I thought it was about time I did a little update of some recent finds that I've come to own!

...because I'm going to University this year, I've been cutting back on my pony finds due to lack of storage.  But I couldn't resist to take these two girlies home!

The first girl is Shady! I recently visited a friend's house and when I went to use the bathroom, to my shock and horror - Shady was being used as a bath toy!:faint: Her hair was all tangled and when I shaken her she was full of water.
I spoke to my friend's Mum about the pony and she told me it was one of her ponies when she was a kid, and she just put it in the bath for her youngest daughter to play with. I explained that I was a collector, and she was delighted! She told me I could take Shady home if I wished..and of course, I did!
But I decided to give one of my G3 ponies to the daughter as a replacement, and she said the G3 was a lot prettier than Shady! (Of course I disagree.. )
So now she's home with me all drained of water!

The next girl I got was Chatterbox!
I was doing my usual hunt at a local carboot sale, scouring for ponies..when I came across this little darling! I'd never heard of the Sweet Talkin' ponies before, but I instantly fell in love with her! I wish they made more ponies in such an animated pose. I asked the man at the stall how much he wanted for her, and I got her for 50p!
When I got home I was about to give her a bubbly bath when I realised she had a speaker in her tummy. I then began to press around to see if she said anything..and to my suprise she did! She speaks very loudly and with a very girly voice. It was as if she was brand new!

My local Tesco was full to the brim of clearance stuff, and to my suprise there was two G4's on the shelf for £1.50 each! The boxes were torn to shreds but the ponies were in perfect condition - so now I own my first two G4s, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy!

So here is the reason why I called this a BIG Brag..

If you're a Pokemon or Squirtle fan, hold onto your seats...
I won this amazing Squirtle plushie at the same carboot sale, but something is a little different about this plushie..

HE'S FRICKIN HUGE!

So that's my little brag, if anyone could be a star and help me PC on Chatterbox and the Squirtle that would be great.
The big Squirtle Plushie is for sale! If anyone is interested please drop me a message about offers!!

I don't really understand why they feel the need to pack away ALL of your stuff.......why can't the poor ponies stay out!!?? Growing up doesn't mean you have to get rid of your collection.

They say the only reason they're packing my stuff and ponies is because it's going to gather dust. Which makes sense because my room is just full of stuff.
I don't expect them to clean/dust for me because there is ALOT of stuff.

Probably my most fond memory in all my years of collecting is finding my first G1, Snuzzle.
I'd just moved down south into Wiltshire, and me and my family were having a pretty rough time with stuff. Family issues, all that kinda stuff.
So when me and my Mum went into our local town one day - I spotted Snuzzle sitting in a charity shop window with a hot pink sticker on her: marking her £2.50.
Now at the time - we were suffering a lot of money issues, so my Mum told me I couldn't get her simply because she couldn't afford it.
Of course - little me was heart broken.
I guess I just didn't understand the money issue at the time, but Snuzzle never left my mind.
A couple of months later - our problems were beginning to get better. Money was better and family issues were starting to fade away.
So when I came home from school one day, my Mum treated me to something special..
Snuzzle!
Saying I was over the moon wouldn't even describe how I felt when she handed her to me.
It was a special moment, although Snuzzle is the reason I'm into MLP collecting - just knowing my Mum had remembered about Snuzzle all those months later makes my heart all warm.
And here she is - 7 years later~

I think something fancy would be a nice new take on the Mane 6. (I don't know much about FiM so my apologies if my idea sounds repeated! )

I think having something like a Princess Ball themed set would be really nice. They'd all be wearing ball gowns featuring their colours and symbols - perhaps looking a bit like this..

...and they would come with matching crowns/flower garlands.
Perhaps they would release special's - like Celestia or Candace.
It could be called something like "The Sweetie Belle Ball" where there is a small story about the reason behind the ball, and perhaps a small children's book illustrating all the issues leading up to the ball finally happening.
I dunno..I just thought that'd be cute.

I just wanted to share how much my G1 Collection has grown since I first started collecting.
I started off with three G1s - Applejack, Bluebelle and Snuzzle..and since then..

My collection has gotten just a little bit bigger!
