Show me ponies?

[Esbayne]

I'm in the mood to see your ponies! Especially if they have interesting back stories or personalities or anything like that! Favourite ponies, grails you FINALLY acquired, your pony families, customs, rare or expensive ponies, anything!
I think I'll post some of mine in a bit too, I'm eating a sandwich currently though, lol. 

I'd love to see them!

I said I would post pictures of my collection, so here are some pictures of them as a collective. The shelf they are on in these is in my sister's room now, my closet is full of a shelf of dragons, beer posters, and that box of legos/hotwheels/other things in the corner of these photos. I'd love to keep them all on display like this, especially in my closet where I can close them out at times when I want to, but it kind of displaces the shelf for some of my dragons so I can't really keep it up, but I've been toying with ideas on how to counter that.

These are pretty bad/blurry pictures so I may take individual photos of my favourites later, but not all of them, there's too many, lol.

I don't like sorting by generation usually but I just did it as a quick set up to see how they'd look on the shelf in here.

Here is their current living space, it's typically at the top of my closet... Heh, poor ponies.

[Strawberry Swirl]

Wellllll.....

Last weekend I managed to get my hooves on 47 ponies! Very expensive, but so worth it.
I was going to keep quiet until I washed + photographed them all better. So you can see 'em up close!

I'm still gonna make a huge brag post of my own once I'm all done but you seem worthy to see one of my favorite finds!

I've been looking for this girl for like, EVER. She's so pretty and the one I got had so much of her original curl left!
Unfortunately, she was also absurdly filthy. I kept pulling gross things out of her hair, it was terrible!! 

So, I had to comb out all of her original curls to get her clean. But guess what?
I got me some Q-tips, and some bobby pins...and look at her now!!

Isn't she beautiful? I'm so proud of her! She's currently hanging out on the front shelf I keep all my favorites on.
Ahhhh! Those CURLS!!! 

[Esbayne]

She's GORGEOUS! That hair, too! Major congrats!

Here is my childhood ponies. They have been through some awesome adventures with me . My favorite was Melody(and still is beside Fizzy and Gusty). I also got bunch of fakies. With them I did make family groups. Rosette was a boy and with Tootie tails, they got bunch of fakie babies. Seawave got Suprise and twins as babies. She was single mom. Streaky and Twirler (was a boy) got Moondancer baby. Melody and Twisty tail (boy) was a item. Their babies were cotton candy and Stargaze. Sundances were twin sisters. Strawberry suprise did take care Cuddles and her grandma was Seashell. They are ponies that will not ever sell, they are too dear to me^^.

And I just rehaired my Streaky. She got more experience about hair cutting when I played hair salon... Now that I'm older I decided she deserves gorgeous hair. I went little bit overboard how much hair I did put in her head.. and curls did go wild

My other herd does not have that much of story but their all photos can be found here (expect the newest ones) http://s10.photobucket.com/user/poninpomppu/library/my%20little%20pony?sort=3&page=1

[Strawberry Swirl]

You had Melody as a child??? Ahhh! You're the best!
(also, what a pretty Streaky!)

[Miniature Sheep]

Well, I managed to get the batteries in my camera to cooperate long enough to get an up-to-date visual on my herd (and the lighting is awful because of the desk lamp) so... here we go!

The most recent addition, Sweet Notes! I'd been umming and arring for almost a year and am very glad that I decided to get her; she looks fabulous in person, especially with all the bright colours in my digs!

And now for all the G1s together! Most of these were intended to replace my old childhood ponies but there are also some who stole my heart as first sight as well. My childhood Posey was the one who went on adventures with me (even to school on one occasion!) and the replacement is still my favourite.

And the G2s and G3s! The miniature Silver Swirl is another replacement for a childhood pony; it's a very nice feeling having him back after all those years being convinced that I'd never see him again!

The vast majority of my ponies have been named after characters from some open-ended project I've been working on for about 7 years now, as their designs remind me of certain symbols and themes that I associate with them. There is quite a broad range of personalities among them but going into that would take forever.

She has a gorgeous mane.  The color scheme reminds me of Celestia. Guess that's one more G3 added to the want list.

Here's my favorite pony, I just call him Mohawk

I got him cheaply on ebay - bought him because he came with his bandanna (which he generously donated to another Barnacle.) I had intended to rehair him but then there was a halloween photo contest here on the arena so I decided to dress him up. He's stayed like this ever since. He's my absolute favorite. I treasure him.

Here's the "centerpiece" of my collection. This shelf contains my Minty collection and my Crystal Fair 2014 -convention memorabilia. There is a reason, why both sub collections are on this shelf, it's because they are interlinked.

Last July here in Finland we had the Crystal Fair 2014 -convention and one of the guests of honor was Tabitha st. Germaine (voice of Minty). I got her to autograph my copy of "A Very Minty Christmas" DVD and so that that DVD became a part of convention memorabilia and very important part of my Minty collection (as well as my whole collection). Also one very dear piece of my collection is that picture of Tabitha, me and Anneli Heed (one of the voice actresses from the Swedish FiM dub), not to forget that Equestria Girls Blu-Ray signed by Tabitha, Anneli and Daniel Ingram (he was also one of the guests of honor at Crystal Fair 2014).

Crystal Fair memorabilia itself, even without those items previously mentioned, will always remind me of one of the best weekends I've ever had (also the most expensive one I've ever had).

These are all wonderful ponies, I love hearing your stories about them too! Thank you for showing me!
That Barnacle is perfect, by the way!

[QueenStarglow]

I love these stories!!!! Stunning pictures as well

[scarletmoon]

I dont think I have stories for now,

 I always liked G1 but G3 were fabuluos,. With a lot of characters, with different symbols, colors and cloths these were some ponies I have got since a couple of years of collecting,

ones I got from my aunt in the USA, that sent for Christmas,  others from making some kind of trades with the arena people, others on pony hunting across the city, these are some of my favorites cause I consider are not usual in my collection, I always wanted or liked different kind of ponies,

My favorite set of all!

As for a special unique pony, it would have to be my rehaired TAF Yum Yum. I had a great time turning her into a Candy Cane pony... she even smells sweet.
