Meanwhile, in the Geek Cave...

The G1s are cleaned, photographed, catalogued, and reorganized.  Huzzah!

Here are a few updated pictures of the G1 shelves.

I've also managed to shift a few things out of the Cave that had been stuck in there for quite a while.  This means there's more space in the Cave for the things that are supposed to be there.

Work on the catalogue continues.  Playsets and pony wear still need to be done on both the G1 and G3 sides.  The G4s are next on the list.

Bonus Post: Holidays at Elfpony's Roomy's!

You know that Roomy is also a collector.  This year she started re-arranging her collection while I was setting up my Pony Holiday display.  So of course...

Ah!  The Holidays on Eternia!  Of course the party is happening in Castle Greyskull.  The twins are exchanging gifts for their birthday.  It looks Cringer got something for Adam, too.  And Seahawk has arrived with a gift for Adora.

Orco and Teela are checking out the other gifts under the tree.  Some of Adora's friends have arrived with more gifts.  Frosta is on the lookout for He-Man and the mistletoe.

Bow is providing some dulcet tones on his lyre.  He's got quite an audience, too.

Man-At-Arms seems to have brought a very large gift for someone special.

Yes, the Holidays are a time for giving.  Giving your Roomy a new display!

Happy Holidays!
Elf and Roomy

Holidays at Elfpony's 2016 Edition

Every year, at the start of the Holiday season, Majesty hosts a special party at the Dream Castle for all the Ponies who have had something special happen or have accomplished something special during the past year.  All the invited ponies dress up in their best for an evening of food, drink, socializing and recognition.

The Ponies are just starting to arrive for this year's celebration.  Some other Ponies have been hired to bring the invitees to the party in style, in a two Pony open sleigh.

Majesty and Spike greet everyone at the drawbridge and welcome them inside.

The Ponies are serenaded with carols from Medley's Choir.  The musical Ponies will be performing all night.  Don't they sound wonderful?

The Ponies are mingling, enjoying the music and the company.  Everyone is in a festive mood.

Stockings and Merry Treat are there to oversee the party, as usual.  Stockings has made sure the Dream Castle is looking its best, with lovely decorations, while Merry Treat has been hard at work preparing the cakes, pies, and other treats for the guests.  Doesn't everything look so lovely and tasty!

Happy Holidays!

Random Pony Thoughts About...Minty

Let's take a moment to consider a specific pony.

Various and sundry Mintys

What is it about Minty?  Why is she so popular?  Is it because she's green?  Because she's appeared in three of the four generations of MLP?  Because of her enthusiasm for socks?

G1 Minty.  Perhaps the least minty-Minty

There should certainly be more green ponies.  It actually irks me that one of the Mane 6 isn't green, which would have completed the rainbow.  All the Mintys are green, though, and it makes them stand out among all the pink, purple, and white ponies.  Green ponies often seem to be some of the most popular with collectors.

Nothing says Christmas like a pair of Mintys

G3 Minty is one of the few characters who's at all interesting, mainly due to her starring role in A Very Minty Christmas.  She gets as much character development in 30 minutes as any G3 pony gets in six-odd years of cartoons, back cards, and merchandising.

I'm just saying

Does anyone else think that when Hasbro designed G3 Minty they confused G1 Minty with Mint Dreams?  There's definitely more of a resemblance here, I'm just saying.

I swore I was going to stop with the Mane 6

Minty is like a potato chip.  You can't have just one.
