Hello all!
I'm brand new to the MLP Arena. I have an intense collection of G1's from my childhood...spanning 7 or 8 years. Many years ago I packed them away, and this past summer was inspired to dig them out. It was magical!
Since then I've been learning about and trying my hand at restoration--mainly have been deflocking so softs, restyling hair, and sunfading. Haven't yet forayed into redyeing, repainting, or rehairing manes. I have also expanded my collection through retro releases from Basic Fun, new releases from HQG1C, and a few vintage purchases as well.
Some ponies I'm on the hunt for:
TAF babies
Paradise babies: Palm Tree, Beach Ball
Rainbow babies: Sunribbon, Brightbow
Skyflier
SS Twilight
SS Angel
SS Bangles
SS Twist
TAF Sweet Tooth
TAF Buttons
Sea Breeze
Hula hula
Tuneful
Red Roses
Blueberry Baskets
Dazzleglow
Starglow
Basic Fun Posey and Tootsie...always on the lookout
HQG1C cold ones: Flurry, Winter, Frost, Snow (standing version)
And my non-US (aka shoot-for-the-moon) list:
Mountain Boys
Hopscotch
Gypsy
Hoping for Basic Fun releases of Skyflier and Powder. Any one else???
Anyway nice to meet you all! Take care and talk soon!
