I didn't get to the bookstore on day one, but apparently it was so crowded, con security had to step in and organize the line. Picked up a handful on day two, and intend to buy more from Lulu and the Ministry of Image (Based in Russia, includes english translations. Shipping's pricey and long though).

Finished uploading the rest of my pics from that trip.

Some highlights:
Seafood Cioppino at Gordon Ramsays restautant. I didn't get any steak, I live in the middle of Tennessee, and I reckon if I looked hard enough I could find some quality beef. Seafood on the other hand, not so much. Had some truffle fries and toffee cake as well, were delicious. About went back to my hotel room in a food coma.

Lets start things off with a Muffin pony mailmare pillowcase

Followed by some books, a Blackjack plush and print (Signed by Somber, author of Project Horizons)
Some art by the IDW comics crew. Signed up for a VIP dinner with Andy Price, Tony Fleecs, Sara Richard and Trish Forstner. Ended up not going, since there was a Roast M.A. Larson panel that I didn't want to miss. Was able to pick up the loot attendees to that dinner get: A rare art book, and a commission done by all four artists. Went with Best Mom.
Also got a couple commissions from Andy Price: That larger sketch features Windy Whistles cuddling a tiny Rainbow Dash, and the other one off to the side (Harder to see unfortunately) features Bob Ross holding Fluttershy.

Even more books. Would've gotten more, but was only able to get to the Bronycon Bookstore in the vendor hall was on day 2, they were sold out of a lot.

And the best part, plushies:

AJ by EpicRainbowCrafts, with faux fur mane/tail. Sea Sailor, the Seabronies mascot. And Littlepip, Calamity and Velvet Remedy (Fallout Equestria OCs) done by Kiashone

And the best thing I bought this year

A 36" long Applejack by QTpony. Comes with a hat, magnetic apple, and removable socks. Adorable. Somehow I got the first spot in the day one vendor hall line. QTpony's plushies sold out fast.

Bad news is, I flew to Baltimore this year, and there's no way I'm packing that AJ plush on a plane. Thankfully a friend who drove up brought a bodybag with him, and was able to smuggle said plush back to Tennessee. I'll be picking it up later.

Got some more pics to upload later, I'll post em shortly after

Found her at an antique mall. The variation with movable back legs. Shame she has no eye crystals

My sisters room is 900+ miles away... I think I can squeeze one or two more in there somewhere. Though Bronycon's next week and I usually shell out a couple hundred on seafood in Baltimore. And I"ve already preordered a high quality Applejack plush, and intend to go nearly broke in the vendor hall. All the books!

Nice collection! Is that a Soda Sippin pony I spy?

Yeah it is. Previous owner braided her tail, though there still seems to be some original curl

That's all the shelf space I have for G1's. I can only go up so far, there's a pack of the Worlds Smallest ponies sitting on top of the ST Applejack.

Luckily there's not much left that I don't have at this antique mall I frequent. Just a baby Firefly and a bait condition Lickety Split.

Got some room for G3's still, but haven't seen much of those in the wild.

Got a few more issues.

Was browsing artbeads, couldn't find any pointback swarovski crystals, only flatback. Does that make a difference?
And what about specific color? Found a few variations of flatback white crystals.

Only need two crystals for my Dainty Dove, and one for Ivy.

Thanks Y'all. Still a handful of MLP toys at that antique mall. G1 show stable, TE Sweet Stuff, handful of Fireflies and babies. A Lickety Split that comes in both chocolate and vanilla flavors (One side is horribly sunburnt/grilled). Some G3's, mostly Pinkie and Rainbow Dash. Saw a G4 FS Twilight, I think she had those Crystal Empire toyline eyes, and a FS rainbow power Rarity.

Went back yesterday. Found Heart Throb, baby Surprise and... can't find the other blue pony on strawberryreef or my  little wiki. One of her symbols has a clown face, and the other has a different figure on it. And a smaller mirror symbol on one cheek.

And are those MLP accessories? If so, which pony do they go with?

On another note, what's with this dog? Something MLP related or from another Hasbro show/toyline?

My nearest Target is 70ish miles away, I'd spend that much or more on gas just getting there and back. That and I don't mind spending a bit more on convenience.

Is that junk near her mane something I should be worried about? In terms of quarantining a pony or not. Managed to scrub more of it out with toothpaste and a fingernail, still some left.

Five at once, eh? Might have to pass, only have room for one. If y'all end up selling one at a time, let me know.

Flashlight in one hand, camera in the other. Hard to take a pic inside a pony... but there's rust and other scum everywhere. Had a G3 Scootaloo a couple months ago that was worse. Gonna take a while to clean her out.

About the only thing I couldn't remove, aside from some scum in her rear legs

Reckon I"ll pick them up next time. Already have around four dozen G1's, not a whole lot of room left for ponies, could squeeze some accessories in somewhere.
