Pony Corral / Giving wings to Prince Firefly
« on: September 11, 2021, 08:43:18 AM »
I want to customize Sweet Bee's glow wings (from She-Ra) for Prince Firefly. In order to do that all I should have to do is attach it to a ponytail holder; like Spring, or maybe the winged magician ponies like Magic Star Swirl, or Magic Diamond Glow. but how do their wings actually attach? Are they ALWAYS a hair tie, or should I just use something else?. There are very few images on the internet of cloth-winged G2s loose and wearing the wings. 

 Should I attach a ribbon with glue? What would look and work best?  :devious:

Basically, I need ideas on how to attach a ribbon or hair tie to cloth g2 wings. What would you do? I also gave him Sweet Bee's glow antennae.  :frolic:

Pony Corral / Is that Snuzzle on Moonshadow's dresser?
« on: September 09, 2021, 09:57:34 PM »
I just noticed that the pony in the frame on G2 Moonshadow's dresser is grey with pink hair and blue eyes. I think it is meant to be Snuzzle, as it is uncannily similar in shade and color. It seems like a cute little nod to long time collectors, which at the time Moonshadow was released would have been 15 year tops.

Anyway, it looks to me like its supposed to be Snuzzle, but I think other G2 accessories with pictures always showed one of the core four or Sky Skimmer. I just started with G2s and boy was I missing out. Their playsets are so intricate and detailed. There are moats with fish and frogs, and plenty of wild roses, pansies and vines covering so many things. The problem with G2 is that they were just too glamorous (and skinny) to replace G1, but now I am converted to the cult of G2. It's like an elite, exclusive generation, all twinkle-eyed, all (wingless) flutters. Plenty of boys with hair as well.

I keep looking for G2s on youtube now, so if you have a vid on them I've probably seen it...and should thumbs up it! Any  G2 lovers here? Do you think that it is Snuzzle (on purpose by Hasbro) on Moonshadow's dresser? Grey ponies are pretty darn rare, and the pony in the pick is the exact same color.

There used to be a forum for non MLP stuff, but I'm having trouble finding it. Anyway, I am looking to buy the Psyduck Confusion figure if anyone is willing to part with theirs.

« on: December 06, 2020, 05:56:59 PM »
I am on the hunt for a Scribbles to replace the one from my childhood collection. You can check my post for trades for Scribbles on the Trade forum, or we can talk about a sale. I'm really on the hunt, until I find this pony my "symbol" is a crouching tiger.  :work:

Okay so others I need that are hard to get and that I would trade for are:
Starglow
MO Star Hopper

For Trade / 2 Princess Golden Glow 2's,Princess Silver Glow For Trade! Got Scribbles? OTHERS
« on: December 05, 2020, 11:36:26 PM »

Alright well the link above should show Golden Glow 2A, as Well as Golden Glow 2B, and Silver Glow. Please make note of which Golden Glow you are looking at in each picture so you don't make any mistakes, there are a lot of close-ups.

I'm hoping to trade any two for Scribbles (obviously you would choose the NM Golden Glow and either the other Golden Glow or Silver Glow). Maybe I could at least knock out more than half of her price.

I had Scribbles and Dabble in my childhood collection. They shouldn't be too hard to replace  :whoa:

Also looking for Starglow and Mail Order Star Hopper.

Pony Corral / Are the Soda Sippin' Ponies normal-sized?
« on: December 04, 2020, 07:58:23 PM »
I am looking up the Soda Sippin' Ponies online, but there are no photographs currently that show them next to other traditional mold ponies.I've never seen them in person (obviously). It looks to me like the Soda Sippin' Ponies are in the Tic-Tac-Toe pose, but a website said that the year they came out it was the coterminous Flower Fantasy Ponies that were the last ponies in the traditional molds.

Are the Soda Sippin' Ponies big like the Sweet Talkin' Ponies and the Secret Surprise Ponies, or are they just rainbow maned earth ponies with ice cream symbols and holes over their lips?

Pony Corral / Price Check and confusion about another off-white pony: Neraida.

Despite what it says on the internet (umm...except this statement, heh) variant Greek Starshine had glittery symbols (or at least this one did.)

She is brown, not cremello or cream. I'm almost sure its regrind...and what I used to call "oxidization" (yellowing) but maybe the latter always happens before or with the former, I'm not that experienced.

Listen I followed the instructions, I don't know where the pictures are, it was like seven pictures and took some labor.

https://www.deviantart.com/psisaac

The THIRD pony is Neraida. it's entire body is the color of cream mixed with coffee that is very old, so it is a very ash brown color, not cremello like in the pics (I learned to never trust variant Neraida photos!).

I think she was 80-120, but thats in mint condition, however pony prices are up now. Now that I look at the photos she is not that different from (hopefully) non reground/discoloured ones as they appear in sunlight in photos.

Please take the extra step to go to deviant art and look. I really tried to make the pictures work this time!

Pony Corral / Price Check on pale Windy and Quackers, link to pictures!
« on: November 14, 2020, 09:33:56 PM »
Well, I apparently had a deviant art page for the last nine years  :lol:  So here is a link to the Quackers I posted about about a week ago (these are the pics that were not working), and the Windy (I thought it was white, but apparently that might be a myth?).

Pony Corral / Oxy-Clean is to twinkle eyes what Latisse is to green eyes! PICS ADDED!
« on: October 28, 2020, 02:55:00 AM »
Man, I really messed up   :sad: I didn't experiment first  :( . I thought Oxy-Clean would be no big deal. Let me tell you a story.

I saw a pony I own valued at a very high price on the internet, and the value of the pony they showed made me see it as NM, or at least VG. I decided to "brighten" and clean mine.

I put the pony in a glass container on top of the dryer. I poured in boiling water, and she was face down, submerged. I put in the Oxy-Clean (very small amount) and it started sizzling. I came back five minutes later....

QUACKERS'S eyes had bubbles stuck to them like ants on an apple core!  :blink: :blink: :shocked: :huh: :( :cry: :yikes:    I used soaked soft warm fingernails to get the oxy-clean lux flakes or whatever they were off the eye. The right one has a little scratchtched. Completeletly clear, flat, transluscent, unscratchted, with NO interference paint left. I have never seen that before.

Then I looked at the one valued at around $100. Its body was equally discolored, its hair was the same, its symbols were a little worse, and its marks just a little lighter. Well it still has its eyeshine.

On the positive side, I was able to "scrucnch" Quackers's mane back to factory curl.

I would like to load pictures and ask for a price check but whether I try to paste an image or or hit "attachments and options" it just never works. How do you post pics?

The good old days....

The line of white on the front facet is not a reflection, it is the scratch. Anyway this is what I mean by "i have never seen" an almost unscratched surface, flat, translucent aqua with no interference at all. of course this is a camera flash, but it is still a little brighter when it does actually catch the light.

Well here she is swimming and hoping it doesn't rain or whatever she does  :satisfied: ....

closer, front marks

Now that, Sir, is a tail (even though it isn't factory curl. I didn't need a flat iron or anything.)

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


back and super nice mane. there is a mark on the symbol, but the symbol itself is fine.

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


And with a flash she she now has very blue eyes.

Okay so Control + click, then "open image in new tab" and that tab will have the normal sized image. I will shrink pics next time first but im too drained to do it now...i didn't know my phone took enormous pictures!

Pony Corral / Price Check G2 unicorn version of Golden Light/Glow ...
« on: October 17, 2020, 09:46:46 AM »
I have a G2 Golden Glow that is a unicorn. I saw a better condition (but not mint) of this selling for 70.00 on ebay. mine has bad symbols, some silver off the tip of its horn, a small eye chip (still has crystals, though!), and maybe dry hair (but not frizzy).

I FINALLY was hit by the idea for a pony persona, and for it I needed a yellow unicorn. I figured to make one of each generation. Would it be best to lay off Gen 2 unicorns in general unless its for restoration? Are they all too valuable?

Just as a side note: In July I bought Happy Glow for thirty-five dollars. Now she is worth $100.00? for real? On the one hand this is great, on the other...how am i gonna get the others?

Introductions / Hello, been a while!
« on: October 22, 2016, 10:27:23 PM »
I haven't been on this site in YEARS. I don't have a real collection right now, just two baby ponies that are from my original childhood collection (b. blossom and tiny bubbles both are now glow in the dark rehairs).

I am mostly here just look at the pictures of ponies, as i am way too broke to collect them right now. maybe also to talk about ponies in order to destress.

i think if i do start collecting, i will stick mostly to ponies from the pony 'n friends show, they sort of have that extra dimension, and i love the g1 cartoon.

my name "bathtub" comes from the symbol on one of the perfume puff ponies, since they are some of my favs...i think her name was sweet suds (?)

anyway, it is great to be back!  :biggrin:
