Title: awkward introduction time
Post by: WalmartRollaback on November 21, 2013, 10:11:54 PM

Hello~
It's been awhile since I've been a regular on a message board so I'm sorta shy.  >_< (and intimidated).
My username is silly so you can just call me Wally.
I'm excited to make friends and start collecting!

Onward to the provided questionnaire!

Personal:

How old are you?

24

Where do you live? State, Country?

U.S.

Do you work or attend school? Profession or major?

I do a little bit of everything at an auction house.
I also do some freelance graphic design.

Who are the important people in your life?

My husband, my mom, and my friends.

Ponies:

How long have you been collecting?

Okay, haven't actually started collecting yet  ^{I'm sorry!} because I'm relatively new to the fandom.

Which generations of ponies do you collect? G1, G2, G3 or G4?

I'll probably start with G4 and work from there.

What made you want to collect ponies?

Partially because of friend's interest, partially from working with auctions.
At the auction house we run into all sorts of collections various people have (although, surprisingly have yet to run into any MLP things... maybe because no one is willing to part with them). 80's toys are a pretty popular commodity and MLP ties into that, so...
I've become quite the collector of lots of different things, so MLP was really only of a matter of time...

I'm also interested in customization involved with the MLP collections. Really fascinating stuff that intrigues my inner artist!

Tell us about your collection!

Welcome to the Arena :wave:

I work with second hand furniture and tend to hang out at the local auction house once a week. It's always exciting to see what comes up for sale and I've even managed to find a couple of ponies over the years.  I hope you enjoy the forums :frolic:

Welcome to the Arena! :)

I love 80s toys too. GI Joe, He-Man/She-Ra, all those great things. :) I don't wanna grow-up!

:newpony: and welcome to the Arena.  No need to apologize for not having a collection yet, we all had to start at the same point with none.  But hang here enough and that will not last.

:D welcome! No worries about the collection, everyone has to start somewhere. Tell us about g4s. Who are your favorites? Are there any you think you might start buying?
