Title: Does anyone own these customs? Collectors pose sea theme and a baby pegasus G1

Hi all.
Just a weird question, I wonder if anyone by any tiny chance has these customs in their collection somehow?
Long story short I sold them on ebay many years ago (I believe to someone in France? But I may be remembering wrong) and they ended up lost in transit. I refunded the buyer and got a refund from Royal Mail but I have always wondered if somehow the ponies survived. I know lost/undelivered mail is meant to be incinerated but I often think back with so much sadness and hope that somehow they ended up elsewhere. Maybe delivered somewhere else, maybe stolen and resold.. I just hope they somehow ended up in good hands and not destroyed. I was fond of both of these and the sea themed one took me weeks as she had so much subtle detailing and was not a single blue base but layered in many greens and blues. She was one that I put so many hours into.
Would just love to know someone somewhere has them safe. It would honestly make my day xx

Ah, so sorry to hear they got lost  :(  I think I remember the sea themed one. She's gorgeous, it makes me sad to think she might've been destroyed. I hope they will turn up some day, somewhere!

Thanks, it's kinda silly how often I think about them after all this time lol. I'd just love to think they survived and are out there somewhere! Silly I guess but when you put a lot into something it's kinda heart breaking to think it might have just been destroyed

For sure, I'd be devastated if that happened to one of my customs! You do pour in a lot of love, in addition to spending countless working hours.

I remember reading a thread on here a few years ago about a lost package someone had sent out that turned up years later, so you never know! I hope they do turn up one day :hug: They're beautiful.

oh man I so hope for a happy ending someday!

and you are not alone in the lost custom department

I commissioned a companion merpony for trillions neptune so I mailed neptune to  JPP as a helpmate in coming up with the custom pair and well she tragically passed and I have no idea where neptune is nowadays...

Her former partner tossed all her stuff in a storage compartment incl. a parrot custom for me and probably all my customs for her. But I don't think these still exist I guess.
