Hey all! I'm back after a long break.
I'm currently battling coronavirus so I thought to cheer myself up ide do a giveaway :)
And don't worry the pony you recieve will be sent from my aunt who is clear and I will also wait until I am tested negative.
Pony is already cleaned and in a box.
I've been collecting and rehabilitating flutters for awhile now, roogna in the united states re hairs them for me, she Is very talented ! And elenore in germany makes the wings.
To win this giveaway you must vote and leave a comment, the comment can be as short or as long as you want !
The prize will be one of the beautiful honeysuckle ponies with a lovely set of reproduction wings :biggrin: ( honeysuckle is the light pink flutter)
I mainly collect flutters for my personal collection and simply to rehabilitate decrepit or damaged flutters but I do enjoy the odd giveaway :)
Restoring damaged ponies is super fun :biggrin:
Here's the ponies! Warning, huge album, top one is a gif.
GOOD LUCK!

I believe there was rumors (or maybe even images?) of Basic Fun prototypes for Flutters, but supposedly stores didn't order them so they weren't made? I'm positive someone here knows all about the topic.
Obviously I'd love to see (and buy) them. But at this point I'm buying everything Basic Fun makes!
-
Look at all those flutters! If I'm not mistaken, did one of the Rosedusts have an alternate rehair in a rose color? I've recently started collecting flutters myself...they have so much potential to do creative things with their wings, and their long hair can be styled so many ways.
ETA: oops, I didn't see the still photos the first time, only the gif and it went by pretty quickly. The actual photo confirms that she's a rehair. I like her that way!
-
You certainly have a lot of flutters xxx
-
It'd be nice to see a new release of Flutter Ponies from Basic Fun. With how many of the old flutters are missing their original wings, it would be nice to see new ones with the proper wings still attached.
-
Voted Heck yeah!
I would really love if the Flutters would be reproduced (even though I have all of them MIB already), I love them so much, they are my favourite set (Summer & Windy Wings, too) since I watched the movie as a child *dreams* I even just bought 2 as Upgrades for 2 loose flutters ^^

All...mib.. :shocked: I wish !

YES YES YES! I haven't bought any of the other repro ponies, but the original flutters have always been my favorite ponies. Having never found a flutter pony in my years of thrifting, and only just got my very first one since childhood from a very kind fellow collector, so I would jump at the chance to have the full set brand new.
-
Wow this sounds fun!
-
I would LOVE flutter repros by basic fun! I’m sad they weren’t released (yet? I’m hopeful!)
-
You have a gorgeous collection :inlove:
-
So nice of you to do a giveaway! I hope you'll feel better soon :hug:
I voted Yes! I'd love to see the Flutters come back as BF ponies. I'd also love if they made that prototype Flutter pony playset, but that's one I'll have to keep dreaming of, haha! Your collection is absolutely gorgeous :lovey:
-
Your collection is beautiful!! Amazing job on those rehabilitations :heart:
Oh gosh I hope Basic Fun make the Flutters! They're such dainty ponies, I absolutely adore the original box art and seeing a whole MIB set in stores would just be amazing.
It's so nice of you to do a giveaway, we hope you feel better real soon! :heart: :hug:
-
So many flutters! Do you have Hollywood as well?
-
Oh no, I'm so sorry to hear you caught the virus! I hope you are taking care of yourself! :heart: The flutter I won in your last giveaway never appeared! I fear she may have been lost in the 'rona mail slowdown! :( I hope she can make her way safely back home to you! You may want to be cautious mailing out any other giveaway ponies, just in case! We're having some wild postal issues in the states right now, on top of everything else! :hug: Feel better soon!

You have a gorgeous collection :inlove:
Thank you ^.^

Yes but I've found her to be much rarer !
She is at the start next to the honeysuckles

I have good news :biggrin: she was returned last week! With a note saying return to sender parcel lost :shocked: so when I send this pony out I'll send her back out to you, the postal service is so bad at the moment :( I'll send both tracked x

How did you get the wings to stay on Flow? I love hqg1c ponies but can't figure a way to give the Flutter molds wings without it looking... Bad. :lol:
-
I would absolutely love it if they brought back the flutters. And I would love it even more if we were able to buy Basic Fun ponies in South Africa, but no store here wants to stock them even though we as the pony collectors have all asked them pretty please to.
-
If basic fun does release flutter ponies, I'd certainly be interested to see if and how they make their wings less fragile!
-
I would love new flutters. I could have some with their original wings intact!
-
Flutter ponies are among my favourite ponies, I still have two childhood ones (Morning Glory and Tropical Breeze). That would be amazing if BF released flutters, I love their delicate bodies and small heads.
-
Your flutters are gorgeous.
I would definitely buy reproduction flutters from Basic Fun. I have bought everything else so far and I am loving being able to get new G1 ponies.
-
Oh no I'm so sorry you are sick. Hope you have a speedy recovery. And yes I'd love for them to be brought back. I regret selling the couple I used to have when I first started collecting.
-
I'm one of the minority who doesn't really want BF flutters. It's entirely selfish, though. The thing I love most about the original flutters is their delicate epheremerality. But I can't see how instantly breaking wings would make it through to stores...and I would worry that they'd toughen up the wings and ruin that irridescent effect and how delicate they are.
So I am quite happy having flutters in a bubble of the past.
On a more important note = please make sure you take care of yourself and I really hope you feel better soon ><
I'm assuming for the poll you're going to pick someone at random. I wanted to join the discussion, but I'd also like to say that if by any fluke my name comes up for this, can you please redraw the results? I love the flutters but I already have a very pretty Honeysuckle who would be jealous if she had competition, and I've seen in other people's comments that there are definitely people who would deserve her more than me.
-
I would love the first set of flutters to be remade, especially Rosedust. Not so much the 2nd set. It would be nice to see them with improved wings too. Still can't believe stores rejected the set. Target can't keep the next wave/set of repros in stock on their site-Gusty/Surprise/Heartthrob/Sparkle
-
I would love to see the flutters come back!
Also, I love the video of your ponies. You have an amazing collection.

Oh I made tiny slits to the back with a Stanley knife and modified the wings to fit :)

Are you sure??? I could make it so that if your name is drawn that you could have either lily or morning glory or peach blossom :) seeing as you have honeysuckle

Thank you so much

I'm sure! I've been really lucky with my flutters, and I would be happiest she goes to someone who would really be able to love and appreciate her!!
(Or you could just leave me out of the draw, if that's easier xD)
-
Get well soon.
-
I would love to see a repro set of flutters! I do have a few flutters, but none of them have their wings... and since I was born long after G1 ended, I've never actually seen one brand new with its wings. The enjoyment of the Basic Fun ponies is getting to see *sort of* what it was like when they were lining the shop shelves! That, and flutters just have such pretty wings :, )
I hope you're feeling better soon, sending hugs!
