Title: Ponies from the wild ~ charity shop G1 & Fakie brag!
Post by: glitterball on August 06, 2017, 01:50:48 AM
Well, what a surprise, a serious pony drought in my neck of the woods and suddenly 4 appear within the week!  :newpony: :newpony:

Posie - with dark tulips, in really great shape, clean body, smooth hair.

- and was bought along with a G3 (oops forgot to photograph her) - 2002 hoof date, she has a pale lilac pearly-ish body, pastel pink/yellow/lilac hair, symbol 3 white flowers and a yellow butterfly edged in purple with magenta body and dots on wings) as I am more into G1s I do not know this G3's name! Alas, she does have a couple of green pen stains, but my kid is having fun playing with her  :P

Snuzzle - I can't believe that I never had Snuzzle as a kid, I guess Peachy was enough for me! Snuzzle, again, is in good shape, smooth hair, clean body apart from her front two hooves - subtle pindot marks that I could not remove with an eraser sponge. I guess a hot deep-clean would solve this, maybe another time!

2 fakies! 10p each!
I saw them at the bottom of a basket + picked them out asap.
Bodies are in good condition, however their hair is a bit tangled + I have not yet had the chance to give them a brush-through or a spa day  :P The green one has a closed mouth and a yellow lemon as their rump symbol; the orange one has an open mouth (shaped to take a baby bottle?) and a red apple as their rump symbol. 

Anyone know about these particular fakies? They are cute, even with their vibrant colours!
 :frolic: :good:

What a gorgeous little lot you found, G1s in the wild are always so exciting!
Loving the Posey, and Snuzzle is such a sweetheart (She's recently caught my eye and I can't believe I don't have her in my herd).

Those fakies are quite sweet too, I love their poses and faces. ^.^

Congrats!  :cheer:
I'm stumped on the 'G3' pony but maybe someone else knows. A picture would be most helpful.
In Denmark those 'fakies' were part of a big set of 9 ponies sold in a clear bag and their "brand" name is simply Pony. I don't know if it's the same elsewhere in Europe, though.

Very nice! I never had Snuzzle as a kid because she wasn't available in my country. I used to read about her and Minty in the comics and wonder why I had never seen her for sale.  Congrats on your G1 finds :happy:

Congrats on finding them, I found a few gen ones in the wild this year.  They look really nice.

Thank you!  :)  It felt so special finding them as they seem to be so rare these days - I am sure some folks who work at the charity stores have first-pick on the donated items  :lol:

Congrats! Nothing better than a pony find in the wild.

Those fakies were sold in Asda in a set of ponies, there have been I think a few different variations but there was a set of four sall ponies and a set of two bigger glass-eyed ponies and two smaller ones (the same size as yours). I am sure another shop sold them but I can't for the life of me remember.
