Got my first G1 pony! (Sort of)

[sparkykandy]

My city had a local comic and pop culture expo today, and I went.  Imagine my surprise when I saw a vendor selling G1 and G3 ponies!  It was a small amount of ponies, and I didn't see the ponies I would have wanted (Wind Whistler, Posey, and/or Munchy). 

Moonstone, however, caught my eye.  She was 10 bucks and was in fairly good condition, and I felt that even if I ended up overpaying for her, it wouldn't be too bad.  I ended up getting her.

Unfortunately, it wasn't until I got home and took her out of the bag did I see the 2007 Hasbro stamp on her.  Turns out I bought the retro version of her. (Which probably means that I did indeed overpay for her.) Oh well.  (The good news about that is that I don't have to worry about upkeep since she's not very old.)

Below is a pic of her with some other goodies that I got:

Yay! G1s are my favorite. My city is having a con this weekend too. Hmmm. You're not in Canada, are you?

Congrats on your new pony! Sorry to hear that you over paid.

To Starfrey:  Nope.  U.S.  And it was an expo, rather than a con. Forgot to add that word.

To achab1984: Thanks!  I don't regret accidentally getting the retro version instead of the original, but I do regret overpaying for her. Oh well.  That's what I get for impulse buys!

We didn't get the Retro rainbows in my country. I still think she is a nice addition to your herd   Congrats

Lovely find! She's cute, even if you did overpay for her. The way I see it, if you get a steal for a pony later on it time, it sort of balances it out.

Nice finds! Even if it is not what you thought, Moonstone is still adorable
