I'm not that great at painting ponies, but I think she's cute!

Pony Corral / PC on Minty V
« on: July 04, 2018, 08:15:40 PM »
I have a loose Minty V in quite nice condition that I've been meaning to sell for a while because I have doubles of her and I can't really afford to store doubles, and I'm having some trouble figuring out how to price her. Anyone have an idea?

Pony Corral / Show me your armies!
« on: June 09, 2017, 06:20:16 PM »
I just want to see people's pony armies! I have a Minty army and a Wind Whistler... two-pony strike team? What do you call a tiny collection? that need some tidying up before they're photo-ready, but I like seeing what ponies other people love and collect!

hopefully this is the right board for this, I've been a little out of the loop for a while & am still getting my sea legs back

Hi! So I bought the Wonder Woman Mattel doll with her blue dress and sword because oh no she's gorgeous, but I realized when I was unboxing her that the two little plastic ties that held her head in place to the cardboard backing are stuck directly into her hair. Is there any way to remove those? Or is my best option to just trim them really close and push them in a little so they won't show?

Picture in case anyone's not sure what I'm talking about:

Customs / G1 Baby and G4 Wind Whistlers
« on: June 30, 2016, 08:41:11 PM »
I finished these a good while ago but just realized I didn't post them. Well. I think I posted one of them, but her hair was still in mohawk phase because I hadn't learned how to style it yet.

I like to think that my customs are very inspirational, in the sense that it shows you what you can do if you're not actually very good in addition to having stupid fingers that aren't steady, but forge ahead anyway.

DAT CUTE PONY FACE. Baby Wind Whistler used to be Baby Surprise, so she was a full repaint and rehair. Well. Mostly full repaint. I kept most of Surprise's eyes.

And Wind Whistler was a Fluttershy, so she only needed the repaint. Look at those adequately recognizable cutie marks! (They are on both sides, but the pictures of their other sides turned out blurry.)

Pony Corral / Minty Blind Bag Wave 12
« on: October 22, 2015, 06:36:46 PM »
I've been out of the loop for a while, so I just wanted to check: wave 12 blind bag Minty. Is there any particular difference between this one and wave 1's Minty, or is it basically just a re-release?

Thanks!

The Dollhouse / Elsa Watch 2014!
« on: March 03, 2014, 01:38:08 PM »
For those of us waiting for Elsa(s) to return to the Disney Store and shelves, here's a place to commiserate and congregate while we F5 the heck out of the website. I know it's already back in stock on disney.co.uk, but not the American version of the site (yet!).

Feel free to post silly things like pictures of your dolls waiting for her arrival, too.

Trader & Shipping Support / Item on hold apparently sold to someone else. :/
« on: September 08, 2013, 06:20:13 PM »
So I'm not completely certain yet - either the other person had the hold first or I did, but either way, I inquired about a lot of doll hair and asked if purchase could be deferred until the weekend, after I got my paycheck. Seller said that was fine, they could do it if I was really interested, and I told them that would be great.

Three days later, I tell them I'm good to go. And.... nothing, although MLPArena tells me they opened the message. A week later, I inquire about it again, making it clear that I was still interested. Nothing again.

And now, I find out that someone else bought the lot a month ago, and the seller never informed me or even updated their sale page. So either they sold it to someone else while it was on hold for me, or they were going to sell it to me while it was on hold for someone else, but either way? Not cool. ESPECIALLY the lack of communication.

So... yeah. A wee bit cheesed off now. :enraged:

Pony Corral / Too many at once!
« on: July 22, 2013, 11:13:20 AM »
Anyone else experiencing one of those times when it seems like everything you were looking for shows up at once?  :yikes: My bank account is crying so hard right now. On the one hand, I got some awesome deals (walking pose Mexican Minty and Sharing Tea Minty for a little over $10! Barbie Catwoman for $7 less than Barbie Collector was going to charge me! Clear Glitter Bubbles! Etc.!). On the other hand, I went to a con last week and already spent a lot. I keep trying to convince myself that okay, but this HAS TO BE THE LAST ONE and then up pops something else I was waiting for.

For the latest one, I managed to hold myself back and only submit an offer instead of jumping on the BIN, but part of me wants to just grab that. The other part of me is more sensible and says that it'll show up again sometime, if I wait long enough.

Pony Corral / Connecticon This Weekend! Anyone have a booth...?
« on: July 09, 2013, 08:58:22 PM »
So I'm heading to CONNECTICON this weekend~ :yippee: And it occurred to me to ask if anyone here has a booth/something there I should look out for! I remember there were several booths last year with pony merch/art.

Customs / Tips for removing G3 heads?
« on: June 20, 2013, 05:35:27 PM »
I have a baby G3 and an adult that I want to rehair, but I can't get their heads off. -_-

Pony Corral / Showing off some of my herd!
« on: June 19, 2013, 07:37:38 PM »
Finally! I took these on my cameraphone, so they're not all that great. But you can see~

FIRST, THE MINTYS!

This is actually a relatively old picture - I swapped out the Minty keychain and added a couple to the herd since, but I've got separate pictures for those. L -> R, in the back: Diva Pose Minty, Winter Minty; third row: 3D Symbol Minty, Donkey Pose Minty, Wing Wishes Minty (her accessories are in a bag in the closet pony box); second row: Donkey Pose McMinty, Taco Bueno Minty, Anniversery McMinty; front row: Tiny Tin Minty, Blind Bag Minty, and Keychain Minty.

Phew! Now, for the additions!

Donkey Pose Mexican Minty!

I didn't realize how tiny she was when I won her! She's the same size as the McMintys, but shiny plastic.

Playmat Minty! I just got her. <3 She's in really good shape - I think she had a few dots of dirt or something on her, but it came off fine with a little cleaning. Super-happy to have her~  :accomplished:

Also, since I can't display everything, the last time I cleaned my room, I set up little themed displays around my room. (Except for right next to my computer chair, which has no theme whatsoever >>).

So here's the Time Ponies from the planet Gallopfrey section!

That's all for now, but I might come back to this thread tomorrow or something for more pictures. Stay tuned~

Trader & Shipping Support / Delays on orders fromRetroDolls US?
« on: June 09, 2013, 11:42:11 AM »
I received a notification that an order I placed with RetroDolls was shipped on June 3rd, along with the tracking number. The tracking hasn't been updated since. :/ Is this normal for the seller, or is it likely there's an issue with the USPS/tracking/something?

I rehaired a Wind Whistler custom with pixie pink monofiber hair from Retro Dolls US, and I can't get it to stop sticking out! :yikes: Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I like G1 babies. :3

And ponies with gradients or fancy designs, like G3 Fancy Free.
I'm not big on G3.5.
I don't collect G2.
The only MLP DVD I would really want is A Very Minty Christmas. (Guess why :D)
I also appreciate Barbie clothes.
