Pony Corral / Re: What were your pony misconceptions?
« on: May 06, 2018, 01:14:47 PM »
Wait, G1 hooves aren't the date they were made?! :O

I used to be one of those people that also thought G1 ponies were useless and ugly when I first got into MLP back in 2011 when I was 14.
For a while, I used to think that Sweetheart Sister ponies where knock-offs! Another one I had was, and I feel really bad for admitting this, I thought G3 ponies were G2 ponies because on My Little Wiki, it states that G2 ponies stopped in europe at around 2002. I live in the US I thought I had something really special with one of my early G3 ponies from 2002.

The Dollhouse / Re: Should I shave and rehair these two?
« on: May 06, 2018, 12:02:58 PM »
Those are not Barbies, they are both Disney Rapunzel dolls. The first one is a Hasbro release from after 2015, when the rights switched over from Mattel to Hasbro and the second one is an older Mattel one.

Ah, okay, thank you, good to know. I know very little about barbies, and....admittedly I haven't seen Tangled, either. Been meaning to, but never got around to it. So they weren't recogniseable as Rapunzel to me at the time.

The Dollhouse / Should I shave and rehair these two?
« on: May 06, 2018, 10:55:08 AM »
I wanted to start my own barbie collection even though I know very little about barbie, but I'm willing to learn.
I bought a bunch of baity looking barbies while thrifting a few days ago to start off my collection and never realised how horrible these two's hair was. One's got hair so frizzed, it's basically like a sponge and the pick I use to brush doll hair won't go though. The other is overly greasy, and dropped a lot of hair when I tried to carefully brush it out.
Spoiler
Here's the one with sponge-like hair. Yes I'm aware of the fact her arm has been chewed.

And the extremely tangled hair one. I affectionately refer to this one as "Spagehtti-On-A-Fork" because turning her hair the right way looks just like it.

Should I shave their heads and try to rehair them myself (Maybe with yarn?)?

Pony Corral / Re: My Mcdonalds Toola-Roola has a bruise?
« on: May 04, 2018, 04:26:12 PM »
My McDs Starsong has this too, but on a very large area. It might be just the plastic?

Maybe. I do forget that Mcdonalds ponies seem to be made of a different type of plastic, so maybe it's just a quirk of that kind of plastic they used?

Pony Corral / My Mcdonalds Toola-Roola has a bruise?
« on: May 04, 2018, 04:06:10 PM »
Yeah, I just realised this a little while ago, but my newest Mcdonalds Toola-Roola has some sort of discolouration on her forehead that honestly looks like a bruise. It's under the forehead decal....any idea on what this could be? She's pretty shiny so I couldn't get really good pictures of her up close, but I tried:

The normal G3 pony is a Butterpop! I cleaned her and the two Mc'ds G3 ponies after I took the picture with some dish soap.

Speaking of Mcdonalds G3s, this poor Starswirl was found by a dog judging by the bite marks. poor baby, but not much I can do without air dry clay. But, maybe my other Mcdonalds Starswirl will be like a sister for her and help her when she can!

Pony Corral / Re: Let's Talk About My Pretty Pony!
« on: May 03, 2018, 02:33:33 PM »
I've seen some My Pretty Ponies on ebay before, and while having one would be nice, she does look a bit fragile. Is she actually made of plastic, or is she made of the same vinyl G1s are made of except bigger?

Off Topic / Re: Dragoncave
« on: May 03, 2018, 05:19:31 AM »
I actually made an account there 2 months ago, so I guess I collect eggs!
Still not knowledgeable on which ones are rare or good...I mostly look for funny code names at the moment. Also skywings. I collect those.

Pony Corral / Re: What is your favorite pony color?
« on: May 02, 2018, 05:02:43 PM »
Considering my favorite colour is purple, it should be obvious what my favorite pony colour is. However, looking at my collection, it's shown me white in most cases does very well, so white is a close second for me.

Pony Brag Arena / Re: New display
« on: May 02, 2018, 04:04:09 AM »
That must have taken you quite a bit of time! It's totally worth the effort though because now you have room for more new ponies.  You have a lovely collection so far :D :D

If I remember, it only took me about two hours, and a majority of that was cleaning and styling my G4 brushable pony's hair because most of it was going WILD. And thanks!  :biggrin:

Pony Corral / Re: Any other Totsy Fans?
« on: May 02, 2018, 04:01:48 AM »
I have one pink one, who had an unfortunate haircut+braid job, but I still love her anyway. Her name is Peach-Shine. Totsy ponies are very cool! I just love their expression <3

She's so cute! Do you have a design for the cutie mark?

I do, actually!!
I just redesigned her mark and came up with this

Arts & Crafts Corral / My 'sona, as it were
« on: May 01, 2018, 11:06:44 AM »
This is Paramountain, a G3 pony I thought I'd want to share :biggrin:

 She's my main pony persona character. She's based on my love for company logos, and her colours are based on colour-picked sections of one of the Paramount logos.
 Paramountain is a big 'ol nerd and loves to gush about her interests, even if the other one she's talking to doesn't seem as interested.

Pony Corral / Re: Least Favorite Gimmick
« on: April 30, 2018, 04:08:44 AM »
Might I also add, I was never really a huge fan of tinsel hair ponies. I know that they're in every generation, so it's probably not a gimmick at this point, but I think it is....and I find it very hard to brush straight in most cases.

Pony Corral / Re: pro tinsel or no tinsel?
« on: April 30, 2018, 04:04:55 AM »
Personally, not a fan of tinsel because I find it REALLY hard to brush straight when washing a dirty pony's hair.
I will admit it does look pretty, but to me, the brushing outweighs the cute factor.
