Wanted! / Looking for Quackers to Debug With

« on: April 25, 2020, 11:29:03 AM »

Hey there! I'm going into computer programming in college and of course I'll need my "rubber duckie" to debug my code with. I thought instead of that, I'd have a pony! And what better rubber duckie pony is there than Quackers?

SO! I'm looking for g1 adult Quackers. She doesn't have to be mint, but in very good or better condition. I live in the US and have paypal and zelle.

Pony Corral / Advice on Styling G4 Hair

« on: March 20, 2015, 02:05:27 PM »

Hey there Arena!

So, I've been doing a round of fresh hair styling on all my ponies and, having come to my g4s, have reached an impasse. I can't seem to find styles that work on them. Either the curl(s)/straight hair cover up their entire body and symbol OR their hair won't lay flat when combed to lay on their non-display side (not to mention this blocks some of the lovely hair colors in g4!). I've tried wrapping their hair/head and neck in a paper towel and pinning it closed to make their hair dry flat against them, but it doesn't seem to work. I've never had that kind of problems with the previous generations- did something change in the fourth generations hair make up?

So Arena! How do YOU style your g4's hair? Can anybody give me some tips or ideas? I've got pegasi, unicorns, and earth ponies who all need some new hairdos!

Hey there Arena!

I just got a new bag and it needs some ponies on it to truly be mine. I'm looking for g1 patches much like this one of Galaxy. I'd prefer unicorns, but I'm open to taking a look at any you might have.

Wanted! / WTB: g1 Mimic! UPDATE! GOT HER!

« on: November 28, 2012, 06:15:23 AM »

Hey there Arena!

I'm yet another collector looking for the elusive Mimic.... But it's not for me!

My best friend has had an extremely tragic and difficult year- moving to a new state, hospitalizations for both herself and her mother, death in the family, and more. So, naturally, I want to make Christmas extra special for her this year. Mimic has long been her grail pony, so I thought what would make a better present than that?

I'm looking for relatively nice condition, especially for hair and body. Some symbol and eye damage is fine- I can repair that. But I am willing to look at any offering! Being that this is for my friend, I am not afraid to spend the $$$ that comes with a pony like Mimic.

Help my friend have a bit of light at the end of a dark year, Arena! Help me find Mimic!

EDIT!!

Thanks to the lovely Cate_Dartfinger, this Christmas wish has been filled! Thank you so much Arena!!!

Pony Corral / Hydrogen Peroxide Turned Sugarberry's Hair Gold!

« on: February 27, 2012, 02:11:37 PM »

This is actually a pony belonging to my best friend, but I just had to post this here. She's been soaking a G1 Sugarberry in hydrogen peroxide to attempt to whiten up her body. The pony was kept out of the sun during the soak and was checked everyday. Everything was going fine- I even saw the pony daily in the hydrogen peroxide while there for 9 days- and she'd been in there for about two weeks total when my friend forgot to check her for a few days. She came back to find.... this!

Both her and I are completely shocked! There'd been no change to her hair or any signs of the color leaking out until this. Her hair hasn't become brittle or dried like bleached hair typically does. The coloring is very consistent with little to no deviations in tone. I've done some work with hydrogen peroxide and whitening ponies before and never seen ANYTHING like this! And even then I wouldn't think Sugarberry's vibrant pink hair would turn so golden yellow if bleached. Anybody ever had this happen to them?
