After a VERY long dry spell of not buying any ponies at all, I finally had some spare funds for a pony spree.

MIMIC!
I do already have a Mimic, but this girl was stuck in a lot with Braided Beauty and Daddy Sweet Celebrations. Only one pic and it was hard to tell her condition. So I gambled and won the lot for $69.
She got here today and she's actually in better shape than I thought. I just gave her a bath and need to attack a few marks with acetone. I *might* touch up her faded spots on her symbols. But her hair is lovely, just needed a wee bit of conditioner.
Once she's all cleaned up, I'll prolly put her or the one I already have up for sale (depending on who's nicer).
And I have expanded my small Italian collection with that Italian Starflower! She's SO pretty! I have to say, I much prefer the metallic symbols on these Italian girls to the sparkly paint we had in the US. She'll join my small Italian herd of Applejack, White Tootsie, Bubbles, Seashell, Peachy, and Sparkler. Hooray for my first Italian Rainbow pony!
Baby Lucky Leaf is one of my little grails! She's just so cute! This little sweetie is in serious need of a rehair and I just ordered some hair for her. It's hard to see in the pic, but half of her mane is chopped up and her tail's been snipped as well. Besides, my ponies mean all the more to me when I've had to spend an hour or two rehairing them. Just ask my Lemon Treats.
Baby Alphabet is so cute! I never realized she had freckles before! I picked her up from the same seller when I bought Italy Starflower and Baby Lucky Leaf just because I like to pick up several ponies at a time to save on shipping. And I only have one other UK baby. Baby Bow Tie was lonely! Now to find a Baby Applejack!
I think I spent roughly $100 for all of them, including shipping. Seems like a lot, but considering Mimic can go for that all by herself, I think I did pretty good!
I'll post pics again once they are all cleaned and styled and (in Lucky Leaf's case) rehaired.
UPDATE - 3/24/2012
OK, here they are all cleaned up and styled.
