I got probably 20 emails in the span of a few hours from Instagram. I don't get on there much, but I do have an account. It looks like someone in Brazil either did login, or was trying to login to my account.  I went ahead and changed my password, but this worries me. Why would someone even want my Instagram account? Should I be worried about my bank account? It's just odd... And though it is probably un-related, I did get a call yesterday on my way home, apparently from my bank, and they wanted me to confirm my email. Thankfully I did NOT answer them, I told them I would do that in person. Maybe I should call my bank or head over there today. I'm just concerned now. I guess this is just me worrying too much, but it's odd this all happened on the same day. I just noticed the emails this morning. Anyone else have something like this happen?

I found these lovelies by accident when I was looking for Mega Construx Pokemon kits. When I saw these on the website I did some more searching and watched a video on YouTube. Luckily a store nearby had them in stock! While these are a 'blind box' type of toy, the video explained there are codes on the bottom of the eggs these come in. So you can actually get the ones you want. Love that! I chose to get these three out of the five currently available in series one. But there is a series two confirmed that I am now eagerly waiting for release! Anyway, here they are: >>Click pics to see larger image! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginFrostWhite visitors can't see pics , please register or loginRoseStone - This one has parts from the 'RubyWing' figure. I swapped tails and the leg cuffs as I felt they fit the look of this one better. You can swap any parts with these sets! PS - Ignore the wing in the background on this picture. I goes to a Lightfury dragon toy. oops! This figure has holes for wings, but does not come with wings. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginRubyWing Oddly I didn't want the two alicorn figures as much. Although there is a black one I may eventually pick up. I just wanted something different and I adore these deer! They are poseable, though the wings are too heavy for the joints and can't stay up. Overall a goreous line of toys I hope to see continue! One NOTE: These are packaged in slime... Sticky, gloopy, slime. I guess that makes them 'fun' to hatch, but I don't care for it. If you get any I suggest having a sieve with tiny holes to put in the parts (assembly is required, but is not difficult). Once you carefully dig out all the parts (some are tiny!) you can then rinse off any remaining slime in the sink with warm water. Anyone else have these? I love them!

visitors can't see pics , please register or loginAKA "The LAST unicorn" LOL! Just a little thing I did today. I found the skeleton base at Walgreens, it was plain tan. After some white spray paint and colorful markers, I have the prettiest (maybe creepiest) Halloween decoration! Ha ha ha ha! Had to share this with others who would appreciate it.

Ok so, it's been.... years. But I finally dug this base out and finished my BJD pony! Here is a link to the old thread if anyone is interested: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,383390.0.htmlI was cleaning out some things and found my poor neglected and unfinished BJD yesterday. So, I decided she needed to be completed and went for it! Here she *finally* is! (Please excuse the boxes! We are getting ready for the new school year and such.) >>Images are clickable for larger size / more details.<< visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginAnd here she is in my curio cabinet: visitors can't see pics , please register or loginI used a detail pen to color the eyes, and then some UV resin to fill in the hollow. I also put in a star-shaped sparkle and a tiny, round silver ball as added detail. I finally rooted all her hair! And I colored her hooves with some UV resin as well. (I have a lot of UV resin supplies on hand!) And her horn is now silver, again, done with UV resin. Her little cheeks are done with a bit of eye shadow, as are the inner part of her ears. I may in time add a few more details, but I am very happy with her as is! She was meant to be based on The Last Unicorn. But she is obviously not exact. But I love how she turned out all the same! I did also finally get the front hooves to hold their pose. If anyone wants to know how let me know and I will try to get a picture. Sorry that I dropped on making her such a long time ago. I have found that I am just like that. I will be excited about something and hit it hard, but then sometimes lose interest and I just have to wait for the motivation to come back. Hope you all enjoy seeing her! <3

Ok, I ordered something last week and the estimated delivery day has now passed by. The status has been: Status
Accepted
October 23, 2018 at 1:40 pm
Shipment Received, Package Acceptance Pending This is since Tuesday. I don't understand why there have been no updates since this. Also, why is the 'Package acceptance pending' anyway? I've never seen this message before. >> I will note that the package was sent vis UPS and has been transferred to the USPS. Seems like maybe this transfer is not at all smooth. :/ Anyone else dealt with this before? I tried to email the USPS, but apparently the system is down. And I didn't have time to call. I did email UPS, but no reply just yet. Thanks for any help. I am hoping to get my package soon, but the total lack of updated status has me concerned. ~Wystearya

Not sure if anyone here know about the new, cute Pomsies toys, but they are supposed to be a hot toy this year. I bought a couple today (one for myself, but also one to put up for my youngest step-daughter) and I have to share this: visitors can't see pics , please register or loginPomsies toy on the left, 80's Furrever Friend toy on the right. I love it! lol! The Pomsies have batteries and the eyes light up and they make noise and purr. Furrever friends had crazy long tails you could add tail lengths too. Oh, and the Pomsies have a wire in their tail you can wrap around your wrist. I just got a kick out of them because they are too cute, but also remind me of the old Furrever Friends toys. <3

Lately I have been trying to avoid blind bag toys. But I *love* Unikitty from the Lego movie and I just had to buy several of the new Unikitty Lego blind bag toys! I actually got very lucky, only one duplicate. (It's the angry one, and I have taken that one to work. lol!) Anyway, here are the ones I have: visitors can't see pics , please register or loginAnyone else love the Unikitty character? If so then look out for the blind bags! There was a large display at my wal-mart. I think they are about $4 each. PS - Here is a picture of the package: visitors can't see pics , please register or login

And even though I haven't bought anything MLP in honestly over a year or more, I did get something at BaB.  Who did I choose? Well, I didn't see Rarity or Celestia or even Luna. But I did get someone blue! (One of my favorite colors for those that don't know.) Sooo, who?? . . . She's great, . . . . . . and Powerful! . . . . . . Of course, it's Trixie! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginvisitors can't see pics , please register or loginThis is honestly my first Build a Bear in many years, and my first ever MLP Build a Bear as well. She is adorable! But big, lol! I'm not sure where I am putting her, but I will find a place. I love her <3  Not sure I will be getting any more of the BaB MLP plush due to size (and the fact that the only BaB store in my state is a hour away), but still it was a lot of fun to be able to get this plush. They are very well made, as I am sure everyone here already knows. Anyway, I wanted to post this as I haven't had any MLP brags in ages. I don't buy much anymore, I don't really collect now. But I will always have a place in my heart for ponies. Thanks for checking out my kinda-lame brag. I know the BaB ponies are old news. But, she is new to me!

First let me say I am not good at photography, and my new camera cost less than $100. So, don't expect too much here.  My old camera was at least ten years old. Ate batteries like a bottomless pit, and was very slow to react when pressing the button to take pictures. I was tired of it! So, I finally bought myself a new camera. It is a Kodak PixPro FZ53 and was about $80 at Wal-mart. Not fancy, but an upgrade none the less! Here are a few pictures I have taken with it so far: PS - Most of these can be enlarged if you click them. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginMy dog Buddy, cuddling me because I was sick this morning. <3 visitors can't see pics , please register or loginRe-ment Pose Skeleton Kitty. Love the Macro shots I can get! visitors can't see pics , please register or loginMy 3D printed BJD fox being suprised by skele-kitty. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginMy little betta fish. She won't hold still for anything, but I like this reflection shot. visitors can't see pics , please register or loginSome Unicorno figures. This one didn't turn out so great, maybe bad light or my unsteady hand. Not sure. All in all, I'm happy with this camera. Not professional, and not the best quality. However, it is much easier for me to use than my old one and the price was right. I think I will keep it. What do you guys think? Any tips for my picture-taking? Thanks for reading! ~Wystearya

It's been quite some time since I posted a general non-pony brag here, and I am unsure of where it would go.
I got a new camera (yay!) and I am wondering where to post about it, if I am allowed to of course.
I would also post a few random toy pictures in my thread as well.
Thanks!

Ok, so I knew re-ment made a dog skeleton, but I never got around to buying one. The other day I was browsing the internet and found out they also made a cat skeleton. I *had* to have this!! One trip to Ebay and a short wait for the mail, and I now have this cutie: visitors can't see pics , please register or loginAnd one with my hand to show the size: visitors can't see pics , please register or loginSo much cute! Even the jaw opens! <3 Let me know if you guy would like more pics. I just took a couple of quick shots because I had to show someone who would care my new cutie! (While my husband is happy I am happy, it's not the same as talking to someone who shares my enthusiasm. lol) ~Wystearya (PS- There are now a few more pics a couple of posts down. )

First off I want to apologize for the terrible quality pictures. A new camera is at the top of my current wish list. I ordered my fox from Walloya Morring on Etsy. It took a few months to make (custom order), but 'she' finally arrived today. <3 I do have to say that a 3rd head I ordered did not arrive, but they are taking care of it and will have me one made. They have asked that I send the sleeping head back to them for color matching. >> I am ok with this in principle, but I hate to risk it getting lost in the mail. I need to decide right away if I want to risk off color (and keep the head with me) or send the head and worry about mail.. What would you do?? (PS- They said they would reimburse my shipping cost AND they are in Russia, I am in the USA.) Anyway, with no further ado, here is my lovely new Vixen: (Please forgive these awful pics!) visitors can't see pics , please register or loginWhat came in my box.
