Bring on the PINK!

And as my other color threads, don't be surprised if I PM to offer you a free surprise pony. I'm trying to find homes for the last pieces of my collection that didn't sell when I sold off everything else. :heart: :slug:

Pony Corral / The size gap- Pony shirts for older girls (kids)
« on: June 26, 2013, 06:58:04 AM »
Now this really shouldn't be so hard. After all the target audience for MLP is little girl and FiM targets slightly older little girls. Why is there not clothing readily available in girls' size 8? I don't get this. It seriously stops at size 5 and resumes at "juniors" sizing. We love Fine sells kids' sized shirts but they are boys t-shirts and at waaaaaaaaay too wide and boxy on my girls. Journeys Kids had some but they ran teeny-tiny. The biggest size didn't fit my then 5 year old. I found exactly two in her size so far. One declares her "fabulous" and the other calls her a "princess." Well, she is neither, lol. We just want a picture of ponies, not a label.  :lookround:

I figure I should ask the experts. I don't do ebay because I like my sanity.  ;)

Does anyone know where to get a My little Pony FiM shirt for a girl wearing size 8?

Pony Brag Arena / A very sweet gift!
« on: June 24, 2013, 05:16:16 PM »
After reading my topic about my little one stealing her older sister's comic, svleonard sent them a new comic to read!  :biggrin: They were SO excited to get mail! Mail covered in pony stickers.  ^.^

I let Briar read it first for a change.

Then Ember read it aloud to Briar.

There were even 4 sheets of stickers inside. They love stickers, too!

Your kindness is majorly appreciated, svleonard! :hug:

Pony Corral / Help with comb IDs
« on: June 24, 2013, 11:37:27 AM »
So... I thought my combs were long gone. Clearly, I still have some.  :| I used to know who these belong to, but I am currently beyond clueless. Sorry about the shadow. That shadowy one is the same color as the brush up top.

Who in the hoof do these belong to?  :snail:

TIA!!

Bring on the orange!

Post pics of your orange ponies. There is just something about a group shot of orangey orangeness.

... and I may PM you to ask if I can add to your orange G1s. I have 2 lovely orangies here that need a loving home.

Pony Corral / What is the accessory that just keeps eluding you?
« on: June 23, 2013, 02:09:25 PM »
I know you have one! ^.^

I remember it took me YEARS to locate a bandanna for Quarterback, and I never did find my last seapony shell.  :lookround:

What are you still searching for?

Pony Corral / My little thief!
« on: June 21, 2013, 06:51:08 PM »
So, today was the day that my daughter, Ember, had been anxiously waiting for. The day I would drive her to the mall and she could buy a pony comic book. She loves these comics more than anything else about FiM or ponies in general. She reads them, rereads them, copies the pictures, writes her own versions. You get it, right? Borderline obsession.

She would never, EVER allow her sister to hold one. Sometimes she will allow her to *look* at one while she reads it.

So while Ember was busy drawing, I watched while Briar (little sis) sneaked up and carefully lifted the brand new, only read once comic from its spot of the shelf. She the tiptoed quietly into the next room and curled up on the couch and read it herself.

Then she returned it to it's spot right where it was. Ember has no clue!

Here's the video. Click it if you want to see/hear little Miss Sneaky in action.

I guess I probably need to start getting 2 copies. I didn't even know Briar wanted to read them. Now I wonder how many of them she's read.  :lol:

Pony Corral / May I please see...
« on: June 20, 2013, 02:08:08 PM »
Your yellow G1 ponies?

And... if I don't see in your yellow collection the ponies I have here, may I PM you for your address to send you a pony or two? FREE- for real, no catches, not a trick! Please don't PM me. I'll PM you.

I have shipped out three packages to people who appeared to be missing the ponies I had. So, no more prizes here, but keep the lovely pics coming! I adore yellow ponies.

:slug: TIA!

Does it evoke fond memories of drawing ponies in your youth?

Just me? Yeah, probably, but anyway...

She usually makes up her own ponies (mostly villains), but here are two I recognize!

Introductions / One more time
« on: June 17, 2013, 07:47:16 AM »
Doing this because I've had a few members ask who I am. :slug:

ahem... I am your slug OVERLORD. You shall bow down to...

heh, or not.

My name is RuthAnn. I have two amazing daughters. Ember is 6 and Briar is 3. They love,love,love FiM. They are the collectors now, not me. I haven't collected since about 2007... but I put nearly 10 years into collecting over 2000 ponies. I still have, oh, around 100 I guess. Some I still need to sell and some favorites I'm hanging on to.  I used to be a mod here and on another pony forum and helped run the US Pony Fair for the first 5 years.

I taught 1st grade for 7 years, 3rd grade last year and am taking the school year 2013-2014 off to homeschool my oldest daughter. I am also a group fitness instructor. I teach BodyCombat- k'yah! I am an exercise nut/gym rat. I also do a little art on the side, free lance artist if you will. My last commission I was paid in fudge, lol.

So, hello again!

Arts & Crafts Corral / A doodle for my daughter
« on: June 15, 2013, 03:26:17 PM »
My daughter, Ember asked me, "If you were a pony, who would you be?"
My answer, "Spottedslug."
Her reply, "Who is that? A background pony?"
My response: "I'll draw her for you!"

Can I just say how much joy it gives me that this little guy is still here?  :slug:

Introductions / The slug who doesn't actually collect ponies
« on: January 15, 2012, 05:59:34 AM »

Hello arena!
I wouldn't call myself a collector. I did have a massively massive collection a few years back and I still have a few left that I really should sell off. The problem is I hate selling!  :|  I also did keep about 100 of my favorites (variants and whatnot), but the collection I sold was well over 2000 ponies, including every G1 made in the US. Fun times while it lasted!


Anyway, now I have 2 little girls who love ponies and are very into the cartoon. I love that my almost 2 year old can identify all the characters, too cute! She says her favorite is "Ray-bow Gash" and my oldest likes Princess Celestia best.


The new forums look wonderful. Kudos to the mods! I know you guys work hard and it looks great (especially the me being able to login part!).
