Min'na-sama, hajimemashite! (Nice to meet you, everyone!)

Hello, everyone!!! So pleased to meet you and join your wonderful forum!

I discovered it through my dear friend, Ringlets, here on MLP Arena. (Thank you so much, Ringlets-san! :hugs:)

I'm a big Rarity x Prince Blueblood fan and collector from G4. When my sister and I were little girls, we loved the G1 ponies and had about 20 of them, and even the original 'precursor' large brown pony figure horse with the blonde 'growing' mane from the late 70s, early 80s.
Then in the 1990s, I found the cute 'My Little Pony Tales' tv series and loved Ace and Melody. I think I even drew 'paper dolls' of the cast back then and my sis and I tried to recreate the characters using the ponies we had from the 1980s, repainted and rehaired, etc!! :laughs:

Then, when 'Friendship is Magic' came out around 2011, I fell in love all over again and especially with Rarity (my favorite colors! Purple and white!) and Prince Blueblood! I read as much Rariblood fanfiction as I could find, particularly adoring 'Flight of the Alicorn' by Ponydora Prancypants. (I even bought a hardcover book of it! I just wish he would continue the saga with Book 2!)
I also collect all Rarity and Blueblood figures, ponies, plush, books, statues, etc and make OOAK customs of Blueblood as well to match.
In 2012, my sister and I cosplayed as Rarity and Applejack for Halloween that year!!! It was such fun!!!!

I saw in the welcome post, that some information could be added to an introduction post, so here goes!

Personal:

How old are you? Old enough to have collected the original G1 ponies when they first came out! ^.~
 
Where do you live? Country? USA

Do you work or attend school? Profession or major? We are seamstresses and dollmakers, full time.

Who are the important people in your life?My family.

Ponies: Rarity x Blueblood! (My sis collects Applejack) We also have all the G4 Mane 6 and their pets as well for our 'collection'.

How long have you been collecting?My sis received that first big 'pre-MLP' pony as a birthday gift from our big brother wayyyyyy back in 1981 or thereabouts. Then we collected here and there some G1 ponies; handmade some G2? (1990s) ponies; and now collect all Rarity, Blueblood, and Applejack figures, ponies and plushies!

Which generations of ponies do you collect? G1, G2, G3 or G4? Mainly G4 now.

What made you want to collect ponies? Always loved them and horses and just am a big doll collector and maker so it's a perfect fit!

Tell us about your collection! [See above]

I can't wait to share photos of my customs and get to know you all!!!

Hugs to all!

God bless you!!!!!
