Pony Corral / Re: Your 2023 collection recap!
« on: January 12, 2024, 08:20:29 AM »
I didn’t buy much last year, but I did manage to complete my US pony collection with Rapunzel.  I also added Great Hair Highlights to my non-US collection. 

For merchandise, I was very lucky to find a TE Whizzer child’s cup and a 35pc puzzle featuring babies Heart Throb, Gusty, Lickety Split, Lofty and Tutti Fruitti.   I also found a few more stickers, so just missing High Tide and Cherries Jubilee to have all G1 US pony stickers (not counting pony wear).

As my G1 pony collection gets more complete I am focusing more on original merchandise.  So much of it is rare or doesn’t come up often, and I’m so excited when I get to add new items to my collection.  I really need to upload it all somewhere to keep track. :)

Pony Corral / Re: Rapunzel - original hair style and length?

Thanks for your reply starbrite!  Wow, I love how her hair is styled!
I think the braid on your Rapunzel looks like a similar length to mine, so that is a good sign.

Pony Corral / Rapunzel - original hair style and length?
« on: January 14, 2023, 12:06:39 PM »
I’ve recently acquired Rapunzel from the seller’s childhood collection.  The seller stated she was never really allowed to play with her, so her hair should be close to original condition and style. I am mostly seeking opinions on the mane - her braid reaches the bottom of her front foot when I pull it straight, and her mane curls seem to be close to that length when I try to pull them down.  The braid is missing its rubber band, so I am unsure if it disintegrated over time or if it may have been trimmed. 

Here are some photos - I would love any input, especially from anyone who has her, or has had her in the past.  :)

Oops - just realized I posted in the wrong spot, so sorry! I will re-post in the correct forum. :blush:

Pony Corral / Re: Your 2022 collection recap!
« on: January 10, 2023, 06:18:42 PM »
I didn’t add much to my collection in 2022, but most notable for me were:

Finishing my G1 US collection (last few ponies in the mail)
Adding more original G1 stickers to my collection, including Yr 3 adult sea pony puffy stickers that I’ve been wanting for years (under 10 puffy/flat pony stickers left on my list)
Adding some scarce G1 merchandise, including roller skates in original box, Cotton Candy cassette player, and a htf Euro sheet set

My next goals will probably be completing the pony lines exclusive to U.K./Europe, and getting more cool G1 merchandise.  :)

Pony Corral / Re: Who is your ultimate grail (March 2022)?

This will probably sound cliché, but Rapunzel.  She is the last G1 pony I need to complete my US collection. I really shouldn’t have delayed buying her, she’s gone up so much in price since I first started collecting. 
Next in line for ponies would Italian sea pony Ambra Marina with shell to complete my sea pony collection with shells.
And my current accessories/merchandise goal is to complete my US pony sticker collection on original backing, less than 10 to go (and 3 are adult sea pony stickers, so that may take a while)… 😕

Just posting an update!  Found a few stickers thanks to a lovely Arena member and a few more on eBay. Just need 4 more to have all US pony stickers!  And another 8 to upgrade if possible.

Thank you for looking!  I appreciate any help.

I would appreciate any help finding these! If you have any leads on them please let me know.

Pony Corral / Price check vintage pins, pendants and stampers
« on: December 07, 2020, 03:37:40 PM »
Hello,

I have some original G1 figure stampers, charms and pins that are extras I would like to sell. Unfortunately it’s been a while since I’ve actively bought or sold these so I’m unfamiliar with current values. Could anyone help me out?

For reference, pics of the charms/pins can be found on the MLP wiki:

http://mylittlewiki.org/wiki/Jewelry

I can take pics of my items but I’m not sure where to host them since photobucket went bad..

Here is what I have:

Pin/pendants:
Medley charm, some wear to ears and side of face/eyes, loop still intact and paint on body in good shape
Twilight charm, wear to middle of symbols, top of tail paint, bow paint.  Wear to ears and one eye looks misprinted, body looks a little yellowed. Loop still intact
Twilight charm, wear to middle of symbol, part of purple stripe and bow. Pin intact
French Peachy charm, still mint on card, little misprint of paint on hair

I also have many extra Mommy charms, not the rare one for Sweet Scoops but extras of most of the rest

Stampers:
Sky dancer, stamper shape intact but no bottom (the part that would have the ink pad).  Pink ink staining on right side wing/symbol area, also lighter staining on left side.  Paint is good with a little wear to mane and tail.
Moon dancer, entire bottom of stamper missing. Paint and body in good shape, small marks near symbols.
Firefly, stamper bottom damaged on edges, bottom part missing, body looks to be repainted a darker matte pink similar to movie firefly? Hair and bow paint intact with some small wear


Thanks for any help!

Pony Corral / Re: How many G1 baby ponies are in your collection??
« on: August 01, 2020, 09:01:59 PM »
Doing a rough count, I believe I have around 240-250 G1 babies in my collection if we are counting baby sea ponies too.  I have all US release, plus most non-US (non-Nirvana) release (missing some Dutch release babies, sweetie babies, jewelry babies, seaside babies and the babies from the Surprise twins mom and babies set).  Of the Nirvana babies I have 3 Brazilian babies and 4 Argentinian babies.

I love the baby sets!  I grew up with BBE babies so I’ve always been fond of them even though I know they are unpopular.   I’ve even grown to love the teeny tiny baby ponies.

MLP Nirvana / Re: Have you ever found a Nirvana pony in the wild?
« on: July 17, 2020, 08:07:18 PM »
I found Italian Polly (White with pink hearts) at an antique fair near where I live in the US for $2!  Still my most amazing find in the wild.  I could never sell her, it was love at first sight!  I still wonder what her life before me was like, to end up here where I am.

« on: June 23, 2020, 09:02:58 PM »
For US release I am after Rapunzel, she is the last mail order as well as the last htf/rare US pony I need.  After her I only need 35 ponies to complete my US collection.  :)

For international/nirvana, French Firefly is top of the list as she’s the last French pony I need to have the complete ‘regular release’ French ponies (not counting the rare variants like reverse Bowtie etc).
