Ossie: My first merch were 7 blind bags from wave 5, which was just released in stores. With a friend I learned how to read blind bag codes and picked up a few blind bag, including Princess Celestia, Cadance and Trixie. For a long time I only kept those blind bags until I decided to get some more figures to start a collection and right now I have over 250 blind bags!
Ilona: I remember how I got my first G4 Toy (I actually had some G2's when I was a child. I told my best friend I liked My Little Pony but she declared me crazy. She knew I was a huge Pokémon an as well and always saw me more as a "boy" person regarding to toys). So on June 30, 2011, after we visited the zoo we walked into a Toy Store as I was planning to buy my first pony. I had no idea who to buy. They basically had the first wave of singles. I also didn't had a favourite Pony at the moment as I just started to watch the show. In the end I picked up a Shine Bright Rainbow Dash Brushable, I was a bit shy so I asked the cashier to wrap it as a gift. My friend still told me liking MLP was so not me, but I knew she took it lightly and more as a joke towards me. I didn't mind it. At home I styled her and she got a place on my desk. And after that day my collection started to grow more and more. Right now I have over 3 cabinets full with MLP Merch from all generations. (Funny thing though, my first Plush and Equestria Girls were Rainbow Dash too!)
