Ooh, she is beautiful. The metal washer and fastener kind of nod to me that it's original. Collectors will generally use materials that won't rust like plastic (not to mention how much cheaper and easier to use a zip tie is compared to that metal clamp).

What a find!

Nice! I have one myself that I find at Hot Topic, and I gotta say, I love her!

I'm Excreto! I love drawing ponies and have a slowly growing, yet still decently sized collection of ponies. I hope to try my hand at customs soon, as well.
My collection is mostly G4, but my biological mother has been sending me some older gens as well, which I identify, clean and display proudly. My favorite ponies are G1's Barnacle, G3's Minty, and G4's Cherry Jubilee. My dream is to one day live in a house that's completely decked out in MLP goodness. I hope to share my art and overall pony love with you all!
