(Excuse any issues in this post, I'm typing one handed because my left arm is damaged)
Hi all,
I've been lurking both this fakie board and the original forum for a few days now and getting really hooked on seeing all the weird, wonderful, interesting, unique fakies that are around. I finally registered today, though I don't have any fakies myself (yet. Unless I'm forgetting one from my childhood which is entirely possible).
So why the sudden interest? I was searching for any info on a pony I saw in an auction listing and it got me hooked. It's all the fault of this pony:-
Anyone have any idea where it is from? I'd quite like to track one down at some point.
Fakies aside, my interest in MLP was peaked due to Friendship is Magic and as I started collecting the toys to do with that I started looking at the older playsets and had soon amassed a collection of older stuff as well. I'm not sure whether I personally owned any genuine mlp (other than the books, I know I had a couple of those) when I was younger but my cousin (who was a few years older than me) had a lot of the g1 stuff and I seem to recall a school friend of mine having the g1 dream castle, so I did already have some memories attached with the older stuff.
I have added a few more things (mostly g4 blind bags and a couple more figures of the mane 6) to my collection since I last took a complete collection shot but here's the latest photo I have:-

I think that about covers it. Looking forward to get to know you all. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have
