Pony Corral / Re: Weird pink Baby Billie's bunny... may have found some new info!

Do we have a moc picture of that Sindy nightgown or any other information? Does anybody have it?

To be honest, I am still pretty convinced that the bunny came with the pony because of this childhood pony auction...

Looks very similar, thanks for sharing! But both mine and the one currently on ebay have painted noses while the Sindy bunny seems to have her nose not painted... does anyboy know if these outfits were released in Germany?

Now I will dig through boxes with Barbie accessories even more to find that kitty  :biggrin:

I also ask myself why the purple bunny wasn't in the seller's childhood collection box. But there could be many explanations for that... without a moc picture we'll never know for sure I guess.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't belong to another toy line. I searched GotD high and low and some other great vintage toy sites too and never stumbled across anything like it.

My moc one is German and her bunny is normal.

I noticed that too, when I saw the MOC picture on your website :) I also know of German collectors who still have their purple bunny from childhood.

The seller answered. She said all of her ponies and accessories were stored away in a box. She can't remember them in their original packing as she was -of course- a child back then ;) But the three pets were in that box too, and she didn't have the purple bunny, so most likely this is the exact bunny her baby Billie came with.

I am pretty excited!

Some here may remember that I started this thread some time ago, wondering about my pink little weirdo bunny:

We also discussed it here http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,379732.msg1550688.html#msg1550688
and here too http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,298880.msg241777.html#msg241777

Picture is broken (thanks, photobucket!) but here it is again:

I may have found some new information now. I stumbled across this photo in an auction in Germany:

The seller states that these are her childhood ponies. I already sent her a message if she can confirm that the pink bunny came with this Baby Billie.
If she does, this would be a small sensation for me! I got mine from a German seller too. So this might be something like a German/European variant of the bunny :) and the mystery might finally be solved!

On this FAQ page they say that you will still have access to your photos:

But I don't trust them, especially after reading the blog entry Libelle shared  :blink: :shocked:

Thank you!

I am veeery happy with the Schleich horses :) they were a steal, too.

Yes, they are Monchhichis, granpa and granma :) A friend of mine collects them and she wanted the granpa so badly, I am very happy that I could snag them for her :) I was searching for them for a while now, as she doesn't attend flea markets that much.
