EQUIVALENT PONY INFO:
I am accepting ponies as payment, including ponies from my wishlist (preferably my priority wishlist) as well as white bait ponies - preferably sweetheart sister, bride, or G2. I will also accept HQG1C glitter bases (especially the rearing unicorn), and the HQG1C valentine's day ponies. The cost of shipping will be included when evaluating the value. It's not something I'm familiar with doing, but I want to try.

I would really love to get my hands on some replacement tinsel for my G3 ponies but everywhere I look I only find replacements for G1 and G2 ponies, including on the Preservation Project. I don't know if no one's noticed the difference or there's just no supply, but it would break my heart to use G1-style tinsel for G3 restorations and customs when I've always loved the G3-style tinsel.

Try as I might, I can't find a suitable replacement for this kind of tinsel on my own. Can we use our collective powers to try and track something down?


So what's the difference? (My apologies for photo quality, it's the best I can do at night.)

In the first image I've used two G1 ponies, but the tinsel is the same for G2s. It's flat, shiny, completely opaque, and the colors are vibrant and wildly different depending on the pony.

In the second image is a G3 pony with tinsel. It's flat, holographic, transparent, and is the same on every pony. It's a bit difficult to properly capture its traits on camera, but when the light hits it it mostly appears to have a pale blue-green color, but will show other pale colors depending on the angle. It reminds me of the tinsel you find in an easter basket.

(Gosh this makes it look like I just have tinsel ponies everywhere haha, but um..... well, maybe I kinda do. I love tinsel ponies.)

I just got my order of a bunch of G2 ponies, including one Mint in Bag/Box (box had already been opened but I think most things inside had not) G2 Queen Sunsparkle (glittery) and quickly noticed she was sticking to the bag. When I pulled the bag away from her I could tell something was definitely wrong, the bag was discolored and had that pattern on it that you get when you pull wet glue away. I had to take her out, and when I did I realized it was way worse than I thought, most of her is sticky, especially her back legs.

What do I do?! Can I fix this? I'm a little worried that if I tried to clean her off it would either make things worse or remove the glitter. At the moment I've just stood her up to give her a little air.

 

Isolation's really taking it's toll. On everyone, I know - people just aren't meant to socially isolate like this and definitely not for extended periods of time. My own Covid-like isolation's been going on for about six straight years due to extenuating circumstances. For a long time I had online friends and PTSD to keep me distracted from my isolation-related declining mental health, but both of those are gone now. I've been without even any online friends since around December 2019, and the effects it's having on me just keep becoming more and more clear and cute cat videos are only doing so much to keep it at bay.

I just need someone to talk to. Maybe we could talk about holidays, or ponies, or anything really. We could talk about movies even, I don't watch movies but I can watch recommendations and chat about them if you want. Is there anything you guys are excited about? Any crafts you're working on? I know I've been thinking about fixing up one of my adoptable designs and offering that, heck maybe even trying to revive an old Rave Ponies thing I once did on DA, but I've been a little on the fence since I told myself I was going on an "online art hiatus".

So I didn't exist when G1 was around. By the time G3 was out, perhaps in its late years, I was going back and watching G1 myself, but I.... don't really feel like I ever really understood it. There are a lot of things I like about it, but I don't feel like I see the same things in it that everyone else does. I never really understood how people fell for Firefly the one time she ever showed up, or why everyone seemed to like Gusty so much even though she generally just seems to be a grouch in the show from what I can tell.

I love G1 and a lot of what it has to offer, I've especially been getting into the comics lately, but I want to understand how and why people got into the show the way they did. It's something I've been curious about for years. o: Is it all nostalgia? What do/did you like about G1? Who are your favorite characters, and what about them makes you like them so much? Do you like them only for what you saw in the show, or do you see something more in the characters? And, I pose these same questions for the world itself, too, if you really like the world the ponies live in. c:

I'm so curious about the minds of those of you who had the opportunity to be fans of G1 while it was first being aired. I would absolutely love to hear anything you have to say about it!
