Title: PDJ's Thriftscores of the Week for April 8!
Post by: palaisdejouets on April 08, 2015, 08:57:15 PM
Normally I wait until after I've cleaned them up to post about them, but how about I show the rough pic and then post later when they've dried from their bath?
Anyway, the only one of these that's a double for me is Applejack. I am so excited to find Lyra!!!
And I now own my VERY FIRST G2!!! Haven't looked her up yet, but she's very cool. Purple is my fave colour and I love a gem eye :D

Congrats! Looks like you had a fun shopping trip. I love finding ponies in thrift stores. I wonder who your g2 is? (I don't know either) Lovely colors at least. :)

Lucky! The only G2 I've ever seen in the wild was a McDonald's pony that was priced at $5 :drunk:

Yes! Star Dreams is great, though I confess that ponies without symbols feel VERY wrong. (It makes sense for a story to have ponies not have them when they're little, yada yada BUT STILL!)

High-priced McD's ponies are SOOOOO annoying!! Come on, dealers, know your stuff!!!
UPDATE: looked up the G2 on Strawberry Reef and she is Petal Blossom (http://www.strawberryreef.com/images/G2/Ponies/petalblossom_spoosh.jpg)from 1997!

Congrats on your finds. They're very cute! I've barely been able to find anything at thrift stores yet.

Here are the post-cleanup pics if anyone's interested! Everyone cleaned up really nicely, except I did discover that G2 Petal Blossom is missing one of her eye gems -- not too worried, since it's just a plain rhinestone and I should be able to replace it. Her symbol is nicer on the missing-gem side.
G3 Fluttershy's mane is soooo gorgeous, I wasn't able to properly capture it!
