Title: Adventure Cards (for the Adventures in Ponyland Board Game)
Post by: mercynova on June 14, 2013, 08:57:21 AM
I love these! I have a few of the US ones and the UK ones but I am desperately after more.

In the mean time does anyone have any pictures of theirs?

I don't suppose there is anywhere where all the different ones are documented?

These are what I'm talking about if you're unaware:

They actually came included with ponies around the same time as the mail order offer was on... It makes me sad to think how many thousands must just have been thrown straight away!

They seriously cost around $30 (but maybe less if you're lucky) for a small sheet of cardboard :D

Wow, pretty steep price! They're so cute though, I would love to have some :) I don't want to think about people throwing them away :yikes: I hate that I threw away the backcards to my ponies when I was little :faint: Now I'm spending $5 - $10 on pieces of cardboard as my sister calls it :lol: Works of art, not card board ;)

I can't remember how many I have, will have to go count them but a while back (2009) I traded scans with ashlyne (she is a member here on the arena)- she has a lot and might be better be able to help you on how many there are. I think when we were discussing them back then I think she told me she had around 39 or 40 at the time.

I had one in my set she didn't have so I scanned it an emailed it to her and we traded scans, etc.

I used to have a few of these but way undersold them apparently lol. I even searched all my MIB ponies and plucked a few out for people:)

Yeah they cost a lot! I only have four of them myself. I used them to create my Adventure Card Adopt

This isn't a real one - but it is how they look on the front. On the Back is a direction for the game.

Yep, they are usually upwards of $30.  I had the ones from my TAF Sweetberry and Dancing Butterflies that I got as a kid.

I didn't know they came with ponies! That's cool :) So did they come with the pony on the card or with random ponies?

The ponies on the card - they were packed in a similar way to the leaflets or mail order pamphlets.
