Title: MOC Tales 7 Pony Friends/TV Star Ponies. Ribbons?
Post by: Ribbs on May 21, 2020, 09:01:35 AM
Maybe the MOC experts can help me with this. I know the 7 Tales ponies were released twice, one version with ribbons and a version without. My question is, does anyone have photos of them MOC with original ribbons? I try to color-match my replacement ribbons as exact as I can so I'd like to know who got what color ribbon.

Sorry for such an obscure request! My Little Wiki only has Sweetheart and Starlight's ribbons listed.

Here is a pic of MOC Patch, it seems she has a ribbon under her comb!

I don't have a MOC picture but I got my Melody from new and she came with a bright almost neon green ribbon. I just snapped a pic of it:

I might have...whether they're visible from the photo or not I don't know, though. I only have the Greek Candle Starlight and none of the others although we had them from new. I concur with Melody having a green ribbon but I'm not remembering on the others.

Going to check my photo files...

They're not clearly visible on the images on my website but I have them listed there as follows (based on larger MOC photos donated by another collector):
Clover - lavender
Patch - pale yellow
Bright Eyes - Lavender (this one is visible in the photo, it's on top of the comb)

Bon Bon - Light blue

Also worth checking Chrissytree's accessory page as she may have more clear images than my site does.

Welcome :D

The other thing I can remember - and the photo of Melody above also supports my memory - is that these guys have ribbons which are slightly shinier than the early ribbons are. I mean, this is not something unique to them, there are some really glossy late year ribbons, but it might help in terms of tracking down exact matches if that is what you are looking to do. Another reason to see what info Chrissytree has because she may have better pictures. But if you think of them all being like Melody's in the photo, that's probably good enough.

I have all the ribbons for our loose ones except possibly Bright Eyes who I had earliest, but not all of them with the ponies or the correct pony necessarily. But I am fairly sure this is Starlight's original ribbon because she's the one I have MOC as well, and again you can see the shiny...

Hah! I've had this ribbon lurking around the house for the last couple of years and I'd been wondering which of the friends it belonged to.  :P  (It keeps getting lost and then found repeatedly and this has been an ongoing affair since 1994... it is currently in its "lost" state....)
So thank you Ribbs for asking and The_loner for answering this very important question so I can now reunite Melody and her ribbon. :blush: :P

I have all the photos of MOC ponies but the ribbons are really visible. There are some close ups in the Ribbons section under the colour they came with.

The ribbons are more shinier and thinner than regular pony ribbons, here’s a few pics of some Iv found:

Oops haha I was thinking to myself while I was writing I haven’t ever found Bon Bon’s ribbon loose before so clearly my brain decided to write her name down instead :lol:
