Bump! More ponies added  :cheer:

Congratulations!  It's always nice to find ponies but when they are Mexican ponies it's even better!

Congratulations on your wonderful find! How exciting!

Please be careful to cover her hair entirely when sunfading! I've heard stories of Brazilian ponies' hair being damaged (becoming more brittle and breaking I believe). I've never sunfaded a Brazilian pony before but I would take extra care with her.

Welcome to the Arena! My collection started with thrift store ponies 16 years ago (and I still buy ponies at thrift stores when I find them) and I love making them beautiful again! I'd love to see pictures of your ponies when you've finished cleaning them.

I'm sure you'll find more ponies to add to your collection in the For Sale section :)

Yes you can if you dip her ear in very hot or boiling water for a bit. Pull straight back on the earring (slight twisting motion usually gets it moving). It should come out easily unless it has already been bent before. I usually dip the ear back in hot water before trying to put the earring back in so it's easier.

Congratulations and happy birthday dear pony friend! I am in awe of Hip Hop's accessories! I've always loved her colours! How exciting to find so many excellent condition Euros at the antique mall :)

Oh she is gorgeous! I'm curious about her comb. Do you have pics of it too?

I hope that her proceeds help you and your family out :)

Pony Corral / Re: Your last g1 find in "the wild"?
« on: August 22, 2015, 05:56:27 AM »
I found Twisty Tail and Peachy (of course) last weekend at a thrift store. I saw Peachy first and as it had been a while since I'd found G1s, I decided to grab her anyway. Then I saw Twisty Tail's hair!

I too miss the days where I could go to a flea market and buy a ton of ponies and then have to hope the ones I couldn't afford would still be there after my next payday :lol:

The vast majority of my 300+ G1 collection came from that time. I have bought very few online.

My collection is the same! Until I joined the Arena, I had found all of my ponies locally except for about 5 early eBay purchases. I still only upgrade ponies if I find them locally or if it's a trade.

Her scent is in the plastic so you won't be able to remove it and most of them retain their scent quite well even if they are ratty looking.  Perhaps someone has a Sugar Sweet that doesn't have a detectable scent any longer and would like to trade.

As for the condition of her hair: aside from using a flat iron on very low temperature and lots of water and conditioner to straighten her hair there's not much you can do for the frizziness. If you put her hair in curls at least you won't be able to see the ends as much if they bother you.

A near miss! Imagine how you would have felt if you'd looked her up later and found she wasn't a fake!

It's nice to know that there were more than one vendor with ponies :) That's always a good day.
