Ponies in Cellophane

[medleymayhem]

Update 6/16: Display!

I've finally put a little effort into my pony collecting and put my G1s/ one G2 into a display thing. As per, my phone camera is sorely inadequate. But it does give a general idea as to what it looks like.

I might try to sell a couple of ponies that I don't feel much for. I've become more focused in my older age, I think.

Original 6/11:

 

Hey guys. Guess what.

I found them. I found ponies in the wild. I have NEVER EVER EVER found ponies in the wild in all my history of collecting. Not like this.

They were found at my local comic shop. I KNOW, RIGHT!

I couldn't afford all of them (though I hated leaving those that I did behind) and were pretty sure they were overpriced (but could not let this opportunity to buy wild ponies escape!) so I got ones that I wanted and didn't give a thought to what they were worth outside of their little cellophane bags.

They are flawed in all the ways G1s are normally flawed. But I felt great pride in finding them! The clerk experience was...interesting. I tried getting them for a lot price but they couldn't do that. So without further ado, crappy phone pictures!!!!

And this last picture is the modest collection of my adult G1s.

p.s. Now I can stop being bitterly jealous at everyone else's brags.

Lovely ponies!  With ribbons, brushes and all!    That's so exciting.    How many did you leave behind?

I left behind 3 adults and a baby.

-A rough looking Sunbeam
-Two princess ponies (which I know are occasionally sought after though I was never a fan)
-And a baby I didn't identify (for fear of wanting even more)

Keep up the faith! Keep peeking and looking. Every once and a while someone will be like, "What's this box? Oh yeah, ponies! ...Huh. Guess I don't need these anymore."

Sweet Pop and Twilight ! What an amazing find. I'd be over the moon if I found some like that in a thrift store or swapmeet or yard sale. Congratulations. Your collection is lovely

They look very nice. Congrats on finding ponies in the wild! If I saw ponies in person, I would pay over the normal price, too, because it would be so exciting finding G1s in person.
