Here is my first custom I ever had made - it was a G2 and I gave her as a gift to my swap partner. I named her Precious Swirls: One day I would like to recreate her for myself, with a little change in her design when it comes to hair - but I was short on Daiquiri Ice back then:

My grandfather fixed her, gluing her back together, but in truth, I don't have her anymore. I probably lost her and Rosette, during a move. I was really desperate to get her back and looking for her was actually what brought me to the Arena and the pony-collecting fandom
The Tropical ponies were the set I wanted to complete
the most (and that's coming from a 'gotta catch all of the G2's collector!).
And you know what? Almost all of those beautiful Ladies were gifts. Hula Hula is probably the most memorable addition to my collection - I've got her during the Hula Hula swap organized by clones_rebellion and my box was prepared by the sweet Sweet_Cicely. It was a brag to remember! Just look at all the things I've got:

It was my first swap and she made it such a great experience, I quickly got addicted to them.

I got her during a Halloween Swap that emery hosted and I was lucky to have beangrrrl as my partner, as she spoiled me absolutely rotten

But I wanted one that would have a meaning behind her - I desperately wanted to receive her in a swap. And it finally happened in a super amazing box I got from windsong! Not only Pina was absolutely lovely - all the gifts I received were kind of special to me, making it very memorable.
