Pony Corral / Re: I want to see your Paradise Estates!
« on: January 13, 2019, 09:12:02 AM »
:lmao: I have a lot of cleaning ahead of me with this new pickup! It suspiciously looks like mouse pee dirt (from previous experience unfortunately  :shocked: ) Won't know til I start cleaning  :X  Probably has sat in the garage the last 20 years.



I totally have to CLEAN my PE *coughs* ...


I feel your pain. My single part of PE had probably been outside for years and it had sticky melted who knows how old candy on it and also worm poop! The corners had some black dirt, eww.


Ewwwww, nice...

I recently had a very (!) dirty bed from the Show Stable, it had so much Idontknowwhat on it... some brown stinky good, no idea what. Put it into the dish washer. Came out like new :P I might be doing this with other (sticker-less) pony playset parts too :P

Oh who even wants to know what that was o___O

You can always try to sell them within Netherlands? Also is the 25€ to US or inside Europe shipping price?

I think that's to the US, but I haven't looked it up for a while, so I'm not sure. Selling within The Netherlands would be a good idea, but I'm always afraid nobody would want them anyway because this country is flooded with Italian ponies (judging by my own experience and fleamarket brags from other Dutch people), and not even the good (super rare) ones. :P

Some people don't thrift at all so they don't even know what ponies are common lol. You could put them together in a cheap lot, someone will take it.

Pony Corral / Re: Factory Errors... Yay? or Nay?

Errors are so interesting! But I'm not going to throw my money on them, not after I already completed a grail and spent a fortune on an UK hybrid princess pony.
I do have still managed to find one error pony in the wild, a G2 pony with a way too obviously double printed symbol.

Haha, I'm happy you like my smooze picture. :lol: ^^
All your pictures are really lovely, I can't wait to see more ! I really think it's my favorite playset ever, it gets me happy each time when I see it. =3
@CinnamonOnions : I know how you feel. I'm sure you'll find another one, way more complete, any time soon. ^^ I wish you so. :D

Oh I doubt. People ask around 30-60 euros even for Lullabye Nursery here and on flea markets playsets are really hard to find. :/ but PE isn't a big want for me, currently I'm working with friends on buying me a brazilian near complete Show Stable with some super cool extras.

She is cute! Mine has such a great hair even if nothing else in her condition is that great.
Long story short somebody was buying a Cherry Merry Muffin comb from me and asked do I collect any vintage girls toys, then I ended up with this gal and Cherries Jubilee twins.

Difficult... I'd like to say that I would never throw anything from G1 out, but I can't deny that I have thrown my unwanted pile of manky Italians a "you're out of here"-look on more than one occasion. :lookround:

Don't worry, they're still here. I could never throw a pony in the trash, my conscience would kill me! But I really really don't want them, they will never make it to my collection area, and in my opnion Italians ALWAYS look manky, even when they're near mint (the one in my avatar is an exception, she's very sweet). So why don't I just put them up for sale? I'd like to, but shipping from The Netherlands is crazy. I only put ponies up for sale if their own price makes up for it, because nobody would pay close to 25 euros shipping for a $5 pony. :crazy: I'm also a super inexperienced seller, so shipping items abroad makes me nervous. :yikes:

Long story short: I would really like to throw some items/ponies out, but I'm too chicken to do so. :P

Toy Box & Games Cupboard / Re: What are your obscure toy collections?
« on: January 10, 2019, 08:21:48 AM »
So many toys I've never heard of!

Does anyone have Darling Dinos? I have one and met someone else who had some recently.

I have one temporarily, and I have a faint memory of seeing them in kindergarten.

Pony Corral / Sites to buy pony hair from?
« on: January 05, 2019, 02:38:52 PM »
Suddenly, I can't find any of the threads with recommendations of where to buy dollhair from. Google too is being a dummy and recommending Target and chinese sites like Aliexpress instead of actual hobbyist sites. I know Dollyhair and Retrodolls, but what others were there..? I'm mainly looking for a better matching tail for my spanish piggy pony and I think I saw well matching hair somewhere, but I can't find the site or the Arena thread I found the site from suddenly. It's quite hard to find anything even near the wisteria/brambleberry like purple with a deep pink tone to it that is piggy purple.

So what all places do you guys buy your ponyhair from? The more recommendations the better.

Right now it's SS Twilight :inlove: Not the hardest to find I assume, but for some reason I've never seen her on sale in Finland.

I SWEAR THERE JUST WAS AN AUCTION FOR HER ON HUUTO.NET! Atleast I think so, so softs weren't sold here so it's hard to find them localy. Ebay would be preferred but it'll take time to find one with affordable shipping. :/

Pony Corral / What are your ultimate grails?
« on: January 05, 2019, 12:30:09 PM »
There's probably a thread like this floating somewhere, but I have no idea where.. so hopefuly it won't hurt to start a new one.
What are your ultimate grails? Those ponies that you want the most, more than any other pony, or perhaps wanted the most but have already aquired. It doesn't matter how rare it is or what gen it is, even though most of us are deeply in love with certain nirvana variants.

For me that special one would be brazilian Truly. I fell in love with the soft shade of pink and beautiful light blue in her hair the first moment I saw a picture of her! I love pegasi ponies, and br Truly especialy is almost like an angel. I have some other major grails, like brazilian North Star and completely light green mail order Star Hopper, but br Truly is the pony in my dreams.

Pony Corral / Re: What are your pony goals for 2019?
« on: January 04, 2019, 01:35:01 PM »
I have no special goals but I'd like to find a glow 'n show pony and more G1 accesories in the wild. And of course I dream of getting even one of my two grails, brazilian Truly and brazilian North Star, for affordable prices instead of what they go for on Ebay. Even though that's nearly impossible. I'm stalking Mercadolivre quite actively due to that, lucky to have a brazilian online friend.
In general it would be nice to stumble upon some ponies on my want list for cheap, like Peppermint Crunch or G1 plushies in the wild, or find online a MO Star Hopper that's shipping prices aren't higher than a skyscraper. I can dream, right? Even one accessory that isn't a comb and a baity Peppermint Crunch in the wild would be a victory.

And of course, boil those ponies that have been piling up since last summer and sunfade ponies with big pen marks!
