G2s have been sold!
Additional pictures on request.
Shady's card is in somewhat rough shape, I received it in this condition. The bubble is pulling away from the card and looks like it was hot glued. The card is also bent in half and permenantly creased and floppy. There is also some sharpie writing (looks like a ?) over the title. Asking $50 OBO.
Lofty's card is in much better shape. It's a little wavy but that's pretty much it. Asking $100 OBO.
Brother Countdown is is decent shape. There's a small tear on one side of the front (can send pictures, it's a bit hard to describe but it's less that 1"). The point point thing was also cut off the back. Asking $80 OBO.

Price Check Archives / PC: MOCs and others
« on: November 06, 2015, 03:35:29 PM »
Was hoping I could get a price check on some of my MOC ponies and a couple other ponies I'm considering selling: MOC Lofty, MOC Twilight, MOC Shady and loose Twilight and Nightglider

Shady's card has some issues, as you can see. It's badly creased, the bubble came off partially and was glued, and someone scribbled on it a bit with sharpie. It came to me like this. The other MOC ponies are better, just the typical waviness to the cards that seems to be common with a lot of MOC ponies.

Loose Twilight is over all in decent shape for a SS pony, just missing flocking in the usual places, and a little dingy all over. Her hair is still quite pink.

Nightglider is mint, I don't see any flaws and she has her original ribbon.

Album with pictures of all here: http://s1137.photobucket.com/user/twistedwindsox/library/For%20sale

Thank you for your help!

Off Topic / Axolotl eggs photo log! :)
« on: October 16, 2013, 01:58:08 AM »
10/20
I decided I should just tack this on to the original post :) I've been taking at least one picture of the eggs every day since they were laid on 10/16.

Day 1 (10/16):

Day 2: (10/17)

Day 3: (10/18) This isn't a very good picture but you can kind of see how the embryos are going more oblong than perfectly round

Day 5: (10/19) See how flat theyare here? :)

I will add another photo later today. The embryos now kind of look like little slugs with nubs where their gills will grow in over the next couple days. :)

Today I woke up to quite the surprise waiting for me in my axolotl tank.
For the past year I've had two axolotls, Flula and Pipsqueak. Flula was a confirmed male, and since I wasn't too interested in breeding I set out to get another male axie. I was pretty sure Pipsqueak was male...
Until I woke up this morning.
I noticed last night that he seemed to be floating a bit, so I would figured if he didn't stop over night I'd check him out in the morning (floating is a sign of gas built up in the gut and although that itself isn't dangerous, it can stress the axie out to not be on the bottom of the tank).
Well, I got up to see "him" still "floating" at the top of the tank, so I rolled out of bed to see what the deal was...
And the deal was that "he" was laying eggs on the plants, the filter, the wood, EVERYTHING that HER eggs would stick too.  :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
AHHH?!
Now I'm trying to get an old tank cleaned out to put the eggs in and secure some brine shrimp and a brine shrimp hatchery for them. o_o
I still feel weird about the fact that she's a girl! I thought this whole time she was a boy.
Should I rename her?  :shocked:

Off Topic / Does anyone know what they're gonna be for Halloween?
« on: September 24, 2013, 07:57:07 PM »
I didn't see a post on this yet so I figured I'd make one :)
Does anyone have any ideas as to what they're going to be for Halloween? Have you started on your costumes? I'd love to see pictures if you have!

Price Check Archives / PC on various G1s
« on: September 21, 2013, 01:25:04 PM »
Hello!
I just need a PC on the following ponies:

MOC Baby Brother Countdown

Baby Brother Paws w/ Bandanna

Chief (also Chief + acc)

Daddy Apple Delight

Bright Bouquet Family: This one may be a bit tricky to price. I bought these ponies MIB but the box was water damaged really badly (the back was disintigrated) so I opened it up (I pretty muh bought this because I felt justified opening it because it was so bad). Mommy and Baby have water damage (brown splotches) but the Daddy in extremely minty. I have all the accessories and the charm that came with them.
Mommy:

baby:

They still look really good on display, but the splotches on the mum are particularly bad.

Thanks!

Customs / Wanted: Black hair!
« on: September 07, 2013, 09:49:14 PM »
Hi all!
I need to buy some black hair, but I would rather not order from Dollyhair (seems to be the only seller in the US...) as my last order took FOREVER to get from them.
Does anyone have 1 or 2 hanks of black hair that they'd be willing to sell? I don't care if it's Nylon, Saran, Kanekelon etc., I'm fine with whatever. I just need enough to re-root a standard-size G1.
Thanks so much! (and if you have more than that, I'll buy up to enough for two G1's, I'm planning two customs with black hair :) )

Pony Brag Arena / Another bit of pony luck
« on: September 01, 2013, 08:39:16 PM »
We went to a decent-sized flea market today in another town, and wouldn't you know it, I found some pretty nice ponies! I got these (plus a couple others and some fakies that aren't pictured) for 50 cents a piece (the fakies were free  ;) )  Most of them were extremely grubby (especially the white ponies, eek!) but they cleaned up so well. I also got my first deflock project pony (Truly, not pictured), man, I'm usually against deflocking ponies, but she was almost totally bald except some patches on her back legs, butt and head.  :blink: I'll post pictures of her when she's done being deflocked.
(Oh, and SS Twilight's and the Sundae Best pony's hair are both still really pink! The picture washed it out a lot)

DANZIG!!! Omg! When I first saw him my heart started beating so fast and I couldn't breathe. I walked away to calm down and while I was paying Cody talked to him and then asked if I could get a picture with him. Ahhhh!!!! He's so nice and calm in real life, I regret not asking if I could hug him in the picture but I was so nervous I couldn't talk. ^-^'
I got to meet my idol Ahhh!

Hello all! I just got these G2s in a lot off of craigslist, just wondering what they're worth. :) The playsets were opened VERY carefully to make sure everything inside was still in the bags and sealed, etc.
Thanks!

Pony or non-pony crafts or artistic endeavors!
I always love seeing what everyone is drawing/painting/sewing/scrapbooking/etc! Or tell me about something your writing!

I've been sewing some lately, and yesterday I made a Minion! He's not quite done yet, but I'm happy with how he came out. I made the pattern all by myself, without help or refering t other patterns, and I'm really proud of it. :)

« on: July 07, 2013, 03:37:48 PM »
I'm going to sell off the majority of my Blind Bags soon, so I'm just wondering what the average prices are for ponies from waves that aren't available in stores any more. I have all of wave one, a few wave two, a few wave three, most of wave four. I also that the two exclusive BB sets from TRU.
Thanks in advance! And if there are any I should keep a look out for that are worth more, let me know. :)
