Hello from New Zealand

Hi everyone,

I've been collecting ponies since I was very little, born '85, so have my original G1s, as well as secondhand ponies i've gotten over the years (yardsales, fairs, carboot sales, online etc)
Got into collecting other equine toys for a bit, then got the MLP bug when G3 came out!
Got active in the community and was enjoying hasbro's G3 exclusives. A few personal tragedies (Family passing, Earthquakes/natural disaster) meant I fell out of the collecting community and other fandoms for quite a few years. After two concussions, I've also forgotten who i've made friends with over the years, please forgive me if I don't remember you.

Absolutely love FiM tv show but not so keen on the toys, been watching it since it started.
I Recently bought a few G2s, initially not keen on them I saw a few that were so pretty!

Found HQG1C during the Genie stage and absolutely fell in love with this project, and want to be apart of it, talking ponies, doing fanart, buying the toys..just so happy seeing them!

I have only one pony (Genie) right now, but have put the xmas pony bundle on payment..so excited to get the boys!

I'm not a MOC collector as I gotta play with my toys, brush the hair, tie the bows etc

I have a few OC ponies too.
