Well with con season being over and my budget getting tighter, I haven't really been in much of a position to get any new toys. That's why I'm glad for Christmas! I got several new ponies, thanks to my wonderful friends and family. I even got a new styling pony (which I'll have to put pics of her up later because she is being styled right now). The new ponies are pretty cute, despite their downfalls.
I got Scootaloo who comes with a logic defying tricycle. How can she pedal and hold the handlebars at the same time? It's a mystery! She has those disgusting worthless rubber clothes, too. The hats are cute, though. She had a little bike helmet. Speaking of hats, new Cheerilee has a little cowgirl hat that really looks better on Scootaloo. My good friend gave her to me at the Texas Roadhouse, so we felt it appropriate to leave her out on the table the entire dinner for "atmosphere."
I actually ended up with two Cheerilees, and I actually like the tats new Cheerilee is sporting. What I don't like is the "name on the leg" tat that Hasbro came out with and my new Starsong is sporting. Who gets their own name tatooed down their leg? But it's ok, because I didn't have a Starsong before. Of course, I'm still upset that they all have the same pose, makes photo ops boring.
Anyways, I've got a few customs in the works that I'll hopefully be able to show off somewhat soon. My next convention isn't until May, though, so it'll be a long wait to find any other cool toys. Until then, look forward to me getting up some pictures of a decent Venom I found a while back.
