Pony Corral / Re: Blind bag surprise?
« on: February 07, 2012, 04:48:46 AM »
I think the surprise is fun but I would like to know where the numbers are on the bags. Can anyone help me out with that?

The number is embossed inside the bag seam on the back, near to the hole punched to hang the bag, just open the seam (unfold it, as opposed to opening the bag) and check the number. Be sure to look carefully as some numbers can look very similar (eg 5 looks a lot like 3 and 8)
 
Hope that helps!

Pony Corral / Re: White symbol Peachy?
« on: February 06, 2012, 05:04:16 AM »
I'm glad you worked it out - don't let anyone con you into thinking that a 'super rare white symbol peachy' is worth anything! ;)
 
As far as I know, hoof markings don't make a lot of difference, she's still only worth $3 or less mint. The hoof markings may indicate if she was the regular release with the Grooming Parlour, or the later Mail Order 'Playset Ponies' release (if one set of markings says China, it usually means its later)
 
However, if you have the flat footed version (doesn't have the sunken 'dimple' under the soles of the feet then she is worth more but they don't turn up often. I wouldn't get excited though, I would say max $15 on a Flat Foot Peachy, unless anyone has a better valuation, as Ive only seen a couple?
 
Hope that helps!

Perhaps they did it because it was confusing people - all the other ponies are pictured on the packet, but the special edition ponies are just shown in sillouette because they are supposed to be 'secret'?

« on: February 01, 2012, 01:59:45 PM »
Hi Folks :)

I am looking to purchase a whole case or an otherwise complete set with bags/card of Euro Wave 2

This is for a special purpose prize (not my personal collection) so if at all possible I need to acquire it as close to cost price, with cheapest shipping

Can anyone in Europe help me out at all? Please PM if you can!

Many Thanks - Jem :biggrin:

The higher the number, the more concentrated the Peroxide, so 50 vol is stronger than 40 vol.
 
I believe in the UK you have a have a licence to buy 60 vol but then you would never use that on someones hair, you would buy it so you can dilute it to either 20, 30 or 40 vol as needed

I've never tried it on playsets but have seen examples of where it works well. Just be careful with the stuff, wear gloves and have good ventilation - it releases oxygen as it works, so no naked flames! Also, make sure the bottle is done up tight when your'e not using it as if its left open the peroxide de pressurises and it basically turns into water (don't try drinking it though! lol)

In the UK, Claires Accessories do the tiny 'snag free' clear plastic bands - I have a little packet and there is at least 50 in there, so you get a lot

Pony Corral / Whatever happened to the Whats New/Coming Soon thread?
« on: January 20, 2012, 12:51:30 PM »
This thread was stickied in the old Corral and included information on recent MLP toy releases- it was helpful for finding out what new toys were coming out and which shops/websites they had been seen in

Does this thread still exist and if it does, please could someone point me to where it is?

Thanks!

Jem :)
