Hi everyone!
I'm back to the arena and collecting after being out of the hobby for a couple years! I'm 32 and live in Seattle, I work as a software developer but am also an opera singer :)
As a kid I LOVED the G1 My Little Ponies - they were always some of my favorite toys and I still have my childhood collection (somewhere in storage rafters, I am working on getting them out so I can display them!). My family travelled a lot so as a kid I had a mix of US and UK stuff. I also have a very small and tattered collection of MLP comics from G1, which I read a million times over as a kid.
My favorite memory of childhood ponies is playing with my grandma's collection - she would shop at thrift stores in town to find them for me and my cousins. She had a huge collection that unfortunately we no longer have (which I am super sad about because she had some of the TAF babies and blue hearts version of Dazzleglow!). I am recollecting my favorites from her collection and also on the search for ones that I didn't have as a kid that I think are beautiful.
My sister and I are 5 years apart, so she grew up with the G2s and we also have a small collection of those. I somehow never got into G3 but got back into the collecting hobby when G4 started up. I actually found out about the show from a roommate who was a brony! I have a small collection of G4 brushables, which are super cute. G1s are still my favorite though :)
Anyhow, that is a little about me - looking forward to meeting you all again!
