Howdy!!
« on: March 07, 2021, 06:23:30 PM »
Hey guys, thanks for approving me!

I’m 22 and I loved my little pony from near the beginning of g3 to early g4. Basically my childhood until a couple years too old for a teen to still be playing with toys. Near the end of the time I “grew out,” I would look at mlptp and mlparena, and buy/sell on eBay. I hope I don’t get banned if I say this, but I made an account on here in like 2010 and said my age in my introduction post and got banned instantly. So I did what any rational person would do and made an account on mlptp with a fake age lol. This was back in the day when everyone used to have those sweet click-to-hatch dragons in their signatures. I didn’t have much to say on the forums but I liked seeing what the cool adult collectors got up to, and dreamed about having a pony room when I grew up. I would stare at the hair samples on dollyhair.com and wish I could customize my bait ponies. Despite all of this, I did eventually lose interest in ponies when I was maybe about 14.

I sold all of my g4 ponies around the time I stopped liking mlp and I left all of my childhood g3 ponies in the basement at my dad’s house when I moved out. Well, a few weeks ago I thought about going to pick them up because I know I’m supposed to get rid of the stuff I left there. I had always loved my ponies, they were really the only toys that I kept. Sadly, my playsets got sent to goodwill.  Anyways, hadn’t seen them or played with them since I was about 13. I took them home to check them out and now I remember how much I love them.

Shortly after I took them home, I started looking for more to buy because I immediately got back into the spirit. First, I found 14 ponies (some of which I had always wanted) in the $1 bin at an antique market. Most recently, I bought a big lot on Facebook marketplace of 30 g3 ponies, a crystal rainbow castle, and the butterfly island roller coaster. I have it all set up and I’m stoked. Now I’m back and I want to get all the ponies I always wanted growing up.

I am working on my G3 collection and love all of the butterfly island ponies! I am hoping to trade/buy with some of you to complete my wish list. That’s where you will probably see me the most! Anyone else notice that g3s body material started out soft and got hard around the time when they started having turning heads? I like the earlier soft ones the best... the SUPER pearly ones. Well, and the matte ones too. Early g3 is my jam.  See you around!
