Hello everyone! I'm Mosspath, a brand-new member! I do believe an introduction is in order:
I've got a story that's probably similar to most collectors. I was a G3 kid, no doubt about it. My sister and I had a few ponies that were a sort of "joint herd" between the two of us. They were hers, primarily, but we had such fun playing together! I have great memories of making deals over who would get to play as Sunny Daze, the unquestionable herd favorite.
Flash forward a few years, and we're older. The ponies were moved into the closet, but (thankfully!) never thrown out or forgotten. They'd make it out now and again when we felt nostalgic, but for the most part, they were in storage. After all, big girls don't play with plastic ponies.
October 2010. My sister, flipping through tv channels, sees that there's a new My Little Pony show on The Hub, some new kids channel. The two of us figure we'll watch it for laughs. But I think the two of us were secretly excited. Could I really love ponies again?
The answer was, of course, a big yes! We were quickly hooked to the series, even waking up early on Saturdays to catch the newest episode. And when I found out they had new toys, well, that's when the real fun began!
My herd started off with the single Pinkie Pie as a birthday gift from my sister. Boy, has it grown! As of now I've got almost 30 ponies! We dug the G3s out, and they currently reside in my sister's herd, along with her growing G4 collection. Truth be told, I still sneek in brush them sometimes!
So how'd I get here? When I was looking up how to identify and fix the long-boxed G3 herd (the hair!!), I found the Arena. I thought how friendly you all were, but I didn't see myself as a true collector, with only one pony to my name. But the herd grew, as did the amount of time I spent browsing the topics here. So I figured it was about time I joined!
My herd is only G4s for now, but I like the G1 and G3s as well, and hope to add them soon. My favorite G1 pony is probably Firefly. G3 is definatley Sunny Daze, the original favorite. As for G4, I love Twilight Sparkle in the show, but my favorite toy is the blindbag Sweetcream Scoops (her colors are so pretty!). My other loves in life include The Beatles, art, and Disney.
Wow, that was a long one! Hugs if you read the whole thing! Hope to see you around the arena!
