Valuable Childhood Ponies in Your Collection?

[Alrak]

I have piggy snuzzle. And i thought she was a fakie until i joined the arena ;D

I grew up in argentina and borned in 1985, so you can imagine!
One of my first toys were 4 little ponies that my father bought me when I was 4: yellow peachy with orange hair, dark blue baby sparkler, shy pose wind whistler and baby sunnybunch.
During the years my grandmother also made me a little pony collection, she gave me sugarberries, felicidades, baby moondancer, confetti and baby gusty as gift. Last 3 to come were shy pose tuneful, lickety split and baby snippy . I didn't have any idea that argie ponies were so valuable until I decided to collect my little ponies a few years ago so I lost some of my  childhood originals (I only kept sugarberries, gusty, moondancer, confetti and snippy) but then I could recover them thanks to ebay and the arena 
I almost sell sugarberries years ago, a lady offered me $100 for her and I said, no way! It's a grandma's gift! now that I think about it, thank god I said no! lol

That is so awesome! I'm drooling over your yellow w/ orange hair Peachy/Snuzzle!

He thanks sweetie! I had luck being born here lol. On the 80's you could only find argie ponies around there, I clearly remember seeing the toyshops full of arco iris ponies and playsets. A few years later, around 90's when top toys closed Hong Kong ponies started get the old argie's space

Cool thread! 

I have a Baby Princess Sparkle and buggy that I remember buying at the toy store in the mall!  I also still have my Blueberry Baskets and, although it isn't a pony, my original lavender Dream Castle with the original accessories minus one goblet!  It was my only playset that survived multiple moves and yard sales!

Ooo, well, the lavender Dream Castle is a good one to keep!  I remember seeing it in Wal-Mart back in the day and thinking, "They messed it up!  The Dream Castle is supposed to be pink!"  So I didn't even ask for one.  Now I wish I hadn't been quite such a pony purist, lol!

I had Fireball when I was little and even though my collection was donated to charity when I was a teenager I kept him... but I don't know where he went I kept him in my box of memories with Applejack but they disappeared *shrug* I had some of the seven tales characters and a couple other Euro ponies as well

I had always wanted Dream Castle and finally got it when it was reissued c. 1989.  It came in the same box as the original, so when I opened it, I remember saying "OH NO!"  I was a purist too!  But I got used it and it was so much fun.  Too bad I sent it to the Salvation Army in high school . . .

I had probably 25+ ponies as a child but no rares except for a FF Peachy that a friend gave me (which I considered too dumpy b/c she was leaning over so much) and MO Lil' Tot.  I liked the ponies that now it seems everyone else liked, as they are super common!

I never got any really special ponies as a child. But i do know that my first pony who was SkyDancer was an Italy one and my second pony was a Blossom with scratches and thus for me very special because of the factory flaw...

[hlbmlp]

not really that rare but i had/have a few wingers, a dream beauty, and a few sweetheart sisters. oh and kingsley! I ALMOST had the wedding set, boys and accessories and all, but i went with Twirler and a few other ponies instead....  *bangs head on desk*  stupid kid me!
I did get a batch of ponies from a friend and she had kept all the ribbons and the box to the showstable.  no missing parts for her!  I got so many baby accessories and other such awesome things I would have never had otherwise!  ^__^  so yeah not really rare, just sought after i guess.

I had Rapunzel as a kid. She didn't get played with much. I remember sending off for her and waiting what seem like forever to get her back.

I had tons of ponies as a kid. But most got thrown away by my step dad by accident. We were moving and I had all my toys in this huge bag and he thought it was trash. I don't have many but I do have a few ponies from my childhood. Most came from my aunt as she had them.  Rapunzel was one of the ponies that got tossed. I remember crying for days cause I loved my ponies so much.

No "rare" or "special" ponies per se, but I wouldn't trade my original ponies for anything, even my poor Blossom with her DMC floss tail.

[creedence]

I can't remember most but I'm pretty sure I had Leaper, Edgar, the mermaid babies, and there's a big possiblity that I had mimic because my mom & grandma bought me every pony with green colors because it was my favorite color & twinkle eyes were also a favorite. 

[ButtercreamDream]

My only one that's even close is White Cap, the sea pony, with her shell.  I don't know how rare she is, but she sure has gone up in price.

[Summer-blade]

well I have three Italians they're not overly valuable but worth more than most of my other childhood ponies had no idea they were Italians till I joined the arena 

[Vintergatan]

Most of my childhood ponies are Europeans so I guess they are kinda valuable,but this one takes the cake - my Reverse Baby Candy ^^ I only found out 2 years ago that she was special
