My friend messaged me to inform me of a local toy show today. I went and boy, was it ever disappointing. I've never been to a Toy Show in BC (Canada) before, only in Toronto. It was pretty sad. Very few vendors. Nothing of interest to me at all.

However, I decided to stop by the thrift stores and Toy Traders on the way home and I picked up SS Taffy, which I thought I had in my collection and recently found out I don't or she's missing. I paid too much for her, but I'm happy to have her. I think I'm just missing Crumpet now. Anyway, thrifting was pretty decent too. I really like that walking/talking Pinkie Pie. The day wasn't a total loss.

Oh my goodness how green I am at your Taffy. She is up there on my wanted list. I love her. You are super lucky to end that whole experience on such a high note regardless of what you spent, she looks fab.
 
where is that rarity from never seen it before?
 
You found all that in one day? WOW WOW WOW! What fabulous luck! HUZZAH!

And sometimes it's worth to spend a bit more for a Pony when it's right in front of you. Better to grab it then than have to buy it online and add shipping and such. Plus, there's nothing wrong with a little instant gratification. :D
 
Be still my heart I wish I could find a rarity like that or any version of rarity lol. I collect her mainly. I just wonder what its from so I can get one.

I only bought half of what I found at the thrift store. I put back tons of stuff that I already had. I need to sell or trade all my doubles and triples. I probably have a couple hundred extras between all generations.

Also, Tula, if I do ever locate my Taffy (I was sure I had her), you may have first dibs on this one. I paid $36 CAN for her, which I thought was pricey. I think her forelock has been trimmed and she is missing flocking on her neck, but her hair covers it pretty well.
 
My I ask if there is a marking on the bottom of the rarity ? also wow is right on all that in one day.
 
Just to be clear, you are referring to the middle Rarity, right? She's has a MLP Movie stamp on the bottom.

You guys should have seen all the stuff I put back! There are a couple thrift stores here that I always find tons and tons of ponies at, but sadly, mainly just G3 and G4. I'm primarily looking to complete my G1s. Maybe I should keep an eye out for others.

Mad house when there theater promo to get lol. Rarity was the only one I wanted but anyway that what that is the movie cup topper.

Ha! Now I'm curious about all the goodies you left behind!

I'm really bad about doubles, triples and worse. I buy a Pony, I pretty much keep it, regardless of how many I have. :D
 
I agree with @evilbunnyfoofoo what a great pony day it turned into after all! Love that tatty. She's gorgeous!
