Pony Corral / Re: G1 Questions for my daughter
« on: August 08, 2013, 05:12:25 AM »

8) Now, I may be off-base with this one, but depending on how carefully she takes care of her toys, I would recommend a sea pony, flutter pony, or winger pony. A winger pony, IMO, would be ideal, because there's just something so magical about a pony with butterfly/fairy wings!! (I think Little Flitter is generally the cheapest!) But if you think she might completely thrash the pony (she's only 2!), then a flutter pony (sans wings) or a sea pony might hold up to childhood abuses better. ;) (Sea Winkle is one of the most common sea ponies imo, and a good flutter pony would be Rosedust maybe?) Just a cool, unusual-shaped pony to help round out her collection!

I hope that helps! It's just my opinion of course, haha, but hopefully this will help inspire you! :heart: Best of luck!

Thank you so much! Honestly my daughter is amazing with her toys---well--as amazing as a 2 year old can be. We joke around saying she has toddler OCD. She loves playing with them---but god forbid if one of her toys go missing we don't hear the end of it. She itemized them into "sets" I notice. So right now she has two ponies and if she only has one---she frantically looks for the other because she knows she has two.

The reason I wasn't going the G3 route is not so much of the magnet issue, but more because she started watching the old cartoon that I have on DVD--so I figured these ponies would be more familiar to her.

Pony Corral / G1 Questions for my daughter
« on: August 07, 2013, 07:44:48 PM »
I used to collect G1 ponies about 8 years ago or so, but I sold off all of my collection--I kept two. Satin n' Lace and Clipper. My 2 year old daughter discovered them and loved playing with "ponies"--she also found my old episodes on DVD.

I am looking to buy a few of G1's off of ebay for her--not many--maybe 6-8. I am looking for probably one or two from each set (so soft, twinkle eyed, newborn, sea ponies) However because she is 2, and really doesn't care--I am looking for the most inexpensive one in the group.

Any suggestions on which classic ponies would be fun to start with. If you had only 6-8 ponies to give to a toddler/young child--which one would they be?

My brother was liked that. I remember one incident where he would eat marina sauce just fine--but would refuse to eat it if someone called it "tomato sauce." He order chicken fingers in a restaurant with a side of marina sauce, and when the waitress brought it to him---she said "tomato sauce." He wouldn't touch his dinner that night. I think he hated anything with the word "tomato" in it because he watched "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" way too many times.

I remember my friend in college brought me some back from Germany. I loved them :) I wish I could get them in the US, but I can't :(

Introductions / Hi everyone!
« on: February 11, 2012, 04:51:55 PM »
I am (sort of!) new here. My last PM was in 2008!


So I figured I would reintroduce myself. I am from NJ and loved MLP's as a kid---and actually had a fairly nice collection, however I started to lose interest and ending up selling all of them. However, I have been making frequent trips down the toy aisle again--only this time for my baby daughter! Although she is only 9 months old, and won't be interested in them for a long time--but I can dream!
