Ponies in the wild!! And a G1 playset.

I didn't think I would ever find any! I found an ad for a garage sale that was supposedly selling a bunch of Star Wars legos, since my son is really into them right now. My husband had a slow work day and he agreed to go check it out with me. So we get there, and my twin girls were instantly drawn to a bin that was on the floor. My husband peers in and says, 'oh boy...you'd better show Mama what's in there!'

It was a TON of ponies. No G1s, but I was just so happy to see them, and for 50 cents apiece! It was mostly G3s, of which I'm not really looking for too many, as I have most of the ones I want, but I told my girls they could each pick one, and I picked out a few (okay, as many as I could carry without having a bag!) Sadly, I mostly grabbed white ponies because they will be useful for conducting dye experiments upon them...or upgrading ones in my collection that I might pillage to conduct dye experiments upon...but now in retrospect I wish I just bought the whole bin full; I could probably find homes for them! I'm tempted to go back tomorrow to see if they're still there.

Oh, and then they had a G1 nursery! I left it behind, because I already have 3 of them in varying conditions...if I knew for sure I could find a buyer for it I would have grabbed it, but I see them sit on Ebay for quite a while, so I figure people aren't really that into playsets. Still, it was cool.to see!

The Star Wars legos must have all sold when the sale first opened up.

So what do you think...did I get anyone good? I don't even know all these ponies' names...guess I'll have to look them.up.

Oh wow, great ponies! They look like they are all in lovely condition and would clean up really well. Luna is very pretty.
