Thank you everyone, you are so helpful!  Is there anyway someone can move this thread to the other board or shall I just repost?

Ps. I will get some new pictures to give an idea of scale tomorrow, my phone has died at the moment.

Hello!  I'm new and from Cornwall too.x

Thanks for all the pms & replies.  I have won/bidding on some lots on ebay so will wait to see them finish/arrive and then will check my list against all your offers so I don't end up with duplicates.x

Hi, just putting out the feelers to see if anyone would be interested in trading in a pony from my wish list for a made to order fully customised My Little Pony rosette. 
They can be made to include and printing/wording on the tails and colour printed button badge centre (you can provide the artwork if you wish) and made using any colours you wish.
They retail at £5 each for the smaller ones or £8 for the big ones to give you an idea on value.

See my avatar to give you an idea on designs, they are all professionally made as this is what I do for a living.x

They make great birthday gifts or an alternative to a birthday card or just for personal use.

My wish list can be found here -

So I've gradually been digging out my old pony collection and I seem to have 2 twinkle the cats and one if them has all black markings and the other one has black eyes and whiskers and dark orange stripes and nose.
Is this one just sun faded/discolouration or are there variations?  Thank you. X

Hello, so glad to have found a place to nurture my pony loving obsession!

My love for MLP began when I was around 3 or 4 years old and my first ever pony was Butterscotch.  Playing with and watching My Little Pony are my happiest childhood memories.

I have a few of my original ponies plus a couple I have picked up over the years but have decided to indulge my passion and become more serious about collecting so will no doubt be asking dumb and annoying questions so please forgive me.

Just a bit about me, I am based in Cornwall, UK and have 3 boys aged 3, 7 & 9 and also have 3 'real' ponies!  I run a rosette making business supplying ribbons to horse & dog shows and also produce custom rosettes & ribbons.

Thanks for listening to my mad ramblings, I don't get a chance to talk ponies much living with 4 members of the male species!
