Are you planning on customizing the "near mint" Baby Surprise?  A friendly word of advice from one customizer to another...if I were you, I wouldn't do it.  It is generally frowned upon in the customizing community to customize any G1 that isn't in really poor shape (and even then, we generally don't customize anything that is very hard to find or rare).  Doing so reflects poorly on customizers and will not win you any friends in the collecting community at large.  Most people would gladly trade a baity pony for a "near mint" one.  Plus trading is fun and it is a neat way to make new pony friends.  Good luck! :)

Pony Corral / Re: Retro g1 wrapping paper! Also other retro items...

Seriously?!  Well, I'll have to check my Five Below then and if it has it, I'll be returning my unopened rolls.  And to think I thought about stopping in there since it is literally 3 stores down from my Joanns but I decided against it.  On th other hand, my Five Below hasn't gotten in that g1-esque color-your-own pony so mine might not have the paper either.
  Ooh, the G1-esque Design-Your-Own Ponies are fabulous.  If anyone wants to be able to call their local Five Below to check for stock, the SKU# is 400028881054 Design-Your-Own Unicorn.  Five Below also had G1 Starshine knee socks for $2.  They are pretty fabulous too.  :)

FYI - The exact same purple G1 wrapping paper is at Five Below for $2 a roll.  I seriously bought 10 rolls. Ha! :lol:

My stickers, Flashprance keychain, and Glory magnet arrived today!  Seriously guys, these stickers are awesome!  The artwork is so crisp and the fact that they are reusable is AWESOME!  These are too boss to pass up.  Thanks, MBJ! :)

My stickers arrived today and they are awesome!  You won't be disappointed if you order them.  My Flashprance keychain is pretty rad too! :P

I was thinking of using clay to fix the body, but I can't use polymer clay or Apoxie sculpt because of the fumes. Or I could try putty.

FYI - There are no fumes with Apoxie Sculpt or Apoxie Clay.  It smells like a stronger version of Play-doh.

I would clean it, let it dry thoroughly, and then glue it with whatever glue you can handle the fumes from.  I use a hobby, gap filling super glue, but maybe a glue gun or something like that might be best for you.  Since she is Gusty (a Fall/Autumn themed pony) you could make a little scarf for her that would cover the neck...either make one from felt/fabric (choose colors that won't bleed onto her plastic) or commission someone to knit/crochet one.  Good luck! :)

Love seeing everyone's Autumn/Halloween customs.  It is my favorite time of year.  Here a couple of mine, although they are several years old.  I have a few more, but have yet to take pics.  :)

This might be a long shot, but does it say "delivered" or just "arrived at destination"?  Fullerton is right on the coast, so maybe it is a port of import for North American Postal services (USPS, Canadian Post).  Often, my packages will show "arrived at destination" when packages have arrived into the US, but before they start the journey to my actual address.  I don't know though...just a thought.  Good luck! :)

Absolutely stunning!  The eyes and paintwork are just gorgeous!  I am really tempted to add this one to my collection. Great work! :)

Also, giving a pony head a quick soak in hot water will soften both the plastic and the glue.  I usually only do this for really tough cases though.

You've just gotta dig up in there. I recommend hemostats or other longer pliers to get the best reach.

This!  I also have a nice pair of long needle nose pliers that are curved at end.  I think I paid less than $10 for them and I have used them for years.  Good luck! :)

These are all absolutely stunning!  I am always so happy to see a new post from you.  Baby Yum Yum is perfect and the Moonstone Winger is gorgeous!  Great work! :)
