Title: You guys were right...!
Post by: OctoberFlash on February 15, 2012, 05:23:51 PM
When I first joined here, I remembered reading things such as "ponies multiply! you start with one, and then you have 20, and then.."

I thought "nah, that'll never happen to me." Because I had a strict list of ponies, and these were the ONLY ponies I was getting.

Yeah, i was wrong.  :P

you guys were right, they DO multiply. Jeeeez! xD tell me I'm not the only one who was like that at first?

You'll start out as "I only want a few then I'm done"... BUT THEN YOU DISCOVER THE ARENA..
And boy, does it open you up to things you've never seen. Of course, you'll WANT some of those things you see. Then tell yourself "Only these few more, they're nice too."
Fast forward, your room is drowning on ponies. XD
I don't think I can ever stop collecting. Too many beautiful Nirvanas. ;___;
And now with these Venezuela ponies........ Never know what else will appear!

If you value your wallet's life at all, stay away from Nirvanas! :drunk: They murder wallets and bank accounts! :drunk:

Yup!  I started out with the FIM molded gift pack, then I had to get the rest of the Mane six (how I cursed their wild hair at first!)  and now I am snapping up every cute pony I can afford!  Whenever I run out of G4s to buy, its back to the G3s! I'm also eyeing all those G1 baby unicorns, they're awfully cute.  :3

My room is already dominated by ponies, soon it will be overrun!

No kidding I seriously think this has become some kind of addiction with me... I see pony. I buy pony.
Every time I buy a pony I think "Ahh this will be my last for a while now ^_^" and then BAM!! I see more and I have to get them!! >.< There's just something ABOUT ponies... argh!!

I don't think theres ever a "finish or done" with ponies. I think theres always some pony out there I want too. I have a huge school enough to load up two nurseries full of baby ponies and more im gonna need a ponyland because thats how many I have. I swear they just seem to multiply when im not looking. ><:

Still not with me, Glacia.

Fortunately I've only bought 3 nirvanas in my life (yet), they usually are way expensive to actively try to get them *sad*

But it is true, they MULTIPLY!!

Yeah, I started out saying 'I'll buy the Mane Six from G4!', then I said 'only as many as I can fit here or there', now I need another shelf to house all of my ponies.

Yuuuup. Originally I was just going to get the mane 6 for FIM, but I feel in love with the cute new design! Now I'm looking to have a complete g4 brushable colelction! Luckily they're small enough but they quickly took over my bookcase

I started with "It's only a Fluttershy! It would be the same as the G3s!". Dead wrong. Not only do I now have 200++ G4 ponies, it seems that my G3s has started multiplying as well...

Yes I was! I had a nice small list for G1 then I got hooked on G4 too!

:lmao:

We all told you so! But we are all also victims of the addiction as well...shoot, I started out with just a few, now I have an entire room dedicated to them. There are like 1200-1300 of them! :faint:

Yes, ponies are an addiction. A wonderful, adorable addiction. I have no regrets! XD

You'll even say things like "I'll never want a pony like TEs, G2s, etc..." And then all of them will end up on your pony list.

Yeahhhhhh.... I was a strict G1 collector until I happened across 155 NM G3's for $75. I bought them thinking I could sell them to people that collect them. I set them all neatly on this really cool ladder shelf I have. The more I looked at them, the more I fell in love with them. In the end I did not let ONE PONY GO. They became my first additions to my G3 collection. Now I collect G1's AND G3's...lmao! :lol:

At first it was just the Mane 6 from Friendship is Magic...then it was only certain G4 ponies, then I decided to collect all G4 ponies. I started looking through the arena and other MLP websites and starting adding G1s to my list. Then I saw some really pretty G2s and now I have a list of those I want. So far I have no G3s on my list except Minty. My list is too long already so I really hope I don't get into G3s!

I started off planning to just get the mane 6 of FIM too. Got them while I was out at Target one day just before Christmas, when I got home with them and my boyfriend saw them he said, "Oh hey, you bought ponies....do you want me to get you the rest of them for Christmas?"

 :blink: <--me "Uh.....okay?"

And thus began the G4 pony hunt....

I said I wouldn't get the fashion style ponies.....have all of those
I said I wouldn't get the blind bags....my boyfriend just ordered the box for me from Hasbro...
I said I wouldn't bother with the play set exclusive ponies (Sweetie Swirl and Starbeam Twinkle)....my boyfriend bought me one and I ordered the other on sale from Sears a few days ago
I said I wouldn't get sets that would end up with me having multiples of the same pony....I have 2 Twilight Sparkles, 3 Princess Celestias, and soon I'll have 3 Raritys, 2 Rainbow Dashes, and 2 Fluttershys....
THEN I said I wouldn't get the Euro ponies.....guess what I ordered on eBay about a week ago...

I seriously at the moment have eight ponies on the way here....that could possibly all appear at the same time......my mom is going to strangle me lol

I've been looking at some G3s that I think are nice too....there's no end to it  XD

Yeah....and it always seems to happen when you are not looking...one minute there are a nice half dozen ponies on a shelf...look away and look back and there seems to be a book case full!! They attract one another like little pony magnets....
