My My Little Ponies were mostly from garage sales. I spent a dime once on about a dozen ponies.

I always wanted to find an intact flutter pony, but mine all have broken wings. It's even hard to find a picture of one even.

Me too. I always wanted to sleep with all of them on my bed at once, and my mom wouldn't let me because of my allergies :( I had to pick two to go to bed with!
I had a tiny twin bed and i piled all my plushies on there plus me and my real poodle dog and my two cats.

And when i went to skating competitions i always brought at least 4 plushies with me. Then my reward for doing good? A Beanie Baby. I have sooooooooo many of those.

I had a bunch from garage sales, too. It was hard to find ones without haircuts, though! :rofl1:

I've never had an intact flutter pony. They just have those little shell clips where the wings used to be.

Remember the Sea Ponies? I would play with them in the tub, and then their hair would get all scraggly and frizzy.

I had various stuffed animals--and I would set them up on the front porch, then apply food coloring (pretended it was medicine) and bandaids to them all--practicing to be a vet! LOL--my Mom couldn't figure out why all the animals had yellow, blue and green spots all over them---or where her food coloring went!

I still collect My Little Ponies! Well, I haven't bought any for quite some time because I don't have room and ended up putting my collection in storage. =< But hopefully sometime soon I can get my collection back out and get to buying a few more of the ones I'm looking for.
I actually have a pair of reproduction Flutter Pony wings... they are REALLY pretty, but I've only taken them out of their box maybe once or twice. I'm afraid to put them into any of the flutter ponies in case they end up breaking, LOL.

Create Your Own Puppy Surprise :p

Except my versions of them poop and pee and I can't stick them back into a velcro tummy when they're being naughty :lol-sign:

I had this one, but with only 3 puppies :(



I also had a pink poodle, a dalmatian, and I think a couple of the Kitty Surprises as well. I was a spoiled child.
OMG a girl in my class had one of those (that one I think) and I was SO jelous of her! I dont know why I never asked for one. I had forgotten about that completely. Oh, how I coveted that Puppy Surprise all through the 1st grade!:p

They're worth almost nothing. lol. I looked them up a few months ago when my parents dropped off my truckload of things!

That's what I'm going to do with mine. I have a few boxes of toys to drop off at a donation drive. 99% of the toys I'm donating have never even been played with, so it should make some kids really happy :)

I kept some of my really nice things for my future kids... like these really cool handpainted toys from the zoo (they are SO realistic looking for toys!), and of course I am going to keep most of my My Little Ponies and Carebear plushies.

I had Simba and Nala plushes, along with Balto and the girl dog from Balto so THERE! :p

I still have Lady and Tramp from when I was 4 and went to Disney. I carried them everywhere with me as a little kid!
My Lady and the Tramp stuffies have been given to Hannah after she fell in love with the movie. I also got them when I went to Disney LOL. When Hannah started watching the movie over and over I figured it was time to give them to her. I can see Lady from where I am sitting right now... she's face down in a foam chair lol

OH I have TONS of plushies even now lol.

It's like we NEVER have to buy Hannah any plushies because I can always just go grab a different one from my storage (but I still guy her stuffies... there's just nothing like them)

when we took her to Disney last year for a day we went to downtown disney and walked around the HUGE disney store and my MIL made the mistake of letting hannah pick out stuffies. first she picked out a little minnie mouse in pink PJ's. Then she found a much bigger minnie mouse... THEN she found Lucky from 101 dalmations. So Grammy ended up footing the bill for all three because it was her fault LOL. Hannah has them in her bed right now.

she's got a giant pooh bear and a giant care bear (both were mine). My old grumpy bear (the rest of my carebears are at my dads still probably being loved on by my neices just like my ponies and barbies lol).

2 cookie monsters and 3 or 4 stuffed elmo's. a blue pony, a pink dog, a dog that looks like a pug only bigger, a dog with a blue jays sweater, a WRINKLES dog (remember those...she has my old one)...

I don't even know... there are so many more lol.

her and I both love stuffies. But right now cookie monster is the go to stuffie. when she's tired or upset she wants cookie monster to drag around and snuggle with.

yeah I was definitely a spoiled child in the toy department and hannah is too. I can't HELP it. Toys are so much fun lol

I can't find a picture online of the one I have...er hannah has lol. I'll have to take a pic later. but she's one of the puppets that's pretty big and she's beige with a blue flowered shirt and shorts on and bows on her ears lol.

I even had the wrinkles MOVIE haha (Hop on the wrinkles bandwagon we'll take you anywhere....)

I've still got my Pound Puppy. He's very old. His nose has fallen off more than once and been reattached. His eyes are scratched up, missing paint in a few places. He has surgical stitches from having been carefully opened, having stuffing replaced, and then gently sewn back up more than once. Pretty much all his fur is rubbed off except in a few places - like the inside of his tail is curled up, so there's still fur inside the curl, and his ears flop over, so inside his ears there is still some fur. He's limp and fragile where his limbs attach, so I always move him carefully because I'm afraid one day he might rip.
In other words - he is the very definition of Real out of The Velveteen Rabbit.

When Auggie was a puppy he went in my room and then came walking out with my Pound Puppy in his mouth, and my sister saw him, and was like "OMG. YOU. DROP THAT RIGHT NOW. YOU WILL END UP DEAD IF YOU DON'T." I don't know how he ended up on the floor - I think I was washing my sheets so he was on my floor with the pillows. But he probably smelled VERY heavily of me because he gets to sit on a pillow on my bed all the time. <3 Come to think of it, maybe Auggie wanted to kill him because my Pound Puppy gets to sleep in my bed and he doesn't...

I know it's just a "thing" but my Pound Puppy is the one thing that I would really, truly be devastated if I ever lost in a fire or something. He's the reason I cry watching Toy Story, LOL.

Nah... I don't think our most special of childhood toys are just things.

they are REAL. They've spent hours making us laugh, being cuddled when we cry or when we are scared. they've been on millions of adventures one could only IMAGINE. they've been our friends and companions :)

They hold SO many memories. just looking at an old beloved toy brings back a flood of memories.

he'll probably kill me for telling you all this LOL. But Brian still has the Teddy bear from the day he was born :)

I sleep with a raggedy stuffed dog at night lol

This thread is making me SO mad at that lady for throwing all my stuff away, seriously. I want my My Little Ponies and Carebears and stuffed animals and books back! I saved that stuff for years. I could just cry

I also had a Christmas bear with the year on its foot from every year :(
