Someone approached me that had some toys for sale, the sale finally pulled off and this is what I collected today! I never have any luck with this sort of thing, I'm so happy! Going to have great fun going through it all!

Thanks guys! When the seller told me she had lots of LPS stuff, I thought maybe one or two sets... Not this lot! It was like being a child on Christmas Day again.

I currently cannot see my toy room floor XD BUT IT WAS WORTH IT! I stayed up pretty late putting all the correct LPS pieces together - most of them are complete. I haven't done anything with the Animal Hospital / Mimi and the Goo Goos / In My Pocket sets yet... And she says she'll be in touch when she clears out the rest of her attic. Who knows what else she will find!

Wow! Major congrats on that score! Looks like some puppy in my pocket sets too. I have that animal hospital and hotel. The hotel is my favorite of the PIMP playsets

Post by: Pangel on August 31, 2012, 01:12:05 AM
I went back to her house again and got more stuff!

I got:
a bundle of My Beautiful Horses
a bundle of Smunchies
lots of of Secret Families / Furry Families in boxes
Puppy Tails Deluxe Mansion boxed with lots of puppies!
a My Pretty Mermaid (one I was missing, YAY!)
a bag of 40 G1's - only three of which I needed: Baby Susie with Spot is my new favourite!
a bag of 15 G2's - most of them complete with all accessories :3 so cute!

When the girl was showing me the items, I spied more LPS accessories, so I 'had' to buy everything to try and complete the sets I'd already bought (that's my justification and I'm sticking to it!) XD Most of these things will be going onto new homes as I don't collect them.

I'll get your photographs sorted for you for the Animal Hospital sets ^_^

On another note, I'm looking for certain furry families and vintage littlest pet shop sets if they are for sale eventually

Oh man, that is an epic find. I would have died before I got everything loaded into my car over all those vintage lps!

Ohhh they look beautiful!!

Ohhh they look beautiful!!

Aww, thank you! :cry: I've been really enjoying them. Forgot how much I used to play with them in my youth! I've sent an application across to the Kenner LPS forum, hopefully I'll get accepted.

I don't suppose I could trouble you for a rough PC on them? I need to put the contents of my garage on the home insurance; I know how much my other collections are worth, but I have no idea on G1 Littlest Pet Shop.

Nostalgia bomb!

I had the zoo, the pet store and the stables sets when I was little.
Also the hotel.

Gosh I miss them.
Well done with this epic haul Pangel!
Title: Re: Epic G1 LPS Luck!

Oh good, I'm excited to see you at the Kenner forum!  PM me if you haven't been accepted after a few days - sometimes new registrations get lost in spam there, so I can notify the admin if there's a delay.

I'll try to come up with a general PC for the whole collection, but in the meantime, here's the REALLY exciting bit...you have Ruby (aka Li'l Brush 'n Grow Filly), who generally goes for around $250 with her accessories!!  It looks like she's in the Li'l Wash 'n Pretty Filly's (aka Amber's) corral right now.  I can't tell from the pictures if she's complete, but all of those Baby Sparkling Ponies are worth a fair amount (the others usually sell for around $50). 

This might help you to sort through the baby ponies:
http://www.vintagelpscollector.com/Collections/sparklingponies_babies.htm#1995: Sparkling Pony Babies

Do you happen to have the backcards for the Baby Sparkling Ponies?  We still haven't ever even seen Ruby's backcard.  :cry:  We're getting the impression that she wasn't even sold in the US, though the other baby ponies were.

Also, if you're ever bored and feel like scanning/photographing some of those boxes, I would be forever grateful if I could use them on my web site. ;)

Title: Re: Epic G1 LPS Luck!
Post by: Pangel on October 29, 2012, 08:27:03 AM
I just fell off my chair! :drunk: Guess I got a really good deal! :shocked:

I'll be sure to check through the left-over accessories box to see if I find any of their bits and pieces, but as far as I could tell I just had the little pens that they came with, none of the nice hair bits.

Thank you for taking the time to come up with a general price check for me. As a thank you, I'll photograph all the boxes for you. It's the least I can do! Would you like me to upload them onto this thread?

The ones that were sold on backcards I think were thrown away, sadly (I LOVE box art). But this girl did keep all the boxes for everything else except the Pet Shop. A couple of them are Japanese. If I made a list of everything I had would that be easier to price?

I'll be sure to give you a little nudge if my application doesn't comes through~

Pangel, you are so sweet!  I'm always on the look-out for LPS packaging, especially non-US packaging. :)  I should hopefully have a PC for you today or tomorrow!

For the pictures, what would be easiest for you?  If you don't want to post them all here, you can always email me at [email protected] :)

(Thanks again - that helps me out so much!)
Title: Re: Epic G1 LPS Luck!
Post by: Pangel on November 04, 2012, 05:29:56 AM
I've started to upload the boxes and content onto a little page on my website.

http://www.pandapatch.com/kenner-littlest-pet-shop.html

If the photos look okay, I will begin to photograph the rest for you. Thanks again! :)
Title: Re: Epic G1 LPS Luck!
Post by: sarafina on November 04, 2012, 03:45:10 PM
Wow - that's lovely!  Thank you so much!  I really appreciate the contributions to my site and will be sure to link back to you.  Front of box and back of box photos are my priority, but I am thrilled to get any photos whatsoever. :)

I saw your inventory post on the LPS forum and am printing it out - it will help so much with the price check.  Thanks!
Title: Re: Epic G1 LPS Luck!
Post by: Pangel on November 05, 2012, 12:44:02 AM
Front and back, got it!  :biggrin: I will hopefully get it done this week. Depends if there are any more disasters with the decorating!

Thanks for sorting the PC. A couple of small bits on the inventory are wrong, I later found bits and also didn't have a couple of pieces I thought I did, but it's close enough! I need to tot up the value of everything else in the garage too... Not looking forward to that!

Wowsers.... this is the truest and most correct use of the word 'EPIC' I have ever seen. Jaw dropping heart stopping luck!!I was offered an entire garage full of 80s toys inc ponies, Jem and boxed Glo friends... but she wanted £250 which I just didn't have lying around! Bummer.... well done you!

Aww man, I'd be at her house tomorrow if she still had them! XD And um... I may have paid less than that for all this stuff... *hides*
