Hi!
« on: July 19, 2012, 08:54:43 PM »
Hello all, I'm 31 and currently a self employed artist living in Canada.  I grew up with MLP so the G1s are my favorites, but unfortunately I sold all my childhood ponies at a garage sale when I was younger and don't have any left ;_;    They're rather hard to come by in my current city since it's mostly older folk too.   At the moment I only have G4's in my collection.  Two G1 ponies were my favorites as a kid but I have no hope of ever replacing them since one doesn't seem to actually exist.. They were mail order twin boy and girl baby ponies with blank rumps.  One blue with blue mane, and the other pink with pink mane... definitely not purple like ember.  So I don't know how that happened, maybe as a mixup ember, but I might make some sort of art to commemorate them instead since I can't get them out of my mind.

Anyway, like many FiM really brought me back into loving ponies again despite my age, it's such a cute enjoyable show, which in turn inspired me to rewatch the original series after so many years which I'm currently working through.  And it's been fun!  Looking forward to joining the rest of the forum, I'm pretty shy and don't like to talk about myself much so I  hope this intro is ok :P

Your childhood ponies sound interesting. I'm not sure I know who they are but hopefully some body else here might recognize them by your description.  I hope you enjoy the forums :frolic:

Thanks everyone! ^^  I won't even ask, I've actually been searching for them for years and had no luck, but I clearly remember waiting for them in the mail, and then they day they arrived, walking down to the postal boxes and finding them inside in a brown cardboard box, and my mom remembers them too and said I actually kept their box for a long time even though it was nothing special about it :P

I'll probably remake them as plushies at some point :)
