Although I only became a collector in 2013, I've always liked G3 as I had them when I was a kid. I like G1 since I found three baby ponies in a charity shop. Not a huge fan of G2, but that might change if I get my hands on some!
How Did You Start Getting Into Other Gens?
I never got into G2. I got into G3 because I was obsessed with the novelty of being able to buy a MLP in the store again. IIRC my first reaction to the G3 prototype unveiling was that they looked like anime alien ponies. But that didn't stop me and I soon fell in love. G4s are coming. Mostly because they didn't go away. Haha. I'm starting to gain an appreciate for them.
I started with G1 and the others just crept into my life. They'll do that if you're not careful.
QuoteHow Did You Start Getting Into Other Gens?When you start collecting MLP in 1983 it's not hard to fall into what comes after.Don't think that really count as getting into other genes. It's more like I was in MLP before there were other generations.
I had G1s throughout my childhood. I never did like the look of G2s ('skinny' ponies were weird for me), but I don't mind them so much now, though I still don't collect them. Luckily for me, G3 came out when my daughter was about 3 (the perfect age to start her out!), so I collected those for 'her'. G4s are sort of hit and miss for me. I like some, like the vinyls and the pearlized, but most of them I can pass on, especially since there are just so many variations on the same ponies over and over.
