My MIP G1 Ponies- finally out of storage and into the light!

I think flailing is the appropriate response, they're all so beautiful!

It makes me imagine what a MLP Museum with a complete collection would look like, just imagine an entire wall covered with MOC ponies, I think I'd cry.

Congrats on Starflash! She is fantastic!

So cute, congrats

Amazing collection! I also much prefer UK carded/boxed MIP ponies, brings back fond memories of making the tough decision on which pony to pick whist shopping in Woolworthes back in the day.

P.S I am so completely jelly over your MIB UK Baby Lickity Split, she is the last one I need to complete that set MIB. If you ever decide to sell/trade please let me know as I have several UK MOC/MIB ponies that I'm sure I could tempt you with!

I am drooling over your pictures.  You have some gorgeous ponies!  I love collecting the early ponies MOC.  I am missing Surprise and am super jealous of yours!  Also I love UK Shady.  I've never seen her MOC before.  She looks amazing!

WOW! You have an awesome pony collection!!!! Congrats on them all

Ah, that's so cool! I would really love to see pictures of your collection sometime!

I haven't yet been persuaded to part with any of my UK mip ponies since I'm a pretty sentimental person and the early ones especialky conjure up those memories of childhood. You're real lucky having the others xD.

@Cricket, a bunch of them came up on ebay about ten years ago -Gusty, North Star etc. The card I have is in French and they are called Movie Star Ponies but although the UK card is the same, we don't seem to use that set name which I think is a shame. The card is definitely one of the prettiest...

Amazing Collection
awesome to see so many mint ponies
Congrats on the latest addition !

[CoonhoundBetty]

Whoa, that is an awesome brag! Look at all the goodies

I love seeing MIP ponies for the nostalgia

[shelti]

OMG 
That had to be so much fun and to die for.
And I am sure there were some forgotten treasures too.

What a cool collecting goal, to try and get your childhood ponies MIP! Good luck, and great find with Starflash!

[Taffeta]

Thank you everyone!

It is a nice goal but unfortunately I am cursed with the fact 3 of my childhood ponies are Mountain Boys...sigh xD. And looking for them in the right package is also hard since, logically, most Mip ponies around are on US card...

Definitely did find some treasures going through, though. I hadn't realised I aleeady had Sunshower and so only need Ripple, rather than both.

That is one crazy awesome collection!

[Artemesia's Garden]

Thank you so much for sharing these! I'm also a UK collector interested in UK merchandise and leaflets, back cards etc. It's great to see how so many UK releases would have looked new.  I especially like the night time scene on one of the ponywear cards you posted towards the end, it's so cute!!

[Taffeta]

Ah, that's neat (Do you have all of the inserts? I may have doubles of some of them if you don't).

It's so much harder to find the UK/Euro packages for the early ones. :-/ It makes me regret especially having UK exclusive ponies as a kid, too ><. My wallet cannot cope ><.
