Hi,
I just recently started collecting G1 My Little Ponies in December. I used to love them as a child in the 80s, but after collecting nearly all the play sets and about 200 ponies, I lost all of them in a house move in the early 90s  I often thought about starting again with my collection, but I never had the heart... that is until now.
I changed my mind because my 2yo daughter is already showing signs of loving to collect her favourite toys and her enthusiasm has reminded me of how much I miss my childhood toys.

Because I rarely had new ponies as a child I now love buying tatty old BAIT ponies and restoring them as best I can. It’s turning out to more involved than I expected so one of my Instagram followers suggested I join this forum because there is such a wealth of knowledge and experience here... hopefully one day I’ll be able to add to it
