use a lot of media shelves (the ones for either CD's or DVD's) are those the same?

Do you have a picture of your entire collection to share? We love to oggle!! :o)


I do need to update photos of 'the room' will post soon...

Thank you! The Roller skating ponies are like so totally 80s!!! :frolic:

The irony being they're from the 90s. I often think sets like theirs and the Rockin Beats are 80s wannabes, they try so hard to be hip ;)

Your shelves look great, though I admit I have a deep desire to grab the fakie and remove it somewhere o.o.

I dun even know if I have any pics of my collection. Even if I do, though, I suspect they may scare people. It's more like a tardis of ponydom than a beautiful display. I have no space :/

Thanks!!! yep these are media shelves! I discovered them when I needed a set for my Blu Ray collection, very inexpensive($30 per unit on Amazon)...The rest of my collection is all in storage currently, I plan to get 2 more units next month and I'll definitely post more/update the thread when I do! I can't decide if I want to display some G4 stuff, more G1s, or what, definitely going to devote at least 3 shelves to HQG1Cs!

  Lol , yep, they are from teh 90s, but they definitely give the 80s vibe ;)

Thanks! and Awwwww. my poor RnS is really hapy with her friends Tux  and Ice Crystal...she hold a very special place in my heart and collection......That side of teh shelves is a amalgam of ponies anyway, lots of customs toward teh bottom and I also plan to have some G2s join Hip Holly...

You guys have so many drool-worthy ponies - congrats! You have every right to be proud of your collections  :) I don't have a photo of my full (though much more modest) collection, but will try to take some on the weekend. I did receive some new ponies yesterday though, which I am extremely happy about. They came from America from an amazingly efficient seller called strawberrybabyhugs.

Oh please please please!!! I would LOVE to see pics of your collection. My pony room/chamber of secrets is starting to get really crowded too, as it is very small. Also I've been wondering for years now what your collection would look like! *puppydogeyes*

You've seen my room, I think, but it's a whole lot messier since these were taken.

Customs and some art.

@Hefty, the MH poster came from the UK Monster High magazine. I think there was usually a poster in every issue.

taken me forever to finally remember to get new photos.  :lol: My shelf is at capacity for G1s and I have another area for g3/4 but I'm hoping to move my collection into the space that was my father's train collection once it's sold(it's awesome but not my hobby). So all my collections will have it's own spot. (TMNT, ponies, and American girl).

Ok, so home at the moment, so took some photos.

Almost all my G3 ponies and G2 ponies plus playsets are in storage in the attic, and I warn you, this is an ongoing battle between space and pony invasion :) All my backcards and such are also in a separate place and so are the Dream Beauties and Hushabye, which I couldn't get to to photograph.

The MIP items live in the three top cupboards. Most of them are not visible though :)
Spoiler

The top of the Jem cabinet which is a mix of ponies, MIP ponies, and Jem stuff in box.

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


The top of the wardrobe and the shelf - the ponies at the front are mint upgrades. Excuse my clothing. There are a bunch of newborn twins and their accessories bagged up in the twin boxes behind. If you squint you MIGHT see Noodles poking his nose out :) I have too many twins. Just generally. But I love them :D  Ponies on the top shelf are all Nirvana or variants of some kind - from Euro Speedy to Peru and Greek Medley to a bunch of NC ponies. One of my Starglows is also there. The other is in the cupboard...ah, and the deflocks, except Fifi, who appears in another image.

Shelf in the cupboard over the sink has MIP and upgrade overspill. Shouldn't be on its side, gave up trying to persuade my PC it wanted to keep it flipped.

Top of the wardrobe. There are a bunch of MIP things in here, in boxes, wrapped in bubblewrap, etc. You might make out some MOC TAF ponies at the top lying down. Starflash & Star Gleamer in UK boxes <3. And some HQG1C :D

Top two shelves of the main pony cupboard. See how many you can identify.

Next shelves down :) Some likely characters at the front of the bottom left shelf. Top right hand shelf is Nirvana - mostly Italy, at the front largely Brazilian. Bottom has half of the babies. All my different Baby Mischiefs live there too :)

visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Some duplication here, but very bottom shelf houses the rest of the babies/newborns/teenies (not in the box in the wardrobe) and on the right are variations, upgrades, and also now retros. Baby Sea Ponies used to be there but now they are wrapped in a box under the sink so no longer visible.

I inherited the cabinet from my grandfather. All my SS ponies and wingers live inside of it. All the flutters inside have wings, though most are repaired wings rather than undamaged. But they are original wings, not repros.

Some of the G4 live in front of them. And there's deflock Fifi.

visitors can't see pics , please register or login

On top of the bookcase. I may have mentioned that I love flutters in their boxes <3 I would love more but I am picky and like the UK box art style better.

The adult Sea Ponies live by the sink, but right now my sink is a bit chaotic having just come back from London and so I don't have a fresh picture. Can't find the old one either at the moment. So just imagine a sea pony shaped photo somewhere here :)



...I did warn you :D I call the pony cupboard the tardis, because somehow I keep fitting ponies into it...

Okay bear with me because my collection is spread all over my room (my room is tiny, I can barely fit my bed and desk let alone cupboards ahaha). Also it's somewhat  disorganized until I find a better way to display some things >u<

Spoiler
visitors can't see pics , please register or login

The G1/G2/G3 shelf! The shelves are separated out by generation. G1s/G2s (currently no G2 ponies, just a singular sad accessory) are on the first two shelves, G3s on the next two, and accessories/fakies on the very bottom. The top of the bookshelf is where I currently store all my plushies but as you can see, it's getting a bit crowded up there. I think I might have to store some of my other collectables in order to make space for the plushie invasion that's slowly been happening over the last few months. I should also note that my sister's ponies are mixed in with my herd so not all of them are mine, hehe!

My G4s currently reside on the shelf unit over my desk, and three crates hung on the wall next to my desk (ignore my katana, which is peeking out from another shelf. Oops!). Sorry for the terrible picture quality!

And finally, some of my other toys/fakies/LPS are on this random cute shelf thingy next to my desk.
