Hello From Tasmania!

[princesslocket]

Hi Everybody ;D Yay I'm the first Tasmanain here - actually I often think I must be the only Tassie MLP collector in existence lol

I'm sure lots of you already know me from other boards but here goes the intro for those who don't know me. I'm 26 and have been collecting for about a year and a half. It started when I came across my childhood collection when packing up to move. A friend guided me to Ebay to check out their value and I ended up buying a few . . . and a few more . . . and a few more. Before I knew it I was addicted.

I collect G1s, had a dabble in G3s for while back but just sold the majority of them. I've only kept a few of my absolute favs. My favourite sets are the TE and Princess ponies and the favourite ponies in my collection would have to be my beautiful MOC Locket, Brazilian Heartthrob and my childhood TAF baby set.

Away from the world of MLP I live on a small property and have 5 real ponies who I spend most weekends competing with. I work as a pa to finance both the real and plastic ponies. Looking forward to getting to know all the Aussies I haven't met yet

I'll definately put up some photos ;D

I still can't believe how lucky I am to have the TAF babies from childhood Mum had good taste! I got both them and the sparkle pony set . . . I'll never forget how shocked I was the first time I came across one on Ebay and saw how much they went for!

I bought my Thistle Whistle from somebody down Hobart way and they had quite a few ponies listed on Ebay at one time . . . it's possible they were a collector because she was straight out of the box mint she definately wasn't a child's toy.

wouldn't it be great if you were the only tasmanian then you would have ponies all to yourself

I've just discovered I'm definately not the only collector down here

Another Tassie bought some ponies from my Ebay sales . . . right down the opposite end of the state though.
