Congrats!Thanks! :biggrin:
It's amazing to find a G1 in the wild :D Congrats!Yeah! It’s so hard to find any 80s toys at this point, I was lucky with a carebear recently too though so hopefully my luck will keep going! ^.^
Congratulations! Nothing beats the thrill of finding your first G1 in the wild. Mostly what I find around here are Mc D's G4s and G4 in general. So G1s and even G3 are rare, great finds.Thank you!
What great finds! Princess Primrose is beautiful. :lovey: She's one of my favorites.She really is! I love the pink and turquoise or blue colour schemes on ponies, they’re so cute :blush:
Your G3s are cute too. :D
Woot! Congrats on your first G1 thrift find, and princess pony too! :cool:Thank you! :biggrin:
Congrats on your new ponies! I love your background also! :)Thank you! I put it together really quickly just got the photos lol!
Great find, I love the princess ponies! :frolic: The only thing close to "pony" in the thrift stores near the town I live in are porcelain horse dolls. I've been hoping to find some retired ponies there for a while. Btw, I have her UK counterpart Princess Ruby who is not really much different.Thank you! There are so many of those porcelean horses here too :lol: I always see them in the windows of old women’s houses haha but some of them are pretty cute...
Jazz Matazz looks cute with the haircut. :) And congrats on the Princess! Thrift finds are wonderful!
Hooray, congrats on finding your Princess! That's a great find for your first :)Thank you! Yeah I know! I’m not sure I would’ve seen her so easily if it weren’t for the raised symbol haha ^.^
And watch out for those G3's, they can sneak up on you and before you know it you are collecting them too
Just to stop this becoming a myth, Ruby and Primrose are the same pony. Hasbro sold them with different names and accessories. Hair length etc can be a variation from factory (though the OP's one has a hair trim) due to the time of production for the UK market being slightly later than the US, that's all.Oh that’s interesting, thank you for that information!
On topic, finding any G1 in a second hand situation is amazing, lots of congrats for that. I'm sure she'll clean up nicely :D I love the Princesses, they're a great set.
Re Jazz Matazz, it's maybe possible her hair had a rotting incident and the rest of it was cut to match up with the missing section. Jazz Matazz is known for having problems with the pink in her hair breaking and falling out with age...so that's a possible explanation. I am not sure how rare she is in general, but in my opinion in that condition what you do with her is your choice. Some people sometimes rehair her to fix the damage, but it's just as viable to make her into something else I guess...
I haven't seen that version of Gardenia Glow before.
This is a great brag :happy: I love reading about G1 ponies still showing up 'in the wild', and especially to a collector who hasn't found one before. What a great stroke of luck! I hope you are on a roll now and your pony luck continues :happy:Thanks you so much! I hope so too! :biggrin: :biggrin:
Congrats! Baby Surprise looks so cute :)
Ah, the chartreuse hair! It's my favorite hair color, it's just so neon :D You're right though, it does stain...Congrats! Baby Surprise looks so cute :)
Thank you! She really is! I hadn’t seen the chartreuse hair colour in person before I got her and it really is magic looking (fingers crossed it doesn’t stain more than it already has though ^^; )
