Had some thrift store luck!
« on: July 03, 2013, 08:46:28 AM »
So, I finally got around to getting out of my local town over the weekend. My local thrift stores never have anything very good... well, not toy wise anyways. XD

So here's what I found, after an extensive cleanup.

Top down pic of all the ponies. Sorry this one is a little blurry.

Several of the larger ponies have nothing the matter with them at all...other than most of the toys being covered in food I suppose. The one G3 Pinkie Pie is extremely baity though. Poor thing has frizzed, cut hair, severe chew marks, and heavy rust. The next time you guys see her she may have a new identity.  ;)
I was also surprised at just HOW much smaller the remake ponies really are! I put the remade Snuzzle and Blossom next to Peachy and they are just tiny compared to her. Also they're very unbalanced. I wonder if Hasbro ever thought anyone would take them out of the package... eh, I still love them!
Anyhow, close ups! :frolic:

I recognized the Bratz pony and the Princess ponies, but I had no idea who this group of ponies in front were! I got them home and while washing them up I looked over all of their markings. Turns out they're Dora the Explorer ponies.  :blink: I had no idea Dora had a single pony toy, let alone several pony toys. I could only find a couple of their names though. As far as I'm concerned I think I got the best part of those playsets. XD They're actually pretty cute and several of our smaller dolls fit their saddles.
Overall I spent about $20, and that covered all of these ponies and quite a bit more things that came along with them (including some great Alice in Wonderland figures!). It was a pretty nice thrifting weekend. :D
