Gift from a friend :)
« on: July 18, 2012, 11:44:28 AM »
One of my sweetest friends came up to me this Monday and told me she had a surprise for me.

The surprise turned out to be five near-mint G3s from the Core 7 Anniversary Inspirational Words Set she had found at a garage sale!!!  :shocked:

Rainbow Dash, Toola Roola, Cheerilee, Starsong, and Sweetie Belle! I don't have pics just now (I have yet to clean some of them), but I'll try to remember to post them later. :)

Besides a couple of minor (probably cleanable) scuff marks, their hair is silky and symbols barely rubbed.

The funny thing is, just a couple months ago, this was my dream set. I can't say these girls are my grails (I'm just dying for more G1s), but I am certainly thrilled to have them in my herd! I am especially thankful to have Toola Roola (because I'm an artist), and Sweetie Belle and Starsong.

For a few years now I've had a story brewing (set in my imaginary Ponyland my cousin and I invented) about a legendary pony (the black Art Pony; I call her Mysteria) who lives on the peak of Mount Unicorn, and who had two daughters (Belle and Starsong). In my and my cousin's stories, the two royal lines of ponies (the pegasi and unicorns) were always a certain color (pegasi white and unicorns in the range of pinks and purples). The funny thing was, once Belle and Starsong were released, my cousin and I were surprised to see they were opposite of the colors we originally had set. So I built a story around them. :)

The reason I was so glad to have these two girls is that I hadn't had any full-size versions of them before, and now I have the whole legendary family!  ^.^

I just love all these ponies' extravagant designs--they're so beautiful! Now I'm on a mission to hunt down Pinkie and Scootaloo...I can't wait to own the full set!

My herd total now comes to 158...if I purchase the two girls mentioned above, I'll have an even 160!

Wishlist - I'm back on (semi-) active buying again... can't buy everything on my wish list all at once (yay, back-to-school and tuition fees), but I am still looking to plump up my collection a bit more: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,380638.0.html
