I want her! She will finish my 1983 earth pony set :) I really love her colour combination, and the blaze on her nose  ^.^

I have her, several customs and variants.

I guess I should have ticked army!

She was the pony I always wanted as a child, but never got and the first pony I bought when I started collecting :)

Love pkw xxx

Have her. She's so pretty and unique! One of my favorites and she was a minor grail.

She was one of my childhoods ponies, the old lady of the bunch because she looks like a relaxed friendly grandma to me. She is the mom of my Baby Tiddlywinks,  and currently she's also an astronaut.

I love the sitting ponies!  I wanted Bubbles and Seashell so badly as a kid.

Have her! I actually got her as a complete surprise once when i purchased another pony, she came wrapped up with it! She's in not the best shape, but for free that's okay with me : ) I used to not like the sitting ponies until I got her, now I love it.

I have her, but my goodness, despite having several go through my hands I have never been able to get one in decent condition! She always either has discolouration or head/body mismatch most commonly. Or marks or bad hair!  :lol: 

My Italian one fares much better, but I still live in hope that a very nice, simple US one will find her way to me  :)

Yes, and italian. Sister also has a couple I think. I am not a fan of this pose though. Seashell was SO CUTE in the Uk stories, but I dunno. I never liked the sitting pose that much and would have really loved her in a different pose.

She's purple and ocean-themed - right up my alley! I haven't got her yet though, despite some near-misses. Whenever I've found her in the past, she's had the dreaded head-body mismatch. :drunk:

Her tail is cut, but I've got her! I would take a picture if I weren't so cold.

Got her! She's a classic;
would be so interesting to see her in a non-sitting pose.  :)

Here she is, all dressed up as an astronaut! (Fitting since I only have 2 shoes for it.) Perfect attire to watch the Falcon Heavy launch an hour ago.

I have her and love her but, I think mine is faded alot shes not as pretty or a brighter purple. I think I need to upgrade her.
Title: Re: POTD 2/6/18 Seashell
Post by: Gator on February 06, 2018, 04:44:13 PM
Have her and I think an Italian?  Love the blaze, wish more ponies had blazes, snips and stars!  Wish she had been on Rescue at Midnight Castle too!  When I was younger and a noob to ebay, I though I was buying a moc US Seashell.  I didn't know much about nirvanas or ponies from overseasback then.  What arrived was this pony with ugly eyes (no offense to variant collectors) and cracked, yellowed, coming unglued bubble on a moldy card with artwork that didn't match what I was used to.  I still have her.  If she's valuable these days, maybe I should sell or trade?

I've got her as a "Diamond Blaze Family" member :lol:

Salty and Mainsail look like a cute pair in that picture, like they're related.

Pass. I must be in the minority. I never cared for the sitting pose.
Title: Re: POTD 2/6/18 Seashell
Post by: Featherwurm on February 06, 2018, 06:54:35 PM
I have both her, and I really love the seated pose ponies, I think it's very sweet, pity they didn't play well, and seemed to make Hasbro shy away from vastly different poses from just standing.

I have her: one of the first 'replacements' I bought for my mysteriously missing childhood herd. I think I got lucky with her: she is still in pretty good condition.

I also have a *very* baity girl who is extremely faded who I was thinking of turning into Taffeta's purple Minty. She was purple, right? I have to go and look that up...

She was purple :D Although the fading might mean you need to redye the body as the fact file image is VERY purple.
Would be awesome to see when you're done though. I have always wanted that Minty to exist since I was a kid, she was the only minty I knew about till I encountered Miss Pea Soup at the carboot sale and wondered why her symbol matched Minty...

Also, Night Glider, what is your Powder doing with a silver horn? Does she think it's still the eighties or is she just reeally enthusiastic over art and craft? ;) XD

Taffeta, Nightglider,
Purple Minty? My friend has one but it's G3, in a sitting pose, so that's what I thought you meant at first.

Yay! I loved that look on her when you posted in the other thread  :) - Khoufu, Taffeta can tell you better as it is her memory but there is a fact file card for G1 Minty that actually shows her as purple.

And Powder... yes. She is one of my 3 'unlost' childhood herd members. And apparently I felt that her horn needed to be silver. And, well, there you are then  :blush:
Title: Re: POTD 2/6/18 Seashell
Post by: Taffeta on February 07, 2018, 11:20:19 AM
Silver is good. No problem with that xD.

@Khoufu, in the UK in 1987 we had a horseshoe point offer to send off for a binder which contained pages for all the ponies (allegedly) out at that time, 125 I think, and each of them had a picture and a story. In that file, Minty looks like this...

Great photo Ruru. Who is the adorable lying down fakie?

She's not a fakie, she's a baby Keyper.  :)  The Keypers were a line of critters that had a secret compartment so you could hide "treasures" in them.  They did a lot better in the UK / Europe than in the US.
Title: Re: POTD 2/6/18 Seashell
Post by: Taffeta on February 07, 2018, 11:31:40 AM
I think her name is Glitter. I remember the adult horse was Diamond (the original one anyway) and I think the baby is Glitter but I don't remember. There were a few horses and some of them didn't get names.
Title: Re: POTD 2/6/18 Seashell
Post by: ColdRuru on February 07, 2018, 02:26:39 PM
Thanks you for your kind comments about my pictures!
And yes it's a baby keyper nammed Glitter.

Post by: SweetScoops on February 08, 2018, 01:15:44 AM
I like her! I have never seen her in good enough condition for me to get her though, since I'm overly picky with my collection. But the colors and the pose are soo nice <3
Title: Re: POTD 2/6/18 Seashell
Post by: starstrider on February 12, 2018, 07:26:44 AM
Love her.  I only have the HK version of Seashell.  Love the white star on their noses, too!  Such a shame they didn't make other ponies in this seated pose, it's adorable. Wonder if it was because of the Pony Wear outfits weren't properly wearable on the seated pony pose?

I love the sitting pose but somehow I never got round to getting Seashell. I wouldn't mind getting her one day but she's not a priority.

ColdRuru, your photos are great!! I love the Lucky Star accessories, never noticed how perfectly pony-sized they are before :)
