Thank you  At that price I'll be keeping her, which makes me glad. She's such a funny pony with her wild mane

All right, brilliant! The Peachy's fading symbols were completely new to me. Pity, it's such a pretty shade - but now I won't have to feel guilty about keeping her, because selling a flawed common pony... Thanks for the info, everyone

I'm actually laughing at myself: I was thinking silver symbols because I was in my mind comparing this HK Tickle with ITALY Tickles, which I've had on several occasions. Basic G1 ponies loose haven't been my thing for years But it's the thickness of her symbols that does confuse me. English is not my native language, so I'll try to explain differently: I have had a basic HK Tickle before, but her symbol glitter was much, MUCH thinner. Very elegant, in fact, and if I do remember right her symbols appeared silver — but it's been years! Compared to that thin-symboled Tickle this Tickle seems like someone shot her with a glitter cannon and then drowned her symbols in a bucket of glitter shouting "Get some glitter, you!". I meant to ask: her symbols seem to have such a thick layer of glitter: could this be that someone applied more glitter on her symbols, or that the gold glitter rusted and caused them to look thicker? I've never through rust would cause a symbol to turn gold colour: I meant to ask if a thick layer of rust could make her symbols look so thick-lined. The symbol rust seems to be more frequent in Sunlight aand Starshine, I'm never seen a Tickle bothered by it: but I was wondering if the rust in her gold glitter could make her symbol appear so... thick and dark? Some of the glitter symboled ponies have silver glitter mixed in with whatever color their symbol is . . . Perhaps sometimes there is so much silver glitter that it makes her symbol appear silver? (Like, I have seen Moonstones with silvery-blue symbols and Moonstones with blue-blue symbols depending on the amount / color of glitter.)
No, the rust isn't the cause of the gold color, the gold glitter is the cause of the rust.  Starshine and Sunbeam, who also have gold glitter symbols, are also prone to symbol rust.
I don't think it's re-glittering. Probably just a difference in how much glue and/or glitter was applied at the factory that particular day. (Batch variation.)
Edit: This ended auction shows what the rust looks like. (I don't know if it's literally rust, I just call it that.) The glitter flecks off in round spots concentrated on the symbols and sometimes the plastic around the symbols gets orangey-brown.

Tickle's symbols are supposed to be gold, so that's normal. (I just noticed My Little Wiki has them listed as silver . . . I'll correct that.) Very nice symbols on her, too! They so often get that "rust" around them.
The other Tickle I had had silver symbols, and they were much... thinner paint? Every Tickle I've seen so far has had very thin symbol lines, and as far as I remember they were all silver? I presumed this was the variant. 0.o WTH. Could rust be the cause here, do you think? For the thicker lines. I've never handled a Tickle with such thick symbol paint. Or could this be a re-glittering?

Hello I have had these for years, but never tried to confirm any of these. They might be custom jobs etc: I got them off eBay in big pony lots, they weren't advertised as anything special, and they've just been sitting on my shelf. They might be custom/repair jobs, or ageing... what do you think? Case one: Peachy with blue symbols. Hong Kong, marked under all four hooves, Pat Pend-marking scraped off. She came from Germany. I had to take the symbol picture without a flash and put a white paper in the back: my camera flash bleeds out the blue colour. Paint touching? Fading from pink? The colour is baby blue. Case two: Tickle's symbols. Re-glittering? Very thick symbols, so maybe too much glitter used to re-glitter? Also Hong Kong, marked under back hooves. Can't remember where she came from. Case three: Peppermint Crunch. Hard plastic, marked Hasbro inc under front hoof, but the back hooves are "shiny" from underneath. I think the word "china" has been there, I can just about see the outlines, but is this scraping factory made, or owner-made? I've seen similar shiny surfaces on German ponies but they only had the "pat pend" removed, never the texts on two hooves. What do you think?

Because I'm super busy, I would PLEASE ask everyone to read the terms before you ask about items. About every third message enquires about misc. merchandise on a page I did not link and which I clearly stated contains nothing for sale, and that the ponies without a mark of "€" or "???€" after their name are not for sale. This also concerns MOC Baby Moondancer: five people have asked about her, and she's not for sale. PLEASE please please read the terms. Also the bit about which Paypal transfers I accept etc. The messages keep pouring in and I have very little time as it is to respond. Sorry and thanks *Edit* I have now added "NOT FOR SALE" to each pony and pony wear piece that I won't be selling, so that might help. And nothing from the misc. merchandise-page is for sale, which is why it isn't linked on my main post.

Also for sale: German Princess Pony hat (ribbons have no sparkly trims): and aqua with moons and stars w/ yellow ribbons. String is stretched. Pics available upon request. Make an offer! I'm doing a major collection downsize: to display all the merchandise properly I need SPACE, so the ponies themselves have to go. I've put a lot of my collection for sale. But first: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: The site is in Finnish, unfortunately. All the items with a price (in euros) after the name are for sale: if the pony is marked "Not for sale", it's not for sale, please do not ask. If it is marked HOLD, it's on hold (pending payment). Also, nothing from the "misc. merchandise"-page is for sale. The prices do not include shipping. Please ask all and any questions prior to asking me to hold things, including the shipping costs and descriptions/condition! Better pictures can be supplied, as well as condition descriptions. Payment plans available I reserve the right to accept or decline buyers on any grounds, be it personal experience, rudeness, feedback or any other, and I will neither negotiate or discuss the matter. I choose the people I deal with.*Buyer pays shipping. Please ask prior if concerned, because Finland has notoriously high postage rates and to some countries the insurance can only be included in EMS-parcels. I might also require registered delivery OR insurance in certain cases. Payment options:-Paypal "gift" transfer: anyone with more than +5 positive feedback on the Arena, no negs or neutrals. -Paypal "regular" payments: only if you and I have had at least two successful dealings before OR if you have an outstanding feedack profile with over 150+ positive feedbacks, no negatives or neutrals. Buyer also pays the Paypal costs. -Bank transfer inside European union: anyone -Bank transfer from outside European union: anyone, but the buyer also pays the transfer costs. -Payment in installments or extra time to rake up the payment: yes, available, but please ask prior to offering. The pony will only be shipped after the full amount has been paid. I can give several months for installments. Trades: I might be tempted with some G1 merchandise. I also collect Swarovski figurines. The ponies: MOC & MIB ponies: http://www.kmlautanen.fi/fi/lelut/kokoelma1.html (You will find the MIB nirvanas at the bottom of the page) Pony Wear and MIB Petite playsets: http://www.kmlautanen.fi/fi/lelut/kokoelma2.htmlNirvana ponies, loose: http://www.kmlautanen.fi/fi/lelut/kokoelma4.html
*These ponies are my beloved collection: they are not duplicates or "unwanted". I choose to sell them to NICE homes, to people who are pleasant and I know and trust to care for them, and to be able to handle the transaction smoothly. If you act rude or entitled, I choose to sell my beloved ponies to other people.

Hey there Does anyone have any idea of the price for Prom Queen SHS Sweet Sundrop in box with acc? It's not MIB, the box is missing the plastic lower and upper parts, the pony isn't mint (she has cancer spots) but still attached to her backing with original ties, and has all her accessories, all of them untouched. *edit* visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Also, does anyone have any estimate on how much a MIP Mommy charm inside the package increases a pony's value? +$10? +$20? It's a MIB Brush 'n Grow with a Mommy Charm.

And even if you're not selling overseas, I for one would LOVE to see some photos of your MIBs to drool over from afar 
Sure, here's my site: http://www.kmlautanen.fi/fi/lelut/kokoelma1.htmlThat's page one, with the MIB ponies (I've sold a dozen or so thus far, and they're no longer there). There's pages 2, 3 and 4 linked at the end, which contain the rest. Well, not everything, since I have a ton of loose ponies etc., but quite a lot of my stuff's in there.
