Your 2022 collection recap!

[Carrehz]

Last year's thread

Had to make this thread again What happened with your pony collection in 2022? Did you add any, downsize... get any grails? Any ponies that got away from you? Let us know!

Here's who joined my herd this year:
Retro Rainbow Applejack
Retro Rainbow Rainbow Dash (FINALLY managed to get my hands on these two! The last two I needed from the set, naturally they were two of my most-wanted! Still don't know what gen to consider this set )
Tattle Tales G5 book set - Izzy, Pipp, Sunny, Zipp - and then they re-released the figures as a Busy Book, so now I have extras. x_x Still need to figure out what to do with the doubles.
HQG1C Lil' Thunder (+ Puppy Love plushie )
Funko Pocket POP Cotton Candy keyring
Egmont Fluttershy figure (2022 ver)
G4.5 Unicorn Party Celebration set: Ditzy, Rarity, Cadance, Fluttershy, Starlight, Applejack, Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie, Rainbow Dash, Mrs Dazzle Cake
HQG1C Moonshimmer (Chartreuse hair version)
Egmont Princess Pipp figure
Sprinkle Medley Halloween blind bag (Wave 18)
Takara-Tomy buildable Pinkie Pie
Takara-Tomy buildable Rainbow Dash (Two more set completers! So great to get some more loose ends.)
Basic Fun repro Heart Throb
Micro Toy Box Butterscotch, Blue Belle, Firefly (I already had these - I picked up extras so I could have a set "deboxed")
Egmont Izzy figure
FF Cotton Candy
Egmont Zipp figure
Phidal G5 Busy Book: Sunny, Izzy, Zipp, Hitch, Pipp, Argyle, Phyllis (), Sprout, Alphabittle, Queen Haven. I love these stupid little toys I particularly love how this set has THREE boys!!!
G4 reboot Styling Rainbow Dash
Egmont Hitch figure
Typo ornaments: Firefly, Applejack, Glory, Starshine
G4 Weebles: Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy - I couldn't resist these They're so goofy looking! They make me laugh.
Typo ornament - Blue Belle

So counting doubles, that's 52 additions to my herd! (53 if you count the plushie) Wow, more than I realized. Though granted only 7 of those are brushables.. mostly stuck to collecting "merch" this year. But still, dang.

I'm amused that my last pony of 2022 ended up being a Blue Belle, just like last year :p

How about you? :3

shipping prices pretty much stagnated any collecting I did, or ponies I was able to sell. 
When it costs twice as much as the pony is worth to ship it, you just can't participate.

i did find two boxes of MLP and related merch that I forgot I even had. 

husband helped me pack up the kid's toys and put them in storage.... including my childhood ponies.  she doesn't care, i don't like having to keep constant dust off them, so off they go.

[BlackCurtains]

I don't know if I can remember, it wasn't a lot, but my memory is bad

I got a huge box of bait ponies for free
I was gifted a custom
Got another custom from a swap

I bought the Retro Applejack

Got some pony stickers

Umm... I think that's it. I'm not actively buying anything but I want the Applejack Hallmark ornament. Guess that will be my first pony goal of 2023.

I bought my first pony to add to my childhood collection! A G2 clever clover.
I really like the monochrome and purple ponies and wanted to have one of the "boy" ponies even though g2 didn't have a separate mould for them like G1.

I bought a big bundle of G4s and some more G2s that have not arrived yet.
A celestia TY that I found in a shop on a family day out. (She has the eyes that both face to the side, I love how silly she looks from the front! )

Next year I don't plan on buying as many ponies. When I do buy more I'd like to buy replacements for my childhood G1s that I no longer have. And to complete my set of G2 princess ponies!

You're lucky to have so many G5s! The small book figures are very sweet.

I don't have a full list but i did rebuild some of my collection and add some new ones. I finally got Brazilian Heart Throb and Brazilian Sugarberry. I'm not sure if i'll buy more this year though. but every time i say i'm done collecting i end up buying more

[Ponybookworm]

I finished my Halloween G3s, got some rare G2s, increased my Butterscotch collection, bumffed up the comic collections, got a couple of Argies & a much-wanted Euro baby, & added a few HQG1Cs. A slow, but good year all-in-all

[Beldarna]

I think I bought two ponies last year to add to my collection. My Little Prime in april to celebrate that I got a new job and Highflier in late summer, early autumn. I also found a couple of ponies in the wild that are still lying on the floor in my pony room.

[Queen Sophie]

I definitely can’t remember them all but my most proud possession is my Takara pony Milky! I saved up for her with my birthday and Christmas money and got lucky when I found her!

This is why I'm mostly just collecting whatever I can find in shops these days - international shipping prices are horrible

omg Sophie, congrats!!  ;o;

[Gator]

I can’t remember!  They years blur together!  I know I got Blue Bonnett custom, I finished my baby School Ponies.  I got Jazzy and Hip Hop roller skating ponies. I got one of the pony club newborns.  I’m sure there’s others but I forget.  I got an Argie Moonstone, but can’t remember if that was this year or last year.  I’m gettin old.
And I added Rep the lizard man to my collection too!

[Bekuno]

It was all newer stuff for me... I try to thrift G1 - G3 ponies to save on my wallet, but that might change this year LOL

From Christmas alone I got:
- G4 Trade paperbacks: Holiday Memories & Magic of Cybertron
- G1 basic fun repro Tootsie
- G5 amazon exclusive Royal Gala collection (that big set with a bunch of one-off characters)

Outside of Christmas I picked up:
- G4 book Goodnight Baby Flurry Heart
- G5 alicorn Sunny / Twilight Sparkle set
- G5 Jazz Hooves
- G3 Garden Wishes
- G5 comic issue 1 & 2
- A few more G4 comic issues


Eek! guess it's not much after all...  I'm going to be investing in a billy bookcase and risers soon to move my collection out of the lawyer cabinet that they are starting to outgrow a bit,

[Cbaird]

My herd has increased exponentially since my husband reunited my with my MLP toys back in May. 
I already had Peachy and was able to acquire a Pretty Parlor for her.
The G1 I have added: Majesty, Sparkler, Firefly, Minty and most recent, Surprise.

Not collecting too much more at the moment.

But I was stoked to add a G2 pre-production pony to my collection

My collection at the end of 2022 actually expanded. I got the free pony box from someone on here, and some members know of the new pony sets I got in the summer.

[Carrehz]

I know I got Blue Bonnett custom

Ooh, I'm jealous - she's so pretty <3
