Title: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: Deep Purple Crystal on December 07, 2013, 01:37:39 AM

I have finally decided here to start an official G1 comic scan thread for those of you (and me) who would like to share their comic scans.
So, which comic should I scan in first?
I have available...
58, 84-85, 102, 105, 154-155, 163, 173, 175, 182, 190, 196, 205-207, 209, 211-212, 215, 221.
Or, would one of the users viewing this thread like to have a go first?

I have the Annual 1988
It will take me time to scan.

I suppose it will, considering annuals are longer than comics.

Hope it contains Mountain Boys!

I will start scanning in a story with GIANT MUTATED CATERPILLARS in somewhere this week, hopefully I'll do it by tonight.

Thanks so much for that! And hey look, there's a panel featuring Snowflake and Powder together, which makes me really happy because I always think they go together so well!

Does anyone has that book which contained story about Moonstone making a fluffy thing for moon elves or similar, and there were also story about mud monsters. I can't remember the name of the comic book or all the stories but I would like to read that book.

Some childhood memories...

I'm very sorry for being late, but I forgot that in our current home, we don't have a scanner, and I need to wait to get one.

Would photos do?

Title: Re: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: LunaCat on December 10, 2013, 05:12:12 PM

Before I do the photos tomorrow, are there any particular comics you would like to see photos of, preferably ones that you don't have? My entire collection (twenty-one comics in all) looks quite impressive on the floor, and I will try to photograph that too.

Photos will include the comic with the GIANT MUTANT CATERPILLAR in, the Tales comic where Bright Eyes calls Lancer a stupid boy, the one with orange Ace in, my comic with an activity featuring Chatterbox, the one where the new family, the Berrytowns, move in, and a comic where Teddy READS A LOVE POEM IN FRONT OF THE CLASS.

That would be amazing to see them all lined up :) And I think you should surprise us with your favourite story!

Title: Re: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: Deep Purple Crystal on December 15, 2013, 04:03:43 PM

I have taken photos, now just need to get them to this site...

Title: Re: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: hathorcat on December 15, 2013, 06:34:11 PM

There are some handy instructions here - http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,341766.0.html

This is for photobucket but you can use any image sharing site and then simply follow the same process for pasting them into your post as is detailed at the bottom of that thread.

Wow they did mess up a lot the colors of the ponies from MLPtales -_-

Green Ace, a red Teddy but is also green in a different page of the same issue?? :shocked: and Miss Hackney has Teddy's color?

Title: Re: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: Deep Purple Crystal on December 16, 2013, 03:15:54 PM

Yeah, that is hilarious :).
Did you see the comic where Ace has a BRAID in his hair, and the Lancer one where he is called a stupid boy?

Post Merge: December 16, 2013, 03:20:12 PM

Oh, and by the way, Ms. Hackney is purple on the same page, and Melody, Starlight, and Sweetheart are blue as well.

And, by the way, Nollilols, did you have the Tales comics as a kid?

LOL it seems they didn't knew the existence of a character sheet :lol:

Ace also has a clover symbol and is green wit orange hair in one of the pages >_<

Wish one is page wi the braid?

Title: Re: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: Deep Purple Crystal on December 18, 2013, 01:36:57 AM

It's one that says 'Happy Birthday Ace' on balloons, and it shows the Seven Characters, Ace with a braid, and some other ponies at Ace's birthday party. It's an 'Unscramble the Name' activity.

Yep, I had nearly all of them, my mum had my local newsagent order them in for me and she brought them home for me every week. I had all of the Nature Fun and Learn Lion King magazines too, and they're all torn/thrown away as well. I was a terrible human being when I was a child. :cry:

Title: Re: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: Deep Purple Crystal on December 18, 2013, 04:04:03 PM

Lion King magazine????? :blink:

Does anyone else notice that in some of the photos, Teddy does not have his strange Mohawk-style cut, rather, he has normal hair?

Yeah, 80 issues. Every week had facts about wildlife, colouring pages or 'how to draw' a character from TLK, puzzles, free stickers or cardboard cut-outs to make TLK scenes (the final one was a 3-D Pride Rock with Simba and Nala cut-outs to sit on it!) - it was an amazing magazine.

Pretty sure I graduated from My Little Pony comics to the TLK magazines. I also had Wally's World and some Little Mermaid magazine - Wally's World was a geography one, and Ariel's was similar to TLK.

Cute! Kinda sad how all your Tales comics are torn up, I'd love to see 223 or at least it's cover!
Did anyone see Hungry Bon Bon (aka: No.212) on the photo album I did, or the one where Ace is orange from 221?

Title: Re: Official G1 Comic Scan thread
Post by: nollilols on December 19, 2013, 12:56:11 AM

Yeah when I was a kid I just never really looked after anything carefully. There may still be some of them floating around in my parents attic - I'll have a look over Christmas.

So, any great discoveries from the attic box?
