Very cute article. Well written!!

I know the feeling. I had to hide my collection in boxes for so long, until i met my current boyfriend.
As he's a brony, he even helps me hunt for them (and to make the customs, he sometimes even reroot them!!)

Now they are proudly displayed in glass cabinets in the living room, and i buy some Muffins and Luna toys for him as well (his fave characters) :)
Open for Customs Commissions :)

MOC Surprise and MIB baby Surprise

Very well written and encouraging article. It's wonderful to see ponies viewed in a positive light instead of some of the more negative articles you tend to see everywhere.

Thank you, everyone! Yes, LadyMoonDancer, it was a Pony Project piece. There is a line of art toys called "Star Bronies" made by an artist called Sucklord. I noticed the diorama on the back of those figurine's packaging, so I contacted the artist directly and bought the original piece from him :)  so if you want astronaut ponies, you can buy Star Brony figures! They are really cool!

I have always admired that piece-  how awesome you were able to collect it!

Where did you get your pony dress??  It's fabulous, as are you and your husband and your article and your collection.  :good:

Your conversation with your husband sounds exactly like one I could have had with my husband, except mine already knew I had a pony collection from when I was a girl.  It was boxed up and in a closet, but I still had it.  When I got it out last year and started cleaning up some of them, he was very supportive and quite willingly drove me (and our children) an hour away to buy a large lot to add to it.  I felt guilty about spending money on plastic toys but sold a pony (a pony) for more than twice what I'd paid for the lot.   When he caught me considering another lot and wondering whether I could sell some of the ponies to make up the money, he told me to collect because I like the ponies and not think about getting any money out of them.  He likes me to be able to enjoy something (which I actually have a hard time doing with anything), and he's more than willing to support me however he can.  Aren't we fortunate to have such great guys??   :lovey:

Oh, that is a beautifully written piece! It's so professional, so perfect. It draws the readers in as they listen to a lovely true story, punctuated with the gorgeous pictures of your amazing collection and you! And your husband sounds awesome. :) Congratulations on finally being able to publish a piece for Narratively!

Also, wow, I am also impressed by the scene with the astronaut Ponies. At first I was like, "Ohmygosh, why is there a headless Pony on display?!" And then I realized it was a sculpture so old it was falling apart with the head on the ground, and the astronaut Ponies were looking at it. Very intriguing!

What a great article.  I got my love of ponies from my daughter who is an avid collector.  And like you, her husband supports her collecting and now , so does mine! :)
