Title: Howdy!
Post by: Jollylittlefox on August 28, 2018, 04:20:32 PM: Hi there,

Hope I'm posting my introduction in the right place. My name is Lauren, I'm in my 30's living in Los Angeles, CA. The 35th Anniversary (1st wave) release reinvigorated my love for ponies. I was an avid MLP lover as child and had (what I thought at the time) was an extensive and beautiful collection of G1.

Unfortunately, I knew that most of my childhood ponies were gone, save for a few that I managed to save. I honestly can't remember who all I had, but as I begin to re-collect G1s and re-familiarize myself with them, it's slowly coming back who I remember playing with.

This might be silly, but my favorites were always the ponies with food on them, plus brush n grow. Glittering Gem and Sugarberry (who I both still have) were favorites as well as Bright Eyes.

I am working now on finishing a few sets including y6 & 7 brush n grow ponies (only Curly Locks left to get), Sweetberry Ponies (Cranberry Muffins and Raspberry Jam) and Candy Cane ponies--of these I only have two, Sugar Apple and Caramel Crunch, so I still have most left to track down.

I have a full set of Sundae Best and several other random ponies. I think I would also like to work on gathering a set of the Merry Go Round ponies and trying to pick up Twinkle Eyed ponies here and there as well.

Thank you for having me into the group and I look forward to being here. :)

Food cutie marks always seem to be the most adorable ones. Sounds like your well on your way to completing some amazing sets! Boysenberry Pie has always held a special place in my heart—it's that adorable purple-pink combo. :heart: Hope you find all your childhood favs.

See you around the forum!
