hello from WA with sibling in MN!

[MoondancerMilkyWay]

Our collection spans far and wide!!

Hello!
my name is MoondancerMilkyWay, but you may call me Smash.
I'm a child of the 80's and of course love PONIES! and other 80's collectibles, but nothing warms my heart more than ponies.

I live in Washington State and work full time. The most important people in my life are my cat (on my lap now) and my puppy (laying down close to me)

My sister and I have been collecting ponies for as long as I can remember starting with G1. I remember the G2 ponies and how excited we were at first, then not so much shortly thereafter. So when FiM came out I was skeptical, but one episode turned me around and now I can't get enough!! My sister has the bulk of the collection, I do have many blind bag ponies from waves 7 through current and many blind box ponies as well.

What made me want to collect ponies? OCD.

I am really looking forward to meeting everyone and swapping stories and helpful hints and ponies of course!!

Thank you for having me!!

Hi and welcome

It's nice you have your sister who shares your love of ponies. I have fond memories of playing ponies with my best friend when I was younger. 

I look forward to seeing you around the forums

Welcome to the Arena! Thats so lovely that you can share your collection and your pony interests with your sister Is she also a member here?

[MoondancerMilkyWay]

Hello! My sister is ponyqueen and she is the one who suggested I come here! It's been fun helping her navigate forums since I've been a part of many and this is I think her first.

My fav gen is still gen 1 and from the cartoons I love wind whistler, but when I played it was baby moondancer and her adopted mom milky way (hence the name)
I do love fim and gen 4, I love Fluttershy the most but found I'm more like twilight sparkle.
But really who can choose a fav?

Thank you for the warm welcome! I hope to get in on the fun with trades and everything else very soon! I'm headed to a pony/lps meet in a couple hours! Very excited!

Thats great, i had many adopted siblings and parents too in my plays as a kid.

Haha, it is hard to choose one fave. I hope you had fun at the meeting.

[MoondancerMilkyWay]

The meeting was so very much fun!!! I am looking forward to the Pony meet this summer as well!!

Thank you everyone for such a warm welcome!!

Hello! Welcome! I'm you're sister! Hehehe!

These are my friends in the Arena, they're all super nice and helpful and supportive and smart. Looking forward to filling out our collection, helping others to do the same, and generally being immersed in the MLP world as much as possible. I spend most of my time in the Corral with the other ponies, but sometimes I like to go Off Topic or to the Brag Arena to hear new stories. See you around!

[MoondancerMilkyWay]

Thanks Sister! I'll go head out to the other areas and talk to some more wonderful people!!

Hi MoondancerMilkyWay! I'm also and 80s baby with memories of the G1 days. You're so lucky to have a sister to collect with!!

[MoondancerMilkyWay]

Hi candiedapples!!! a pleasure to meet you!
Indeed! She manages the collection well. I don't know where I'd be without her! So many of my things (the Ponies were spared) were destroyed/given away/sold without my knowledge or consent by the people who owned the storage unit they were in. I have a few things, but it's really awesome having someone so close to remember and collect with.

Welcome to the Arena.  That is super you have your sister to share with.  My daughter and I collect together, so yes it is so much better when you have some to share it with.
