The candle and its box aren't mint.   The box is a little battered and the candle is showing heat stress, but it does have it's charms on it and it has never been lit. The pony and it's box are near mint.

Off Topic / Interest in a Harry Potter themed swap?
« on: February 15, 2016, 08:07:03 AM »
I was thinking, there's a lot of Harry Potter things happening this year.  New movie, plays, script being release, Hollywood is getting wizarding world.  And I know there are lots of HP fans on here, that it might be cool to have a Harry Potter themed swap?

I probably couldn't start it for a month or so, as I literally only moved to England last month, and I'm still sorting myself out, but if I got one going would people be interested?

I was thought maybe $30-$40, and we could try and make magical boxes for each other.  What do you think?

Off Topic / Private shoebox swap with Charmer
« on: December 04, 2015, 08:26:41 AM »
I did a private swap with Charmer where we filled a shoe box with a bunch of cheap little local goodies from where we live.

And today my shoebox arrived.

I love the little hulk and ultron.  And oh my gosh, that shower gel smells so good.  I want to eat it.

Thank you for everything, Charmer!  :hug:

Generally a very nice pony but she does have some tail rust and a little grime alone her mane line.  Both are fixable, but I lake the time and motivation right now.  There are also a couple of ink stains on her non-display side.  The ringlets in her hair are not factory, but also not made using products.  Her hair is quite nice.  No real smell left.

G4s

Important Info
I am located in England, so please be aware of that when asking for a shipping quote.  Domestic shipping and packaging starts at about £3 ($US6).  It is definitely better value to combine shipping, which I am very happy to do.

Feel free to contact me with any questions about where these came from, and their condition.

Sorry mods if this isn't the right place for this.  I just kind of thought nirvana people might be the place to ask.

So I found this today.
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


It's head is total takara fakie.  Same nose. Same eyes.  Everything.  But it's like it's a takara fakie trying to be a sweetie pup.  It has a ring of hair all the way around it's back.  It also has a plastic tail and stands on all four legs.

I'm currently in the process of trying to get as much of that scunge off her as I can.  But if you would like to see more pics then that's cool.

I'm also not in love with here... So probably I'd end up selling.  Do we have an idea on how much to ask?  Anyone here need it?  :P

------------------------------------------------

ETA:

Here are some much better pics of it cleaned up.

Plus I made A YouTube video here So you can see things in a little more detail.

Here's what I can tell you about her.

I found her at the Hannover Flea market in Germany last weekend in one of those boxes that you see at flea markets with a whole pile of scungy toys. I bought her with two G1 ponies.

She has no marks on her body indicating brand or when she was made.

Her body and head were glued on when I bought her, but the glue basically just let go when I put her in hot water. But her body colour and material matches her head so I don't think she is a weird toy hybrid made by a kid.

She is squishy, not hard.

Now she is by no means a perfect toy. She has ingrained dirt and/or staining from mold. She could definitely use a good oxy clean bath, but I have only been in Germany a month, and I leave at the end of the year, so I don't have a lot of cleaning supplies for ponies available to me.  She has a big gouge on one foot. Her hair is a little fragile and does come out if you're too rough with the comb. Not as bad as some fakies, but still.

Could I please get a price check on these ponies.  They are all going to be up for sale, but I have no idea of values any more.

Tappy is completely mint.  No stray marks, no dirt, eyes and symbols are lovely, her hair is uncut, silky smooth and with the original wave in it.

Baby Cuddles also mint.  No stray marks, no dirt, all her paint is perfect including that cheek blush, and her hair is just amazing.

Sugar Sweet still has a faint scent left.  Once again, she is clean, brightly coloured, and her paint is really good.  No stray marks.  Her hair is frizzy and those curls aren't factory.

Baby Mischief is the nicest one I've seen in person.  Her body is unmarked, that shine on her is consistent all over.  Her eyes have a little chipping, but that is only noticeable if you look (ie, the colour is all still filled in, it's just kind of lost a layer of what appears to be 2 layers of pain in one spot).   Her hair is great.  The tinsel is not perfect, but pretty darn great.

Pony Brag Arena / My First German Fleamarket find was kind of amazing
« on: November 08, 2015, 03:08:53 AM »
I moved to Hannover in Germany about a month ago.  There is a fleamarket on Saturday morning right behind the building I live in.  So I kind of had my fingers crossed I might find some pony related things.

The second week I went, I had one of the most epic pony finds I've ever had. 

Are you ready?

 :drunk:  3 euro babies!!  3!! One of them is Baby Buttons?! How lucky am I?  I paid 18€    all up. I could probably have talked it down more, but I was having trouble not running around screaming excitedly as it was.  And 2.25€ each is a pretty good deal anyway.

Here they are all cleaned up.

They are all in pretty amazing condition actually.  No marks, perfect paint.  And generally with the exception of a bit of end frizz with Flurry and Sugar Sweet their hair is all silky smooth.  I literally am just flawed by now nice they are.

The Dollhouse / Belated brag - Hot Toys Loki
« on: March 21, 2015, 02:42:48 PM »
So I actually got this guy at the end of last year I think.  I have been so slack about taking ANY pictures of him.

But because my apartment is so dark I took him outside today for some pics.  Of course everything was in shadow, so it's the parking lot.  I only live in San Diego, so there is never sun here *rolls eyes*

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


He is so gorgeous.  I don't regret one penny that I spent on him. Normally I have him on my bedside table.  He has 3 sets of hands and a dagger.  This is the Dark World Edition. So no awesome Reindeer Games helmet.  Boo.

Oh but he does have shackles.

Oh Loki, you're all tied up.  You naughty boy.

Here he is with the Loki pony BerryMouse made me.

And finally, I thought I'd take a photo of him on the Tardis with my Big Cheif Studios 10th Doctor (I've apparently started a collection of hyper realistic dolls of men I'm attracted to)

Well, I hope you like him. :)

Trader & Shipping Support / shady seller, everyone beware (non-pony)
« on: March 30, 2014, 05:17:04 PM »
This was for a lady lovey locks pillow case, and I figure I'd let people know here because there are some LLL collectors, and because if they're selling LLL they may also end up selling ponies too.

So a little whiles back this pillowcase was listed, and someone asked me to bid on it for them, but they asked just before it ended and I was in bed.  So I missed out.

Luckily though, the item didn't sell at it's 10.99 listing.  So it was relisted, so I bid $20.   With 5 seconds to go I was outbid, by a buyer with a 0 rating.  I thought, that looks suspicious, but I'll give the seller the benefit of the doubt.  However, the pillow case was once again relisted.  So I bid again, this time only $15.  And I was once again outbid with 5 seconds to go by a user with a 0 rating. 

I'm pretty much certain they were shill bidding now, so I have reported the account.  But just in case, I'd recommend avoiding the user 007bondgirl007
