First Nirvana Brag!!!

[ghouldilocks]

Seashell and Bubbles are two ponies that I had always wanted but never got...I love everything about them. When I saw that they were listed together on eBay at a reasonable starting bid, I knew I had to keep an eye on that auction. When I saw that they were not only Seashell and Bubbles, but ITALIAN Seashell and Bubbles, that made me even more determined to have them in my collection. 

I spent two years in Sicily as a kid in the '90s and NEVER realized that MLP was a thing there, so I'm not sure if they were just not terribly common, or if they never quite made it into Sicilian stores, or if we just never went in the right stores to come across them, but Sicily was a HUGE part of my life and my experiences there really shaped who I became and what I have chosen to do with my life. Because of these connections, I feel so beyond thrilled that these two are not only my first of the Italians, but my very first Nirvanas.

I'm always in such a good mood when I get out of acting class, and seeing the package with these two waiting to be opened when I got home has just put me over the moon...I really couldn't be happier to have them.

Congrats!  These gals are some of my favorites too.  I love that this version has freckles instead of the blaze.  They look great!

Thanks! Yeah, the blaze is part of what drew me in with the "regular" Seashell and Bubbles as part of their charm (that and the seated pose is so cute!)...but I've always had a real soft spot for the freckled ponies as well! My mom rolled her eyes when I showed them to her, but she agreed it's interesting that they're actually Italian.
