Found my childhood ponies!

[Portobella]

Long post here!

I'm on holiday visiting my grandparents at the moment, and they asked me to sort through boxes full of junk the rest of my family left here when they moved overseas. Well, it wasn't all junk. I found my childhood ponies 

G3 would have been about to emerge at the time I had these, but I played with G1s as a child because they were hand me downs from my sister. I played with them for many years, and thought they were gone forever, so it was quite a shock to see them again!

Beach Ball has had almost all her hair cut off but it still glows vibrant purple in the sunlight. And I can still remember sitting on the lounge room floor giving poor Birthday Pony a haircut. I was quite proud of my skill at the time lol. I hardly remember the fakie, but it sure needs a clean!

I know two or three of my childhood ponies are still missing, but I think those might be gone forever. As for the ones I did find, they're pretty baity, but I'm still going to clean them up as best I can then put them on display. I might rehair them one day, but for now I'd rather leave them as I found them   I don't have many G1s, but finding these has really made me appreciate G1s in good condition, even those that are considered common. I can't really express how happy I am to have found my ponies, especially Starglow. Starglow was green and glowed in the dark, so she was always my favourite. I am absolutely thrilled to have found her... Starglow is my all time favourite pony, and now I've found the one that was so special to me

She's going to look great next to her translucent US twin
