Is there such a thing as Party Time withOUT regrind??

[kCherry]

I've never seen this pony without regrind. Does she exist? I would love to see pictures if anyone has a minty PT!

[hathorcat]

No

And anyone who claims otherwise...pop your PT in a bright light or under a black light and be prepared.

LOL - this pony may be the one that makes me bitter.

[kCherry]

Well, that would explain why I can't find one for like, nine years!!

  I'd be happy to see pictures of a PT that doesn't appear to have regrind, though. No bright/ black light necessary! hee

I had one from my childhood that looked perfect (to the untrained eye! lol) but had to sell her a couple years ago when bills were tight.

I remember when this thread came up several months ago.... I KNEW my Party Time was PERFECT when I had stuffed her away safely some time ago.... I rushed to take her out and take a picture of my perfect PT.......
And yeah, needless to say I was greatly disappointed

Finding a Party Time without regrind would be amazing, like finding a real unicorn! The sad part would be never knowing how long it's going to last. I would be constantly checking a minty Party Time, worried that she's doomed to develop her spots one day.

It's cheating, but I do have a Party Time who is sort of regrind-free. Some other catastrophe befell her plastic though. Instead of getting her signature pink splotches, her entire body color faded out to a light, peachy-orange tone instead. (Kinda like the color difference between US Speedy vs. German Speedy.) Her head is still the usual bright orange with plenty of regrind. But I'm holding on to her in case I ever find a Party Time in the opposite situation, and I can give my little faded weirdo a matching head.

I'll take regrind over pvc breakdown anyday of the week.

I had one once and she was perfect now she has bad regrind. I do feel a little hopeful though that maybe she might just turn a all over light orange color. I also gave up on ever finding another because of this issue.

In some ways I think I'd rather have a Party Time that already has regrind.  Then at least you aren't always afraid the inevitable will happen and she'll one day get it.

At least the hot pink doesn't show up TOO much on the orange.

Yup - this.  It would always be a waiting game to see when she succumbs to the plague that follows her around.

Yes, there was a thread about this recently, and I think a couple of people shared pics of Party Time without the appearance of regrind.

LOl, that would be a match made in heaven! Hope you do find one like that some day and make a minty, slighly lighter version without regrind.

You have just solved the puzzle of my Speedy.  Didn't realise she was an alternate - I just thought she had crazy regrind!

I have to agree with this. I got my Party Time post regrind and once I learned what the mysterious spots were I wasn't as bummed out about her being "marked up" especially since it's an issue that effect ALL of them and there's nothing you can do to stop it.

I"m unsure how bright her original color was but mine doesn't seem to have AS many pinkish/yellow blotches on her, even in bright light. It's only a matter of time, though.

Same here!
