Quick question: I'm looking for some Breyer horses. Is it okay to add this to my first post or is there a specific place for non-MLP stuff one hopes to find?

The past days were fun and a bit like Christmas early. Four packages arrived, from the Netherlands, Germany, Finland and the US, and brought lots of ponys and stuff from my wish list, especially some cute BBE babies. And something strange happened tonight. I was ordering some stuff for the new house and a birthday present from Amazon and somehow ... I really don't know how it happened ...  a re-released Gusty jumped into my shopping cart and wanted to become my Christmas present. Isn't this scary? 

 

Apparently, even snails adopted a digital lifestyle during the pandemic. I received two e-mails today. Sent on November 9th, the other on Nov 12th. So, it's digital snail mail? Or did they first try to deliver it to the 80s, since it was about some G1 ponies I wanted to buy? My spam filter is usually reliable - Outlook had no problem with my other web.de accounts it is collecting.

If you try to send me an e-mail and wonder why I'm not answering - it's probably the snails. Sorry. 

Building a house is such a mess. Nothing works properly, a lot of information gets lost on the way and the money is flying right out the door ...  To be honest, the outlook of having my collection surround me when I work at some point, is the silver lining. It's getting me through the day at the moment. 

My Ponies are finally getting a place they deserve! We are moving to a new place where I will finally have my room and display my MLP collection and my Breyers. The horses and the display cases had to move to a storage room in the attic when we had the kids and I had to move my work space from a comfortable room to literally a laptop on my knees. 

The house is not completely done yet, but I'm sooo excited to share some pictures of my childhood ponies with people who can understand me.  It's also the designated guest room and new work space - I guess work meetings via Skype or Zoom will make me either VERY popular or have the guys with the giant butterfly nets pay me a visit. Maybe I should simply learn how to use a neutral background. 

I made an introduction years ago (http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,359851.0.html) and a new one recently (http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,400010.0.html), but this topic here will be the place to stay.

Pictures will follow asap, but right now, ponyland is packed away and waiting for the movers.

Feel free to comment, be excited with me or visit my "Wanted!" list (http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,359915.0.html).

Best regards,

Simone

The original Pony - I named her Blika after a pony in the book "Dick und Dalli und die Ponies" (which inspired the "Immenhof" movies, does anyone know them outside Germany?)

other stuff
the German "Ponymagazin" - from the first (1986) to the very last issue (1993)!
a complete Panini sticker book and one with some of the double found stickers
some goodies from several years as a member in the German "Pony-Mami-Club"
tons of merchandise
some tapes with MLP stories
the fabulous MLP movie - which my uncle had to tape for me back then because my parents did not have a VHS when it first aired on German TV - and what a drama that was!

Several Baby items
Re-releases Seashell and Bowtie (both from Danmark, for the old times' sake apparently  )

I've PMed you about an addition (found another pony I'd like to adopt) - if you could just check, I'll send the payment.

I missed the story, but I googled the horse. Boy, what is wrong with him? 

Hello there, I'm back! 

A lot has changed in the past years, my Ponys have been living in a little storage room in the attic, but all in neat displays, I just hadn't have the time to visit as often as I wanted to. But this is all in the past, I hope. Ponyland is packed up in moving boxes once again, but this time they will move to another house soon and will find their place in my guest/work space. 

I found my old thread, but it is closed and all pictures are gone, but I promise to provide you with new ones, once they are all set up neat and tidy.

This is still my collection: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,359851.msg1259829.html#msg1259829
I managed to update some things, found Pony Wear, Baby furniture and adopted a So Soft Shady and her BBE Baby plus I gave my daughter a beautiful Whizzer last year. So much for "I am not collecting". It's a trap.

I am looking forward to spend more time in here. See you soon,

Simone aka Glitzi86
