Pony Corral / New Hunter Leisure Plushies?
« on: August 11, 2014, 08:49:43 PM »
I got these guys at an event, in an MLP themed show bag.

I've never seen or heard of these before, so I was wondering if you guys had seen them before.

Their tags have the Hunter Leisure logo, and a Hasbro copyright 2014, so I assume that means they're licensed and fairly new.

It looks like Hunter Leisure makes them (they also import toys to Australia, but it seems they produce these themselves), though they are quite different from the ribbon-haired ones they make. So far it's just these four, which is the same as the ribbon-haired ones.

Sigs & Site Support / Session Verification Problem
« on: May 08, 2014, 10:13:15 PM »
I keep getting an error that says "Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again." when I try to edit my profile or log out. It won't actually let me log out, though, it just keeps giving me that error.

Any idea how I can fix this so I can update my profile?

Pony Brag Arena / BAB Fluttershy is so pretty!

I got a BAB Fluttershy for my birthday today! Fluttershy usually isn't my favorite, but man is she pretty! Her Gala dress is stunning!

This picture makes her face look a little funny, but it's adorable I promise.

More of the dress. It's satiny and very pretty.

Haha, sorry about the headless ponies and stuff in the background. This is my painting table, and I didn't think about it when taking the pictures.

Customs / Hair Styling?
« on: September 30, 2013, 05:39:24 PM »
I'm making a custom of Cloudchaser. (She's the purple one.)

I'm wondering how I could get her hair to stick up like that, and most importantly stay that way. I'm sure I'll have to give her some extra plugs in her head to get the full effect, but I'm unsure what to do to get it to stick up.

I've heard that hairspray is bad for pony hair, and I don't know if glue (or modge podge?) would dry opaque enough to not make it look dull. Ideas?

Price Check Archives / PC NIB Pony Wedding Set?

Picked one up at Wal*Mart, and I'm wondering what it's worth since I've not seen one for sale.

Pony Corral / Aurora Plushie Dot Removal
« on: September 18, 2013, 09:46:45 PM »
I really like the Aurora plushies, but I'm not too fond of those little foily dots on some of Pinkie, Applejack, and Fluttershy. So I wondered if it was possible to remove them.

This is what I learned...

* The dots appear to be printed on the fuzzy fabric, on top of the 'fur'.

* They can be pulled off, but not very easily.

* They can be wiped off with a few swipes from a cotton ball with 100% acetone. The first few swipes take off the color, and the next couple take off the glue. This process does not take very long.

* The pattern on my table cover can also be removed with acetone, and it is a bad idea to work on top of it without something to protect it.

* Acetone will also wipe the colored dots off of shimmery fabric that is on the purses, and the other three ponies.

* Acetone will not discolor the fabric, screw up the texture of it, or mess up the color of the embroidery. The fabric was soaked in acetone and allowed to dry, and it still came out just like new!

* The ponies can be machine washed and dried. The machine does not remove the foil dots, screw up the fuzziness of the fabric (washing it a lot might make it less soft, though!) or make the plushie lumpy.

Now for pictures!

Pony Corral / Twinkle Star Lights Rainbow Dash
« on: September 18, 2013, 06:33:50 PM »
I went to TRU today, and was surprised to see something I hadn't even heard about. It's called 'Twinkle Star Lights', and it appears to be the Funrise Rainbow Dash (but lying down) with plastic wings with holes and lights in them.

(Picture from Equstria Daily.)

The box implies that there is/will be a Fluttershy, too, but I didn't see one.

I would have taken pictures, but I didn't have a camera on me. They look and feel just like the Funrise plushies. They seem to be about the same size as a 10in Funrise, but bigger in the body, but don't quote me on that.

Wanted! / Muffins/Bubblebutt
« on: September 18, 2013, 05:06:04 PM »
Looking to buy a loose Muffins/Bubblebutt from the TRU 2013 collection! I'd like to get it at a decent price without having to buy the whole set.

I'm okay with a less than perfect one, but I'd like to know if she has any flaws before buying. :frog:

Pony Corral / Aurora Plushie Question
« on: September 10, 2013, 06:23:02 PM »
For any of you who have the Pinkie Pie or Applejack Aurora plushies, could you tell me more about the little sparkly things in their hair? How well attached are they? Do you think it would be possible to remove them with some effort?

Off Topic / Favorite Disney Princess?
« on: September 08, 2013, 04:42:30 PM »
Shhh, Nala is totally a princess. Just a fuzzy one.

I like a lot of them, personally. I always really liked Jasmine growing up, and Ariel, too. Mulan is really awesome, of course. I think I empathize most with her. I really like the more spiritual size of Pocahontas, though I think her story could have been presented better. I have not seen Brave yet, but Merida looks interesting.

Nala's totally my favorite, though. She's tough and strong and... fuzzy.

What do you guys think?

I'm looking to buy a G4 Blossomforth Brushable for a friend, preferably MIB. I'd like to buy from a US seller if possible.

Pony Corral / It GLOWS!
« on: August 18, 2013, 02:06:07 PM »
I got a Shadowbolt Dash today. I didn't know until I got it home that it glows in the dark! The yellow parts (her goggles and the lightning bolts) glow. Eee, so excited. I love glowy stuff.

Here she is if you haven't seen her yet.

I can't get a good picture of her glowing, though. If any of you know how to take a picture of that sort of thing, I'll be happy to try it.

Customs / Glitter?
« on: July 25, 2013, 09:37:21 PM »
How would you put glitter onto a pony in a way that doesn't flake off, yellow, or start to crack over time?

I want to put some glitter on just the horn of a unicorn, so it would be best if I could paint it on, not spray it on.
