Title: Truly NSS
Post by: Deerhunter on November 28, 2016, 11:42:22 AM
Hello
(Excuse my ignorance).. Would a Truly non so soft be a nirvana pony? Could I put her up here for sale, or just a regular sale?

I had her up for auction on e bay but she didn't sell. I had a lot of questions and interest but no one seemed to bit. Would anyone here be interested in making some offers. If yes, I'll post some pics.. I will probably do that anyway.

Thanks
Xxx

NSS Truly is considered a nirvana pony if she is the version from Scandinavia and not a deflocked one :)

Yes, she's not de-flocked.. She's the real deal. I'll put up pics tomorrow to see if anyone here is interested.

She was also available in Australasia as well as Scandinavia :)

From what I remember, I believe some were sold in South Africa too.

Are all the NSS ponies Nirvana? :O I've had NSS Shady for the longest time and I've always wondered if she was considered Nirvana.  :what:

Shady with out flocking was released in Europe as part of the "Movie Star" set, along with Gusty, Wind Whistler and North Star etc. She was also released as part of the "My Little Pony: Pony Friends" which was sold in Scandinavia and a few other places.

The "non so soft" ponies are not nirvana, but rather regional exclusive ponies. They were put under the nirvana umbrella when the term "nirvana" was coined. Now we understand more about their release pattern, they are not really considered nirvana ;) Truly and Cupcake are hard to find though and pretty special ^.^

Here is some more information on Truly :)

Wow I didn't know this. I have had NSS Truly on my wanted list for so long, but I just assume she was a UK regular pony and not a Nirvana.  I also have NSS Cupcake on my list.  I seem to learn something new every day.  This also makes me wonder if I will ever get this pony lol as I have wanted her for a long time.  I am only slowly starting to collect Nirvana ponies.

:) I am glad this thread has been helpful.

Truly is a bit of a "grey area" pony, as she was put under the nirvana umbrella when the term was coined. Since then we have come to understand her release pattern, we now understand she is an exclusive release, rather than a nirvana in the "true" sense. This is because she was made in Hong Kong, rather than any of the other countries that we associate with nirvanas. :)

Don't despair, she crops up more often than you think! Try searching for her in the Scandinavian countries as that was one of the places she and Cupcake was distributed ^.^

Sometime eBay isn't always the best place to find some ponies. You will have more luck on a collectors Facebook page or the Scandinavian version of eBay,  whose name I have forgotten :blush:
