Pony Corral / Re: New G4.5 Section on Strawberry Reef - what am I missing?
« on: April 07, 2021, 11:22:18 AM »Glad to see you active again, hope you are well! I can't comment on G4.5 really, I didn't collect them at all - but I want to let you know I use your site all the time, mainly for the G3 section. So your hard work is definitely appreciated
Same here, I love the G3 section of your website especially. It's really lovely that you're able to give some more time to pony stuff at the moment, I'm sure everyone will love it! Welcome back
Thank you so much SunPony and Artemesia! I'm glad the site continues to be helpful
calling Taffeta.... she had compiled a list of incorrect info on the site and was hoping someone would come back and fix it
>.>
<.<
People know me too well.
There are a bunch of G1 twitches that I'd love to see fixed on SR, but nobody can do everything at once. If at some point you're interested in getting the G1 international data straightened out and fixed, I'll happily help you do it - because a lot of people use Strawberry Reef, and it's been really demoralising seeing some false information being reinforced.
Oh my gosh! Yes, Please let me know asap. You can email me at [email protected]. I would prefer to fix errors before adding new content. I didn't start researching until 2006 so most of my G1 info came from what other sites or what people have reported, and I have zero personal knowledge of any international ponies. I would love any info! I apologize if you tried to contact me in the past about this... I kinda fell off the map. Thank you.

Cool to see the site getting updated again!
The ponies between waves 1 and 2 of the brushables have differences in quality and can have their differences discerned. Wave 2 brushables have less hair plugs, slightly different hair quality, and some other printing downgrades.
If you've been using MLPMerch to find out the releases, you should be pretty up to date, but I'm curious where the Cutie Mark Crew will go!
Do you put written information about discerning differences between releases? If you do, for the brushable/regular releases, the Unicorn Sparkle and Pony Friends collection be told apart. Unicorn Sparkle should have glitter on the horn, but if it doesn't, the Pony Friends collections have less variation on the Cutie Mark. For example, Rarity doesn't have the lines defining the facets on her gems. The Potion Dress-Up ponies have tinsel in their hair.
I think you have stock photos of the poseable ponies which are actually renders- are you ok with that? I can provide some toy pictures if you need them instead taken in a lightbox, as well as pictures of 3 of the Smashin' Fashions with no accessories. Also, there are two versions of the Twilight Smashin' Fashion, but the variation is in accessories and not the pony itself.
Can't speak on the EQG. This looks nice and comprehensive!
Thank you for this great info. If you happen to have pictures side by side of the Wave differences would be ideal.. I know the Trixie waves have different eye and hair colors too.
I do specify the differences between releases but usually just one major difference to tell them apart. So if one has a glitter horn and the other doesn't, I would specify that. If the only difference is cutie mark variants, I would specify that, etc... again, any pictures showing side by side comparisons of variations would be amazing.
I would love to non-stock pictures of the smashin ponies as well if you are able to do a white background would be ideal. If you could show them standing and on all fours would be great and without their clothes is preferred. I won't be doing accessory variations at this time but will keep it in mind for the future.
Thanks again for your help! Please email any pics to [email protected] and let me know how you would like to be credited ie username and link to any personal page.
