Over two months after UK PonyCon 2024 closed its doors, I am finally rounding off my con report! You already know that I thought the convention was a very good one, with a few little irritations vastly outweighed by all the good stuff. And here is some of that good stuff! I didn't have the funds to buy a lot this year, but here's what I did acquire. This photo was taken in my hotel room (on the bed, as there wasn't room anywhere else!) hence the poor lighting and foreshortened appearance. The orange numbers correspond to the explanations below:
1 – Sundance G1 brushable. Normal size, not as tiny as she looks in the photo!
2 – UK PonyCon 2024 T-shirt, size XL.
3 – Con book. Particularly nicely produced this year.
4 – Small original Celestia canvas by Carousel Wishes.
5 – Saturday night concert guide leaflet.
6a to 6d¹ – A4 prints by JowyB. (The Fluttershy one was a gift from a friend.)
7 – Bronze Sponsor lanyard and con badge.
8 – Bronze Sponsor button badge.
9 – Scootatrix "Got Meegan" badge and business card.
10 – "He/him" and "Want a hug? Ask" free stickers.
11 – Cute sticker from the freebies table.
12 – Business card for KNAB.
13 –"Gen1us" ribbon, only available to attendees of the Scootertrix panel.
14 – Celestia marker pen drawing by Sparkler.
15 – Sponsor bonus sticker sheet.
16 – UKPC 20th anniversary mug.
¹ 6d was erroneously labelled 8d. Go me.
Next time... well, there won't be a next time! Not until and unless I attend next year, anyway...
I love that you say you didn't have a lot of spend and yet have such a great outlay! So many lovely items. n_n

Well, quite a few things were freebies, or were included in my Bronze Sponsor ticket, so in terms of actual merch buying there wasn't a lot. The T-shirt (£20) was the most expensive single item here.
5822105 Hahaha fair! Glad you got such good stuff, whether from the merch hall, or from your ticket. n_n
The Sundance G1 brushable is the cream of the swag haul! So, how come Sundance and not someponyelse, like Posey (assuming you don't already have her)?

I think I got her from an older UKPC, but I can't remember offhoof.
I've had a G1 Posey for many years already!
Why Sundance? Because she's so associated with Megan (in the show, and as part of a playset) and so it amused me given the Scootatrix G1 panel this time.

A most excellent reason to acquire Sundance this time around. ^_^
