Customs / Re: what the hay is Plastimake?

Ooooo! Thats an interesting find! Never heard of it before though.
It does however remind me of the Japanese compound called Oyumaru which is used for modeling and gives precise results for molding as well. In the case of Oyumaru, the plastic is available in sticks that you soften with hot water (so you don't need to do the initial "melting" yourself). It's available in a very wide range of colors including transparent, glitter and glow in the dark! I've used it for making molds but I doubt the Oyumaru material would stick to ponys.
Otherwise there's also Sugru which is a self-setting rubber for fixing, modifying and improving your stuff. From what I've heard, Sugru sticks to virtually anything...
