Those of you who never had or never cared about My Little Ponies in the 80's, feel free to roll your eyes at me and skip this one.
As for the rest of you, I'm looking for some input here.
For years, I've had my old collection of My Little Ponies set aside, largely for sentimental value. Not for display or for collecting, but because they had special meaning.
( Why this collection was so important to me - cut for those who don't care about the reasons )Mom's remarried since then, and her place is so full of all our stuff (even AFTER the massive cleanout we did) that the Ponies, up until now, have been relegated to a box in a closet, cleaned and protected but largely unseen. Between my habit of tossing stuff on open surfaces and tendency to packrat, displaying them wouldn't be safe - and I don't have the space. So I decided that rather than let them molder in a closet, I'd sell them off on eBay to collectors who WOULD display them, clean them, and enjoy them. Better than sticking them back in a closet.
Thing is... I can't bear to let them all go. I'd like to keep one or two - just to remind me. That's where I'd like a second opinion.
The ones I've narrowed it down to are:
Moondancer, Sparkler, Cotton Candy, Tex, Sundance, Heart Throb, Baby Surprise, Baby Cuddles
While this may or may not affect my ultimate decision, I'd like some input...
Which one would YOU keep?
