Oh, I love these kinds of questionnaires!
1. How many mlp ponies do you think you own (not including other merchandise like backpacks, clothes, watches, decor)? (approximately)
About 170-180, including the doubles and McDonalds figures.
2. What is your favorite generation of Pony toys?
Generation 1, because this is the gen I grew up with.
3. Do you have ONE favorite pony, or at least a top 3 of all time?
I love all the pony figures, but if I were to name my top 3 that'd be: Sugarberry, baby Ember (the purple one) and Daffodil.
4. A If you are married or living with or seriously dating a person who is not into MLP, what do they think of your hobby/collection? or B If you are with someone who also DOES like MLP, what do you do together and do you shop together or mix each other ponies or keep separate?
I can't really answer that question, since I'm single.
5. How and when did you become interested/start collecting ponies? From childhood? And why/how/what interested you?
It all started, when I first began watching the "Friendship is Magic" show last year. It got me all sentimental, since, like I said, I remember growing up with the old G1 ponies, and even owning some of them (I still have them). So I started collecting them.
6. What is your favorite pony "pose"?
The shy earth pony pose and the shy pegasus pose.
7. List in order the 3 most important things you look for in purchasing a used pony when it comes to hair, eyes, symbols/cutie marks. For example, if nice uncut hair is your biggest want in used ponies, that's #1, or if mint symbols are most important, that would be #1
The eyes and symbol must look good - that I think is my only requirement. Since ponies are quite hard to come by where I live, and I'm not all too keen on using eBay, I'm not a picky collector, and usually I'll take nearly all pony in any shape and condition - so long as it isn't something that's beyond restoration.
8. Do you watch the show(s) (i.e. friendship is magic) or just collect, or both?
Both.
9. Do you have any tattoos, or dyed hair to look like a pony, or anything like that, or want to?
None of that. From time to time I think about getting a tattoo, but I'm not sure if it'll be something pony related. As for dyeing my hair... I don't want to do that. I like my hair as it is.
10. Do you think in 10-20 years you'll still be collecting/owning or think you'll want to sell most or all of your ponies by then?
Depends on the circumstances. For the next couple years, I'll be collecting them for sure, since there are still a lot of figures I don't own. Will I ever sell them? Don't think so. Unless , I'll come across replacements for the ponies that are in not-so-good condition (excluding my childhood herd - these ponies I'll never get rid of, no matter what).
