1. The final 3 Mountain Boys and Clipper to magically appear to complete my collection. 

2. Some glass display shelves to magically appear on the open spot of the wall in the den. 

3. To be a master of handling dyes so that all customs I do henceforth seem magical. 

A lot of magic in my wishes but I assume it comes with the ability to actually get the wishes to come true. 

I'm finishing up my first custom pony and then going to start on another custom for my oldest stepdaughter's birthday coming up. I hope to finish out my collection of G1 boy ponies too... although some will be re-creations or improvements.

This is less about what I got and more about how I got it.

Me and my 2.5 year old daughter have been bonding over my growing army of G1 brother ponies and the family ponies. One night after listening to her create an elaborate story where Tex complained of never being able to play and QB ultimately saying, "Of course you can play a game with me!" I decided she needed to have more hats to dress the other ponies in. I immediately bought a lot of 7 hats for a low price from a seller that only had 3 Neutral or worse and none recently. 

Got the package in the mail, opened the Ziploc they were stored in, and nearly retched from the horrid cigarette smell emanating from it.

The listing said nothing of them coming from a smoking home. I possibly would've still bought them but I do require a heads up about such things. I haven't left feedback yet because I am so peeved about the effort required to get the smell out of one of them. Four (fabric) were fine after a quick pop in the washer & dryer with a load of clothes. Two of the plastic ones just needed a good airing and some time spent with a dryer sheet or three. The last plastic one required a full day of sitting in a vinegar bath in the sun with a water soak to get the last of the vinegar smell out!

Am I wrong in feeling that they should get a Neutral score for something like this? Just looking at the hat makes me angry even though my girl (as hoped for) adores it.

Kicking back off my pony collections after a few years away. Starting with the Big Brothers and then hopefully the current gen will start a new line of Bro ponies!
