saturday fakie finds
« on: October 15, 2016, 05:15:41 PM »
went to value village again today, despite the rain and 50mph winds  :cold:
I also went to the salvtion armies but found ZIP in all three of them.

I was very startled by value village's selection, it was almost ENTIRELY fakies! i found several bags, some with walgreens fakies, some with just really strange looking girls...I only grabbed one bag because i noticed a real g3 in the mix, so i bought that. as much as i love fakies, i'm not trying to spend 20$ on ponies not worth it.
Here's what i found:

as you can see, i managed to grab a sand dollar. She's pretty scuffed up, but nothing unfixable. her hair is Very frazzled however, i'm afraid i'll have to rehair her. There's just no saving that tinsel.

then i got these weird g3/g3.5 fakies. The g3 one is pretty cute, she's going to make a nice custom some day, once i get rid of that yucky green cutie mark and face mark. She still has glitter on her wings, which is awesome, but her hair is even worse condition than sanddollars. She's quite convincing looking- she looks like a stolen g3 pegasus mold!

The g3.5 is really quite silly looking, i mean, even for a g3.5. Her tail is in the completely wrong place!! and her cutie mark is just..abstract shapes? I noticed her on The Fakie Guide as a "Lovely Horse", and she came with legos in her box. However when i ripped out her tail, i noticed that it was indeed a whole hank, instead of a rooted one like the pink girl. even if her tail hole was way off..

aside from that i got two g4s, a mcdonalds starlight glimmer, and a weird twilight play-doh stamp. I was a little shocked i got 5 different ponies all in one bag for under 10 dollars. even if most of them are fakies.

thank you! and yes, i am liking her more too. she has some weird orange markings on her sides that wont come off, its only slightly a different color than her skin, im thinking it might be regrind. We'll see how it does against the acetone though.

That G3.5's wings look so funny! She wouldn't be able to get very far on them if she wanted to fly...
Sand Dollar looks cute.

I know!!  they are positively tiny. they are also weirdly close together? I noticed that the wings are actually one U-shaped thing they shrunk and stuck on a g3 mold.

i was quite surprised with the finds at this thrift store up here! I'm from california, where i know that thrifting is like, a hobby. So ponies go quick. but this store...It's about the size of a ross? or a small department store? the whole back wall is JUST toys.
