Customs / G3 hair match question
« on: July 26, 2022, 08:20:11 PM »
does anyone know what colors I could get as a match for Silver Glow, Starsong, and Thistle Whistle? I'd prefer if they were from shimmerlocks. Any help is appreciated!  :biggrin:

Toy Box & Games Cupboard / Winner's Stable
« on: February 16, 2021, 06:21:34 PM »
I was looking at Spirit stuff on target.com when I found these:

Apparently they're from a line called "Winner's Stable" which seems to be new. They're made by Just Play who are the same people behind the Spirit Riding Free toys. The horses stand 7 inches tall and the dolls are 5 inches tall (classic scale basically).

You can see all the products here: https://justplayproducts.com/brands/winners-stable/

How do you feel about about them? I think they're really cute and well-priced (the horse and rider sets are $10 each). Although I do think the tack and clothes are really tacky >_<.

Spoiler
This is just speculation but I think these might be Just Play's replacement for Spirit Riding Free once that toyline ends (which might be soon)

Dollar Tree Fakie Seashell

I bought this fakie specifically because I wanted the tiara she came with for Prince Ruby and afterwards ended up turning her into Seashell. I think she's gorgeous <3

Pony Brag Arena / DECEMBER BRAGS! grails + collection firsts
« on: December 27, 2019, 08:20:24 PM »
While I don't usually post in the brag arena, December was a great month for ponies (otherwise, not so much). I got a few "grail" ponies I had been wanting for a very long time and a few ponies that were firsts in my collection.

I'll start off with a pony I was very eager to get but didn't see often for sale. I did see one for sale once in great condition but alerted another collector and let them buy it instead since they were trying to complete a set. Well, I eventually found another one, and after some bidding I won him! That pony is...

Prince Ruby

He has a few issues with his eyes I'll have to fix soon. He also doesn't usually have a forelock, but it seems like a child cut him one at some point. It took me a few tries to get it looking exactly how I wanted it and I eventually settled on this:

I love lanard ponies and had been wanting these two pinto family babies for a while. They were in a lot with my first ever non-mcpony g2.

In that lot was also Sundance, my first g2 pony. She's in great condition and has both her eye crystals. She even came with some accessories! There was also a mcpony Ivy in the lot but I wasn't really excited about her.

I also got my first flutter pony. Despite how common they appear to be, I have NEVER seen one in the wild. I eventually snagged this one on ebay for only $2. She's in great condition and has really pink hair. She was missing her wings but that was fine since that meant I could give her these amazing wings from Crowning_Glory13!

Pony Life Trixie also arrived recently! People seem to think that I spent ~$20 on her (too much) but really I only paid $5 for her before she went out of stock.

I also got glitter design Trixie.

And finally here's what I was given for Christmas. I may have to send Serendipity off to the gift reciept gods since I already have her  :lookround:.

Pony Corral / Majesty variant?
« on: October 14, 2019, 10:30:28 PM »
I decided to look at eBay on a whim and I found this:

(crappy screenshot of the seller's crappy picture)

So of course I bought her. It's going to be about a week before I find out whether or not I discovered a freak variant or just wasted $19 on a grimy Majesty. I'm nervous  :shocked:.

So I visited a yard sale yesterday and I found a little clear plastic full of accessories. I went ahead and bought it for the two G1 combs it had inside. Now I'm left with all the other stuff inside and I have no idea what any of it is as I'm not much of a doll collector.

I have NO IDEA what the red thing is supposed to be

Tiny stuff! I think I'll keep most of these as most of them fit ponies. I like how none of the shoes have a match lol.

nondescript yellow stick thingies! I think they may be part of the show stable's jumps but I may be wrong. They're about as tall as a G3 pony when standing vertically.

Pony Corral / Some Restoration Questions
« on: April 15, 2019, 08:19:39 PM »
I recently found a flatfoot Butterscotch at the flea market yesterday an she's got two distinctive pink blotches on her hip and I was wondering what to do with it. Here it is:

visitors can't see pics , please register or login


it barely shows up in the picture since my camera can't do anything but it's definitely there once you see her in person. So my first question is whether or not it's regrind. I'm not sure if it since I don't know if they were already reusing plastic at that point. If it's not regrind then I'm considering sunfading her. I've never sunfaded a pony before so I'd like to know how to do it without getting any unwanted side effects (example: fading eyes and symbols)

I have other questions as well:

Are there any ponies that would not benefit from sunfading?

Can only white ponies be faded?

do I cover the rest of the body in something?

Thanks!

Customs / My Little Amazement! (lots of pictures)
« on: March 10, 2019, 11:47:22 AM »
OK, so a while back I bought an extra Big Macintosh to customize and he's done! I decided to turn him into Amazement from the Breyer "Dapples" line. Here he is!

Toy Box & Games Cupboard / Funny packaging error
« on: January 13, 2019, 08:50:27 PM »
I know that I haven't really mentioned it but I am a hardcore Jurassic Park fan. That said, I found something pretty interesting at Walmart. Well, actually my brother did. He bought Blue because he wanted blue but on the way home he realized that she was in Stiggy's box. lol


Here she is:

I got her from an ebay auction. A few other people also wanted her and I didn't think I would get her. I even browsed ebay after placing my bid expecting to be outbid searching for another horse as a consolation gift for myself. Imagine my surprise when i won.

a few months back i wrote a post about acquiring her mate, Flaming Glory http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,393200.0.html.


Now i just need their baby (when will I ever stop :P???)

Grand Champions! NIB! On store shelves!

There was just this one guy left among all the other older and newer toys (why does ace have so much overstock?) He was also loose in the box...

Since the package was damaged and he isn't terribly rare or old I set him free

Looking good!

here he is jumping:
