Hi everypony! (Intro from UK pony fan G1-4)

[PinkKayte]

Hi everyone,

Hope you're all having a good day/evening   

I'm Kayte, a pony collector from England. I've loved ponies ever since I was little, but unfortunately, my original ones *disappeared* at my Mum and Dad's house, probably during a clear out! I started getting back into collecting with G3 and G3.5 ponies, but only on an occasional basis. Then, when I started watching 'Friendship is Magic', I started collecting G4s with a vengeance! At the moment, I'm focusing on collecting the Funko vinyl series  (vinyls, pop, and mystery minis), but I'd also love to build up my collection of other generation ponies .

In terms of of other general facts about me, I'm 25; I have pink hair; I'm quite political (leftie); and I'm a PhD candidate in French Studies.  My thesis aims to develop a comparative analysis of drag performance, which draws on French and Anglo American theory, literature, and performance culture/s. I'm a white, disabled, bisexual feminist, and I'm interested in 'social justice' activism.

It'd be great to make more pony loving friends, and I look forward to hearing about everyone's collections!

Loads of love,
Kayte

Hi, Kayte! Welcome to the arena!

I'm glad the newer generations have brought back your spark for collecting. I'm sure you'll be able to build up more now that you're here. That also sounds like quite an interesting thesis! Enjoy the forums!

Hullo and welcome!

Sadly, mums and their cleaning binges are quite often the natural enemy of Ponies. More than one of us has lost our Ponies to a charity bin. It's wonderful you're inspired to collect again!
