Do I want to know the total cost of everything in this picture? I can't even begin to come up with an estimate

Ah yes...
I think that might be a little high... maybe...
Estimating is pretty tough with so much variability in pricing across so many pieces.

Going by the fact that most plush makers charge about $200 for a canon character mid size and about 80 for smaller ones. If I cut this in half here. 

214/2 is 107

So
107x$200 is $21,400
107x$80 is $8,560

$21,400+$8,560= $29,960 (Or basically $30,000)

There, that's my estimate XD

To put this even further if this is 2 years

That's about 41 dollars a day, every day for 730 days.

I want a small Handmade dashie for 3 years But I dont have the money  for ;-;
the only that I found with good prices for me is closed for the moment xD but for the first Time I found yesterday a cute official plush of her O_o (I dont Like the Hasbro ones) but thats not Like a Handmade :/

No special room, they are all just hanging out in my bedroom.  
I really do need a separate room for them, though.

Yeah, Dash is usually pretty expensive because of all her dang colors.
There are a number of relatively inexpensive plushie artists that might be able to help you out, depending on how much you have to spend.

Yeah, they are all crammed in with me and my room is not exactly large either.
I had to actually add a few Ikea shelves up on the walls just to get some more space.  

You might be able to find a Dash for under $70, though it may take a little digging.
TheHarley makes super tiny mini beanies that could possibly fit that bill: soapybacon.storenvy.com
School should definitely come first though!

Thanks!

Good luck!

Ah, I hadn't noticed that you were in Belgium.
Do you know how far from GalaCon you are?
That was the same weekend as BronyCon and was apparently pretty big, too.
It's probably not wildly close to you, but it could be an option!

I definitely like to take pictures of them when they arrive, usually just to let the artist know that they are safe.

hehe thanks Omg so lucky ;-; 2 years again -.- but even With my own job I'm not sure to have money for. 200$ for a plush its pretty expensive I just want one dashie I bought an hasbro one but I really really hate her she 's not the same as the picture from eBay its very frustrating even if the seller refound me. A 3 years dream broken.

yes I'm from Belgian its why my english is so Silly xD
thanks for informing me I didnt know Galacon its a little far from Belgium but maybe a day ? 

Yes its nice for the artist to see the plushies are loved + safe and sound I'm waiting for 3 plushies (2 ponies ) I'll immediately take a picture. Can't wait to see your picture ! 

I've  never drawn Scoot' you inspire me to draw one for you ^.^ Maybe tomorrow evening (in my Timezone lol )

Yeah, I also sort of have no life so I tend to be pretty cheap in most other areas. 
Ponies are my one big splurge item.

I don't know exactly where in Germany they hold Galacon, but hopefully it is relatively accessible.
I flew about 6 - 7 hours for BronyCon a couple weeks ago so it sounds like it might be a similar distance for you.

Yep, I always try to take a 'Welcome Home' shot any time a new pony arrives!
I'll try to remember to show you as well!

Just saw her and thanks so much (again)!

Yes its very similar but americans are so courageous, here in Europe it s Like "what 2 hours its  a lot !" XD but I'll go one day in Galacon to meet bronies. Not much fans in Belgium

hehe I do the same c: its fun and the artist is Happy to see the plush when do you think your 2 news plushies will come ? Dont worry I'll see them if you'll post here C:

Ha, I wouldn't call it overly 'courageous.'  
Before that weekend, I had never gone anywhere that far away so it was pretty new.
Though you might be traveling a shorter distance, I'm guessing that the fact you have to go into another country adds to the adventure.  

I don't normally publicly post the arrival pictures I take since I just note them to the artists, but I'll try to remember to specifically send them to you, too.

DeadParrot22 In reply to TheGreat-Powerful-Oz [2014-08-23 20:40:06 +0000 UTC]

It was my first 'BronyCon' proper.
I had gone to EQLA in California the two times it ran and I went to EFNW in Washington back in July.

I want to make it over to Europe someday, but I've barely even seen any of my own country. 
Figure I should probably do a little more of that before heading across the pond. 

I guess I've always thought that publically posting pictures of my stuff as it arrives is unnecessary.
The artists already have them posted on their own pages and I don't want anyone to accidentally thing that I made them or something. 
Anyway, Dash and Scoots did show up the other day!

DeadParrot22 In reply to TheGreat-Powerful-Oz [2014-08-24 16:31:56 +0000 UTC]

It's a pretty big place so you'd probably want to narrow down where you want to live. 
I really like California's weather, but it is pretty expensive.
The east coast has a lot more history and 'culture' to it, but it is also relatively crowded in the most popular areas.
The Gulf of Mexico states are usually super hot and humid and a good chunk of the mid-west has to deal with hurricanes and tornadoes each year so I definitely wouldn't want to live around there.
Lot of options. 

I've been a fan of British TV for a long time now so I've always wanted to get up to England sometime, and the rest of Europe would be very cool as well.
Belgium seems like it would be nice because it is just so small and not overly involved in all the contentious matters of the 'superpowers.' 

Ah, very nice!
Kiashone does great work!
I'm sure you'll love your RD when you get her!

All I have to say is... damn! I thought my collection of 30+ plushes was a lot but this... this takes the cake! I might have around 15% of the total number of plushes you have! Looks like I better start saving up and give you some competition. Holy... wow! Just wow! I thought I've seen a collection of plushes, but clearly I was wrong. Awesome collection nonetheless! 

BTW, do you have any favorites in your massive collection? Any crown jewels?

I still remember when I had around thirty and I too thought that was a lot.
Then I just didn't stop.  

It's really hard to pick favorites!  
I do still have a major attachment to SpaceVoyager's Scootaloo as she was my very first that kicked this whole thing off, and standing Lyra and Scootabat are always big crowd-pleasers because of their interesting designs, but I really do love them all!

Ah nice. I think with the recent additions I got at Bronycon, I have around 30+ or so. I want to say around 35, but I'm not too sure. But still, I'll probably never stop also! I'll keep finding cute and huggable plushes! I don't think my parents and sister will understand why I will continue to collect plushes, but I'll say that it's better than drugs and stuff. I do have a Pinkie from SpaceVoyeger, which I might consider one of my crown jewels. I hope to get one from WhiteDove soon. That'd be awesome!

Ah I see. Nice! 

My sister doesn't get it also. She asks me why I continue to collect them with a sigh and often rolls her eyes. I just say that 1) I love them (and the show!) and 2) at least it's not drugs and 3) (as my parents have pointed out) they have some resell value. If I'm in need of money, I could, in theory put one of them on eBay and make a few bucks. I've actually been thinking about selling one or two, but I'll still think about it. 

But still, as long as I have some available money to me, I'll indulge in a plush or two. And when Bronycon comes around again, blow the wad again! XD

Definitely! And many more to come as the fandom continues to grow! /)

True, there could be worse things, I think this is on the cute part of the spectrum to collect.

True, it's an emergency form of money is the need should arise and whatnot.

I hope so too! I'm going to wait until the sponsor badges are available. I'm planning to get my silver ASAP. I tried to get my silver last year, but they sold out by the time I wanted to get it, so Gold it was for me this year. Hope to see you there and maybe at another con, should I chose to go there.
