Check the bottom of my Wish List for info! Puddin's Wish List

4. Tell us a little about yourself! How long have you been collecting ponies?
My first pony was G2 Magic Motion Ivy, but she disappeared long ago into the ether, so I started up again in the early 2000's with Rainbow Dash III and October Calendula (my birth flower pony, hehe!)

Roughly how many do you have?
A lot... over 50 at a guess...

Which generations do you colllect?
G3 and G4, but I would love to get some G1s to add to the mix!

Do you collect anything besides ponies?
Coffee nugs, interestingly labeled/designed vintage bottles, LPs (as in vinyl records - not Littlest Pet Shop, hehe!), books, certain designer vinyl toys.

What is your favorite color and your favorite animal?
My favourite colours are blue and orange, and I love all animals, so I've used their orders, my favourites within the order are bracketed, felidae (domestic cats, bobcats, lynx, cougars), canidae (foxes, wolves), ursidae (brown & black bears), aves (owls, jays), cervidae (red deer, moose), cetacea (narwhals) and of course equus (donkeys, horses - in particular Clydesdales and Paints). The only animals I dislike are chimps and gibbons, as I find them creepy.

Do you have any kids or pets?
No kids (thank god - I'm still practically a child myself, haha!) but I have a GORGEOUS pet budgie who is ancient, but still acts like a spoilt brat, haha! I will also be taking over the care of a pair of Scoot-Scootaloooos (chickens) for a friend who's moving away soon!

Are you into any crafts? Be creative here!
I'm a graphic designer, so if that counts as a craft... sort of! Haha, I love making weird collages out of old natural history books bought from thrift stores, I love taking photos with my manual (film) camera and I customise ponies too!

I've been collecting since 2006, started getting into ponies during G3 and forgot about them during G3.5 [only gen I dislike]. After FIM I started to get back into MLP and lately I've been more into G1s and G4s, but G2s and G3s are always welcomed as well I'm not sure how many ponies I have at the moment, so I'm gonna guess around 20 to 25.

I also collect coffee mugs, cute shaped erasers, band t-shirts and hello kitty stuff! I don't have any kids, but have 3 cats that are my babies. My favourite colours are purple, blue, pink, black and gray. And since I'm not very good at making descriptions about myself, I'm just gonna randomly list a few things I like: Duran Duran, cats, Venture Brothers, Coffee, Books, Cutesy monsters, 80's music, Foo Fighters, Tarantino movies, vintage things, pin ups, make up.


5. Post a link to your want list here if you have one. (Links only please!)
I don't really have one, but I have pictures of a few of the ponies I own on my signature [updated on 10/4 ] and currently been particularly into twinkle eyed ponies

And I don't really like BBE babies, sea ponies or G3.5

Only five more places open! Woot! Woot! Are we getting excited yet?

This is so exciting So many people are joining!

Looks like you're going to have lots of fun!

1. Are you willing to ship internationally? Yes, but only if there is someone without a partner... I would rather not have to spend a lot on shipping... ._.
2. Do you have any food or fragrance allergies? Nope, not one!

3. What kind of candy or snacks do you like? Any dislikes? I love chocolate of any sort (especially kitkat bars and "crunch" bars, the kind with rice in them). I hate white chocolate, though... I also like any sour-ish candy, and I LOVE bubble gum, apple, and mango dum-dum lolly pops! The only thing I can think of that I dislike is spicy candies, like fireballs.

What is your favorite color and your favorite animal? Do you have any kids or pets? Are you into any crafts? Be creative here! Hi! I've only been collecting ponies for a couple of months, so I don't have that many. I only have 23 at the moment. I really only collect G1 ponies actively, but I think g2s and threes are pretty cute. Other than ponies, I collect manga,and pretty note books and stationary. My favourite colours are probably pink and purple, but there aren't any colours I dislike. I would say that my favourite colour is "rainbow", but that's silly. My favourite animal would probably be either an owl or a black bear. My favourite mythical animal is either a pegasus or an alicorn. I don't have any kids, but I have two Jack Russle Terriers, Monty and Ellie. Craft wise, I like to attempt scrap-booking, and sew. I also make fursuits!

You make fursuits! That's awesome. I've been meaning to make one for ages now.

^///^ Thank you! They're so much fun to design and work on, and fursuiting is such a rewarding activity. Making people smile is always fun.

That's my personal fursuit (only my second one, so it's not the best ._.'). Her name is Disko. :3

Hey... I'm game! I'd love to get rolling on some "feedback" for the Arena (especially if this "kick" is gonna last... :lol:)

Let's see here..

1. Are you willing to ship internationally?
Unfortunately... not this time...

2. Do you have any food or fragrance allergies?
Nope!

3. What kind of candy or snacks do you like? Any dislikes?
I LOVE chocolate and caramel! Rollos... Werthers... just straight caramel. I love gummy candies too.

As for dislikes... I'm not terribly fond of anything sour, or mint...

4. Tell us a little about yourself! How long have you been collecting ponies?
I've been collecting MLPS since I was... 3 or 4. Gusty was one of my most beloved ponies (I still have my original! And after thsi week... she's about 20% cleaner. ) And I still have MOST of those original ponies.

The one that ALWAYS eluded me as a kid... was Baby Gusty... *sigh* Tho now, as an adult... I realise there's an alternative to the BBE version with the scary eyes... O.o

When the G3s hit, I started buying a few here and there... (My all time fav would have to be Gardenia Glow! Something about her color combo, and cutie mark... just spoke to me!), mostly with the desire to CMize them. Tho, I did make sure I kept one each... an Earth Pony (Gardenia), a Unicorn (Whistle Wishes), a Pegasus (Coconut Grove) and a Baby... whom I can't think of the name. ~LOL~ (tho I WISH I had been able to procure a Pegasus or Unicorn baby!), if only to have them to compare to the ORIGINAL G1s.

I tried my hand at CMizing, but sadly... my first attempt ended in one VERY sticky pony, that I was waaaaaay too frustrated to "rehair". >.< So I gave up...

That is until recently. I honestly have NO IDEA what clicked in my brain... but one week... I was staunchly against the design of the G4s... then last weekend, I woke up and decided that they were CUTE, and I needed some to add t omy G1s, and few G3s.

Now I find myself with a growing number of G4s (Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Blossomforth, and Dewdrop Drizzle (tho she is being CMized ATM!))... and I want more! O.o (You can see a few of my collection uploaded to my webshots album... I'm sloooowly adding more... home-and-garden.websho...2901QJOtZC )

Roughly how many do you have? Which generations do you colllect?
How many?? Not NEARLY as many as a lot of colectors on thsi board have! Maybe 20 or 25... if you count the few bait ponies that I intend to one day CMize for myself... to be part of my collection. ^.^

So I'd say i officially collect G1s, and a few G4s... and hopefully I'll start CMizing more G4s... if my current effort is successful!!!

Do you have any kids or pets?
i don't have kids *yet*... tho I do have three "blood" neices... and two "neices" by my best friend. With any luck... I'll have them hooked soon! ^.^

I do have three "furkids" (aka cats), Rocky, Wiggy and Missy. Rocky and Wiggy are brother and sister... and Missy was a "birthday present" from my mom... that somehow ended up staying. ~LOL~

Do you collect anything besides ponies?
As for what else I collect... quite a lot of stuff! From Books, to buttons, to model Horses, Walt Disney Classics Collection Porcelains... and a whole lot more! (check out my webshots for a few examples.... community.webshots.com...dybrooklyn )

What is your favorite color and your favorite animal?
I LOVE The "royal" colors... Purple... Blue... Green... Generally Cool colors rather than pinks and pastels. If it's any indication, Gusty is deep green and red, Gardenia Glow is Green with pinkish/magenta hair... and I also love Glory and Moon Dancer... with their Burgendy and Purple manes. I also LOVE "fall" colors... oranges... yellows and what not. Just not on something I plan to wear on my person.

As for Favorite animal... I should think it would be obvious from my webshots. horses!!!! Thow I ADORE Burros/Donkeys... and Mules too. then Zebras... and of course "Fantasy Equines"... Unicorns, Pegasi... Centaurs... Dragons etc...

5. Post a link to your want list here if you have one. (Links only please!)
I honestly don't have a "link" to a want list yet (EDIT: I just posted a list! Check it out... HERE). Heck... I'm still compling one! So... there are a few G4s I'm looking for... mostly because I want to CMize them! ^.^

~Blossomforth
~Flitterheart
~Snowcatcher

I'm also looking for more of the "Plastic Haired" versions of the mane cast. ^.^ Pinkie Pie, Applejack and Twilight...

OH... and BLIND BAG packs!! I haven't been able to find ANY of them other than online/ebay... and on Hasbro.com... but I'd love TONS of these critters to have fun with and paint!!!

Then there's the oldies... Baby Gusty (heck... anything Gusty Related!!!)... Firefly... Bubbles... Maybe I should START a wantlist soon huh??

If you haven't figured it out yet... I'm an artist... with TONS of ideas running around in my head... and nothing to work my magic on yet! ~LOL~

6. PM me with your name, mailing address and email address.
Off to do so!

This should be fun!!! I'll have to find some good stuff for my partner!

So, I've been wanting to join a swap for a while but;

- I couldn't join others I have been interested in, like the advent calendar swap, because I have lots of feedback, but I don't have any previous swap participation.
-I can't join this newbie swap, because I have too much feedback.
-I can't make my own swap, because I haven't participated in one yet.

It's kind of irrelevant at this point, because I'm due in 6 weeks anyway, so I don't want to commit to sending a parcel out right then, but I hope someone does a swap later on that I can finally join. It looks like lots of fun, and I'm feeling left out here.

Maybe you should PM one of the usual swap creators and ask them to keep people like you in mind for their next swap, something like "previous swap experience OR x amount of feedback" instead of both. I thought I already saw a swap like that before but I may be remembering wrong

OH MAN! I AM SO SO SO SO SOOOO EXCITED!!!
