Pony Corral / Lansing Michigan Pony Meet September 22
« on: August 11, 2018, 04:06:28 PM »
Hello!  This year's Michigan Pony meet will be held on Saturday September 22nd from 9:00-5:00.  Please click the link below to be taken to the  Facebook event invite.  We're going to have tons of fun and hope to see you all there!   

Here is everything I've figured out so far:

The meet will be held on Saturday September 22 from 9:00-5:00 in Bath Mi.  Go to the FB invite or message me for the address.

Admission to the meet is $5.00 per person.

Table rental is $5.00 per table with a limit of 2 tables per person. Tables and chairs will be provided.

Lunch will be catered. I'm still working the details out but most likely it will be a taco and nacho bar.

There will be lots of time for trading and selling (that's my favorite!)

I am not planning on any custom or art contests at this time. We will probably have a game or two but they will be very low key. This meet will be mostly about socializing and hanging out.

More details to come as I figure them out!

Wanted! / WTB SS Angel and Taffy
« on: May 13, 2017, 07:28:10 PM »
I am looking for a mint condition Taffy and Angel.  Flocking in tact (at least 99% of it) and no yellowing.  Nice hair a must, original curl would be amazing.  I will pay VERY well for these girls.  Mint ones have been evading me for years!  Please send me a PM if you can help me and I'll make it worth your while  :biggrin: .

Pony Corral / Solution for displaying a large MOC collection?
« on: May 08, 2017, 03:50:28 PM »
I'm preparing to move back into my house in the next few weeks.  It burnt down in the spring of last year and we've been rebuilding since.  Thankfully the majority of my pony collection escaped the flames and the benefit of building a new house is that we got to design it and include a pony room for me!  I have a very large collection.  A complete loose G1 US and UK collection and a large amount of MOCs which are my true passion.  My collection has been in totes for the last 6 years and it's amazing how much it's grown in that time!  I really want to display the majority of my MOCs but I'm stumped, both from a space standpoint and a safety standpoint.  In my last pony room I had a large peg board with metal rods on it.  I stacked the MOCs on the rods so they were standing upright.  It was so awesome to flip through them like they were in store aisles again!  I'm concerned about that long term though.  I don't want gravity to eventually separate the pony from the card. 

Those of you with large MOC collections on display what is your solution?  Pics would be awesome if you have them!

Thanks!

Price Check Archives / PC on Princess Serena with accessories
« on: June 02, 2015, 03:55:26 PM »
Hey there!

I'm pricing ponies for the fair and I'm wondering what the going rate for princess Serena with wand, hat and bushwoolie would be?  No pics but her hair is still pink.  It's slightly rough with a little bit of crinkly tinsel but overall she's in really good shape.

Pony Corral / Are there two versions of Star Glow?
« on: May 24, 2015, 02:43:46 PM »
So I apologize up front that I cannot post pictures.  I upgraded my Mac which was a huge mistake because the new upgrade doesn't support Iphoto.  So until I figure that out no pictures for me.  :cry:

I recently received a lot of ponies from Ebay which included a beautiful Star Glow.  My plan was to resell her however I always compare extras to my collection to make sure I am keeping the best condition pony (it's the picky collector in me).  While comparing the two ponies I realized the one I received in the lot is a very pretty blue and the one in the my collection is more of a dull green color.  I think the one in my collection might just be faded but before she gets selected for re sale I wanted to check and make sure there is not a second version of this pony?  Any help is appreciated.  :)

Off Topic / I just booked a Disney Cruise for my family!
« on: May 10, 2015, 11:14:24 AM »
I am super excited!  My husband and I are surprising our three boys with a cruise just after Christmas this year!  We are not telling them until we get to the airport.  In fact we have concocted an elaborate scheme where they will think it is a normal morning and they are getting ready for school. The car will be packed and loaded the night before so they will not suspect a thing!  Instead of "taking Dad to work before school" we will actually be driving to the airport and we will tell them what is really happening once we park the car and are ready to go inside.  I am so excited for this I can hardly sit still.....and it's still almost 8 months away!!!  I'm going to capture the whole thing on camera.  It is going to be priceless and epic!!!

Price Check Archives / PC on a few MOC UK ponies
« on: March 28, 2015, 07:21:50 AM »
Hello,

I am not looking to sell these.  I'm looking to put a value on these to add them to my collection insurance.  Anyone have an idea?  I've had them for several years and picked them up very cheap by todays MOC standards.  I'm really not sure where to price them. Any help is appreciated. :)

I also have MOC Sports Time I would love a price for.  No picture of him atm as he is packed away but he is in excellent condition.  Bubble is firmly attached and the card is straight. 

Thank you!

Pony Corral / Sunfaders…what do you use?
« on: February 01, 2015, 10:39:22 AM »
Hello!

I just got the most amazing Cherry Treats from Ebay.  She is super bright white with silky hair.  She is so gorgeous I can't stop looking at her.  The problem is on her NDS where she has two purple ink marks.  I want to try sun fading the marks.  It has been many years since I have attempted to sun fade a pony.  I find that the longer I collect the more fussy I get about looking for and buying ponies that are mint and require no work.  I'm willing to make an exception with this girl though because she is so amazing.  When I sun faded several years ago I used Remove-Zit but it looks like that product is no longer available.  I have heard collectors in the past say they have used zit cream but I don't know which brand to use.  Any advice of what had works well for you would be appreciated.  Also does anyone know if Cherry Treats is prone to sunburn?  I would rather leave the purple marks on her then mess up the whiteness in those two areas. 

Thanks!

Pony Corral / Gusty's Voice
« on: January 12, 2015, 02:58:38 PM »
I'm feeling a little under the weather today so I called off work and spent the day watching G1 MLP cartoon epodes and the MLP movie.  I love Gusty's voice!  I did a little research and discovered that the actress who voiced Gusty is also the voice of Bart Simpson.  I can totally hear the resemblance!  This might have been discussed before but it is news to me so I felt like sharing.   :)

On a different note I had forgotten how mean the ponies could be to each other.  In the MLP movie when Shady thinks she is responsible for the smooze, Gusty keeps insisting that she is even when the others say it's not her fault.  I felt so bad for Shady!  The 80's knew how to keep it real though.  Now on Nickelodeon you can be sure that would have been a whole episode centered around Gusty's mean behavior and how that hurt Shady's feelings.  I do understand that is important behavior for children to learn but I appreciated that Gusty stated her feelings and the show moved on.

It was a nostalgic trip down memory lane today.  I need to watch MLP more often!
