today a friend and i went to a "toy fair" at the semi-local flea market. its a huge flea market, but for today they had a section up just for toy collectors and vintage toys. it was really fun! there weren't very many booths, but several had g1 ponies, and lots had g3s/g4s. i only picked up two though, since i pretty much had everybody else. here's what i got!

im really happy to have the night glider, even though shes REALLY dirty. but, aside from all the muck she has little to no other markings/flaws. her hair just needs a nice shampooing and she should be right as rain. shes such a big want of mine, and i only got her for 5$!!!
the celestia one i have been looking for EVERYWHERE, its from the combo celestia EQG/pony set, and i just wanted the pony. im really glad i found her too.
i got a non-pony item too...

and I think hes SUCH a good find!! for only 10$!! he's the flocked GUND "doll plush", from the year 2000 i think? i really really want to de-box him because the box is in pretty poor condition, and i want to feel his skin fuzz....
i wont get rid of the box though, i still want to display him in it. i think im just going to take him out and put him back in. hes really cool, im really glad i got him.
anyways, thats it! thanks for looking!

Be sure to show us pics of Night Glider when she's all clean! You're really lucky.
Also, if you do debox Harry, tell us how nice his flocking feels. :P

I will : ) I'm gonna try today.
I DID debox Harry, but didn't take him off his back card-insert thingie, just took him out and felt him a little, and then put his back and re-taped the box.
He is a stuffed toy actually, from the shoulders down. But from the shoulders up, he is really rubbery plastic with really thick flocking. It's the same flocking on ponies as far as I can tell, it's just so thick you can't see any of the plastic underneath,and it's really soft. His outfit is really well made and his shoes are even weighted and are like, very tiny BAB shoes. He's super cute!!
