    New collector, long time watcher, hello from California!

    Hi, I'm Khoufu! I'm 23 and have watched the classic shows for awhile. The local collectible toy store just got in a bunch of MotU toys and I just got my very first ones a few weeks ago! I got Hordack, Prince Adam, Battlecat, and Orko. All were budget options (naked, imperfections) but I don't like Battlecat's armor, and I was more than happy to improvise Adam's vest and Orko's hat out of felt.

    I love collecting vintage toys, regardless of target gender. My favorite is by far Gen 1 MLP, as I have about 100 or so of those and am on 3 MLP-dedicated forums. I also love Furbies, Care Bears, Polly Pocket, Star Trek, Star Wars, Popples, and TMNT, to name a few.

    (Also trying to figure out how to attach an image on here.)

    Thanks! I used a pattern for Adam'a vest but free-handed Orko's hat. He-fan and she-raver are amusing fan names. I hope to find some local fans cuz I only know a few local fans of girly toys.
