Title: Hi all!
Post by: SparkleSparkle on December 27, 2016, 03:14:04 PM
Hello there! My name is Amy, I'm 27 and live in the U.K. I have many fond memories as a child playing with the 1st generation ponies and they remain firm favourites today. I wish I still owned my originals but like many people I gave them away when I was encouraged to "grow up" and stop playing with toys. :cry:

I suppose I am starting a collection based purely on nostalgia and a massive love of pastel, colourful, cute things. So far I am focusing on the baby ponies because they're simply adorable and I feel a bit overwhelmed by the sheer amount of generation 1 ponies to collect. Plus they take up less space!

Hopefully this is the perfect place to discover more about this hobby and chat with similar minded people. Thank you for reading this far if you got to the end! Hehe.

Welcome to the Arena :lovey:

Oh the cry of the giving away ponies and growing up speech we received :(  One way to look at this now is that you get to relive the collecting experiences as an adult and no one can tell you to give your ponies away :silly:

I hope you have so much fun collecting the babies and may the pony luck be with you always :)

Welcome to the Arena, SparkleSparkle!

I see a lot of people driven back into toy collecting because they had to give up their toys before they were ready. It's very sad, but nothing can stop you from getting them back! You'll have a lot to talk about and possibly find some babies to buy here. Enjoy the forums!

Hello there! It's sad when you have to give up ponies when you're  not ready to. Good luck growing your nostalgia collection my friend! If you want to find ponies, check out the sales thread! (It's great there!)
