Condition isn't important, I almost prefer loose toys just so I don't feel too guilty about unboxing them.
-That glittery Applejack from the Elements of Friendship. Comes bundled with an EQG Applejack. Don't really care for the EQG AJ.
From the Nightmare Night collection -Spike -Scootaloo/Pipsqueak -Apple Bloom/Sweetie Belle -Pinkie -Applejack & her stand -Luna's bat guard/chariot
And a G3 Applejack.
Prefer to buy in bulk from the same buyer to save on shipping. Thank you

Found these ladies at a thrift store, in well used condition. One of the Fluttershies had ink all over her face, but was cleaned up easily with a magic eraser. Everypony's hair was a mess, so I straightened that out with a conditioner treatment. The toys still smell faintly of conditioner. Definitely in better condition than I bought them. $1 each, so $3 for the group. About $5 for shipping to the continental US, I've a small scale i can use to estimate a more accurate shipping cost if someone's interested. I can send em out in a box, wrapped up in bubbles. Also have a handful of G4 trading cards. Assorted foils from series 1 & 2, Baltimare 2015 stamped Starlight Glimmer series 3 (two of these), Baltimare 2016 Mane 7 series 4 promo, Series 3 muffins f63 and series 2 DJ Pon3 & AJ promos. Also have a couple CCG promos from various expansions, and some random cards from the Equestrian Friends set. Specific details available via messaging. Would like to sell this entire pile of cards, so make me an offer and chances are I'll accept it.

Thought of a relatively inexpensive way to add "grass" to my shelves so the G4 building playsets look nicer. Currently have the Golden Oaks library, and am looking for the Sweet Apple Acres barn. I think my Walmart might have it, and if not I'll be checking other stores in Knoxville in a couple weeks. Would like to add Rarity's boutique, but that shelf is already getting quite crowded. Oh man, now I want to tack on some sky blue fabric to the wall and attach some happy little clouds. Really bring this whole scene to life.

Howdy everyone. Just bought a small army of assorted G3's at a thrift store, and would like to make sure I'm cleaning/touching them up properly. Soap/water for general grime is easy enough, but what about hair care? How long should you soak them in a conditioner bath? Taking care not to get water inside the toy. And any recommendations on a comb/brush to use? Been working with a plastic comb I've had for a while. See those white markings on the back of Wysteria? They won't wash off, or lightly scraped off. Since they're nowhere near her cutie mark or eyes, I'm gonna try acetone later, but if anyone has other suggestions, I'll consider them. Also I have a G1 Cotton Candy with a missing tail, anyone mind linking me to a re-tailing guide? Thank you

Found these lovely ladies at a thrift store in downtown Crossville TN, in a box with about two dozen assorted G3's, some McD ponies and a G1 pony with a missing tail (pale pink/white w/ small white blobs for a cutie mark). Was tempted to get the whole batch, but paced myself due to a lack of room in which to display all my toys. The condition of these G3's isn't too bad, hair of course is a mess and will take a while to untangle. One of them, Wisteria I think, has some white markings on her other side that won't come off. Not too concerned about that, can't see them unless you look for them. Would anyone mind telling me the names of these ponies? Thank you

Howdy everyone. I've a pile of prints, sketches and stickers I'm trying to attach to a walmart-brand poster frame. What's a good adhesive to use so they don't slip around everywhere when I try to hang said frame? I'm hesitant to use tape, I don't want to tear anything if I decide to rearrange the prints later. Thanks.

Howdy everyone, just looking for some brief advice on how to touch up a couple of my ponies. First victim: Blossomforth See that yellow streak on her leg? Looks like highlighter, but even acetone wouldn't get rid of it. Any other ideas? Second victim: Miss Pommel Think a conditioner treatment would straighten out her mane? Or something a little stronger? Thank you

Huggable Aj plush by http://klplushies.deviantart.com/What really drew me to this cutie was the pose. I'm always looking for something different, and this plush pattern caught my eye. Most plushies feature ponies in standing/sitting poses on hooves, this one you can actually pick up and snuggle a lot easier. Also featured in this pic is a tiny sleeping AJ, though I forgot the artist who made her. Several prints/posters. Couple in there by Andy Price and Jenn Blake, two of my favorite IDW artists. "No Horseplay" playmat from Enterplay. I needed another mousepad. Also got a kick out of the sunburnt Luna in the background. That sticker is of Mane Event, one of Bronycon's mascots. And picked up a complete collection of Enterplay's new Equestrian Friends card set. They're only available at Dollar Tree stores, conventions and "soon" at Enterplay's own store. So I was glad to find them at Bronycon. Probably the most important thing I took away from Bronycon was memories. Spending time with friends and being a part of a positive and exciting environment. Icing in the cake was the then con chair delivering a moving speech about paying it forward during closing ceremonies, shortly after stepping down as con chair, and half of the audience tearing up. Something about this whole experience leaving a mark on me. One of those experiences I'll treasure for a very long time.

Price reduced, gonna sell this whole set for $30 + shipping. Trying to get it off my counter. Found this bunch at a flea market. Looking to sell them as I don't have a lot of room for them. Cleaned them up, some had smudges that came off easy with warm soapy water. Conditioned the hair a bit as well, though the G3 mcdonalds ponies hair was a complete mess to work with. G4's Hairbow Set: Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy and Starlight Glimmer. Still have cards, though some are slightly bent on the corners. Starlight has remnants of a price tag on the top/front, and all have $2.00 written in red ink on the top/back of the cards. Asking $4 each or $15 for the set. G4 Blossomforth $8 Only issue is the streak of yellow on her forehoof. Tried an acetone treatment, but that didn't remove it. G4 Feathermay $10 G4 early release Twilight w/ bangs $8 Head/Body appears to have slightly different colors G4 rainbow power Fluttershy $4 G3.5 McDonalds Sweetie Belle $2 Kinda hard to see in the pic, but looks like someone painted a dab of white on the white part of her eye G3.5 Ponyville Blossomforth $1 or free with a purchase of 2+ ponies Blue fakie $2 G3 Mcdonalds Minty $3 Cutie mark looks damaged G3 Mcdonalds Wysteria $3 G3 Mcdonalds Pinkie Pie $2 Shipping is extra, will calculate depending on how many ponies are ordered. I'll sell everything here for $30 + shipping May take me ~12ish hours to get back to you, my daily free time exists between 2-8pm central. (Also have some MLP CCG card promos, several copies of the cards Enterplay mailed out to select groups)

Older gens G4 toys Found a pile of ponies at a flea market in Sevierville TN. Would someone mind telling me who some of these ponies are, and how much they're worth? I recognize Minty, Wysteria, Pinkie Pie and Sweetie Belle. The hair is a complete mess, and some of these toys have slight marks on them. Found G4 Blossomforth, Feathermay, early release unicorn Twilight w/ bangs, and what I"m pretty sure is Fluttershy from the Rainbow Power wave as well. What's the best way to clean them? A wet cloth, a diluted vinegar solution, or something else? Other issues with their condition: -Minty's cutie mark is a bit faded -Looks like the previous owner dabbed some white out or paint on G3.5 Sweetie's eye. Not the whole thing, just the part of the eye that should be white. -G4 Blossomforth has what looks like highlighter on her front leg. I've some acetone which might take care of that if nothing else works. -G4 Twi has some small scratches on her eye, about the size of a pin point. -G4 Feathermay has a lot more scratches on her eye, nothing too serious though. Let me know if you need any more info, I'll see what I can do. Thank you.

I got them Friendship Blossom ponies a while ago (The ones that came painted with flowery designs all over) and ended up taking off said designs with an acetone treatment. Took off some of the eyes/lashes as well, but I found a friend that should be able to fix them for me.
Fast forward to now, I kinda wish I didn't remove that paint job. On one hand, the uniqueness of that toy line is lost. At first I did not like those extra designs at all, having second thoughts now. And this isn't something I can replace easily, unless I want to shell out $30-40 for a new set of Friendship Blossom ponies. I'm thinking I might feel better about this situation once my friend fixes the eye's paint.
Just felt like talking about this and getting it off my chest.

Bought a clear pink Rarity blindbag w/ green hair & cutie mark from a Chinese Ebay seller. One of them auctions that start at $.01. Couple other strange character/color variations from other chinese/asian sellers out there as well. Just wondering, what's the story behind these? Factory defect, or someone having fun making whatever? I'm actually hoping to see more clear blindbags/brushables. Something different to add to my collection.
