I didn't think these sorts of thrift finds happened irl...
« on: January 16, 2015, 10:31:19 PM »
Whelp second brag in two days, calm down Mitzi.
Anyway my other rag was for my grail, these aren't grails but wow they're really great!

So as the story goes, we went to some second hand shops yesterday, and while my mother was in the post office, my sister and I found some great pony things. I'll start with the less impressive one,

Scootaloo in her scooter! In really great shape,! I found the scooter first in a bag with a little people by fisher price wagon and a balloon that was sadly not Twlight Sparkles, I saw the 'number plate' first and I was like 'Hmmm that looks like MLP' and you know what? It was. But it didn't have Scootaloo attached. I (like many others) have a 'no pony gets left behind' motto when thrifting, and I had to get onto my knees and dig around in the box of little plastic bags looking for the one with Scootaloo in it. I did find her in the end, as as the wig for a Cheeraliee, who no matter how hard I looked could not find. D:
I didn't find the controller for her car but since I'm only using her for display it doesn't matter a huge lot.

And now for the really impressive find.

this is, from what I can tell, a Myer pajama Pinkie Pie. (I think she was AUS exclusive but I'm not sure) anyway she's in okay shape, huge in size and very soft. She smelled a little...funny...when I got her home, but a spray with furbreeze and I think she's feeling a lot better! I'm not sure that words can describe how exited I was to see her!

 And the most exciting part was that I only paid four dollars for her, and about twelve to buy both bags scootaloo's parts were in :D
