The old flea market does it again!

[Poster]

Yesterday, for the first time in a while, I went back to the flea market where I found my first G1 since I'd begun collecting again. There'd been ponies for a little while after that, but for the longest time since, they'd been in a serious drought--at least, whenever I happened to be there.

But yesterday was different! Found 3 G1s and 1 G3.

They're all in pretty nice condition! Fluttershy's only real issues have to do with her hair. The pink's faded, though that doesn't really bother me all that  much. The glob of rock-hard dried glue is another story.

Without an elastic holding it in place, it sticks straight out like this. Any ideas on how to remove it without taking the hair with it?

Firefly! This is actually the first time I've ever owned her. Her symbols, while not perfect, still look really good; they have nearly all their glitter, with no rust and very little fading.

Sprinkles is new to the herd, as well! I'm hoping to get that forelock to face forward at some point.

And finally, Baby Gusty. I've never been overly put off by BBEs, but even so, actually having one in hand has given me all the more appreciation for them. In person, they're really quite lovely!

I'm super happy about her. My first BBE, and her eyes are rust-free!

All together, they were less than $10 dollars. It was a nice outing.

Thanks all!

She does! I haven't always had the best luck with 30+ year old glitter, so this was a nice bonus.

There really is something special about finding ponies in that setting. It's the treasure hunt aspect, I think.

Nice finds! I love your Fluttershy and the others! Such pretty ponies!

G3 Fluttershy's been kind of high on my want list for a while. I'm glad to have her--I just hope I can get that dried glue out.
