Pony Corral / Re: Your plans for collecting and ponies year 2012
« on: May 13, 2012, 03:41:00 AM »
People actually make formal plans for pony buying?  XD

Sadly, the same as last year's: unless I can find a job, no ponies will be bought. :'(

Go Rosedust! :D I kinda see the changelings as kind of...I dunno..."corrupted" or "de-volved" Flutter ponies.

Also the quote under the pic...:] *HUGE dorky grin*

Pony Corral / Re: Did you re-buy your childhood ponies?
« on: May 12, 2012, 05:03:12 PM »
I kept most of my childhood collection (you'd have to pry them from my cold, dead hands, XP )but when I was a kid, I managed to lose Baby Sparkle North Star...which I traded Baby Sparkle Glory to a friend who had one to get back, since I loved Baby Sparkle North Star more than any other for some reason. I later went to a pony meet and was able to buy the other sparkle babies, including Baby Sparkle Glory.

Also, I managed to lose a newborn twin when I was a kid (orange peg, swan symbol...I forget the name), but haven't been able to find her again. :(

One of my second-hand-aquired princesses may have also gone missing. (Royal Blue, I think)  Or maybe I just misplaced her and she's still with me...I'd have to go look.

Pony Corral / Re: Show Me your Garage Sale Find Ponies!
« on: May 12, 2012, 04:45:28 PM »
about half my collection has come from second-hand sources (garage sales, flea markets, thrift stores, etc) As well as a bunch of Sweetie Pups I found at the thrift store and was going to use for trading for ponies...but just couldn't give them up. XD

I know both of my Magic Mirror's were from garage sales / thrift stores...Firefly (in pretty good condition, too...I'm WAY protective of her now. XD ) was from an antique store...And, yes, MIMIC.  I'm not all that fond of Mimic's design, but I know she's hard to find, so I snapped her up when I found her. :D

I actually passed over a g2 at a garage sale once, because I'm not fond of the g2 line...but now I wish I had gotten it...if only to use in a trade. XP

Pony dreams!  :biggrin:
I get those sometimes... usually I find ponies for sale at some second hand store, sometimes I steal them from someone...  :blush:
Even had a dream where my ponies were alive and could talk to me...  :blink:

The weirdest one was probably the one where my aunt visited me and gave me a box of old toys. It had some broken non MLP toys like a Woody doll and a few Transformers and lots of ponies, some of them were in terrible condition so I decided to EAT all the non-MLP stuff and the baity ponies...
I ended up eating most of the toys before I woke up.  :blush:
Maybe telling people about my dreams isn't such a good idea... :P

EAT them?  ahahah...that cracked me up.

I have pony dreams from time to time...mostly about finding a bunch in some store (Mostly G1s...sometimes designs that never actually existed at all...I have those surprisingly commonly for pony dreams.)

Occasionally, I will have a dream about the actual characters...I wish I had written those down...they would be good for stories...:/

Pony Corral / Re: Any tips for getting rid of "saddle sore"

Thank you. Bookmarked that page.  I've never tried to sunfade before, (although a good number of my collection might benefit from it) but I'm scared to do anything that might end up doing more harm than good. XD;

But those red marks are annoying. XD

:O Nightshade custom! *snatches and RUNS*

*recovers from crazy fangirl mode* ...Ok, ok, you can have him back. XP  Besides, I have my sculpture of him. XP

Anyway, as far as armies...I don't really have any.  I have two Magic Mirrors (one quite a bit baity-er than the other) and two (non-winged, G3) Rainbow Dashes (one limited edition with a rainbow leg) and two different Sundances (one TAF, the other a VERY dirty So-Soft) And two Megans.

G1 has always been and will always be my favorite. :) I would still be collecting right now...if I actually had money. :/

Yes they are scans.  Forgot to mention that.  I don't have pure acetone....but I do have nail-polish remover.  Would that work?

I got Moonstone second hand...so I'm not completey sure what the red marks are on that one, but Blueberry Baskets is from my childhood collection...and I NEVER used marker/paint/whatever on ponies, so I'm assuming it's saddle sore...and it looks the same as what's on Moonstone, so...yeah.

My question is how to sunfade when the mark is so close to the eye, which I don't want to fade.

Pony Corral / Any tips for getting rid of "saddle sore"

Now that I have identified that these mysterious red marks probably are "saddle sore" from red plastic accessories, how do I get rid of them?

I checked in the cleaning thread...there was a picture identifying it...but not really any cleaning instructions.  Is sunfading the best way?  how do I do that when one of the marks is right next to their eyes?

Ok...so this is a legit change..I saw the "archived" on the banner, and since this is technically SOPA protest day...I thought at first it was for that...XD; Silly me.  No matter, really.  I've just been out of the loop for a while. (I forget to check here sometimes)
