After about a year and a half, I finally completed my set of the 67 brushables that came in this particular single packaging! I got every single variation, from DVD vs. no DVD, forelock vs. no forelock, light pink vs. dark pink haired Fluttershy, and even Cupcake vs. Sugarcup!

I'm currently not planning on going after the two pack ones, but I don't know if the world is ready for that, lol! (I know I'm not ready :cry:) The next set I really want to complete is my trading card collection (11 cards left!!).

And I don't have the proper display area yet so this is as good as it gets for pictures (sigh).

I don't know if I'd call them specifically mint in box because at least one is missing her ad pamphlet that I think should have been there, and I suppose technically it's not quite the whole US set if one of them, other than Sugarcup, is secretly an international version...

But I've been absolutely dying to get all these! It took me almost exactly a year to find the last four, with Original Series Flitterheart with DVD and Original Series Rainbow Dash with DVD somehow being my elusive last two.

Wow! Impressive! Congratulations on a lovely collection.
 
So amazing! I love all of those characters that we don’t get to see very much. I love the mane 6 but I wish they had made more toys of different ponies. Great collection!!!!
 
Super impressive! Congratulations, I know that took some effort.

I know, right! The ones that weren't really anywhere else, like Snowcatcher, Flitterheart, and Feathermay, were especially fun to find!
 
This just have taken such a long time and I can imagine it must have been so difficult.

A year and half this took? I would have imagined it would’ve taken longer if you had not said that. It must be tricky trying tho catch up to single releases like this when they’ve finished doing these now. Congratulations on the completion, I bet a display of these would look like a proper toy isle!

Yep! It surprised me, too! Just to make sure I wasn't going crazy, I consulted my log.

I had at least 11 from 2020. I wasn't planning on collecting them at that point. I grabbed a Rarity one from the flea market that February, because Rarity <3, and I bought a few here and there. OkamiGirl64 was liquidating her collection, so I bought some cool ones just because they weren't Mane Six characters. So original Rarity with no forelock was the first of this whole thing. So if we go by that, I should correct it to two years nine months.

I bought six at the end of February 2021, and that's when I kind of was like, welp, I'm collecting these now, so around March 2021, I decided to go after the 66/67. This is where I was like, well, it was a year and a half then. I didn't realize until today I was thinking November was the ninth month when I posted. :p So a year and eight months, still about a year and a half, though it is nowhere near as catchy.

I bought at least 49 in 2021. If any of you or a loved one sold any that year, I was probably the buyer ^-^' and if you were beaten last minute by an eBay sniper on an auction that year for one, it was probably me :cool:

I may have gone through a small bout of retail therapy during the pandemic...

There are about three that currently I'm not sure when they appeared, but most likely it was 2021.

The last four were in 2022, with Sugarcup probably being a mistake, because honestly that was the most expensive of the bunch. Diamond Rose and Cherry Pie, both regular, and maybe two others were runners up that were substantially less. Without Sugarcup, the prices ranged from $3 to ~$70/75 per brushable. I know what the average price of all the normal ones was, but I don't want to admit it :sick: After Sugarcup, it was regular wedding Applejack, then Flitterheart with DVD, and original Rainbow Dash with DVD.

Most of them were from eBay and Mercari, with eBay winning at least 35 to 15, since I'm not sure on a few of them. I have a few thanks to darcerin here and ApertureScience on the Arena, and of course the few from OkamiGirl64 thanks to Instagram, but for the most part my begging on Facebook groups and around here was the least effective method. Spending hours combing eBay and Mercari with constant searches for "mib," "nib," "new," "sealed," etc. for months straight did the trick. :rofl:
 
Congratulations! Big time!
