I don't like armies, I do like collecting one of every type of variant, but I don't like more than one type of variant.

I'm not real big on armies. I've sold a lot of my doubles to reduce my herd a bit. But I do have several doubles of my favorite ponies that I love and am keeping (such as Fizzy and Baby Glory) I have a small accidental army of Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy though! :lol: And I have lot of different G3 Pinkie Pie's. I like getting variants of the same pony :)

I have lots of mane 6 extras, and I have 3 Sweetie Belles. If it's an exact duplicate of another pony I have, then I can use one as bait. I don't mind variants though.

My daughter really likes Baby Firefly. She kept kidnapping the minty one so I bought 2 more from an arena member and then I won one in a lot and then I got a pearly Baby Firefly ....So now we have an army of Baby Firefly! ^.^

I don't mind having "twins" and I have doubles of a few ponies at the moment - Baby Glory, Baby Crumpet and a couple of sets of NBT twins.  But I have no interest in a full-blown army, though I must admit they do look cool.  :)

I love doubles! ^_^ I have a baity boy army right now, but my biggest reason I have so many doubles is - getting upgrades then being unable to sell the old one! :yikes:

I love armies but don't have one yet.. I can't decide who exactly I want an army of!

I admit that it irks me a bit when I see armies of people who have 30 of a pony (g1) that I am dying to get and can't find. If it's a pony that's really common like Firefly I don't care as much. I'm sure it's just pure jealousy on my part but it bugs me.  :shakefist:

If it is a hard to find pony and said person has a lot of them, I feel they deserve them cause they worked hard to get each and every pony!

I have a MIB/MOC/MIP Cheerilee 'army', but although a few of them are technically the same pony in the same pose the boxes make them different.

With my G1 collection, I don't intentionally get doubles although it sometimes happens by accident. Unless the pony is different I will get rid of the extra(s). Also, I have 2 boxed G1 ponies in my collection and I also have loose versions of them, so I guess they are sort of mini armies! :P

Agreed. I'm new to collecting, but I have repeats, and it's taking some effort and running around to get them.  If someone is willing to shell out the time to stalk it or money to get it or dedication they deserve their pony.

Hehe, I'm getting one of each of the ponies I just want to collect, but have an army of wingers and flutters in the making. I don't have a specific one really that is the focus of my army.  I really only have a minty one of each. ^.^ The rest I'm buying in lots or damaged to repair. Like I bought a Starry wings the other day with missing wings and bad hair that I'm going to replace. I buy flutters without their wings since I feel the babies need a home.  I have a small tub of flutters I'm working to either clean up, re hair or make wings for.

@_@ I love my army of ponies and giving them a home, especially since other than my minty ones the majority of the others have flaws. Like I said though there is not really a specific one of those that I collect singly just ones that catch my eye at the time or need some love. ^.^

I have a Megan & Sundance army [and a small Baby Fifi army] but those are the only ponies I keep multiples off...everyone else is pretty much a single pony guy or gal!

I love seeing peoples armies and learning about why they particularly love that one pony!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

I dont mind armies, I actually want a moondancer army.
But if I see someone who have an army made up of rare ponies I do get a tad annoyed as I would feel like he or she is hogging them. To share is to care!^^

I only keep twins or more under certain circumstances. Like if I get a better condition pony of one I already have and the flaws the one I already have has is something that has always "bugged" me I may keep the new one but I would never part with my original one if it's enrolled in my ponyworld. Twins/triplets always get other names and they are different characters to me. Same goes for different versions of the same pony, e.g. Rainbow Dash. I try not to get more than one version of a pony unless they are quite different from each other, but sometimes it may happen anyway.

No armies for me. I don't want doubles in my herd. It hasn't really been a problem except for G4. I just can't decide which Fluttershy I want (possibly Spring). I'm really trying to stick to no doubles but the G4 ponies are still being released so I may not be able to stick with that if some pretty new release catches my eye.
