hello
« on: January 07, 2015, 11:36:47 PM »
Hey every pony!

Im new here :) coming to you all the way from Singapore! If you don't know where it is, its in Asia. Wonderful place! Do come here for holidays as the weather is tropical all year round!

My obsession with ponies was back when I was a little girl. Times were tough back then and we couldn't make unnecessary purchases. So throughout my childhood, I would visit toystores and just look at the ponies, (they were selling G3 ponies) and I would know which were new and I told myself that one day I will be able to get them. I literally didn't own a single pony!

Then as I grew up, life got busy and I forgot about ponies for a while until a few years ago as I was walking by the recycling bin, I noticed that the bin was overflowing (they must have not cleared it because of holidays or something) and someone had left a bag of vintage toys beside the recycling bin and the thing that caught my eye was that there was a g3 cinnamon breeze pony's head sticking out of it. I got curious and checked out the toys but mostly they were McDonalds and other random toys (who knows they could have been valuable). But I saved cinnamon breeze from that bag. She was in very good condition and I recognized her immediately. She was my very first pony. I brought her home, washed her and displayed her. Im so proud of her because she started it all. And I got her for free in very good condition.

Then I decided to see what was happening with ponies and imagine my surprise when I saw g4 ponies being sold! I started watching the show and bought blind bags.

One day as I was scrolling ebay, I came across target exclusive pinkie pies boutique. She was in my 2 favourite colours-pink and black. I was in love.. Unfortunately we don't have target here so I had to import her, but it was worth it. She is soo beautiful I couldn't even open the box. She is ddisplayed in the box. Then I bought mane 6 simple equestria girls dolls and celestia doll with pony (because that celestia pony looked different and unique). I also bought fluttershy deluxe edition because her blue dress was gorgeous! Im just waiting for cadance doll to come out one day.

I wont say I am a very avid collector. I have a humble collection of ponies that I like. I buy ponies based on those I think look cool or if I have seen them in the show. And my collection has mainly g4 blindbag ponies and equestria girls.

I happened to glance at cinnamon breeze one day and I realized I missed my childhood g3 ponies. So it was a hunt on ebay for all those I loved. Once again I just bought a few, those I badly wanted as a kid. My favourite was periwinkle because of her gem.

I also found out that cinnamon breeze and periwinkle come in g4 blindbag size ponies and of course I bought them and display them side by side.

Mlp mechandise wise I have all mane 6 squishy pop ponies ( they did a really good job and really cute) and funko mystery mini black pinkie pie and black rainbow dash. I liked how the black made thier manes stick out. I havent decided if I am going to the rest of the black mane 6 but probably not as I don't buy unnecessary stuff haha.

And I wanted to find collectors in Singapore but there was hardly any mlp group here. So I searched online and came across mlparena and mlptp.

It was at the trading post that I got to know more about mlps(while waiting for my arena account to be rregistered).There were g1 &g2 as well. And suddenly I fell in love with g1 ponies. I also found out about mlp and all those acronyms that people use to describe ponies. Im proud to say my humble g1 collection has pony bride and bridal beauty with all accessories, newborn ponies big top and toppy, sweetheart sisters rosey love, flower dream & dainty with accessories, cuddles and her buggy and accessories, and teeny tiny ponies, so soft cupcake and truly just to name a few. Its not much but as mentioned before I only buy ponies I like.

Now that im at the arena, I hope to find more lovable ponies to add to my collection and even though im no longer a kid, these ponies bring me back to my childhood and remind me that all good things come to.those who wait and I shouldn't be sad if things dont go my way because you never know what the future holds. :)

Have a great day everyone! :D

Welcome to the Arena.

Wow.  What a great introduction you wrote.  This is an awesome place to learn all about ponies - and to talk about your obsession with a whole forum of people who totally get it, lol.  I bet your house will be over-run with ponies in no time, lol :)

Enjoy the forums :frolic:
