Title: Replacement G2 eye crystals
Post by: Pierlala on September 12, 2017, 07:22:13 AM
Hello,

Does anyone know where to get replacement eyes for G2 ponies? Some og my childhood ones are missing theirs. I would love them in the origonal color, but I don't mind just the diamond looking ones. They look sad now without their sparkling eyes.

Thanks in advance!

I believe someone here (a customizer) used to sell replacements.... bumping for information.

I did some digging and found people saying buy crystal that are "point backed stones  in the size of 2.5 mm "

An older thread mentioned this site... http://www.firemountaingems.com/ but I'm sure there are other suppliers.

Here is an older thread on the issue: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,348809.0.html

Silly photobucket is making a lot of the images unable to be seen >.<

You can also find the Gems over at Artbeads. I think Firemountain only deals with bulk .
Artbeads has both the flat backs and the pointy backs. I forgot what size for the pointy backs are need.. I'll have to look at my last purchase of those XD

Seem to remember someone saying Swarovski crystals were a perfect match to original G2 eyes for a number of colours.
