Ooh it looks like they have really nice hair. How satisfying to finally get the last one!

You should be able to get Moondance for much less than that - I've had three or so of her go through my hands that I sold for under $25 as I recall although with no accessories and in varying conditions.


That is good to hear!! I'd pay $30 in a heartbeat and I don't care about her accessories... I will have to keep an eye out. I suppose I have only seen them MIB and then the asking price is extreme. Ah Breyer.... I honestly try not to look. There are way too many stunning models which are too far out of my price range  :lol:

I have been thinking about a horse that I used to LOVE:
http://www.darah.com/collection/jewelriders/toyguide.asp
Moondance from Princess Guinevere and the Jewel Riders! I think I got it at a garage sale, I never had any of the accessories. I remember getting some of the dolls new, and I definitely took this horse to show-and-tell in preschool. Unfortunately, it went missing somehow and I would really like to replace it.... but it seems to sell for ~$200 on ebay  :cry:
I had the deluxe princess Guinevere and deluxe Tamara as well- I still have the cat! Wish I had kept those as they seem to sell for quite a lot these days as well  :biggrin:

I don't think I ever saw them second hand either.... well I fully expect to be ordering some of the microminis online/getting my parents to send them to me. I can't resist the nostalgia or the pretty light purple packaging. I will certainly keep an eye out anyway! :biggrin:

For Sale - For Auction / Re: Are there people who are collecting G2s ?

For G2 I am really only interested in a few of the ones that were out in the US when I was a kid, but I know there are other people who definitely collect them! I'd love to see a picture of your collection, it sounds like it's pretty impressive  ;)

Oh I had SO many of those as a kid, I especially loved the small ones... some of them had such pretty moulds. Oh no, now I'm regretting losing them/giving them away  :cry: The new ones really do look like the old ones! I have not seen them anywhere but I doubt I would, it seems like nothing shows up here. I may have to look for them when I go back to the US next year, as I could definitely do with a package of the super tiny ones- the foals look like the same moulds! I also remember the "feed n' nuzzle" set... I'm definitely excited and never would have thought to look this brand up, so thanks  ^.^

Introductions / Hej!

I'm an American living in Sweden, and yes I did lug my toy collection across the atlantic  :biggrin:

I'm a 90's kid but since most all of my stuff was hand-me-downs or found at yard sales, I grew up with 80's toys! When I was little I generally only bought garage sale ponies if they were in decent condition and I cringe now thinking about what I probably missed! I went through a phase where I just bought any G1 or G3 ponies I could get my hands on, and now that I am going through all my things (kon mari, anyone?) it seems like the time to say goodbye to some and start looking for the ones I really want. I am an adult with a salaried job these days after all. Time to start spending my money in the right places  :P

I also loved breyer horses, polly pocket, fairy winkles, starcastles, and littlest pet shop, though I don't collect those any longer. There is just something special about ponies that keeps me coming back  :)
