I want to fix all the g1s!
« on: April 09, 2014, 01:51:56 PM »
I keep running into Secret surprises and all of the winged ones that are missing saddles and wings...
I keep wanting to find a Secret surprise with saddle, carefully remove it and make a mold. And copy the wings of the winged ones and print them out on transparencies so that I can give them their wings back.
Anybody else feel bad for the little ones missing parts of themselves?

Maybe someday when I have money I'll start repairing some little ponies.

First of all, welcome to the Arena!

Secondly, I love this idea! I really want to find the Secret Beauty Secret Surprise pony as she is my only remembered childhood pony! But even if I could get her a repro saddle, I would be happy :)
Will always trade for limited edition/90s Pikachu stuff!

I love restoring the wingers :)  There are some wonderful arena members here that make beautiful repo summer/windy wings.

You should check out the pony preservation project!  http://www.mlppreservationproject.com/

There are lots of people who make replacement wings, and accessories, but I haven't heard of replacement saddles.  That's a great idea!

I happened upon a really well documented ebay pony, and I can totally do it! They're attached by eyeglass screws, so I can repair them with the right plastics. There's a mold-able quick plastic I know that would work awesomely for this.
Thank you all for the links! I can't wait to repair some ponies! Now I just need money, lol.
Thankfully my disability hearing is soonish (June) So I can start on my various dreams. My "my little pony museum" can have a repair shop in the back, along with an area for conventions.
Until then I'll read and learn and continue mooching off of my parents.
