The Dollhouse / FOR SALE: Luts DELF El BJD , UK/Europe, any interest?
« on: October 28, 2013, 08:21:44 AM »
I don't like Den of Angels...I don't like Ebay...is it ok if I see if there is any interest here?
I don't like to ship stuff, so 'pickup' would be pereferable (UK, either London, or, Hampshire near Salisbury) I *may* be able to ship but it may be quite expensive I would need to research that and get back to you with a quote (heavy!! and I'm not quite accustomed to shipping large stuff)

I was thinking of asking £195. New boys are worth £277 from the site.
Keeping within Europe would help people avoid them pesky customs fees. My fee was over £40 when I bought him.

- Normal type flesh tone.
- Resin has not 'yellowed' he is even colour throughout.
- He is human, not elf
- Old 'boy' body type (similar height I think as 'new' boy, but not muscular. Does not have the extra joint in torso. When wearing clothes, all the boy body types look the same in my opinion. But please research old boy body type for Luts Delf boy if you are not familiar
- No damage but one ear has a piercing (bottom of lobe). Some scraping around the headcap (covered by wig anyway)
- Some putty stuck inside head (should not be problem)
- I completely removed his faceup , there is some very small dark staining in corners of his eyes; but, this is where you would expect to put the eye makeup anyway
- Can include his original glass eyes and underwear (no extra cost)
- Original box is missing
- I have some clothes and wigs for sale that could be included for small extra cost if you were also interested in those

My family is moving and alot of my stuff is there (bad me). Some (newer) ponies are being sold on or given away. A loooot of other things also have to go.
I'm lucky to still have all my favourite ponies I had as a child and I love them, but there are a lot of cuddly toys I sort of miss a little when I see pictures of them. Anyway, this got me thinking -

Would you give up every pony you have bought for yourself since childhood, if it meant you could get back all your most precious childhood ponies? (even if it means giving up hundreds for the sake of 3 or 4?)

And if you still have them, which would you choose anyway?

The Dollhouse / How to deep-clean and disinfect Sylvanian Families?
« on: September 20, 2013, 07:48:01 AM »
(Sorry if dollshouse thread is not correct area?)

Had a traumatic Dolls house incident today.

Got my dollhouse of the attic - to find mice had moved in. Everything was disgusting. I had to throw it all away, except for some of the sylvanians in residence who i would like to keep.

I know that because of flocking, certain methods like bopiling water and bleach would not work as it would certainly remove flocking. They were in an extremely nasty biohazzard squat-hole (I wont go into more detail but....it was BAD) and I need them CLEAN clean!

Any tips?

Sorry about the watermark :huh:


Anyway I made the fluttershy for myself to get an idea, then did the others, it's very rough o_0 I think they would get by with short hair, and Applejack would not look like herself without freckles

I've no experience with this  :blush: There is something..I must have! I understand if the buyer does not wish to ship outside their country.
 Is there some kind of 'between' company I could use? Not sure what sort of service this would be called! I am getting the weirdest google results?

 :| I'll keep it short...
I made an expensive (for me) purchase from someone, let them know I had paid  - but they would not reply to me for 20+ days despite my 2 polite enquiries and plenty of online activity from them. Only after a very direct message about my concerns I got a reply minutes later and pony was post-marked sent the next day.
They have excellent feedback I would not want to tarnish, I mean I did receive a pony exactly as described, I hope it was just a one off. But is it normal for me to have worried about it? I don't buy and trade here much

Pony Corral / Ponies you reeeaallly wanted but didn't have as a kid
« on: March 08, 2012, 03:41:06 AM »
I had a look but I don't know if there is a topic like this running already  :blush:
OMG I wanted wind whistler sooo much because of her role in the movie and cartoons, (I thought she was so serene and wise) that me and mum looked for her in the shops a few times!...of course, the movie was made in 1986 and I was born in 1986, so this was about 5 years and she was no longer sold. She was the first one I bought later, as a collector!
I also wanted Princess Tiffany - because of the Princess Ponies episode!
Locket, because from the Princess Ponies episode she looked like Wind Whistlers best buddy - and I would need her to go with WW of course
Baby Gusty I had a Gusty (my fave!) and an image of a Mum and baby Gusty together on a hanging tile thingy! I wanted to recreate that image
Strawberry Fair/sugarberry I was aware of her existence because she was on the front cover of one of my pony videos and I thought she looked amazing!
Spike! Because, the cartoons!
A Secret Surprise pony! I remember the adverts and wanting one sooo much! My cousin had one and I was jealous haha.
MAGIC HAT! omg that old advert on one of my mlp video's lol! 'My magic message ponies, lalala...' but, that was before my time also. I did see  'Bunny Hop' in the shop (who sorta resembled Magic Hat) and was smitten lol, then my my got me *gasp* Singing Pocket for Christmas (not Bunny Hop, waah! LOL) But I loved Singing Pocket anyway
TAF FIFI! (Gosh I fell hard for advertising) from the pretty parlour advert! I loved her curly hair and horrible eyeshadow at the end, yaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Sweet Stuff She was so cute and nice in the cartoons!
Baby Lofty and Heartthrob because...cartooons!
Rosedust or ANY flutter pony! Because of the movie!  :biggrin:  I bought Rose Dust when I started collecting and was shocked at the size...I thought they were more like the size of pony bride or something, wow I was wrong!!
A boy pony Because...cartooons! The big brother pony episode was my favourite
I was also very drawn to Masquerade, and other twinkle eye ponies from their little illustration in the  free booklets, so pretty!
And finally, my cousins Twinkler, which she later gave to me (bwahaha, great success!) though I never did get that secret surprise pony

Anyway, which ponies did you guys want and why? :)

Pony Corral / Who is this pony?
« on: February 09, 2012, 12:04:23 PM »
I hope it's ok to post, it's an ended auction.
Who is this?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200695321121?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
 
The question has been bothering me for years because I also have this pony. I bought her when she was new, she came packaged with a purple and white princess damsel hat ...and she is REALLY squidgy soft, not like other g1s. (She and her hat are in storage ><) Can't remember what writing was on the box. My mum said she acknowledged her as NOT mlp when we were buying her in the shop :/ We got her in a discount shop, not a chain toy store .
 I had always considered her to be a fakie (even when I was a child), but now I think she could be real?  :blink: It's driving me crazy. I asked the seller about her (who was ever so nice!) and they replied this pony has the right markings on the feet (gah, I so need to check mine. She was punished with storage years ago cause I though she was a fakie...)
