Title: $1.00 mimic! (No joke!) Pics added!!
Post by: PonySeeker128 on February 03, 2012, 01:47:49 PM: So, I did my rounds today at the thrift stores and found a ton of g3s which still need some serious deep cleaning and hair care, and then on my last stop I ran in quick to check and see if there was anything new in and there she was. A MIMIC in a bag with a CC cotton candy, and a Windy for $2.99 :shocked: :shocked: . Yeah, I just about had a heart attack, I thought there had to be something wrong, but nope. It really was that good!! I also got a bag with 4-speed and Firefly for $2.99 as well. They all need a little more cleaning, as they have just been cleaned with soap and water and had some minor hair brushing. Mimic has beautiful untrimmed hair with no missing hair plugs and only minor symbol rub and her eyes are in absolutely perfect condition. Windy sadly has cancer spots and some minor symbol rub but is otherwise in great condition. And cotton candy has a rattle in her body and some symbol wear. 4-speed has minor trim to the white in his mane but is otherwise wonderful. And firefly only has symbol rub. So far I havent found out if any of the stains will be set in but for the most part all of the ponies are in good condition! I also found a FF cotton candy too, she's looking a little better than the CF cotton candy. I have to say though, I am pretty excited (which is a total understatement!!) The pictures aren't the best and this is before they are cleaned, (I got mimic almost fully cleaned) So I will put up better pics later once they are all spiffy and nice looking

Post by: Unicorn_pops on February 05, 2012, 02:49:43 PM: WOW! Congrats! I don't know where everyone shops to get G1 ponies. Here I go in looking around at some places and when I find Nothing I ask. Everyone I've ever asked said that if it's a toy and is older than a few years then they aren't allowed to sell them. :(

resell stores in the us have to get older toys checked in case of lead poisoning. It is an obnoxious law and a lot of stores just dont sell any instead of sending them away to get tested. it saddens me greatly!

Post by: SunnyDazeAhead on February 06, 2012, 03:45:07 PM: What an amazing find!!! I've had several dreams where there was a Mimic on a shelf or lying on the floor in a thrift store lol I have her already but to find one for $1 is the most amazing thing ever! Congrats on your super awesome pony luck! :whoa: That's what I love about the Arena -- you find others to squee with you about a new find and they're just as excited as you are and it gives them hope they will be just as lucky. :lovey:

Post by: SuniMoon on February 06, 2012, 06:35:30 PM: Oooooh my goodness! THIS is the kind of thrift shop find that pony collectors liiiive for.
What awesome luck! :D

Heck, I'd keeping checking that thrift shop, too, if someone donated that many ponies, there might still be more in back, yet to come out. :o

But Mimic, ohhhh Mimic is gorgeous... And being found in that bag with two more common ponies really makes her pop out. :3
