It took me a decade, but my set is complete!
« on: April 13, 2012, 09:36:45 PM »
I started collecting in the late 90s, when I found out that some of my ponies in my childhood herd had family members that I never knew existed (firefly had a baby, and lofty had a mom, and they had been separated  :cry: , lol).  I set out to reunite my pony families, and once I found out about international releases, it was all down hill.  I'm 3 ponies away from having all the US mom and baby sets, but I did manage to complete one set that I've been working on for a decade now.  It was my own personal grail set, but I didn't know if I would ever get them all.  (sorry for the lousy pictures.  I never have a chance to take pics during the day with the baby about, so they are both poorly lit, indoor shots)






















Well, I finally got the last pieces of the puzzle  :lovey:

The super-adorable Non Beddy Bye Eye babies!  It's taken me forever to find baby lofty and gusty in such good condition (I'm pretty picky), and I'm still looking to upgrade baby Heartthrob.



Just for the eye candy, here's my group of international babies;

Wow, that is definitely a dream come true. *_* Congrats to you! What an astounding accomplishment, all those babies are making me drool, lol. I can't believe you have a NBBE Lofty, she is one of my ultimate grails!

Thanks guys!  and Thanks for the sticky  :blush:

Baby Lofty was my one and only grail for 10 years!!  I didn't know they made her either, until I saw her on ebay in 2001ish.  I fell in love, but I decided I shouldn't spend that much on a pony.  I would wait for her to come around again, and it took me over 10 years to find her again!  I justified her by the fact that she was less than $1 per day of my pregnancy (she was my reward for the nausea, backaches, sleepless night etc..).  I bought her for myself in the 8th month, and my husband didn't even complain (well, only a little  ;) ).

Baby Gusty was my last one.  Now I feel like I need to make some customs of the ones that were never made, like Shady and Sundance, so they aren't left out.
