Pony Corral / Have you ever had a pony-crush?
« on: January 06, 2017, 07:31:59 PM »
I mean, have you ever liked a pony so much you wanted to buy absolutely everything that featured her? Hoarded her (even doubles)? Commissioned artworks of her?

My first pony-crush was G4 Skywishes. When I first found out there were rare ponies I looked if they were for sale. And I found a lot with a pony that seemed to be Skywishes, the pony who wasn't even on Ebay. So I rushed to call the seller and buy the whole lot - it had a scooter, two Twilights, Rainbow Dash and the most important is that I didn't want to take chances. Many sellers don't want to separate lots and get angry if asked to. So I just stormed out of my place to go to that person's house and buy that lot. I wasn't even sad when I saw the condition of these ponies. My hands where shaking when I paid the lady and I was screaming half way to my home and bragging to my friend who was with me. I held that pony near me when we went to eat. When I came home I washed her and put her on my desk. A few days later I moved her to my bed. I made stories about Skywishes and Rainbow Dash having adventures together. Then I realized this pony deserved more. I found another one and I bought her too. Half of her head was almost white so I bought another one, but her tail was cut. I think I'll just place first one's head on the second one's body and go on with my life.

A few days ago I read G1 comics and fell in love with Lemon Drop :blush: Her design is amazing and she's so brave! When I have the money I'll buy a herd of Lemon Drops. But I wish I could buy just one right now - the shipping is crazy >_< I wish there were more arts with her.

(extra points for getting that reference in title)

So I've bought a big lot of G4 ponies and I want to know if they're fakies. In Russia 80% of ponies OOB are fakies because we're friends with China and many people buy stuff from Aliexpress. That's why I need a person who owns these ponies to send me pictures from both sides and what's written on their hooves. Or just tell me if those ponies are fakies.

Mrs. Cake looks pretty original with her apron and good paintjob. The number on her hoof says just what googles for her playset so I'm sure she's original. Mr. Cake, on the other hand, looks really dim and has greyish color insted of bright yellow, his main color is visible through the paint and the plastic is more like rubber, it's very soft. Numbers on his hooves are "32561" and "#A6003".

Apple Bumpkin also has a lazy paintjob: some of her hair isn't colored and some parts of her body are colored instead of hair. Her hoof with numbers is damaged and it's impossible to read what it says. But her backhooves lack the number of her series. She's from wave 13. I don't have any other pony from that wave to check if their hooves don't have the number too.

Those ponies' hooves don't have any writings at all. I know this doesn't scream fakie - some international exclusives like Skywishes brushable don't have any numbers and they're still legit...

...but this poor paintjob does. I mean whoever made those didn't even try. Rainbow's hair colors run into her face, the yellow on her wing is almost transparent. Lyrica has the same problem with her hair.

That Pinke's face is seriously damaged and it looks like a factory mistake - it looks like it has been ruined by something very hot. A bit of her head and muzzle melted and her eye paint came off. Her hooves don't have any numbers printed on them and I know for sure they should.

This is "doll with a pony" Fluttershy. I've bought her from a person who actually owns that doll. So she may be original.

But look at this ugly seam on her head! Her plastic is also different from original ponies I have. It's a bit harder and dim.

I'm pretty sure this Cadance is a fakie but I want to make sure.

She's shiny as hell and her head has a huge seam. She don't have any numbers on her hooves.

That Applejack also has a seam on her head and is too shiny, but the numbers on her hooves say the right thing. I also saw the new brushables from the Rainbow Power line and some had seams. She also has a weird head/body mismatch which yellow ponies aren't supposed to have. It's almost like her head is made from different material...

I know what you're thinking - "wait, they even made fakies of these?!". Yes they did. This Twilight is too shiny, her head has a seam and her hooves lack serial number. But maybe it's just those ponies with huge wings. I don't have any other to compare.

And last but not least - Crystal Princess Twilight Sparkle.

The stamps on her hooves seem really bulgy. She's also really shiny.

I know there are people who have every single G4 pony and I hope they can help me :)

The local sellers have some older generation ponies for sale and I thought I might start collecting them as well. But I don't know any names or prices so I would appreciate if you help me out.

I love those weird fakies. One of them looks so distressed and the other one is some pony alien.

Wanted! / Star Swirl
« on: December 10, 2016, 03:34:22 PM »
I need G4 Star Swirl. She's the only pony I can't find for a reasonable price  :huh: Willing to pay up to 30$. I don't really care about the condition, frizzy hair, minor hair cuts, small paint scratches are fine with me. I won't pay much for a really damaged pony tho.

Introductions / Hello everypony!
« on: December 09, 2016, 11:07:33 AM »
Hello, I'm 22 and I'm a girl. I'm from Russia, please excuse me for my bad English. I've been collecting ponies since FiM show aired in 2010. The pilot series about Nightmare Moon made me fall in love with this show and I dragged my mom to the store to buy me all the ponies  :P I was just 15-16 back than. Now I attend University and I have a job so I buy my own ponies. I was really sick during 2012-2015 and I couldn't buy many ponies, but I managed to buy most of the rare "pony with a pet" sets including international exclusives. I was shocked when I found out they were rare, because I live in a very poor family and my mom bought me only the cheapest ponies. Those "playful pony" sets were just around 5$! Even tho I was lucky to buy those I couldn't buy any expensive sets or USA exclusives. Right now I'm planning to collect at least one of every G4 pony and then buy variations of them (like with tinsel in hair, glittery symbol, other pose etc.). Also I want to start collecting G1 and G3 ponies. I have quite a few selling in my town and in my country in general so I would need help with prices and recognizing which pony it is once I get approved. Here's a part of my collection: http://sta.sh/025laiaqjzny (photobucket won't let me register for some reason, it has ads and it's really slow on my old laptop).
