Not a G1 pony, but those full-sized Funko Queen Chrysalis prototypes looked like they probably would have been pretty rad. (Though Chrysalis is my favorite villain, so I might be a tiny bit biased...  ) visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Nightmare Moon, Muffin Pony, and Applejack are the only names that my mom and dad know.  To be fair, I have a lot and they all start to blend together after a while...

- The flocked ponies that we see are just them in their 'Summer' coats. When winter rolls around, they look like giant puff balls with hooves.
- There are no Crystal Unicorns because of Sombra um... 'banishing' them early on in his reign. Don't want a rebel group of magic users rising up against you if you're a tyrannical king, now, would you?
- Tempest Shadow becomes the first official member of Twilight's Royal Guard after the events of the MLP Movie.

If they do make flutter ponies, I pray to the pony gods that they don't use the original, brittle plastic for the wings, but instead use a thin FLEXIBLE plastic.
I love flutter ponies, but they're such a fail in terms of toy design. "Oops, you dropped it once, broken forever!"
Same. Part of me thinks they made them that brittle on purpose so when one (inevitably) breaks, you buy a new one to replace it.

I underestimated a G1 ponies' cuteness and appeal. Friendship is Magic introduced me to the franchise, and up until about two years ago I had exclusively hoarding collecting G4 ponies. I was on the fence about the other gens, and decided to buy a few G1s off eBay one day to see if I'd like them or not. Needless to say, they won me over pretty quickly.

I don't have any myself... but they always look like they know something that I don't and I love them for it.  What secrets do you hold, you mischevious horse?

You have some sought after pets there  It's hard to tell if you have the complete sets but there's a guide on the Kenner collector site that'll help. You can ask in their forum too for pricing help.

I second using this website! I found some Kenner LPS in one of my bag 'o' thrift toys and it really helped. I love the little lizard and his habitat you have.

I've always been fascinated by Pocket Ponies. It's cool seeing all these variations.
I wonder... what does a Pocket Ponies' symbol feel like to them? Does it hurt? 
I bet it tickles when it rains!
And maybe it gets super annoying when their 'pockets' fill up with rainwater? ' Ugh! I have to empty my pocket AGAIN!?'

Pullips are the gateway drug to BJDs in my opinion. I don't have pictures at the moment, but I have 3 anime Pullips (Rozen Maiden's Shinku, Black Butler's Sebastian, and Cyborg 009's Cyborg 003) and one Dal who is in desperate need of a makeover/restoration. I love the little setup Amy has! Is that little chair those ones meant for phones? I've seen some of those in the little Claires section of my local Toys 'R' Us (RIP). If mine is still open, I might have to pick a couple up for them!

My sister and I grew up on anime. I have some treasured memories of us going to the library to scour the shelves for new VHS tapes of our favorites or new ones that we've never heard of.
I don't watch it as much as I used to, but I still watch it from time to time. Most things in the idol or magical girl genres are my weakness.
Has anyone seen that Sanrio mini-series/anime? 'Aggurestuko' or something like that. I don't have Netflix right now, but from the clips I've seen, it looks hilarious.

Realistically? Probably something like 'Nervous Nelly'. I love the new Hippogriffs/Sea Ponies, though, and there are a million things that I want to do in life. I noticed that they tend to have names related to the sky or ocean... 'High Horizons', maybe? *Insert questionable substance joke here*

Thank you for the tips! I'll most certainly look into those options.

She's a Fancy Pants named Baby Starburst.
Thank you for the ID! I've never seen a baby pony with a printed on diaper before.

I found this little cutie while out thrifting recently. She could use some TLC (she's balding!), but she's still insanely cute. I'm still a newbie when it comes to G1... could anyone ID her for me? Any tips on restoring her would also be greatly appreciated.  visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or login
