Title: G1 ID help needed--ribbons and saddle! PICS
Post by: ValeofSpring on May 26, 2012, 11:29:15 AM

Hello!  Thanks for any help on this you can provide.  I've gotten some lots w/ original ribbons in them, and I'm pretty good I telling the difference between the originals and the fakes.  However, I want to make sure I don't just throw out anything that may be important. 

I have a three photos of the ribbons below.  I also threw in a saddle--is this from Moondreamers?  Does anyone want it?  I would happily give it away for shipping cost.

The pink ribbon on top *IS* original--I included it as a comparison.

Is the light pinkish/purplish ribbon in the center (5th down) possibly a My Pretty Pony ribbon?  Great Ponies has a similar looking one:  http://www.greatponies.com/ribbons.html (http://www.greatponies.com/ribbons.html)

It's possible the third ribbon (shiny blue) is Sundance's, which is typically longer and shinier than most early G1 ribbons.  However, this one's color is a bit off from other Sundance ribbons I've seen.

The last "ribbon" (a ribbon at all?) is made of a T-shirt type material.

Close ups (original pink ribbon on bottom in both):

Thanks for any help!  And if anyone wants any of these, let me know!

You are right none of those ribbons appear to be MLP and I "think" that is a Moondreamers saddle it looks like a couple I have had in lots in the past!

Always good to make sure I like to do that too! Just in case I miss something obvious

hmm, I would say that the bottom 3 ribbons on the second pic you posted are MLP :O The purple one looks like the one I got with Euro packaged Baby Soft Steps:

I think the saddle is from the Moondreamers polar bear.

Dont you think the purple one looks to wide? The colour is certainly right but the width, the edging and the satin grain all look wrong...could just be the picture I guess though...

Well it might, it´s really hard to say especially with the messed up end. But if the pink one below it is for sure MLP (which it def looks like) than this one should look and feel the same as that one (smooth on top and grainy on the bottom) as it´s no different than the others in my collection.
