Back at it with my "what is this variation" posts.
 I got a lovely addition today for my collection; mexican Peppermint Crunch! What's even better is that she has a gorgeous factory error (if it is one?) with her eyes being dark pink. I quess it could also be her original unfaded eye color but there's no pictures of other mx Peppermint Crunches with non-lavender eyes, not even on a mexican collectors collection pictures despite them having atleast six. The eyes look factory made too.

I honestly prefer Crunchie this way over the lavender eyed ones. <3

EDIT: better pictures

Suddenly, I can't find any of the threads with recommendations of where to buy dollhair from. Google too is being a dummy and recommending Target and chinese sites like Aliexpress instead of actual hobbyist sites. I know Dollyhair and Retrodolls, but what others were there..? I'm mainly looking for a better matching tail for my spanish piggy pony and I think I saw well matching hair somewhere, but I can't find the site or the Arena thread I found the site from suddenly. It's quite hard to find anything even near the wisteria/brambleberry like purple with a deep pink tone to it that is piggy purple.

So what all places do you guys buy your ponyhair from? The more recommendations the better.

Don't even ask, I just decided to check how much argies does Argentinas Mercadolibre actualy have. Among odd fat Snuzzles I saw this:

Has this once been all purple or do we have a new (or atleast unlisted on Mylittlewiki) argentinian variant? Listing had pictures of hooves and one had Hasbro 82 and maybe something covered by lighting, others were empty.
For curious argentinian collectors this was 530 pesos and I found it with Mi Pequeno Pony 82 or something like that.

Our countrys capital has a quite cool shop for used toys. It's in a shady area filled with small garages and other business' related to car parts. But that toy shop, lying in the place you'd least expect, is unique in our country. They sell all kinds of toys from the 80s to today and the place is cramped full.
 Of course, this means they also have G1 ponies. They aalways cost 12€ each, no matter if it's a baity Lemon Drop or a rare euro exclusive. Last time they only had three awfuly common ponies, but this time I was greeted with a nice surprise: Baby Candy!!! Now her set isn't that rare here in Finland, but still a great find.
 Later on I made an even better discovery: behind the cashiers desk, on a pile of toys, I spotted a baby pony with neon bright bled symbols. (According to the shops owner it was a pile of unsorted toys that had just gotten stuck the way it is, and resembled more of a monument at this point) Immediatly I thought of greek ponies, and asked to see it. After the pony was handed to me, I realized I had been correct! It was greek baby Bowtie!!! And I thought it would be irrational to think I could find more nirvanas, after finding a piggy in a charity shop and Regentropfen at a flea market last year. I was wrong. Funny enough, we have been considering going to Greece next year if we can gather the money!

Baby Bowtie is missing half of her mane plugs and has some cuts in her leftover mane. She also has an orange stain on her face. Her symbols have faded to resemble a pink stain, too. ): Some tail rust and a dry tail, but I'll get to those eventualy.
 Baby Candy just has some head-body mismatch going on. She will just need a tail and mane wash now.

I'm curious. I'd never sell my only piggy pony of course, but I still want to know what she could be worth if she wasn't what would be considered bait condition on a common pony.
And I indeed mean the piggy pose Blue Belle with purple hair and purple stars, not pink stars like the more common variants. Anybody have any ideas of what one would be worth in ok condition? She never pops up on Ebay so I have absolutely no idea.

I know far too well it exists. So please show if you have any!
 As fakie merchandise I count everything unlicenced MLP like or copied from things besides ponies itself, but plushies, candles, small figurines etc do count.
 I don't think there's a topic for this yet, either. (Or seemingly is? Sorry. I have seen mainly ones for fake ponies mainly)
 I mainly just got curious of what else there is going around after gathering my own oddities, and so naturaly I want to start, I'll add details tomorrow. Most strange one definetly is the unicorn plush with Hasbro Softies MLP plushies head.

Hello. A bit newer collector trying to find her way to these circles.
Basics would be that I'm an 18 year old girl from southern Finland. Naturaly, english is not my first language and on top of that I at times somehow skip words when writing, so sorry before hand for odd typos!
One of my few passions is old toys such as Pokemon cards, Digimon and Lion King plush toys, and of course, G1 My Little Ponies.
I never had ponies as a kid. I wasn't a big fan of girly toys expect for Littlest Petshops, and to top that LPS were cheaper than G3 My Little Ponies. Despite that I had Desert Rose and Secret Wishes as a child.
G1 MLPs came to my life a lot later in a bit of an odd manner: I was thrifting as usual back in 2016. I knew some old ponies were valuable and I had heard of nirvanas via mirage Pokemon plush info posts, so I tried to find rarities to sell forward. I managed to spot G1 Red Roses for an euro, and of course bought her. But it didn't really go as planned, after a few hours I was totaly in love with her! (And kept her)
 After that I slowly started buying more ponies, and later on it became one of my main collections. I also fell in love with restoring these lovelies, I find it relaxing. Rerooting and mold removing I have still never tried, but plan to try stronger chemicals with a slightly moldy Remco fakie.
 Nowadays I skip almost no pony while thrifting, and my collection stands at 40 brightly colored ponies, including even such rarities as Azul Celeste the piggy pony, Regentropfen, and the Surprise Twins ponys blue baby. I don't buy a lot online partly due to shipping costs, and over half of my collection consists of thrifting miracles. (Including all three listed before!)
Some of my favorite ponies from my own collection are Tex, Polly, Star Hopper (bought online unlike the rest listed), Azul Celeste, Northstar and Rain Feather. My dream ponies I probably never will achieve are mail order Star Hopper (lighter colored) and brazilian Truly!
 A couple of G3s and their playsets have also found their way to my collection, but they aren't that imporant for me. I hope this goes for an introduction. ❤
