I grew up in the 80s, and had 3 ponies that my dad brought me from his work-related trips to Canada and the USA: 2 Twice as Fancy (Dancing Butterflies and Up, Up And Away) and 1 Happy Tails (Tabby). Before going to University, I decided to give away all my toys, but as an adult I regret parting with some of my Barbies, with my collection of paper dolls and of course, my G1 Ponies.
One day I might try to get a few of the Twice and Fancy, because I think they're my favourite, but I am not collecting Ponies at the moment. I do enjoy learning about the different generations and best ways to take care and preserve or repair them.
I'm into the arts and I value all things that involve design and craftmanship, I think toys can be very beautiful objects that allow us to keep our imagination active.
Hope everyone gets to enjoy a peaceful Christmas and end of the year Holiday season. Best wishes and thank you for accepting me in the forum!
