Title: Your ponies are alive : what do you do?
Post by: Jorgito93 on May 25, 2016, 02:39:54 PM
I have this toy story thing in my mind since a long time and i wanted to ask you about it: What would be your reaction and what would you do if your ponies were alive?
I don't know how i would react but i know what i would do : saying thank you to them, because even if they don't talk they still manage to make me smile everytime i look at them.Also i would ask them to tell me their history, because some of them look like they have really lived many things.

Give them a list of chores and a list of books I need notes on and set them to work. Many hooves make light work.

Then I'd ask them about their stories and where they came from, who they lived with and what kinds of games they played.

Oh goodness... probably freak out about how I'm going to feed and house 1,000+ tiny horses...
and deal with the inevitable after-effects of food consumption.

We'd never have to mow the neighbourhood lawns ever again.

Yep, this has been on my mind since 1995 and it's the reason I feel so terrible that so many of them are in boxes! Definitely the first thing I would do would be to get the ones that are in boxes out! Then I'd probably have a fit of social anxiety, knowing that I'd never be alone again... not that I'm alone now. As I type I have two dogs trying to eat the crackers I'm snacking on.

I wonder if I could afford to quit my job and become full time care taker of tiny ponies. Maybe I could charge admission to meet and greet with them. :lol: I wonder how all the Mintys will interact. That would be priceless! I just hope the baits and unfinished projects don't come to life too! I think they would attack me for revenge of leaving them in drawers and pulling out all their hair!

Probably ask them about their history, tbh!Hopefully my childhood ponies and the new arrivals wouldn't clash... Also my Euro exclusive G2s most likely wouldn't speak english so language barrier 0.0 I'd also immediately have to rush my single sea pony to some water so she wouldn't dry out from being on my desk...

Some of the replies are really awesome. XD

I would probably scream and call my husband, because I would be terrified to have really lost it this time. If he sees them too and it's all real, I would love it! Though there will need to be some boundaries, especially for the baby ponies. I can't handle children very well, let alone a hundred of them... XD

to be honest at the very first moment I think I will be very very surprised!! :shocked: but soon after I will be too excited to talk with them!!
When I was a kid I kept looking at Tickle for some minutes and always dreamed that she will move her eyes or one of her leg  :blush: :blush: so yes I will definitively be too happy if they would be alive  :P

PANIC. I've beheaded some of them for cleaning, and left 2 others with tail rust I was too lazy to fix. Also, think of all the twins and seperated from their siblings and family babies seperated from their parents - what if they constantly requested you reunite them? That would be heartbreaking... And how would I take care of them all? Think of all the food! And the waste!

...other than that, I'd probably just tell them to stay perfectly still as to not mess up the hair I painstakingly styled for them, haha.

Probably run away from shock after that maybe try to get used to it. I have alot of ponies to free from rubber-made bins. The ones in the bait piles would kill me id have zombie ponies coming after me from the grave... -_- not good. Also the ones filled with rust/pony age spots... would they carry diseases to the others? ugh my doctor bill!

I'm not sure if this ruins the awesomeness of this thread, but I have a friend who talks to spirits, for lack of a better description. A little like John Edwards. When she was still learning, I asked her to read one of my ponies, Lil' Tot. I wanted to know if she was given to a sick child or bought as part of the charity, though I'm not sure this was actually how she was distributed. That was the rumor at the time, at least.
When she read the pony, she only felt happiness. She said Lil' Tot was happy that someone cared about her, and that she wasn't alone or in the trash. So in a way, I think all my ponies are sort of alive.
I've considered having her read other ponies now that she is better at it/more practiced, but I feel like I know what I need to know. I'm mostly just curious how my friend's "powers" have evolved.

Now, if they started moving and messing with me, we'd have to have words. I picture them peeking behind corners and then standing still, like they had never moved at all.

well, it depends. would it be exactly like toy story where they're toys with sentience that know they're toys, or would they literally turn into (very) small horses?

i loooooooved toy story (still do) so i think the first scenario would be cool~ i'd ask the ones i bought off ebay where they'd been!

the second scenario? run and hide while there's still time

I think Baby Tiddlely Winks and the other baby ponies would cry because I don't have the Lullabye Nursery anymore. I would try to explain to them that it was broken but I'm sure they wouldn't listen and they complain that they don't have enough toys because I don't have many baby accessories.

Post by: Jorgito93 on May 26, 2016, 01:59:23 PM
Wow so much answers on my topic!
For bladed, i was thinking in a toy story way, so alive toys that know they are toys.
I also think newborn twins that are without their siblings or family ponis without their family would be hard to take care of...My poor Jebber crying because her sister isn't there....
I also think i would keep too many doubles, because you can't separate ponies that were owned by the same person, right?Upgrades would be hard, it would be heartbreaking to replace a girl that has been with you for a long time just because the new one is prettier.
But even with all that, i think talking to the girls you love would still be worth it.

Well, I'd be pretty embarrassed about what they may have seen in what I believed was the privacy of my own bedroom for starters? Annd if be pretty daunted about trying to find living space and feed 200+ up small animals (on top of feeding 29 real farm animals!)

But once I can work that out, it'd be pretty awesome! I'd hang out with them all the time and make them homes to live in. :D

Talking toys? Probably freak out and set them on fire honestly. -_-

I'd have kind of the same reaction, but minus the fire. I'd probably run out of my apartment with the nearest weapon to hand. Because that would scare the ever-loving crap out of me. It would be like living in the uncanny valley.

I would ask the unicorns to use their magic and take me back in time so I can buy the G1's I wanted and maybe some G3's and to buy earlier Monster High dolls since I started collecting later I missed most of the earlier dolls and I could pay retail instead of 10 times the amount.  Long sentence sorry.  >_<

There'd be a lot of pony group therapy.

I bargain shop lots on eBay and they are in pretty rough shape!  Especially the box of "customs WIP" and bait I just got in yesterday...there would be some serious PTSD to work through for sure.

As for taking off the heads, that's bad enough but what about the ones I couldn't pull the heads off of last week:  I tore one neck and the rest I sucked boiling water up through their tail holes...not to mention the eye replacement...if these came to life I would have to sleep with one eye open!

It would still be great though, what an awesome idea thanks for this!

I love this question. XD

I have over a thousand ponies, so it would be hard managing them all, keeping them together and stopping them from destroying parts of my home. Not to mention, taking pictures of my ponies would involve making them stand in the exact pose they're manufactured in. I couldn't sell any of them either, for various reasons. XD

Reanna-mator with that used ID it sounds like you might be speaking from experience....I can see it now, not just for pictures but required to stand all day in stock poses in their places on the shelves...how they complain about your rules when you aren't there to hear!

Well, so long as they were still toys, so they didn't need to eat or poop, I'd be super happy! I'd set up all my castles in a big area for them to have a little town in.... I'd make them tons of little clothes, and just have fun watching them. But if they were ALIVE alive?? Nu-uh. I don't care how small they are, I have like, six dozen ponies in my room..... and that's a LOT of little poops to try and find before I step in them... Plus, I'd be going through probably a pound of greens every day just to feed them all three meals a day...... Then of course I'd have to deal with unicorn magic beams, pegasi flying around my head.... and what if they didn't get along!? Then I'd have a tiny war underfoot and be in a nightmare, trying to keep them clean and undamaged....

Would they need to go to the bathroom!? Would I need to do a collection role call every morning so I know if one got lost?

I'm surprised at how most of the answers interpret the question in a non-Toy Story way, considering the OP mentions Toy Story as the topic inspiration. Definitely if there were real little animals to feed and clean up from, it would be a nightmare. LOL. If they were still toys, it would be a lot less stressful. But still probably hard to get sleep, unless they were respectful of the need for sleep and stayed quiet then.

To agree with Aitsuki, as long as they didn't need a litterbox, I'd be OK with it. Not sure how keen I'd be with them running all over the place, though. I have a mid-sized apartment and over 500 ponies....

OK, let's get real. It would be a LIFE CHANGING experience. Word would get out and every scientist in the world would be invading and the government would quarantine my house and I'd make millions from book deals and interviews, etc etc. And then I would be pony-less. What good would all that money be with no ponies?!?!

So just to add a postscript to this...

I bought her, shoved her into a bag inside mine and travelled back. 1 train and 2 buses later, I get home, open my bag and...

From inside, a voice suddenly goes, "Hii!"

....Apparently she is a talking Pinkie. But she was mute till that moment...talk about timing!!

This cracked me up! I can imagine how that must of been for you, especially having been part of this thread. xD
Other than apologizing profusely for everything they've been through during their lifetimes, sadly for most of them because of me, I'd have to find out if ALL ponies were alive and if they were go bankrupt a million times over buying up every MIB pony in existence and freeing them from their prisons. lol
I think I'd love it though as long as I could keep it a secret and not have to deal with scientists/government agencies coming to take away my friends.

As I took her out of the bag, she started laughing, so I started laughing. She's since told me her name xD so I think we're friends now..?

Just goes to show that you should be careful what you wish for ;)

 But I had no idea till then that she spoke. I didn't realise which version she was, as I've never really looked for/at Mane 6 dolls!

I'd have hell on my hands. Literally. Because not only do I have 400 odd ponies, nearly 100 EQGs, plus the assorted barbies, MH/EAH that keep finding their way in I also have a rather healthy collection of...

DALEKS.

I have over 40 of them. That's enough to wipe out my town three times over small though they may be!

Oh man! I've thought about this a few times before: would the villain characters still be evil? Would the unicorns and alicorns still have their magic? (God help me if my Funko Discords could use their magic) Would my blind bag ponies ever forgive me for putting them all in a plastic storage bin?!

At first, I would think that I'm dreaming. Then I'd panic and freak out once I realize that I was in fact not dreaming and I had toy ponies running around my bedroom. After calming down I would giggle and squee like a giddy six year old and ask them questions and play with them and introduce them to my family/break the news that we have 100-ish more mouths to feed.

I'd probably only dig living toys if it was like Toy Story and not as in living, breathing, animals... o-o

First I'd totally apologize to my childhood ponies for treating 'em the way I did. Then apologize to the rest of my collection for keeping them stuffed inside shoe boxes and containers since I moved into my new place almost a year ago. ^^; Then I would offer to give them a good pampering like washing/styling their hair if that's what they desired. Assuming it's like Toy Story they'd WANT to be played with since they know they are toys and seem to get sad if they are ignored.  I'd also warn them to avoid making the cat interested.

So just to add a postscript to this...

Today I went to a carboot sale. Saw lots of g3, which I don't collect, and a Pinkie Pie doll, which I bought (50p).

I bought her, shoved her into a bag inside mine and travelled back. 1 train and 2 buses later, I get home, open my bag and...

From inside, a voice suddenly goes, "Hii!"

....Apparently she is a talking Pinkie. But she was mute till that moment...talk about timing!!

 :lol: That's priceless and after reading this thread too!

I'd probably only dig living toys if it was like Toy Story and not as in living, breathing, animals... o-o

I'd be okay with Toy Story alive. That could be a lot of fun, up until my TFs, Mega Man toys, Skylanders and Toy horses came to life. They'd all be trying to bump each other off for the best shelf space.

That made me think. If it was just the ponies, it'd be chaotic enough - I don't know how many ponies live in my room, but it's at the very least several hundred sets of hooves of various generations. However, if it then spread to my dolls...

So you see, my Jem dolls live in their own cabinet which was built for them when the room was redone about ten years ago. Before that, they lived on shelves. At that time, dolls kept falling off the shelf. It was always the doll next to or in front of this one particular Aja doll, so my sister and I nicknamed her evil Aja. She is my 2nd edition Aja doll.

Now they're in and on the cabinet, and Aja lives on the top. Since they've been there, 2nd Shana and 2nd Kimber (the dolls who live beside her) have BOTH gone flying off the top of the cabinet for no apparent reason.

This is very odd to me, because it's always the dolls around this Aja that go flying.

So if they were to actually come to life...oh dear. I think that might just be chaos ;)

That honestly makes me question whether or not I'd even want a Toy Story setting, now. I've got a TON TF's and various other toy collections. If they ALL came to life I suspect there would be a lot more than just bumping each other around the the shelves. .__.; Would they all get along? How long would it take for them to realize they are toys? 
Even if it was just the ponies, how well would THEY get along? What if there were prejudices between the different generations? Plus how fun would living toys be in the the long-term? Would you get sick of having so many tiny, talking beings in your house? You'd never be alone anymore.

Edit: Plus you'd have to worry about every new toy you bought, too. Toy Story-wise, most toys come out of the box under the belief they are that character. Every new Megatron would be trying to rally the rest of my Decepticons to fight all the Autobots.

That is seriously creepy. Your Aja seems to be possessed! I am so glad my Merriweather doesn't act like that.

So this has all probably been done on Youtube already?  There is a whole LPS vs MLP epic...was too time consuming to watch more than a few little bits.

Maybe it'd be a Lord of the Flies scenario...

Look at the bright side, it'd cut down on numbers-I mean Shame on them! :pout:

As for alone time, yeah...that'd be a big problem. You could always dump them in the garage when you need some youtime. Or you and lover time, or family time.

Maybe it would bring the rise of toy daycare services?

Want a candlelit romantic homecooked dinner with your sweetie? Make an appt. Your Starscream getting bit by your Gusty and the ensuing argument gives you a migraine? You know who to call. :lol:
