Meet Baby Munchy! Built from Newborn Toppy, I had a lot of fun working on her; Munchy is one of those ponies I'd love to own if I was a serious collector with money to spare. I realized this food truck lunch box would be a perfect setpiece, wouldn't you agree?

I'm crossposting this from MLPTP to get more exposure, so you might feel some deja vu.

I mean I'm here for DRAMA. Specifically, an incident that happened last year that piqued my interest and made me laugh a lot.

I'd like to compile some sort of piece about the eBay Rapunzel incident from 2021. You know, the eBay listing that fluctuated between $10,000-$20,000 and had a dramatic description about a child proudly declaring that this garage sale plaything with a clearly damaged mane would pay for a college tuition (in, may I add, THIS economy). I've also been told that the seller responded poorly to inquiries about the price, and made some declarations about how they, as the sole seller online at the moment, controlled the market.

Come on, man. I got a B- in high school economics, and even I see the holes in that.

So... what am I looking for?

Well, sources! I'd like to either write an article or produce a YouTube video discussing the incident, and journalistic integrity is important to me. If you have any of the following, and would like to help in this project, I would be most obliged:

Screenshots of the eBay listing during its active time.
Screenshots of any relevant online correspondence with the seller. Don't worry-- you can redact your screen name or request that I not include it.
Links or screenshots of online discussion of the events during or near the time stuff went down.
idk, whatever you think is relevant.

If at all possible, please include a date with your evidence (gosh, that sounds serious for a funny pony story). I'm trying to put together a timeline of events. There's a single archive.org snapshot of the webpage from a European user on April 22nd (kudos to the savy user who thought to document it!), when the price was $20,000, but no description is available. But I also have screenshots and discussion from the previous day where the price is to $10,000, and a great deal of discourse has already gone down.

WHY is this important to me?

I dunno. Niche drama is fun! I found the whole situation entertaining, and I feel like if the story is shared with those who haven't heard of it or know nothing about the collecting community, it will be entertaining to them. I just love a good story, and wacky stories about treasured toys and hobbyists are a particular favorite of mine. Like, ask me about the 1999 Furby Scare sometime. It involves the Pentagon and NASA.

I'm currently making a lebkuchen pony as a sort of brother to Gingerbread, based off my childhood briefly living in Bavaria. While I don't think I have the patience to pull off the detailed tack that you can see horses decked out in over there, I do want to make a yoke around his neck, both for detail and to cover up a little discoloration. Do you know of any customs that have used this, and what methods they used for construction? I imagine someone out there must have tried it out for Big Macintosh or something, even though I'm working in g1. I'd love to see examples and reccs.

More specifically, what sort of container do you use? I’ve tried my hand at sun fading ponies in hydrogen peroxide with mixed results. I tend to use glass containers with translucent latched tops. And that’s another thing: do you close the container? My first sunfading attempt was in college, and the best area I had to leave it in was frequented by a small family of feral cats. I didn’t want them to try and drink the liquid, so I made sure it was covered.

Also, because I was in college with limited materials, I had the head stuck in a small jam jar. I think it was a cool mad scientist look. My room mate just said it reminded her of a gross copypasta she’d read. 🤢

I was in a waiting room passing the time today, getting tired of binging the archive of the webcomic I was on and decided to binge another old favorite, Kimono's Townhouse. It's been a while since the images have worked, so I normally use the Wayback machine to view it, but I visited the site anyway...

Alas! Poor KT. It's been years since the site updated, but it's still sad to see it go. I first encountered the comic when I was around 10, and it was one of my first forays into Geek Culture. It really laid the groundwork for my future as a DragonCon junkie and fan of miniatures.

For the less familiar, KT's homepage describes the comic as such:

Kimono’s Townhouse is a comic about two roommates who are polar opposites. One is a cultured neat–freak who enjoys art and classic literature. The other is a hyperactive geek who loves comics, action figures and sugar. They happen to be My Little Ponies.

It's a good healthy mix of character-based humor, pop culture, and G3 memories. Maybe you'd like to revisit the archived site too? Or just open up a discussion about it. I'd love to hear about others' experiences with the comic, as I was a pretty young fan when I first came across it.

...Huh? You thought that was an acronym? Greatest of all Time? Nah, no bragging here. I was commissioned recently to make another cow pony, and as practice I decided to give some love to a badly stained Baby Moondancer bait I’ve had for a bit. Her goat horns are cast from a mold of her unicorn horn— not the original horn, but only because I momentarily lost it and figured my workstation was messy enough that making a second horn would take less time than finding it 😅

 I thought about the name Cocoa at first, but I think I’ll call her Coffee Bean, after the old story about how the bean’s effects were first discovered by a goat herder.

We all know the Super Impulse World's Smallest line, right? So small and cute, but a little pricy to buy as custom bait. So I bought the Firefly and Minty set from eBay to do a little experimentation!

Firefly was stripped of a mane and tail and used to make two styles of molds for two styles of pony, Resin and Sculpey. Making the resin mold with the latex mold builder I own is a little tedious, so that one isn't done yet, but I've had success working with my sculpey mold!

Sundance was an initial test of my first mold, and Bowtie is a further refinement. It's not a perfect process; I do need to hand carve the sculpey ponies for refined details. But lined up with Minty, I think they look nice!

I'll post more photos and share progress updates as progress is made! Feel free to ask questions or give advice.

Welcome to SPNN! The thread for listing and discussing as many ponies with unfitting names as possible!

I was mainly inspired by yesterday's Pony of the Day, Red Roses from the Perfume Puff line. Lovely pony, doesn't seem to have any red.

I commented that she probably gets along with G3's Green Apple. She gets away with it a little more for having a green cutie mark, but come on, man.
