MLP Figures for Art! My collection was purged. :(
10 years ago

Pricing Guide
remember all of these are base prices only! So my mom just told me yesterday that she got rid of my $300ish collection of original Hasbro MLP figures, some of which were original in mint condition, some of which I painstakingly restored on my own, some of which I bought or traded for as custom one-of-a-kind pieces of art.
My mom let my cousin's little daughter pick out a few to keep (I don't know which ones and won't be asking for them back, that'd be incredibly unkind) and donated the rest to Goodwill. I can only hope that they find loving homes, either with another collector or with a child who will love them as much as I did, or even more.
I'm a sad puppy. Some of them I'd had since I was a kid, some were given to me by friends I'll never see again, and almost all of them had HUGE sentimental value to me. I don't talk about my pony collecting much because of the FiM craze over the past few years and the way people get so loud and rabid over it - but this is a bit of a big deal and even though I've been trying to shrug it off...I'm failing. :( Those ponies were the last bit of my childhood, in a way. I keep thinking about it and wanting to throw up or cry a little bit.
So, if anyone wants to help me start rebuilding my collection from scratch, that'd be awesome. I will trade for art. Here's what I'm looking for:
G1 and G3 ponies only! If you bought yours at a store over the past 2 or 3 years, I do not want it.
Unicorns of all poses
Pegasus ponies of all poses
Any G1 earth ponies WITHOUT molding
Big Brothers
Twinkle Eyes
Bait (in batches, in paintable condition)
Any of the custom, OOAK ponies featured on this list.
I will be consulting this site for values, so please don't think I'm undercutting you if you're offering me your childhood toy with lots of sentimental value and I only am willing to give you a sketch or icon for it. Condition will definitely matter to me, but I don't need them to be in pristine or mint condition, just displayable.
If you have any friends who collect, please share this journal with them! ;_; I miss my ponies and I'm very sad I wasn't able to pay to have them shipped to me before mom got rid of 'em. (Not her fault, she had no idea of their value to me or in general.) Thanks for reading!

Is it possible to go to the goodwill and rebuy them?
No, she lives halfway across the country from me and donated them to a Goodwill there months ago. I just didn't know until I asked her about it the other day.
oh well, hope you're able to rebuild your collection :D
