Hello.
I'm Dara/Arashi842, a newly 38 soon to be mom for the first time. I have always loved ponies, couldn't start collecting really until I got out of school and got a job so I could hunt down the things that I wanted to have.
G1 is pretty much my fav, but I figure that is standard. I have a lot of my actual childhood ponies, I have the series on dvd, and some prides of my collection are finally getting some G1 cels (Escape from Catrina) http://arashi842.rubberslug.com/gallery/master_query.asp?SeriesID=33016&Page=1. G2 I never really liked, G3 animation I did not like, but the G3 ponies were close to G1s similarly for the most part, so I have a bunch of those I collected. Then G4 came along. FiM. I was wary at first, but it sucked me in. I did collect a lot of the blind bag types of ponies and got a few of the mane 6 and princesses MIB.
With some changes in my life, need to condense/complete some of my collection, which is prompting my officially joining per say. I do have a lot of collections...Jem, She-Ra, Monster High, a few various others.
I have traded and sold some of my collections before, but it has been a while. Most of my feedback is from a buyer perspective or from when I have sold Jem stuff.
I am excited to see others' collections, maybe get a few things I am missing, but also to pair down my own collection a bit. Talk to you all soon, hopefully.
