Seriously. I haven't opened any ponies since August. I've got to work to do.

Also both the Favorites Pack and white Celestia are on sale at TRU. The Favorites is $30, as has been reported, and white Celestia is $18.

Very nice lot you have there Doctor :) I want that big Shining Armour, he looks so cute, and whats not to love about boy ponies?

If you didn't want to do them all in one go, I would open one here & there as a treat, or after a cruddy day or something ;) opening new ponies always makes me smile on a bad day lol.

Some very nice ponies you have there!  Are you sure you really want to take them out of their boxes?

Fo' sho'! A lot of my fun comes from styling (http://doctormowinckel.com/pictures/mlp/lightbox/FS_rarity_necklace.jpg) pony (http://doctormowinckel.com/pictures/mlp/lightbox/lulu_luck_.png) hair (http://doctormowinckel.com/pictures/mlp/lightbox/flitterheart.jpg), however the Junko is going to stay in the box. I think. I'm really torn on that.

Boxes are all very good and well if you have the room for it, but the more ponies you get the more of a hassle it is to have one box taking up the space of 4-5 ponies.  Ya know?   Also I dislike things that I can't touch.  You can't get all handsy with a pony's hair if she's stuck in a box.

I'm the same way.  I'm a confirmed deboxer, but I'm so far behind on deboxing my G4s I don't know where to start.

Doctor, that is pretty much what my basement looks like right now!  I stash my kids Christmas gifts down there.

I am all for opening G4 ponies too.  I just love that new pony smell:).  Not to mention the sheer joy of brushing pony hair.  When it comes to hair styling, you're one of the best around:)

I really love feel-free adults like you. You let your child-side come back and allow yourself to freely brush doll hair! I absolutely love it. My mother does think me brushing doll hair is childish. Ahh well being an adult is too boring! I get the  "When will she EVER grow up?" quote everyday. Also I debox all of my ponies. The only ponies I won't debox is if they're MOC.

Oh, Spike! My mother, who turns 75 this year, loves dolls. She loves getting cruddy dolls and fixing them up, so she spends HOURS combing doll hair. My grandmother, as she got older and stopped caring at all what anyone else thought, loved dolls and toys. She slept with them! It was so cute!

So if your mom gives you too much "adulting," remind her that you get to pick her nursing home.

And Doctor, I'm drooling on your collection! I don't debox the new ponies I get, because I keep finding opened ones at yard sales. I can always change my mind and debox them later, but for now they look so pretty!

Hehe I giggled at the nursing home bit! I sure will! I wish my mother acted more carefree and loved dolls as much as I do. She has about 3 dolls from her childhood and that's it. They are just stored in her cupboard. She used to collect stamps (How boring!) She should just sell the collection as she hasn't had anything to do with them for years and years. But yeah I love the awesome feel of brushing doll hair!

So true with G4 - you may want to have the blood bank on speed dial there is a lot of potential injury and bloodloss possible opening 1 G4 let alone a gaggle of them :P

Aww thanks. That's one of the better compliments I've gotten this year.
