Ichibancon was last weekend in North Carolina!
Right before I left, literally after I came home from work to grab the remaining stuff to put in the car, a package arrived... with PONIES. Just in the nick of time, because I needed them for my panel!
Posey and Steamer were for my own collection. And Firefly and Baby Firefly to give away... (see below)
I held a pony panel on Friday night which went over pony history and some fun pony games were played. Pin the Tail on the Pony was sooo much fun. (The pony was :muffin: Pony) The winner got the pony which is printed on a huge printer and then glued on carefully to some foamcore. They also won a muffin! XD The biggest loser won a G 3.5 fakie from Dollar Tree. We did pony singalongs. Then I held a raffle for all kinds of prizes, like calendars, coloring sets, and ponies! :D Overall, it was a lot of fun and I can't wait to do it again.
Here's a few pictures:

Afterwards the pony cosplayers got together and took a picture!

I'm the Fluttershy to the right next to the tall human version of Spike with the green wig. (Yellow dress!) I really want to remake my fluttershy at some point since it's just broadcloth and my boning went everywhere despite wearing a corset underneath. But it was fun to wear! :D
Sunday was the Otaku Flea Market. It's basically where you sell all your old anime/manga etc merchandise that you no longer need or want. As I go around looking... what do I spy with my little eye?
MY PRETTY PONY!!!!!
I run over to the table immediately! Not only does she have that, but a box of G2s! I happily hand over the dough and walk out with an armfull of pony! >w<

Pretty pony dons a tophat, which I think is more awesome than a cowboy hat. ;D And all the ponies lined up, awaiting to be cleaned. I've been under the weather (con plauge) so I haven't had a chance to give them a full clean-up yet. There's a few duplicates, but I'll use them in future pony panels for giveaways! :D

I also bought two Tokidoki Unicorns! So cute! I want more of these!
Then from the artist alley, I bought this cute little Pegasus necklace, and a Fluttershy badge! The artist is Ryan from http://tastypeachstudios.com
And then yesterday, I received So Soft Wind Whistler in the mail! Here she and Posey are being smoozed by Steamer. :P

Thanks everyone!
The tokidokis are SO CUTE. *_* I'm going to have to keep nabbing them up at conventions while I can. XD Unfortunately, I don't go to many anymore, but I might have some friends pick some up for me. :B
I was also really suprised that someone had some old ponies. When I saw them, I was actually with one of the higher-up staff people (we were looking for plushies) and I was suprised that he didn't mention anything to the seller because they were only supposed to sell old/used anime/manga etc type merchandise. When I got away I came back and nabbed it all before anyone could say anything. XD
