Appreciation for Hasbro
« on: August 13, 2013, 09:56:38 PM »
I have not been around that often as of late, which made me very sad because I miss my ponies! We're in the process of selling out house and right now it's in constant showing mode, with people coming and going. I can't wait until we find a new place because as much as I love this house and don't want to move, it's getting crazy not having all my stuff with me.

Anyway!

I was at Target the other day grocery shopping and decided to go down the pony aisle. Last time I did this the only new stuff was the masquerade mask set. This time I got a huge grin on my face when dozens of Pinkie Pie's were staring back at me! I love Pinkie Pie (the G4 version anyway) and have a bit of an army of stuff that has to do with her. When the "black tie" Pinkies were first popping up on taobao I wanted one so badly... and then more and more types were released and I just knew there was no way Hasbro would release all of them. I was sad when the prices were getting jacked up by sellers who bought out lots of them, and I just didn't have the funds after the Fair to buy them myself.
Fast forward to the other day and well, I'm so appreciative of Hasbro right now because they released ALL of those Pinkie Pies! It made me so very happy, and I managed to bring home Glitter Pinkie and Wysteria. I'll wait until some of the other sets go on sale because they're more expensive, but seriously it was just amazing to see them all there.

I know so many people complain about what Hasbro doesn't do, but on the grand scale they do a whole lot of "yay"! It never ceases to amaze me how happy a little plastic pony can make me <3

I'm not picky about my ponies :P as long as I get em, I don't care what kinda factory flaws they have  ^.^
But other peoples gotta keep in mind that MLP figures are massed produced, and not hand crafted "with care" (for lack off a better word) by factory workers to come out with the perfect MLP figure  ;)
Oh no!

Ponies always make me happy. <3 I have depression, so it's nice to be around something that fills me with joy. :3

I'm just glad Hasbro still makes ponies. I don't care for show accuracy or anything. I've always been into the toys more than the TV stuff. ^.^

Lol I love that story. I will admit that as more and more of then kept turning up on Taobao I was worried some would be tests and only one of them would get released - I am so pleased it was not the case. I love goth Pinkie in all her sizes and releases.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

I am very happy that they are still making ponies. There will always be little girls and boys that will like ponies. I hope they don't ever stop. I think that it will come someday, but we will not think about that right now.

Congrats on getting them all and its cool to see that they all did come out :)

Good for you for being so positive! I'm not a Pinkie fan or a fan of repeat ponies so I, on the other hand, don't have much praise for Hasbro, other than the fact with I happy with how, if you buy one of their many flawed ponies and contact them through their website, they will send you a replacement pony haha!

I am in appreciation of Hasbro for all the lovely ponies they brought me through the 80s and 90s :) Can't ask for too much more than that!
