The Minnesota/ Midwest Pony Jubilee is almost here, and we have some exciting changes!

Date: Saturday, September 1, 2018
Time: 10 am (9 am setup) - 5?
This weekend also has the Renaissance Festival and the State Fair.  We are going to be conventioning at the Starfire Center in Waseca, Minnesota. It is located along 2nd Ave SW- the address it is giving me is 204 2nd Ave SW, Waseca MN 56093.  That will get you onto the right street, and you might just have to look for signs at that point. Mark your calendars and plan your weekend!

The fourth post in this thread is for activities- if you have any questions, please look at that post, or message Kazzellin.

Hotels in Waseca: Grandstay Hotel   https://www.grandstayhospitality.com/find-a-hotel/locations/waseca/overview
American Inn  http://www.wasecaamericanmotel.com/
(Please note, these are not the only places to stay, but this is a good place to start looking!)
There are also campgrounds in the area for tents or RV's. If you have any questions about these, please message Aurora- I will be happy to help you find a place to stay!

Please sign up for a type of food to bring to the potluck- just put a note here on the thread, or PM Blackfrost/Julie. She will get you added! We need toppings for the tacos, and can also use some fruit/veggie and desserts.  (The food is on the third post on this thread!)

We will also need a reasonably good count of who needs a vendor table. The tables are 6 feet long, and you can get as many as you want. There will be chairs provided as well.
There will be a separate area for games and eating, so no need to plan for extra space at your table to eat!


Who is coming? Do you need a table?

YES!!!

Aurora (2 tables)
Foxfire
Kazzellin (4 tables)
Nessa & Mr. Nessa, Plus Mystery Friend (1 table)

Events!

Discord Rodeo
BRING YOUR OWN HORSE!!!!!
Bianca cut out some wooden heads for this, if you want to buy one, message her- maybe you can pick it up at her house? I'm sure she will bring them along, so you can do a last-minute drawing on a head. The heads are $10, you will need a 3/4" dowel. Or you will look weird.

Use your Hobby Horse Creation Skills! Any material is welcome- use a pre-cut head with dowel, a broom with some googly eyes, or a creatively-decorated pool noodle! Come to the party with your Hobby Horse, and be ready for some rootin' tootin' down-home, can't find this in the city sort of fun! Don't want to make one? Look at thrift stores, you can find a little kid version for $2 with some diligent searching!

Some of the events in the Discord Rodeo will include a Fancy Parade, barrel racing, jumps, and some trailering competitions. You can all thank the fantastic world of the internet for providing us with ridiculous competitions! Feel free to wear yer finery, and feel free to be as silly as you want- I don't have neighbors!

Egg Hunt:
Back by popular demand, but with some changes. This event will probably be an all-day,  hunt-as-you-will adventure. Boundaries and rules will be marked, and as they become more firm, I will post them here so there are no surprises. Because who wants surprises?
This is an egg hunt. Plastic eggs with prizes/prize slips, candy, and little treats will be hidden around the property. Please do not go behind the marked boundaries- those areas could be dangerous or are just kind of icky. Nettle! Burdocks! Scrap metal! Jabberwocky!

Kazzellin's Long-Awaited Customizing Presentation of Wonder
Ever wanted to try customizing but were scared to try? What is this Re-hairing, and why can't I do it to my dog? How do I deal with a stuck head?
Bring your questions, curiosity, and perhaps some problems that have been waiting for the right moment. No pressure, Kazzellin!

Sales and Trading
Bring your sales! Bring your art! Bring your tables, your chairs, your little stickers with prices on them!
Bring your price guides, I don't have wifi at my house- price checks will be harder, so try to come with at least general ideas!
I will have some tables, but if you have your own, please drag it along.

Craft Showcase
Though we might not have time for a show and tell (We will try!), I will set up a table for people to put their craft/art treasures to display them. I, for example, will have some kind of plush on the table. I hope to see some fantastic drawings and a few more sewn items, maybe even a fancy cake! Customs are also welcome, whether finished or not. Lincoln will undoubtedly add a Lego Creation to this table, so kids, please bring something fun to show off!
This is not a contest, there will be no judging of the arts. Just a fun place to see what our friends can do!
If you do not want your display to be touched or moved, please make a little note to place in front of it. Viewers, please respect that note!

Discord Dice
I am leaving this one on the schedule, but if we run out of time, we might not get to play it. Just like the dice game we play at other meets, but with a Discordian Twist. This is my special little surprise, so I hope we get to do it! Just in case, please bring along prizes for a dice game--- 2-3 wrapped presents, valued from $1-$4, per person that will be playing. Examples of delightful prizes--- stickers, ponies, accessories, candy, homemade items, customizing supplies, things that non-pony people might enjoy (toy cars, legos, plush cats with unicorn horns...)
***Again, we might not get to this game- there is a lot going on at this meet! There will be another dice game at the next pony meet, so as long as you are not wrapping up raw meat or hamsters, you should just be able to use them again at the next meet. (Probably in September.)

Camperoo

Stay overnight. Bonfire. Light drinks and snacks. BYO, though I will have some there.

CONTEST

Coloring Contest:
Both of these were drawn by my very talented brother-in-law Dave. We own the rights to these drawings, so copy them freely.
There are two categories because Dave wanted to draw more Discord. I can't blame him. Category 1 is a little more "Traditional Discord," while Category 2 is a little more "Typical Dave." You can enter in both categories if you like, just bring your pictures the day of the meet.
There will be sheets there to color, but as you can see, they will take more than a few minutes to do them justice. The code to go straight to imgur and print them off is under each image. Sorry they are huge.
Category 1: (not upside down!)

Pony Corral / Pretty Parlor Blanket
« on: February 28, 2018, 11:54:18 AM »
I have my Pretty Parlor in order! Huzzah! But I do not have the blanket.
Could someone post a picture of the blanket, peferably flat and next to a ruler, so I can cut out my own? Is it the same as Majesty's purple robe blanket thing? I don't care if I have an original, but I am so close to this being complete!

Post Merge: February 28, 2018, 11:56:16 AM

Since we are here, I have two of the white kitty, Snowball? One is solid vinyl and one is hollow hard plastic. What gives?

Pony Corral / Deflock vs never flocked?
« on: February 26, 2018, 12:38:59 PM »
I recently learned that Wind Whistler has pink whistles under that flocking, so it is easy to tell if she was deflocked or never flocked.

Do any others have a "tell?"

Pony Corral / Which playsets should I protect?
« on: February 19, 2018, 03:37:54 PM »
I am about to inherit a reasonably big glass cabinet, with doors and shelves! Yay! I was thinking about what to put in it, since it looks like the shelves are pretty widely spaced, and I should be able to fit a playset or two into it.

I have most of the playsets- no lavender castle or Home Sweet Home, but I think I have the rest. Which one would you put behind glass, hypothetically safe?

I am only thinking of G1 here, though I am open to other suggestions. I don't even have the shelf yet, we have to see what fits, but help me dream for now!

(There are 4 shelves, so possibly room for more playsets.)

Wanted! / Yellow fake fur!
« on: February 16, 2018, 09:19:07 AM »
I am trying to make a giant plush of Muffin Bubbles, because I had some gray fur. But I don't have any yellow fake fur!

I figured it can't hurt to ask, right? Check out my sale list, or ask about other things you are looking for if you happen to have half a yard or so of yellow fur!

Arts & Crafts Corral / Medley Plush!

This used to be a very uncomfortable sweater!

Pony Corral / PC on some playsets and a very large, very loud pinkie

What is the going rate these days? These 4 giant bundles of pink are clogging my sales piles, and I feel like if they go to new homes, I can sell better. Unrealstic, but hey! They gotta go anyway, whether I am crazy or not!

They are all in used condition, but unless my son plays with them, they are whole and unbroken.

Customs / Gotta glue a head on! What kind of glue?
« on: January 29, 2018, 06:42:03 PM »
I am finally getting Sandcastle! Yay!
Her head needs to be glued back on! Boo!
What kind of glue should i use?

Pony Corral / PC on Seaquestria, with Haven Bay- What would you do?
« on: January 25, 2018, 09:02:53 AM »
 I got an extra specifically to sell, but I am curious what the best way to do it is. Should I sell the whole ginormous box all in one swoop? Or part it out?
I would prefer to sell it here, but ebay sold prices are sort of everywhere. While I would love to sell it for what it cost me, I can't quite afford that right now.

What would you do if you had an extra?

11
The Dollhouse / Other forums for doll collectors?
« on: January 24, 2018, 01:34:35 PM »
Hi there!
I have been wondering this for a while. I only know about pony collectors, but are there places like the arena/trading post for other fandoms? Mostly things like LPS, Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears...
I was thinking that since every pony collection I have ever seen also includes some of these guys, it would be fun to invite them to the Minnesota meets, but I don't know how to find them!
Any information would be awesome!

12
Pony Corral / Diamond Sticker Book, Price Check on loose stickers!
« on: January 21, 2018, 03:03:15 PM »
Thanks to Lovesbabysquirmy, I pulled out my sticker book, with the Smooze and Flutter Ponies, and missing/extra stickers. Now I would love to know a general value, so I can fill out my book!

If anyone wants to trade, message me!

Where does this sticker go?

I have the 1986 Diamond sticker book and a whole bunch of stickers, but I can't figure out where Molly goes! Help!

Also, what is the value on an individual sticker?

I have also added a section to my wishlist with the stickers I need, so if you want to do some trading, message me.

Aurora's sales and trades!
I love trading!
Each pony should have a link after the name with the picture album. If something doesn't make sense, just ask.
If there is a picture of a pony but they are not listed here, they have probably been sold, but ask anyway!
Feel free to make offers. Can't hurt to try!
Most ponies will ship in a bubble mailer for $4.50-- there is a little wiggle room in there to cover my costs. If you are not in the US or are hoping for multiple ponies, ask me about shipping costs. I need a zip code or at least country for a good shipping estimate!

Movie Buckets, $15
8" wide at top, about 7" tall.
Free shipping in the US, pm me for other parts of the world.

$15 each.

Measures 8" by 6" by 3", poster is 13" by 18", I believe. My nephew and I both opened ours, and I don't think we both got the same foil game card, but we did get the same foil collector card.
Yours will have similar, but not exact cards, stickers, etc inside. Both our posters were the same.

PM me if you are interested! I need cash right now, so I would prefer not to trade for these. Paypal is best, but we can work something out if you don't have that option.

Also, one of these will be a prize at the May in Minnesota Meet, if you want to play the odds!

The package will weigh a little under 2 pounds, shipping from 56093. I will ship wherever it needs to go, but you get to pay for it!

Pony Corral / Tempest's Real Symbol?
« on: November 19, 2017, 08:13:15 PM »
My son loves Tempest. He is enthralled by how she became bad, then good, and I know her song by heart. I want to sew him a plush of her for Christmas, but I would really like to know what her symbol is under that armor. My basic google search found nothing.

Help?
