Off Topic / Re: I can't draw today.
« on: January 27, 2012, 07:38:18 PM »
I've felt like this for a long time unfortunately :[ I think I've drawn...2 things? In 6 months? It's really a shame because I don't lack for ideas, just motivation.

I just thought of another one. This isn't a thrift store but it was still awesome. I was at a country fair that had some flea market type booths. I find six beautiful Wing ponies (including Cool Breeze) in stunning condition, along with two dream beauties. i think I only paid $8 for all of them.
@_@ Jealous! What county fair was this?

I never seem to have any luck whatsoever, apart from when I formally decided to start collecting. I found a bag with Retro Cotton Candy and Butterscotch (in my sales thread and en route to Ireland for lilcutiepie, respectively) Bumbleberry and Sno-Glo. After that...nothing. I found a large baby, not quite sure who, but she closed her eyes when her head turned and seemed to be wearing pajamas and two playsets at a Value Village near me, but didn't buy them. However, a friend of mine visited that same Value Village once and brought me back a bag with G1 Flutterwings Lily (newly up in my sales thread), G1 Rattles and Tattles and G3 Garden Glade! I was very pleasantly surprised, and quite often wish I could have similar luck!

Good luck looking- thrift stores are so touch and go.

It's probably because I'm getting there first! :P I check both Value Villages (Fenton and Shrewsbury) fairly religiously. That poor ugly walking pinkie has been there forever. So far I've found 6 G1's and lots of other generations between the two stores.

Almost all of my 200+ ponies are from thrift stores/flea markets, so I will spare posting them haha.
SO IT WAS YOU!!!!! lol jk. Wanna be friends? I'll prolly be there tomorrow.
Muahah  :lol:  We really need to organize a meetup or just get coffee or something, I know of at least 4 other people in this area and a few more in the surrounding counties. Put it on our new years resolution list!


I avoided value village yesterday, since it was the last Wed of the month which means half off and everything gets wiped out in an hour x.x


I had some great finds yesterday, will post pics when later when I get around to taking them!

I re-iterate the "SQUUEEEE *dies*" sentiment! :biggrin:


I think he looks great, even with the troll hair. That, on Hasbro's part, was most certainly an effort to make him less feminine and having long flowy locks doesn't exactly scream masculine. I actually don't think it looks bad. Overall he looks great though, it was a little worrisome when the blind bag boys looked a wee bit odd, but I've definitely grown used to them.


Princess Cadence looks absolutely flawless and I'm super excited to have the both of them eventually!!

XDDD Poor Beachberry! I noticed their heads were attached this way but I've never attempted to pull one off. I just cut all mine out of the darn packaging!  >_<

RAMChYLD Oh my gosh I usually don't like any of the new LPS but that little dragon looks really cute! Do you have any more pics of him?
Well, not at the moment. But If you want, I'll just take more pictures of him in the box. I'm not planning to unbox him. Toys R Us was giving these away for purchases of Hasbro toys totaling over RM80 in a single receipt (and just buying the two train cars qualified me). Claimed they were limited edition LPS pets.

Box shows signs of being an European packaging tho (round age rating, Multiple European languages, CE and sad onion). Product ID 37497.
Ah, no worries I found him on ebay and some youtube videos too. He's awesome!  XD


Wannnnt! @_@

I've found tons of McDonalds, a styling Rarity, and a Fluttershy  :)

It's weird to me that these are already being gotten rid of, but I suppose they might have just gotten one and not liked it. I'm also finding Mcdonalds Hello kitty, that were JUST released.

I think that Hasbro will most likely release her at some point. She's not a risky pony to release you know? If they look at past productions of her she has always been extremely popular and I think they are safe in assuming she will be popular again. I bet because of their awareness of her popularity she will be included as an extra in a more expensive set as an incentive to buy it. Hopefully I'm wrong though and she comes out as a single :P and soon! We never thought we'd get the blind bags here in the US, and that's happening now.

Pony Corral / Re: Anyone have any selling or buying luck on Etsy?
« on: January 19, 2012, 05:59:34 PM »
I haven't sold ponies personally, but as a seller of handcrafted items I've sold over 200 things so far :) So it is reliable for at least that, maybe advertising on here would help.

Pony Corral / Re: US Blind Bag Release Index- Where have they been found?
« on: January 18, 2012, 06:02:11 PM »
Hey guys! I am in Missouri and I just found them in the town of Washington at Wal-Mart. I checked the Wal-Mart in Kirkwood yesterday with no luck. However it would be worth checking soon since they are still redoing their toy mod.
Awww. Kirkwood Walmart is my walmart. *eardroop*
Mine too! :P Well, one of mine. Although it's all jank now because of the construction. Their toy aisle is severely limited. I prefer the one in Richmond Heights. ^^
