…Ontario, Canada, that is 🙂
I’m pretty new to this scene – I always loved looking at the Windstone dragons as a kid, but back then, $100+ was an astronomical figure. I couldn’t even dream of asking for one!
Now I’m happy to have been reintroduced to these guys by a friend (also on the forums). I’m so glad to know that even though I haven’t seen a Windstone Dragon for sale in ages around here, they are still being produced!
I just obtained my first Windstone – a Jade Oriental adult in the “emerald” shade. I’m absolutely in love with it, and hope to have more on the way soon.
I’m a little shy and tend to spend more time browsing than posting, but I really look forward to sticking around and seeing what this place is all about!
February 19, 2014 at 5:49 am #908973Welcome fellow Canadian! There are a few of us on here. I am from Calgary, Alberta but know some others on here are from Ontario and other places. Which city in Ont. are your from? Nice dragon you got there! I love browsing all the posts and pictures on here myself but have gone through most of them in the last year I have been on here. Are you looking for other pieces? Make sure to check out the classifieds if you are looking for any hard to find pieces or better deals than you might find on ebay and feel free to message any of us or post questions if you have any.
Looking for rainbow or pink & teal grab bags!
February 19, 2014 at 1:21 pm #908977Welcome! I am fairly new here as well but everyne I have talked to has been great. The people here are so supportive of each other!
Have fun here and happy Windstone collecting!Looking for:
"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"February 19, 2014 at 2:47 pm #908978Yes Yes Welcome!
If you’re into painting, or always wanted to try… check out the Paint Your Own (PYO) section in the store. Or, if you get any Windstones with chips or breaks and want to try your hand at repairs – there are some GREAT Forum sections just on PYOs and on Repairing Windstones. Also the forum Members here are really great at answering questions and being helpful!
Kim is also correct about checking out the Classified section for Windstones …. I’ve bought several myself from other Forum Members and have always had a good experience. In fact, my entire collection, except for my Tadpoads and my painted PYOs, are second hand from the WS Classifieds or eBay.
Have fun! 🙂

*** Come visit me on deviantArt at http://ela-hara.deviantart.comFebruary 19, 2014 at 3:17 pm #908980Welcome! Windstones are sneaky little things and like to hang around in groups. I’m sure your new dragon will have companions soon. 🙂
February 19, 2014 at 10:35 pm #909002Hello and WELCOME to one of the BEST forums on the web!! :party: Have alot of fun here and be prepared to have your collection grow fast!! 😉
February 20, 2014 at 2:15 am #909013Welcome! Where about in Ontario? I’m in Quebec near Ottawa.
February 20, 2014 at 3:53 am #909018Hey :waves: welcome to the forum. I’m in peace river, AB
February 20, 2014 at 5:45 am #909019Welcome to the community from Nova Scotia. I can relate to looking at them as a kid and not being able to afford one. Had a similar thing happen to me this summer – when I finally purchased my first Windstone after finding the website as an adult. I don’t have a Jade Oriental yet, but they are on my list… and yes, Windstones do seem to breed on their own. I had one dragon this summer, and now somehow I have 4… :p
February 20, 2014 at 11:19 pm #909036Welcome, friend! <3
As you know, I haven't been here long, but this is probably the most friendly and helpful forum I have been on in a LONG time. The people here are really fantastic. I've gotten some good buying advice and had some excellent transactions. 😀 I hope you enjoy your time here!
February 21, 2014 at 2:51 am #909042Hi Rachelled, Melody usually gets on and says hello, but one of her computers is being repaired, so I will welcome you instead. As everyone so generously points out, this is a pretty special community of enthusiasts and collectors.
February 21, 2014 at 5:29 pm #909059Welcome! ( I’m using my home computer)
February 21, 2014 at 7:57 pm #909064Welcome, rachelled, and congrats on getting your first Windstone! 🙂
Formerly had the Batman & Joker avatar!
February 21, 2014 at 8:01 pm #909063Which city in Ont. are your from? ….. Are you looking for other pieces?
I’m from New Hamburg, which is a little town south of Kitchener/Waterloo and just about an hour away from Toronto 🙂
I’m currently looking for a Jade Sun dragon to match my Jade Oriental adult! I say “Jade” but I mean the Emerald shade of the Jade listings~ However I’m realizing Sun Dragons are a little harder to come by, so any Sun/Moon would be gladly purchased once I have the funds!
Windstones are sneaky little things and like to hang around in groups. I’m sure your new dragon will have companions soon.
This seems true… I already have another on the way since joining!
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome 🙂 I look forward to sticking around!
