SoSilver, you're the best for letting Hasbro borrow your ponies for display!  As always, they look stunning and I'm sure they were admired by everyone.  It looks like your ponies had a wonderful time, I'm sorry that you weren't feeling well to attend.  I hope everything is ok, and that you feel better soon!!

Your ponies look awesome on display! It's generous of you to let Hasbro borrow your ponies, I don't know if I could ever be brave enough to let my ponies out of my sight. :P

It definitely sounds like your ponies were well admired. :)

What a cool place your ponies went to!
But it is also a little funny to hear that Hasbro need to borrow them from you...

Why did Hasbro ask to borrow your ponies? O_O; how did they even know you had them? Are you getting paid? SO MANY MYSTERIES.

I do hope you feel better t hough *hugs*

Lol...SoSilver you are Hasbro Italy's own information source on their own ponies!! Congrats on getting your ponies displayed again...

Hopefully some lovely "thank yous" from them! Although it is pretty fab to see your ponies in such a lovely display I think!

Aww, your pictures are having a 502 error right now. :<
But that's still so cool! I have all the same questions as bagheera. XD


Oh, pics are working now. They look so wonderful on display. I love the unfinished/prototype ponies.  :)

Spike the (newborn) baby dragon (http://www.flickr.com/photos/57974255@N00/6874413334/) by SoSilver (http://www.flickr.com/people/57974255@N00/), on Flickr


But sadly also with 2 bad news...
First, that the exclusive ponies seen at the Toy Fair (Nightmare Moon, Zecora and all the other for the show) will not be available in Italy =(
And second, my lovely MOC Sweet Tooth on french card has been damaged, probably because they put her in a box with too many ponies and her bubble is now cracked=(

Well, that's it!

congrats on the Spike! That's a shame a pony of yours got damaged, at least she didn't totally get decarded??  And sad news for Italy pony memebers! All those show exclusives ....

Aww Spike is cute! That's too bad that one of your pony's cards was damaged. :(

I wonder, why did they choose the ones they did? It seems like most are prototypes or variants aren't they?
Title: Re: My ponies went out for the weekend^_^
Post by: Dragonflitter on March 27, 2012, 10:39:18 AM
Ugh! They KNEW how rare a G1 on card was, yet they didn't return it with special care taken during shipping? That stinks! >.<

I'm glad the rest of the collection was okay, and the Spike plush is super cute, but man that's sad news, SoSilver...

Oh that stinks:(.  You can't catch a break lately!!  I'm sorry hunny.  As far as no-Italian releases, don't worry...you have tons of overseas friends who would love to help you out! 
Title: Re: My ponies went out for the weekend^_^
Post by: hathorcat on March 27, 2012, 01:22:54 PM
Gosh...you think they would have been more careful!

Spike is a handsome young chap though! Congrats

Can I be nosy SoSilver...do you have TRU in Italy? I am still hoping we ll get this set in the UK but the lack of an Italian release could spell bad news for the rest of Euro...unless its a worldwide TRU exclusive and maybe thats why if you dont have TRU in Italy???
Title: Re: My ponies went out for the weekend^_^
Post by: gabumon on March 27, 2012, 05:05:09 PM
sorry to hear about the damage.  maybe next time you should have them sign a waiver? "I the undersigned will not harm any ponies or packaging" ?
Title: Re: My ponies went out for the weekend^_^
Post by: karrie91 on March 27, 2012, 05:11:56 PM
ZOMG baby spike is adorable!
Title: Re: My ponies went out for the weekend^_^

Hi everyone^_^
Sorry for my on/off replies but i am still not well.

Yep, Sweet Tooth is ruined, but i hope they will find a way to cheer me up^_^

And Hathorcat, here we sorta have TRU, but it's called Toys Center (same company, easier name for italians^_^), and they usually have the exclusives, but this time it's a no=(

Title: Re: My ponies went out for the weekend^_^
Post by: Lon-san on March 28, 2012, 06:40:59 AM
-_- Cracked bubble. My condolences. Considering the value of this stuff, I agree with Dragonflitter that more care should be taken. How many people are willing to get their stuff be borrowed, too? They don't want to sour you on the experience!

Yay for free Spike! Of the babies that have been released, I think he makes the most sense because he has actually appeared in the show as a hatchling :3
