Oh, this way premature, but I just HAD to day something! Probably not the right forum for it, but here goes:
I found something.
It's online.
It is a pony related item that I had as a child and loved, loved, loved! It's not considered valuable, but I have never found it in all my years of collecting...until today. It is the ONE THING I wish I had never ever gotten rid of.
Please cross your fingers for me!
-
uh-oh ... I WANNA KNOW! lol
*crosses all fingers and toes and legs and arms and thumbs and big toes*
good luck! :)
-
Ahhh I can't take the suspense!!!!! :whoa: xxxx
-
I want to know!!
-
What is it?
-
It's a book....I shall say no more :angel:
-
Sounds interesting. Make sure you update your thread title once you let us know what it is :D
-
I hope you get it! *fingers crossed*
-
Just a few more days to go! No one has placed a big yet! I think I may cry if I win this (I know that's silly, but it has to be one of my all-time favorite pony items!)
-
I'm so curious! I don't do Ebay so you can show me :biggrin:
-
I won! I won! I was the only bidder! :panda:
Okay, so what did I want ever-so-badly?
The Diamond Sticker Book that promoted the MLP Movie!!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-2-Diamond-sticker-books-My-Little-Pony-Jem-the-Holograms-1986-VTG-/161142033980?nma=true&si=kG3IZXz86JV0Gpfr%252FYcWdfRZcXo%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
Original retail price: $0.39 XD
I remember, when my mom bought it for me, she said: "I'll get this for you, but I'm not buying all of those stickers!" lol
I spent SO many hours using the red decoder to "read" this book. I took it everywhere with me. Even when I was older (too old for the target audience of the book), I'd pull it off the shelf to reminisce.
I remember when the decoder was so worn out that it just fell apart one day. It was accidentally thrown away, but my mom helped me find red cellophane so I could still use the book.
I was also convinced by the ad on the back that I NEEDED that Flutter Pony messenger bag (or collapsible luggage as they call it). The thing was, by the time I figured out that I must have that bag, the mail order promo was long over (like, years and years, hahaha). I still have never seen either of those bags for sale.
I am just so darn happy...and it's my birthday on Monday, so it's the perfect excuse for me to indulge myself!
...and, by the way, I have no need for that Jem book. I'd be happy to sell or trade it to someone ;)
-
SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE! so awesome! CONGRATS! :)
-
Aww, congrats! I'm so happy you won it :D
-

Congratulations! I'm glad that you won it!!

How wonderful :D nostalgia is one of my favourite things <3 I'm still waiting for the day that I see the MLP sleeping bag I had (and wore into the ground) as a child mint in the packaging..... I think I'd cry if I found it! HUGE congrats on reclaiming on of your childhood favourites :heart:
-
the sweet scent of nostalgia! :biggrin: congrats on winning an old childhood item! :3
-
Congrats on your win! :frolic:

I think I have that same book around here somewhere. I'd love to have a complete one with all the stickers in it. Nice and straight of course. :P
-
Thank you, everyone! The seller emailed me to let me know she put it in the mail. I just had to tell her how excited I was to get it <3

I'm curious which one you had! I'm thinking either the PE bag or the MGR ponies...just a guess ;)

LoL, I would love to see one of those myself! Even as an adult, I can't put stickers on straight.

Ooo, congrats! It's always fun to be able to track down items you had as a child. :)

Congrats & happy Birthday! What a cool item; I've never seen one :)
