Hello, decided to join so I have another source to keep up-to-date with all the latest pony news. I've missed out on a few of my favorites because I wasn't keeping track of release dates

I hope to avoid that from now on. I'm a pretty avid collector, I grew up hunting for them in yardsales and second-hand stores since my parents couldn't afford to buy them new at retail price. Unfortunately my original collection has been boxed up somewhere and I haven't been able to find them so I've basically had to start building my herd from scratch again.
I also enjoy customs and though I'm not particularly good at it myself (I do want to learn - I want to make MLP wedding cake toppers of my fiance and myself for my wedding) - I really admire what other people have done.
