    G1 Basic Fun Retro Ponies: A Collector's Guide

    It is terrible... however the other day when I was taking a look at my collection I couldn't find a single pony with the marks on it. I had thought some of my most prized ones and childhood ones were among the affected but I couldn't find a single one. A pony miracle? Well my order of the...

    G1 Basic Fun Retro Ponies: A Collector's Guide

    Yeah I stopped for a few years now. Last time we moved I put my collection in a stripy zip up bag and quite a few got marked by the bag... I couldn't believe I could be that careless and I think it put me off for a while. That and soaring ebay prices. My house is already colourful :lolpony...

    G1 Basic Fun Retro Ponies: A Collector's Guide

    Well I may have my terminology wrong, I mean the second release rainbow ponies - the set with Tickle, Trickles, Flutterbye etc. It is a little exciting! I agree about Applejack, she is really unique colour wise... the original was always one of my favorites. I'm excited now I guess my...

    G1 Basic Fun Retro Ponies: A Collector's Guide

    Well I decided to stop thinking about it I ordered the full set of second rainbows and Stranger Things Applejack. A bit of shoppers guilt now but I'll live.

    G1 Basic Fun Retro Ponies: A Collector's Guide

    Yeah Amazon AU varies a lot mostly the markup on them is huge... kinda would prefer to buy them from that small business toy shop or focus on my original G1 collection.

    G1 Basic Fun Retro Ponies: A Collector's Guide

    Ah that's a shame, I remember getting the 25th anniversary releases when they came out. It was awesome to be able to walk into a store and pick up G1 ponies! I have been able to find a toy/collectables store who sell them in Australia, not in my city but they ship them. So I'm thinking about...

    Took a break for 3 years, now I'm back!

    Hi everyone, I don't know if anyone remembers me... I took a break from collecting for a while due to financial reasons and now I'm ready to get back into it. I still have my collection proudly displayed, I just haven't added to it for a while. Anyway I'm 34 years old from Australia. I...

    G1 Getting back into collecting, WTB G1s

    Hi All, I'm getting back into collecting after about 3 years break and I'm a bit lost in the world of eBay and the trading post. I've got a lot of ponies on my list but I thought I would start with some of the earlier ones that I still don't have: - Any of the Year 3 Sea Ponies (preferably...

    My European McD Ponies!

    we had those in Australian happy meals too... but they didn't come with the cute little stands. I think they came with combs. I have a bunch of them as I always pick them up when I see them in Savers, some of them have seen better days though. I think they are super cute!

    SS Best Wishes over $50? I don't get it...

    I got a little excited when I read this title because I thought that maybe the price of Best Wishes had gone up significantly, and I have a spare! But it if was one of those one off things then nevermind. This does happen frequently I think, where common ponies get bidded up to high amounts by...

    Subconsious Pony Buying

    Thankfully I kept all my childhood ponies... however when I collect the ones I want most are either ones I remember wanting in stores, or ones my friend's who had ponies had. For example, my first pony was cotton candy ... I was 3 at the time I believe and my "best friend" at the time had a...

    That's pretty much what I thought. Thanks for the advice, both of you. I think I will keep the ones MIB that I LIKE that way and debox the rest for more space. Thanks again!

    Keeping G3 MIB

    Hey all, I know this is a really common question but I just did a search and couldn't find an answer. Anyway I have recently moved house and have just finished setting up my collection (will put pics in brag section soon!). I had my Mum bring down my G3 collection as I have more space now...

    I wish hasbro bring g1 ponies back...

    I miss G1 ponies too. I wish they would do more retro re-releases.... or maybe a special new set in G1 moulds. I don't know if I want them to bring them back completely... I wouldn't want to lose that nostalgic feeling I get when I'm collecting G1s.... also don't think my bank account would...

    Anyone else have this? (MLP Merchandise)

    Wow! G1 merch is really special, I wish I had more of it. As for me I have ONE colouring book from when I was a kid, and a sheet set that my mum picked up for me once when I started seriously collecting. I remember when I was a kid I used to have a sticker book, and I used to buy packets of...

    Picture of the new winged unicorn pony and new animated character

    I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion on this. Well, on ANY pony really. Personally I'm baffled by the constant re-inventing of ponies, logos etc. I think maybe I missed something. Were the ponies before core 7 not selling well? Were core 7 not selling well? Were 3.5s not...
