Incomplete collection woes xD
« on: April 13, 2014, 07:28:19 AM »
I am literally about five ponies away from completing my G4 collection, but each of those ponies is either ridiculously expensive or seemingly unavailable to buy anywhere! It's kind of stressing me out that I'm so close but so far. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? XD

Most of the ponies that I am still looking for are harder to find US-releases, mail order, or Euro-releases, so I feel your pain.   >_<

I've found additional ponies that I'd like to have after browsing posts on the Arena, but unfortunately most of the ones that have really caught my eye are Nirvanas!   :facepalm:

I am down to 4 accessory items to complete my collection; all of which are practically impossible to track down :P So yes I know that feeling unfortunately.

The only thing I would say is at least with G4 you should manage to find them - its just the price point that they become uncomfortable at :P Good luck tracking them down! And it will be so much more awesome when you finally own them due to the time and searching you have put into them!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

I get that way even with individual sets I am close to completing, so I can only imagine how antsy I'll get once a complete collection is so close in sight!

Which ones are you looking for?  It's always good to have other people keeping an eye open =)

I'm in the same boat with my G1s. I've cut my.wish list down a lot due to the expense so the ones I have left should be achievable buuut they are repeatedly slipping through my grabby hands :) I'd rather buy lower priced ponies to work on so its just a matter of patience :)

Glad I'm not the only one who gets frustrated xD For the record, I'm looking for Mrs Dazzle Cake, Twirly Treats, Sweetsong, Skywishes and Starbeam Twinkle (all G4). I've found all of these on eBay apart from Sweetsong who doesn't seem to exist, but they're all from America and I can't afford the price of the pony plus expensive postage AND import charges  :( I mean I could probably afford it if it was just one, but for that many ponies I just can't, because I'd end up spending more than 100 quid on just 4 ponies, and still be looking for sweetsong xD

I'm a few sets behind on my G4s so I know that feeling. I'm also missing Star Swirl, who's gotten really expensive.  >_<

AND my Funko collection is like, half complete. Glitters are so expensive. /sigh

shimmlight, try to make a post in the wanted section maybe stating that you're looking for these from an UK seller? I'm sure sooner or later one of the collectors will be trying to sell these :)

That said I know how you feel! I just need that one little pony for my G2's... and then only the variants and OOAK's/prototypes remain :lookround:
