Pony Corral / Price Check on loose gifts from UK G2 magazines!!
« on: June 23, 2020, 01:37:59 PM »
I've scoured the price check archives, but couldn't find anything on the loose gifts alone.

These don't come with the magazines and are all opened:

Does anyone have any idea how much they're worth?

Pony Corral / If you could tweak the color scheme...
« on: May 09, 2020, 11:40:27 AM »
I wanted to start a fun topic  ^.^ Sometimes there's a pony, and you feel like they would look so much better if you just slightly altered their color scheme.

For example, I've always thought it would be cool for Miss Painter from G2 to have the 3 primary colors as her color scheme, given she's a painter:

So if you could alter a color scheme for a pony from any gen, what would you do and why?

(Last Updated: 05/30/20)

Hello all! Recently I posted some questions about sunfading G2, and I appreciate all the responses I got  ^.^



I've decided to go on ahead with my little experiment and to document the progress here for all to see and comment on (for instance if you notice I'm making a HUGE mistake, please let me know  :blush: )

-I'm absolutely new to this and inexperienced so I accept all kind constructive criticism and advice :) I hope this little endeavor can also be helpful to other newbies who are debating whether to try sunfading G2s  :biggrin:

Alright so for this adventure, I'm going to try a variety of techniques of sunfading I've seen done by others on the following ponies:

- Teddy(sunfading since 04/29/20)- sunfading away a specific nasty brownish spot (most of his body is covered)
Spoiler
I forgot to take a before photo ^^; sorry.

But here he is all bundled with 2 layers of aluminum foil sheets like a baked potato:

You can see that icky brown smudge that wouldn't come off with my magic erasers.

UPDATE: (05/20/20) I decided to have Teddy join the outdoor squad so he started the hydrogen peroxide cream treatment.


- Miss Gadget/Hip Holly (sunfading since 04/30/20)- sunfading full body with eyes/symbols covered. UPDATE: (05/14/20) Since I wasn't seeing any change and I finally realized sunfading a translucent pony might not work since the beams go through her... I've decided to apply some hydrogen peroxide cream and sunfade her outside with Dainty Dove.

Spoiler
Before:

All prepped to sunfade:

(I covered her hair, eyes, and symbols in plastic wrap, then covered her mane and tail in foil, and then painted over the eyes/symbols with at least 2 layers of acrylic paint.)

In her new digs with her layer of hydrogen peroxide cream:

UPDATE: (05/30/20) I haven't seen any evidence of progress even after switching her to the cream method, so for now Hip Holly is going to take a break from sunfading.


- Dainty Dove
(sunfading since 05/01/20)- UPDATED sunfading full body with eyes/symbols covered with the addition of hydrogen peroxide cream.

oh, boy. There's my first mistake. ^^; I didn't cover her eyes and symbols yet. I'll update this later with a new picture. EDIT Got her all prepped for real now. You can see her picture below under Day 1

-Miss Painter (sunfading since 05/12/20)-
Spoiler
She arrived with all her accessories and wearing her scarf and I was so excited until I untied the scarf from around her neck and found this:

UGH  :shocked: The scarf bled into her plastic and she has these icky red splotches almost everywhere on her head and neck  :( even UNDER HER CHIN  >_<
For her treatment, I've decided I'm going to repeat the same technique that I used for Dainty Dove (That is, I'm wrapping her mane and tail (and in Miss Painter's case, 90% of her body) in plastic wrap and foil, and then I'm painting on hydrogen peroxide cream onto those blotches). I'm worried the green between blotches might fade as well, so I'm debating on whether to use acrylic paint (comes off with rubbing alcohol) to cover those nooks and crannies.

Here she is baked-potato-ified:

*UPDATE* (05/30/20)
Finally added alternate Royal Lady Satin Slipper to the Sunfading squad!  :P

-Alt. Royal Lady Satin Slipper (sunfading since 05/23/20)- sunfading using the hydrogen peroxide cream. This time I painted over her symbols directly with alcohol-soluble acrylics. I've heard this won't remove the paint unless I rub too hard.

next to my regular white Lady Satin Slipper:

Prepped with her mane + tail wrapped in plastic wrap, then 2 layers of foil. Her eyes have a layer of plastic wrap, which I then painted acrylics on top. I don't trust painting directly over G2 eyes with their gems. Her symbols, on the other hand, are directly painted over with acrylics:

Before prepping them, I washed them thoroughly inside and out with soap and warm water, removed what I could with magic erasers, and then shampooed and conditioned them:

And here's a close-up of some pen marks I especially want to try to fade away:

For the tail rust on Dainty Dove, I heard using arm & hammer toothpaste works wonders, but unfortunately I don't have any. So i used Crest as a substitute ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I don't think it worked.

Here's a picture of the gothic horror that is my re-purposed jewelry stand-turned drying rack:

Teddy:

hmm as you can see, there hasn't been much fading on Teddy's mark... keep in mind it's only been 2 days and I expect it to take a while for that mark to start fading >_<

Miss Gadget/Hip Holly:

No noticeable change for Miss Gadget/ Hip Holly... but at least she hasn't burned ^^;

Dainty Dove:

WOW in only 2 days I can already tell Dainty Dove is whiter!

Here are comparisons with Dainty Dove after 2 days of treatment with both my white Lady Satin Slipper and
my yellowed Lady Satin Slipper again:

Miss Painter: (after 8 days of hydrogen peroxide cream (refreshed every morning) and sun). I also went ahead and painted over her green splotches with acrylic paint so as to protect her normal color from fading.

I might be crazy, but I think the red is starting to fade!

I used white acrylic on her symbols as a way to judge her faded shade. She's not quite there, but she's whitening faster than Dainty Dove!

Pony Corral / Questions about Sun fading G2s
« on: April 28, 2020, 02:58:16 PM »
Question for pony folks experienced in pony restoration-- I always see helpful posts, videos, and tutorials about sun fading G1 ponies but I've never seen one about doing it for a G2. Does anyone know if sun fading works on G2, too?

I'm planning on trying sun fading for the first time on my G2 variant Lady Satin Slipper:

(she's way more yellowed than she appears)

Any advice?

*EDIT*
Here’s a better picture:

(from left to right): dainty dove with glued on rhinestones that I want to use first to test sunfading out, my yellowed variant Lady Satin Slipper, my regular white Lady Satin Slipper for comparison.


And follow-up question, is it safe to sun fade translucent ponies? I have a baity Miss Gadget/Hip Holly and I want to conduct an experiment to see if I can get her to more closely resemble her magazine counterpart:

Introductions / Tardy to the party-- Hi there!
« on: April 24, 2020, 01:00:00 PM »
:rainbow: :rainbow: :rainbow:Greetings!  :rainbow: :rainbow: :rainbow:

I’m suuuuuuper late to the introduction because I only just found out my registration was accepted (it got lost in my email)  >_<
my bad.  ^^;


Anywhoo, I'm Skandydandy at MLPTP and fairly new to both sites.


                    How old are you? Hmmm I'm old enough to have owned a Walkman and a VCR, but young enough that I still haven't quite found my footing yet.  ;)
 
                    Where do you live? State, Country? PA, USA.


What made you want to collect ponies?

         My history with MLP is actually closely tied to my French family. My first real introduction to MLP was through the G2 magazines in the early 2000s.

They were my one constant comfort when I traveled to Europe to visit my grandparents, and they actually helped me learn French as a child. My other resources, apart from my Family and French television programs, were the Astérix, Les Schtroumphs, and Tintin comic books.

But I loved the G2 magazines the most and remember always wanting the toys of the ponies on the back cards of those magazines xD

Unfortunately, that was around the time G2 was fading out, and they weren’t quite easily found in the areas I stayed at in France.

Equally as unfortunate, once I returned to the USA, the G2 line seemed almost non-existent.

As a result, I was already obsessed with drawing and collecting MLP when G3 began, and I figured I could collect the G3 “American ponies” as I coined them back then.

I do have a substantial collection of most of the start of G3 (ponies, DVDs, coloring books, how to draw books, play sets, etc.) up until a little after the unicorns came out, when I started to lose interest in playing with them.

But I’ve always longed to complete my G2 collection, and I started seriously doing so last year. The G2 were my first ponies and are near and dear to my heart. After losing my French grandparents last year to cancer, my collecting has partly become a tribute to that part of my childhood.

I’m always browsing Ebay, etsy, and other places for any of the G2 ponies or magazines I’m missing :) Please let me know if you are aware of other great G2 resources.



Which generations of ponies do you collect? G1, G2, G3 or G4?

As for the other generations, I own about a 100 G3s (recently cleaned and groomed everyone and packed them into storage), 2 G1s (my only attachment to G1 is through the French cartoons that aired on VHS and DVD during the G2 era). I’ve also watched the G4 series to completion but currently don’t have any collecting interest in that generation.


Thanks for reading!

I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone, picking up a few G2 restoration tips, buying more g2s, and just spreading the pony love.
