Pony Corral / Re: 7 Deadly Sins of MLP Collectors

What a great game! I need to put a bit of thought into this. 
Greed: Your most expensive and least expensive figure.
My most expensive figure must be the wishing well, and the least expensive get to be one of my fakies that I usually get for half a dollar or so.

Wrath: A figure you have a love-hate relationship with.
That's got to be my scandinavian exclusive porcelain Firefly! She's so rare and unique but she's also... ugly to me. I started collecting the porcelains because their soft pastel apperance and she can't really compete with the others on that. She's just not well made or beautiful - she's just rare. I've been considering seller her and I most likely will some day. But at the same time, if I do that I'll probably never own her again since I've ever just seen this one.

Gluttony: This could be splurging, such as a big lot/trade, going wild at a store/online/toy convention. Or a character you army build.
I wish I had some real pony-gluttony in me. But even when I was into collecting the most I never had tons of ponies - I'm just to careful (or cowardly) with what I buy. But I do have one exeption - My soma collection. I could collect thousands of these and never be satisfied!

Lust: One of your most favorite figs ever and why.
Applejack! She was my first porcelain and my heart just skips a beat when I hold her - she's truly the pearl of my collection and I can clearly recall the moment I found her.

Pride: A figure you are proud of. This could be a reward for a real life goal, a custom/commission, one you scrimped and saved for, one you got for a killer deal, a minty fig, a rare variant or mib etc.
It's Applejack
I did get her for a killer deal - less than a dollar at a second hand store.
Sloth: Something you don't like doing, or are lazy about. i.e dusting, spa days, restoration, cataloguing.
Styling. I'm okay as far as straw curls go but I'm not really good at it. So I prefer collecting hair-free ponies
Envy: Ultimate Grail. Perhaps an unobtainable one.
I saw a pocelain I've never seen before go on an online auction-site. And I was about to bid on it but I fell asleep
I'll probably never get a chance on that one again and I'll never know if it was a custom or a real deal.
