    …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!

      Welcome 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!

        Yes 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! 🙂

        IN SEARCH OF MY NEXT GRAILS:
        Black Peacock & Butternut Adult Poads
        Kickstarter 'Rainbow Tiger' Bantam Dragon

          Welcome! Windstones are sneaky little things and like to hang around in groups. I’m sure your new dragon will have companions soon. 🙂

                Welcome 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

                  Welcome, 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!

                    Hi 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.

                        Which 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!
