Pony Corral / Re: Pony Availability in Your Area/Does MLP Sell?
« on: December 02, 2021, 06:29:48 PM »
I live in the middle of nowhere so there really aren't ponies real near me. Sometimes I can find G4 at the Ollies 20mins from me, I can find find a good selection of G5s at the Walmart 30 mins away. If I'm lucky there will be the retros at the Cracker Barrel 30mins away.
The nearest Target and the other Walmart 45 mins away are really hit and miss on any ponies G4 or G5

Wanted! / Re: Looking for Basic Fun Twinkle Eyed Set

Good Luck. I've been looking too but I can only find people who are willing to get the set for you or sell you a set a gouged out prices.

Thank you for making a clickbait article fill me with joy Lady M xD I find it kind of weird they picked the flower fantasy set? Just because it seems so darn random. I'm still praying for BF TaFs

TAFs would be great. I would also love to se the mail orders. I could finally afford to get a Rapunzel

Cracker Barrel needs to start getting more new ones in. I can't find any of the new sets or ponies around me as Cracker Barrel or Ollies (only saw a full set of rainbow once hoping to find more) ever carries them. I'm wanting the TE set so bad but shipping sucks and I really don't want to pay gouged out prices.

Found these amazing deals at my local Ollies. I already plan to go back and get more of the Merpony sets as I can for a few people on facebook. They only had 5 of those left after I got me one. I'm also getting the set with G4 minty for me.

MLP Nirvana / Is this normal?
« on: March 09, 2021, 04:03:08 PM »
I have a Italian Butterscotch and I opened her to giver he a good clean inside and out and I notices that they sure didn't want her tail going anywhere with a crap ton of washer over kill. I have never taken the head off and Italian before so is this normal or did they get overly enthusiastic with this pony.

Also, I just now noticed she has an extra off to one side butt hole. from the outside it looks like a pin dot but from the inside in the pictures it looks bigger. Is that an air bubble from when she was molded?

Pony Corral / Price Check on 2 Nirvanas and Birthflower
« on: March 08, 2021, 08:39:53 PM »
If anyone can help me price these I would very much appreciate it.

Italian Trickles
I gave her a light once over with a magic eraser and a wash and condition to her hair. I didn't scrub her hard, I just wanted to get the surface dirt off her from how she was stored. Because of this she will need a proper spa day and her hair will need some softening. Her head has not been removed as it is very well stuck on and I'm going to leave that to the new owner instead of messing with it.

Condition:
Eyes- Right eye has rubbing to the center of the eye and along the top under the eyelashes  Left eye has a very very light rubbing to the blue just under the eye shine and to the black just to the right of the eye shine.
Hair- A little dry especially toward the ends. No frizz
Cutie Marks- right ones are almost perfect with a very almost imperceptible rub to far left watering can. Left ones there are 2 very faint black lines trough the far right watering can that will most likely come out with a good scrubbing. Also very light rubbing to the far left watering can .
Overall - Her head is barely a shade lighter than her body and I can only see it in pictures with the flash. She needs a good spa day from her new owner.

Brazilian Magic Star
I gave her a light once over with a magic eraser. I didn't scrub her hard, I just wanted to get the surface dirt off her from how she was stored. Because of this she will need a proper spa day and a bit of work on her highlighter issues.

Condition:
Eyes- Perfect
Hair- Almost nonexistent. very harsh and short cut.
Cutie Marks- Practically perfect. The orange highlighter gets very close to her left one but doesn't touch it
Overall - She still has a little surface dirt that I missed since I didn't giver her a scrubbing but just a once over with the magic eraser. She has faint orange highlighter on all hooves. Her head is loose/off because wile washing her under hot tap her body got really soft and her head just popped off. It was glued when I got her. Her insides look pristine.

Birth Flower
I gave her a light once over with a magic eraser and a wash and condition to her hair. I didn't scrub her hard, I just wanted to get the surface dirt off her from how she was stored. Because of this she will need a proper spa day and her hair will need some softening. Her head has not been removed as it is very well stuck on and I'm going to leave that to the new owner instead of messing with it. She looks a a lot more grubby than she actually is because of the flash on my phone

Condition:
Eyes- Perfect
Hair- A little dry mainly toward the tips. I'm not sure if her forelock has been cut or if that is how she came
Cutie Marks- the right one is almost perfect but has a very faint pink highlighter mark over the stem. The left one has rubs to the stem.
Overall - she needs a good oxi bath and/or fade. she still has some surface dirt that will most likely game off with some good scrubbing and the purple writing on her hind right hoof is already fading so should come out fine. I don't know anything about sun fading so I'm not going to start with this pony and will leave that to someone who knows more than me. she has a small brown dot on her right side.

MLP Nirvana / Re: Prices and Questions multi ponies
« on: March 08, 2021, 08:37:30 PM »
I've decided to sell all but Butterscotch so I didn't give them a super scrub but just washed them off with a magic eraser and a little conditioner to their hair. I washed it hot tap water and as soon as the water hit magic star she started getting really soft so her head popped right off. I figured the other 2s new owner can deal with getting their head off. I'm letting the new owners deal with any deep cleaning or whatever with them.

I will be selling Trickles and Magic Star on the MLP Nirvana group on facebook Wednesday March 10th at 8pm EST

MLP Nirvana / Re: Prices and Questions multi ponies
« on: March 07, 2021, 12:26:34 PM »
I wouldn't consider any of them bait, but then again I am not afraid of a challenge! It is also worth remembering that the quality of the nirvana ponies is sometime less than Hong Kong or China made ponies, for example, eye misprinted are VERY common on Italy ponies, so it is a characteristic rather than a flaw.

Italy Butterscotch = I think she will come up lovely for a wash and condition :) She is the stamped eye version, not the airbrushed eye version. I would think $25 is the going rate for her.

Brazil Magic Star = If you plan on selling her, do not rehair her :) Some collectors prefer their ponies "as is" warts and all! It does show that someone had fun with her in the past ;) The Brazil hair is very fragile and is very easily damaged from too much brushing, product use and sun fading. I would think about $100-150 in that condition.

Italy Trickles = looks like another who will come stunning for a wash and condition :bigups: I would think $20-25 :)

Birthflower = You can preserve original curl by washing the hair in cold water and wrapping the curls around your fingers :) I think she will look cute for a good wash and brush :) I would suggest a price of $20-25 for her.

I hope this is of some help and I would appreciate any one else's price suggestions as always :bigups:

Love pkw xxx

Thank you for all the info. I'm in the process right now of head removal. All have very very stuck on heads. I'm using the hairdrier method because I don't want to mess up there hair since it is dry but from past experience will condition/fabric soften up really well and I'm not sure if the boiling water will damage it. I also want to oxi boil them but again I'm worried about mane damage from the hot water. I would remove the tails for the oxi boil.

MLP Nirvana / Prices and Questions multi ponies
« on: March 05, 2021, 08:43:45 PM »
So, I have recently been going through my ponies since they have been in storage for a wile and I'm trying to mentally get myself back into my hobbies I had put aside due to emotional and mental issues. I just happened to grab a pony out of a dusty nasty box to measure for a display box and just happen to notice it was a special pony with Italy on its hoof. I went through the others and found these lovlies. They are grubby and I will be doing some cleaning and washing on them since the box they were in was open to everything in the far reaches of an outdoor building for at least 7 years. They were in a bait box with mostly babies and princess accessories.

I have a few questions on these. Mostly is it worth cleaning them up or should I just bait them? Is it ok to oxiclean boil them or do you suggest a different method, especially to get the heads off. Also what are the price ranges for them as ok ponies?

I will update as I get them cleaned.

Italian Butterscotch

IMG_1158

Condition: other than dirty there is a few rubs to her right symbols and left eye. Most of the dirt looks like a magic eraser will get it off. her hair is a little crunchy but from what Ive done it the past it should soften up nicely if not get completely smooth.
How do you tell if the symbol is version 1 or 2?

Brazilian Magic Star

IMG_1162

Condition: other than the obvious hair cut and orange bloob on her side (looks to be highlighter or she was up against something neon at one time) she is just dirty. Symbols and eyes are perfect. No rubs.
I have no idea about bleaching especially a super fancy pony and she would not be the one I would start on. So, to get her ready to sell, if I sell her, should I remove what little crispy hair she has when I was her or just treat it like I would any other ponies? Should I rehair her?

Italian Trickles

Condition: dirty but looks to be scrub offable. Hair is dry but will wash and condition well. Bad rub to center of right eye. other paint looks perfect.

July Birth Flower

IMG_1164

Condition: dirty but looks to be scrub offable other than a purple ink stain on her right rear lower leg and a very light neon pink splotch below the stem of her right symbol. Her hair is dry but looks to have factory curl in both main and tail. A few of the fore plugs look trimmed but I'm not sure if they came this way or if its cut. little bit of rubbing on left symbol.
Is it worth trying to save the curl wile washing the pony or do I just go ahead and condition and clean it with the rest of her?
Is she an ok option to try and bleach as my first time or should I leave it to someone else if I sell her?

Thank you for reading all this and helping me out if you can.

Introductions / I'm Back!
« on: September 06, 2020, 05:49:38 PM »
I finally got back into my old account. I have been gone for over 10 years and have had a ton of RL stuff happen in that time. Some good but most bad. I have finally gotten to a point where I can bring ponies and a lot of my other hobbies back into my life. I'm excited to be back, especially on my original account.
