The pony bug bit me again so I am making a new wish list. I am casually searching and will buy depending on price and how much I've already spent on the herd that month! I look for decent condition, but doesn't have to be perfect. I like doing some minor restoration. Prefer to buy more than one pony at a time to save on shipping when possible.
Current Priority: Starglow, Basic Fun Twilight and Moondancer, Pillow Talk
Other Wants:
1. Starglow - Grail pony. Wanted her so bad as a kid! 2. Happyglow 3. Baby Leaper - Other grail pony. Only one missing from my collection! 4. Pillow Talk 5. Pina Colada 6. Basic Fun Moondancer (with two-tone tail) 7. Basic Fun Twilight 8. Boysenberry Pie 9. Heartthrob (vintage) 10. Sea Breeze 11. Ribbon (DF fine) 12. Magic Star (DF fine) 13. Sweet Pop 14. Masquerade 15. Speedy 16. Wizzer 17. Fizzy 18. Rosedust 19. Peach Blossom 20. Locket 21. Bright Eyes 22. Quackers 23. Sugarberry 24. Cloudpuff 25. Winddrifter 26. Pink Dreams 27. Tex 28. Barnacle 29.

So, I figured I had ages to get this particular collection, but I misjudged and now Maud is no where to be found! Does anyone have an extra to sell this poor, sad collector?
Thanks!

I was in my local TRU and found some new things despite the holiday rush! I grabbed Slumber Party Twilight, but left FS Sunset Shimmer behind (I'll come back for you!!!!) Both found in Vancouver, BC. Twilight's new carriage set was also out! visitors can't see pics , please register or login

HathorCat and Inky are the best Thanks so much to those two! (And Inky's friend as well!) ******************************** I am in desperate, desperate need (#collectorproblems) of two Novi Stars that are unavailable here in North America, and they are currently on sale at Argos! The two are listed here (Mimi and Vera) and I would shower with affection and good collector karma (and a finder's fee if you want!) anyone who can get them and ship them to me in Canada. And thanks in advance to this wonderful, super helpful community of amazing people

Hello everyone! Imagine my surprise when I was walking through TRU and saw this! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginNo idea how much they are (that price tag is for giant Princess Twilight), but they are filtering into stores! Canadian TRUs are also stocking the EQ Zecora ($26.99), giant Rainbow Princess Twilight ($26.99), the POP Collection ($20-30), the Breezie packs, and Twilight's Crystal Castle. New things! So exciting (Now here's to waiting for another 30-40% off sale on EQ items because they are waaaaay too pricey).

Hello all! I lucked out last weekend and picked up some G1s at a retro toy fair. Most of them are for my personal collection, but the seller had a Baby Racer and baby sea pony float, and I know both of those items are sought after. Would I be able to get a price check on the two items? Neither are perfect, but I am sure they will find a good home with someone here on the boards! Baby RacerOverall, he's in great shape with a nice body and hair. However, he has a highlighter mark on one side of his body, some minor blush rubs, a symbol rub on his other side, and a small brown splotch just under that. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginSea Pony FloatI know very little about these items, but it seems to be in good shape. There are paint rubs on the orange parts. visitors can't see pics , please register or login

This weekend I attended a Retro Toy Fair, and while most of the selection was focused on toys targeted to boys, there were a few places to get ponies! And even luckier, not all of them were overpriced! I managed to grab two G3 ornaments that are super adorable! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginBut the big find of the day were the G1s! One of the sellers had a box of some of the most mangled looking ponies I've ever seen (cancer, marker, engrained dirt, hair cuts, bite marks, pen make-up... you name the damage, it was there!). I grabbed who I thought I could salvage, but even they were pretty gross. Here's a group shot! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginPretty sure Baby Topper isn't supposed to be that shade... visitors can't see pics , please register or loginEww... poor Baby Racer looks like he's had a tough life! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginNo!

Say it ain't so! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginPoor Tabby is a finger painting victim! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginFortunately, with the help of a lot of soap, a magic eraser, and a long time in the sink, these ponies are feeling better!

Sugar was helping me track down a Lalaloopsy seahorse, and along the way, her help turned into a very sweet and appreciated RAOPK! I got a box yesterday filled with all sorts of cute and wonderful pony things! Thank you so so much, Sugar! After a pretty frustrating January, this was a great way to start February! visitors can't see pics , please register or login

As I wait through the lull of new G4 stuff, I may have been bitten by the Lalaloopsy pony bug! The line is pretty readily available in Canada, but I'm stuck on a couple items: the 2013 Target Christmas mini-pony exclusives, and the Walmart exclusive seahorses (see photos below of the ones that I am looking for). If anyone has these items for around retail, and would be willing to ship deboxed to Canada, I'd be interested in chatting! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or login

I know I'm late to this game, but I'm just stumbled onto the Lalaloopsy ponies, and I think I might be hooked! Look how adorable these little toys are! (Also, for Canadians, I found this wave for about 3.50$ at Target since they are on clearance right now!). visitors can't see pics , please register or loginThese were the first wave, but there are other waves, sea ponies, mini-ponies, and lots of other interesting things as well! (Check out some of the current and upcoming releases here!: http://lalaloopsyland.wikia.com/wiki/Lalaloopsy_Ponies) Who else collects these ponies, and do you have photos of your collections? To our American friends, are you still seeing the sea ponies at Walmart? I'd like to get at least one, but they've been out of Canada for ages. I'm also interested in the Target Mini-Pony Christmas exclusives and am curious as to whether they are still around as well.

I promised to restore my cousin's G1 Bowtie, and she's missing her tail! Does anyone have an extra (either original or new hair)? Will be happy to compensate!

My partner was hunting around for some other $2 deals and he stumbled across Pinkie and Rainbow! They were only 6.75$ and I haven't heard of them being spotted anywhere else in Canada yet. Hopefully they'll have a broader release soon!

I found her tonight! She's so adorable (though her second outfit is a bit questionable...)
Quick edit: Her only downsides are that she has less hair than Fluttershy and Rainbow, and it is only one tone, and her seems to have fewer accessories (a hair band, but no earrings or bracelets).

I've been having the worst luck with buying these past few months. Arena folk are wonderful, but I branched out to some new forums for different items and I sorely wish that the same selling/buying etiquette applied everywhere... In any case, most of my problems have been sorted out save for one that I am rather torn over. I bought an item from a seller that I have dealt with before. My first purchase with her went wonderfully and everything shipped super quick. My second, on the other hand, has not been so pleasant. I bought from her at the end of September and still have not received my items. I sent her multiple messages on the forum and to her different email addresses in order to see what was going on once we reached the point where it was taking far too long to ship to Canada. All of these were ignored until today, exactly a month after I sent funds through Paypal. She apologized profusely for taking so long and said that she had been dealing with some personal issues. She promised to refund the shipping charge on my order, and that she had sent things out yesterday. My problem is that my Paypal claim day is rapidly approaching, and it is entirely possible that my package may not get here in the time left being that I predict shipping is going to be a bit delayed with the recent frankenstorm. She was supposed to send a photo of the customs numbers (package is not being tracked), but it was not attached. Should I open a claim if the package doesn't get here before 45 days or does this make me a jerk of a buyer? Thanks for the advice
