Flash. I wonder if the one you have is a German issued one. I frequently see him on eBay Germany. Maybe Piddy or Amy can offer insight as to where he's issued.

Name/Screenname: minniemoo What you collect: My Little Pony is my main collection- G1 was what I grew up with, G3 was my crazy collecting years & now I dabble in G4/FiM! Not an active collector anymore, but I also have far too many Sylvanian Families & an absurd number of dolls..! I had tonnes of pets as a child… at one point I had all the playsets set up in the living room! Recently found my childhood puppies & kitties (along with some bunnies, teddies & ponies!) & could perhaps be persuaded to add to them Need to replace some that have been misplaced over the years! How long you've been collecting: Remember buying puppies when they first came out in the UK, so that was 1994? Didn't realise there were actual collectors out there- I found this forum through vintagepups' Instagram account (I'm c_jenks)! Favorite figure: Hannah (puppy) or Blackie (kitty)

Thanks both x Lol Jenna, but it is difficult to pick a favourite as I have to say I really like Tiny, Santa, Winston (traded years back one of my doubles for him and was over the moon), Mischief.

Hi y'all, how are you doing? My dearest friend (flash) introduced me to this group so here I am! Introduction: Name/Screenname: "Ginni" What you collect: PIMP's and Percious Puppies How long you've been collecting: Since 1990's, not entirely sure when I started. Favorite figure: Tuff question, would probably say Scooper or Jemma 'cause they were two of my first ones. Anything else about yourself: I'm from Sweden, have collected about 200 puppies together with Flash, we'll probably end up fighting each others in the future on which one/s belongs to whom,,, LOL

Welcome Ginni,
I'm fairly new here too although I started my collection in the 1990s (makes me sound old) Lol.

Name/Screenname: blackhorsebeth, though you can call me Beth, Blackhorse, BHB or whatever else you can think of ^^ What you collect: Breyers (though I'm running out of shelf space so have had to limit myself to 'Must Have' models), Schleich horses (ditto), My Beautiful Horses (when I was a child), and just recently started to collect vintage Pony in my Pocket How long you've been collecting: Had some puppy/kitty/pony/Animal Hospital in my Pocket ever since I was about 4 or 5, but only just started to get into actually collecting them Favorite figure: Pony IMP #17 "Beau". Was given him, along with the Fjord family "Willow" and babies by my grandmother when I was very little. I think it was his unusual name (I didn't have much contact with the French language at that age) that made it stick in my mind, since I've never forgotten his name, despite losing his card many years ago. He's well played with (he lost his tail years ago), and I just loved his unique name and beauty. Despite his lack of tail, his nostalgia value makes him my favourite. Anything else about yourself: I never had a very big IMP collection; just whatever I was given by family and friends. I used the dogs and cats with my Animal Hospital people, vet centres and My Beautiful Horses, since they were the right scale. I always wanted to be a vet when I was a child, so I think that's why I got bought the AH IMP sets. When I grew out of MBH I moved on to Schleich, which are the same scale, and since the dogs and cats were realistic enough, they moved over to my Schleich collection as companion animals. And that's where they stayed, gathering dust, until I stumbled upon vintage IMPs on the internet. By then I'd forgotten what they were called, so coming across them again sent a wave of nostalgia over me and I decided to investigate. Whilst I don't think I'll collect many of the puppies, kitties or bunnies, except the ones I really like, I'd love to start collecting the Ponies. And since I love databases and collections, I'd love to see a Pony IMP database like Jenna's 90sInMyPocket website. Oh, and as you can probably tell by now, I'm pony/horse mad, and I'm a UK collector.
