Title: POTD 8/20/2020 BBE Baby Ribbon
Post by: mlp4me on August 20, 2020, 09:16:55 AM
Happy Thursday!
Do you  have this version of her? Your thoughts? Share some more pics!

For the longest time I didn't like her color combo. It grew on me. Plus I really do like BBE's; they're so much cuter in person, honestly!

Usually, I am not of the opinion that BBEs are scary, but she does creep me out a little, poor thing.

I have a few of 'em. I bought one to replace my childhood Baby Ribbon that I thought was missing, then she turned up, so I had 2. Since then, I've gotten a couple by accident in lots, so now I have many. They're kind of like children of the corn when you line them up, with their creepy eyes and all.

I'd rather have one with standard eyes, but she is rare and expensive 'round these parts. Ribbon is probably my all-time favorite pony, with her bright, unusual colors.

I'll pass; her overall design just doesn't do it for me. Not too bothered by the eyes, I'm just not a fan of her colour scheme.

I think she's adorable.  I love the BBE unicorns and their delicate sculpting.  I've gone looking for her a few times but I feel odd paying shipping for just one pony.

I have her! I picked her up somewhere in Virginia last year on the way back from a vacation. Was certainly a surprise to see a pony considering my luck in antique malls. I haven't cleaned or displayed her yet, I'm a bit slow.

Uh I've got her mom. I'd much rather have her Care n Play version if money were no object.

 Although I actually DID see an astonishingly pretty BBE Baby Ribbon on eBay recently.

She was part of my first mass trade in April 1998, pretty sure. I love the goofy hair on the unicorn babies from this set. :)

But the PACS one, I admit, is my favourite :)

I think I've got one in my bait bin. I don't like the pose.

I love Baby Ribbon but I'd much rather have her with fixed eyes.

Ribbon is my least favorite of the original So Softs, and a BBE baby isn't doing her any favors. I'll pass.

I have her. Her mane is pretty unmanageable because it just sticks straight up and if memory server right she could never stand on her own so I would usually just place her in the swing that came with the Lullaby Nursery. I always wanted her mama but never had her, so Buttons was her surrogate mom.

She looks like a fishing lure (I've made one for my dad with these exact colors!) and is strangely growing on me...

I love the pose, but prefer the regular eyes.  There was someone a while back that was taking BBE and turning them NBBE, and it was absolutely gorgeous in that pose

Have, & like her this way to keep Frosting company.

If I was tempted to go for euro versions it would be of Baby Gusty & Baby Heart Throb.

On another note I've seen some baby Ponies de-BBE'd & if done well they look amazing!!!

Anyone have any photos of BBEs changed to NBBEs? I was hoping to try it, I read a tutorial about how to do it a while back, but would love to see pics of the results. None of my Baby Ribbons are in rough enough shape to justify this kind of a modification, but I have a Baby Frosting with rusted out eyes and a mohawk that might be a good candidate for an experiment, also a Baby Lickety Split.

I don't like anything about her, sorry. These eyes are just creepy (I don't think any of the BBEs were ever sold here, so I didn't grow up with them), and I don't like her colour combination. The pose would be ok if she had normal eyes.

Oh they look so cute with normal eyes!
Maybe it's time to start looking for a sister for my beloved Play n Care Baby Ribbon....

Oh my goodness, they are cute!! Definitely going to try this. Hope I don't ruin a pony in the process, but she's pretty bad to start with. Thank you for sharing the pic, this is exactly what I was looking for!

I don't have her and I don't plan on getting her.  I am not a fan of the Beddy-bye eye ponies.  I find them somewhat creepy looking.
