Hello there
« on: April 06, 2012, 10:55:03 AM »
Hi all I'm Nina. I'm 25 and I live in California. I'm a poor college student studying psychology and working part time at a bookstore doing shipping.
When we were little my sister and i received our first ponies from our cousins who had grown "too old" for them. Sadly we were given a 2 each limit and I've pined for that Dream Castle ever since. I still have Whizzer (sans a tail), faded hair Posey, and a unicorn fakie,, we had a Tic-Tac-Toe but she has been misplaced.
When G3 started I got into collecting them but being a poor college student I got out of it. I just got together with my boyfriend the beginning of this year and he thinks that my love for ponie is great and so when ever he goes to the Goodwill bins or a flea market he brings back several ponies. (Anyone need bait?) Needless to say he has helped rekindle my passion for collecting.
Then there is the best little sis ever. 2 Christmases in a row she has gone to etsy and bought me G1s. She got a Whizzer with a tail, Butterscotch, and beddy bye eyes baby Lickety Split. I was thrilled with the baby but man are those eyes creepy! This past year she got me the Big Brother Pony Steamer still with his conductor's cap (anyone have the bandana?) Again I was thrilled as i had never seen a Big Brother in person before.
My favorite generations are 1 and 3. I honestly am not a fan of the newest generation they are cute as a seperate toy but as a my little pony their design bugs me. In imitation of FiM the tiny noses with big heads and eyes and the ear shape just make me think of deer. I miss G3
I have about 20 G3s i purchased when they came out, 2 G1s from childhood, the 4 G1s from my sister and then i've picked up from thrift stores etc a Skyflier with a buzzcut, Sugersweet, a Cherry Treats that smells like old lady power (even after a soak she smells so strong I have to keep her way up high on a shelf) Forget-Me-Not and the flutter from the party pack. Then there are a bunch of G3's my boyfriend picked up second hand. Most i've kept for my collection others i'll offer to someone as bait.
I've created pony versions of my whole family as well as myself and my boyfriend. I really want to get a custom made for my boyfriend someday he'd go nuts. My love for ponies has gotten him so interest he reported one day he is practically a "brony"
Long post. I love to talk...

Welcome to the arena. I hope you enjoy your stay! Yes, the BBE ponies can be creepy, especially if their eyes are rusted! They're still kinda cute though!
