Please allow me to introduce myself...
« on: July 22, 2015, 01:02:55 PM »
Pleased to meet you!

I'm a long time pony collector/enthusiast from Canada.

I've been a pony fan my entire life, but as a silly young child I sold/gave away all my original ponies (save for one)! Now I'm trying to get everything back (and then some)!

I am currently collecting all generations of ponies, but I am fondest of the G3s and am trying to fill in my collection fully. I'm also beginning to dabble in restoration and customization, since I can't leave any ponies behind in shops no matter how sad their condition. I have plenty of ponies for trading! I'm looking forward to joining in the community here!

Welcome to the Arena

I think there are a great number of us (myself included) who sold most of our childhood ponies and regretted it later on.  I hope you have a wonderful time trying to relocate and connect with your lost pony herd :frolic:

Hi, hornetcharmer! Welcome to the Arena!

That's a story familiar to many around here, but ponies are thankfully replaceable! I also enjoy fixing and customizing the more damaged ponies I find. I wish you the best in recollecting your old favorites, enjoy the forums!

I wish I still had my childhood ponies too, but the good news is that the arena is a great place to find them again, and find hundreds more you'll love too :) Have fun!

I'm sure you'll find the missing ponies from here, and then some ;) Welcome and have fun!

Welcome to the arena :)  I did the same also when I was younger, I wish that I never did it!

Lucky! Out of all my ponies I'm not even sure why I chose him to keep. I'm glad I did but I cringe when I remember the ones I gave up. It's sad to hear that a lot of people are in the same boat. I guess we all do crazy things in our youth. :) But it's a good way to connect with other collectors too.

Welcome to the Arena! As kids, I don't think we always understand sentimentality and how we might feel in the future.  I think I just thought that I needed to get more grown up toys/activities.  But, now we can all bring some of our childhood back by collecting ponies :)

Welcome to the Arena! You did hold on to a pretty adorable little pony though - I love Lucky! Part of the fun of collecting is tracking all those old favourites down again :)

I hope you have a great time here.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!
