First pony love

[Marlin]

So, I thought of a fun idea for a thread (well, let's hope so!).


If you still have them, show a photo of your FIRST childhood pony! Let's see 'em, whether they are pristine, or battered and bruised and well loved! Tell us a little about them, too!


Here's mine - Bowtie    I got her I think when I was about 5 years old? I remember taking her to school... on holidays... she went everywhere!


My name is still on the bottom of her hoof, her hair has frizzed and her bows are no longer pink... And she is my most precious pony    In fact, whereas all my other ponies hang out in their cabinet, Bowtie gets pride of place right here next to the computer. I'll never let her go

Now, let's see yours!

My first pony was a BBE Baby Cuddles and Buggy, from what I remember - she was lost to the Great Garage Sale, so alas I have no picture to offer you.
 
I still remember unboxing her though, and setting her up behind the couch, where i had retreated with my pony prize in hand for assembly!  The handle baffled me for the longest time, I used to unsnap it to get the ratchet back up instead of using the tab at the front, silly me.  Not sure how old I was, probably about four or less - I know I had a bunch of ponies and the Lullabye Nursery in kindergarden.

I don't have my childhood pony anymore..
She was a G2 Sky Skimmer and I also remember a G1. No idea what it was, but she was pink. That's all I remember, sadly.
I'm so jealous of you and everyone else who still has their childhood ponies.

My Sundance!  She is/was so much like your Bowtie! 

I got her from a thrift store when I was a child.. I was born in 1989 so yeah.

This is her:

Sometimes I want to put her hair in the front how I used to have it, so I can recognize her LOL!

She used to take baths with me..  (no judge!)
I am so glad that I still have her.  ^^

Thanks for the great thread idea!

My first pony was Medley.  Unfortunatly I lost her by accidently leaving her on a McDonald's playground.  I have one picture of her.

My first pony was a Marx Thunderbolt I think, MLP did not exist.  LOL  Thoth's it turns out was two G2's from her favorite Aunt but the ones that really got it rolling was the two super long hairs with bonus babies.

I got four ponies at once!

 Bow Tie, Applejack, Peachy and Cotton Candy!

 I can't dig them out now, sadly.

Nap time was the best with her, I loved nibbling on her eyes and drifting to sleep.
I was born in 91 and basically missed the first gen.
I vaguely remember seeing the G2's at toys R us.

I this thread. 

My first pony was Wind Whistler.  I got her for Christmas when I was four and I still remember opening her and playing with her.  I especially liked her fuzziness.  I also remember losing her at the mall within the same year.  If anybody cares, it was upstairs in the mall in front of a JC Penney's.  The mall is still here as is the JC Penney's.  The pony, sadly, is not.   

I have a lot of my childhood toys, still - my CPK, my Rainbow Brite, my Care Bear, etc - but sadly I don't have her any more.

My first pony was a whole set: the Sweet Celebrations family when I was really little^^

Mine was Starshine   I got her when I was about 5 (oh crikey I'm showing my age!).  As a reault I LOVE the rainbow girls    Sadly I don't have my original Starshine.

Mine was Peachy and the Parlor, for Christmas when I was 6.  I've still got all my childhood ponies and took great care of all of them.  Peachy actually fared the worst; somehow she got a very short mark from a black felt-tipped pen near her NDS symbol, but that's it; otherwise she's NM.  I've still got the Parlor with all the accessories except some of the name tags; I didn't know what they were for; guess I didn't notice the platform slots.  And one strap broke on the bridle but it can still be used.  Sorry, no pic; she's in storage back at my parents' house until I can get a house of my own.  Looking forward to getting the other half of my collection back someday.

Awww! I'm loving these photos (such dear, clearly loved and beautiful ponies! {I love ponies with a bit of history to them!}) and adoring these stories - though some are so sad!!


Those first ponies of ours can create such fond and lasting memories - keep the piccies and stories coming!
