Hi everyone! My name is Robin, I'm 26, and I live in Illinois. I am a member on the tp and thought I'd come on over here to the arena to get double the pony goodness. I have been collecting since the early 90s. My dad is a collector of many different things and was the one who got me started collecting ponies. I collect all generations. I go to the flea market and toy show a lot. Many venders there know me as the pony girl. The last time I counted my pony herd I believe I was around maybe 600 or so. Not sure what it is now. I also kind of have a Pinkie Pie army. Lots and lots of Pinkie Pies. :biggrin:

Welcome, 'pony girl'. Flea markets are such fun to go to when you are a collector, aren't they? You never know what you're going to find! I hope you enjoy being part of the community here :frolic:

Welcome to the Arena, Pinkie Pie does seem to make good armies.
Yes she does! :biggrin:

Yes I do. I live not even 5 minutes away. I've been going almost every weekend since the early 90s with my parents. Actually, about 3/4 of my vintage ponies came from there. Now a days I mainly only find g3s there. Back in the 90s early 2000s I was finding g1s almost every month.

Hey! In all my years of collecting I have only run into a handful of collectors from around here. Nice to meet you. :)

Isn't she! I just love her! I'll post a pick of my army sometime. The last time I took a pic of them was back in 09 so it has really grown since then.
