Thanks all! I've given them all a scrub down and conditioned their hair. I'll take an after pic when they're dry.

If a seller agrees to hold something for you for a period of time, he or she ought to hold it! You should leave flaker feedback if you can, that way other buyers can be warned about the seller's behavior.

Pony Brag Arena / 1st brag post! TAF G1s!

Here is a lot of 6 TAFs with a carrying case I won an auction for! They're in such good shape, just a little dirty but nothing a magic eraser can't fix :) I'll be giving them some spa time today!

Since you're selling handmade items, you may want to check out etsy.com. I've never sold on that site so I don't know what the fees are like, but it may be worth looking into =)

Great! I was thinking I'd have to give them a boil perm. Good to know their hair will hold curl from just being in rollers.

Hi all! I have a newb question for you, hope you don't mind. I just received a lot of TAFs (will post pics in Brag Arena this evening) and they all have super dry hair. I'd like to condition it, but 2 of them (Bonnie Bonnets & Dancing Butterflies) still have a good bit of factory curl, though it's dry and somewhat frizzy. Is there a way for me to condition their hair w/out loosing the curl? I'll be using STP Son of a Gun to condition the rest of the ponies (I've used it with good results on vintage Blythe) unless someone has a better alternative for that.


TIA!

When I first got into BJDs I wished you could rent them! Just to see how you liked different sizes and such, 'cause the BJD community in my area is virtually non-existent. Hmmm... wonder if there is a market for a Rent-A-Doll service...

Notdoll Lab carries Roxy Dolls, which are tiny (about 18cm) BJDs that are somewhat mature.

The faces look somewhat child like on most of them, at least to me, but you'd be amazed what a face-up can do to alter the look of a doll. The problem with these little ones is it can be difficult to find clothing for them, but if you're handy with a needle you can make all kinds of awesome outfits out of scraps.

Gotta echo what others have said about BBB/RS posing ability, it's not that great. Should you choose to go the RS route (and who could blame you if you did, their sculpts are so sweet!) be prepared to restring and suede right out of the box to even get your doll to sit up on her own. I had to do that to my RS Dan and my BBB Sprite. The elastic used by RS/BBB is way too thin and weak to have the tension needed to support the weight of the resin, and the dolls are super floppy out of the box.

For RS Yao, you'll need a size 6/7 wig and 12-14mm eyes I believe. She's considered a slim mini so keep that in mind when clothes shopping or looking at patterns. Also keep in mind if you choose to blush her hooves be prepared for constant touch ups. The blushing will chip, there's just no way around it.

As for wigs and such, I have a crap ton of BJD clothes/wigs/shoes/eyes that I'm too lazy to list for sale on DOA. Shoot me a PM with what you're looking for and if I have something you like you can have it for the price of postage.

Here I am with my noble steed Jupiter, my real life Little Pony. He's a rescue! When I got him he was pretty "baity" but now he's plump and pretty again.

Here's me and Jupiter! He's a 14 hand foundation Morgan I rescued from a lady who had too many horses to feed. He's a sweetheart! I'd love to one day have a custom MLP that looked like him.

Oh gosh, everywhere! Mostly the backyard and my bedroom, though I never took a bath without Minty! Poor Minty :)
