I totally get this. I took pictures of everything before I sold a good portion of my collection and the only ponies left are my childhood ponies and the few rereleases I picked up. I was sad to see a lot of it go, but I was ready to part with most of it and I needed extra cash at the time. Lately I've debated on parting with everything else. Everything has been in storage for the better part of 7 years & when I last checked some if it's not aging well. There were other collections I've parted with over the years. I find I want to have less stuff in my house as I get older.

I am absolutely getting my hands on the celestial ponies and at least one plush! I'm so excited to see these! The mini's are kind of cool and I'd love to pick those up too. Can't wait!!

I had my share of hurricanes when I still lived in Florida. It's funny - people who've never experienced one all say "YAY hurricane party!!" But no one talks about the 2 weeks of no power that follow in a Florida summer... It was still an interesting experience.  When I still lived in Virginia, we had a couple of notable blizzards & I can remember that was pretty wild even though I was so young. And now in Texas I've seen a couple tornados and we had that crazy freeze a year or two ago & this summer was stupid hot. I've moved a lot and I feel like I'm making my rounds with experiences, haha.

I don't think I'll stop - but I did downsize considerably about five years ago. I had a family issue I needed extra funds for - and as much as it hurt - the collection had to go. I only held on to my childhood ponies. Though - I do love the Basic Fun ponies and some of the G1 merchandise I see here and there. I collect - just at a much slower pace and I did have a long hiatus at some point. MLP always brings me joy!

I always loved Peach Blossom for the Flutter Ponies. And I also think for So Soft's that Skippety Do and Twist were underrated!

80's Epcot was awesome! Recently I found a bunch of old family photos from Disney in the 80's & it was nice to have that trip down memory lane. I haven't been to Epcot in almost 10 years now, though I'd love to go back.

Many years ago I found a brown My Pretty Pony at a thrift shop for less than $5. I never have seen another in the wild since! She still winks and swishes her tail with the trigger under her chin. I think it's a cool piece of MLP history
