What a fantastic pony - pink hair and her pocket intact! Amazing...congrats
I'll be asking my Granny to keep an eye out for ponies in the future! She seems to be a good luck charm for me.  ;)

Its probably just ingrained dirt if its in the pores. Most of the time it is.
True, true. Hopefully that's all it is anyway. Does smooze usually have a smell? I don't have a sense of smell myself, but after passing her around my house a bit, we've safely concluded that she doesn't have any sort of musty odour to her.

Good thinking! I'm usually too much of a perfectionist when it comes to my display ponies' hair.  >_<  I rewashed a G3 Sunny Daze's hair three times until it came up smooth. Luckily she suffered no ill effects and looks fantastic now, but I really wouldn't risk so many rewashes on a G1. Especially since she's apparently such a lucky find.  :)  Thanks a lot.

Awesome find! I love Bunny Hop! :heart: She looks fantastic. Congratulations!
Thank you! Hopefully she'll look even better after a nice little bath.  ^.^ I don't want the smooze to spread. It seems mostly isolated to the tip of her left ear.

A Bunny Hop with nice pink hair and an intact charm is a great find indeed! Congrats :)
Now I just hope her hair isn't too knotty that it won't smooth out. I don't use flat irons or anything of the sort on pony hair because I'm too afraid of damaging it further. ^^;  Thanks!  ^.^

Ooo you got a good find, I think! It's not easy to find those ponies with the little added toy still attached to the end of the string. I think usually they break off. Hee hee a rabbit in a magic hat. XD Cute!
Ooh, I was thinking it must be a bit of a rarity since the toy is only kept on with string. She is quickly becoming part of my precious herd.  :biggrin:

Her name is Bunny Hop and she's one of the Precious Pocket ponies.  C:  nice find!
Thanks! What an adorable name. :D

Thank you so, so much! I finally get the magic wand theme!

there are only 4 different ponies done in that style, you have Bunny Hop!  careful when cleaning her, that pink hair fades horribly with a little sunlight!
I'll be extra super careful! Thank you!

Pony Corral / Help With G1 Identification?
« on: May 14, 2012, 10:54:19 AM »
My Grandmother very kindly bought me a G1 secondhand MLP, and as it happens, she is now my first G1. I tried looking at Strawberry Reef's pony identification guide but couldn't find her anywhere.  :(  Perhaps she's one of the ponies that still doesn't have a photo uploaded there.

Her hair's pretty nasty and I believe she's developing mold. She's got a few marker marks in inconspicuous places (the underside of one hoof and inside of back leg).
Her paint is in lovely condition, though.

And here's her cutiemark and a view of the little bunny basket (which I've honestly never seen on a G1 before. I'm kinda not too knowledgeable in this area.  >_< )

Her symbol is blue and yellow and seems to be a magic wand or something similar. The basket covers it slightly. She's dated 1990.
Any attempts at helping me would be assuredly thanked.  ;)
Also, apologies if this is not in the correct area.  :blush:  I usually just browse the site and look at the wonderful customs and restorations.

Pony Corral / Re: Which generation of ponies first drew you into collecting them?
« on: May 13, 2012, 01:14:22 PM »
Well, I'm from the G2 era, and growing up I owned about two of them. I'm rather upset I haven't got them anymore. I do still have two G2's given to me by my sisters from when they were little. They gave me them when I first got into FiM and kept talking about ponies. G4s still weren't available here at the time. So, basically, though I wanted G4s, I ended up with G2s. Now I'm open to all generations including fakies. Though I probably wouldn't pay store prices for G3.5, but if I found them in a charity shop or on sale I might pick them up.

I would die if I found free ponies in my postbox, let alone free ponies, directly from Hasbro, that are unreleased.  :shocked:

Customs / Re: Getting rid of pink highlighter?
« on: May 10, 2012, 11:23:16 AM »
Well, I don't have any real experience with highlighter stains, but, have you tried a magic eraser? I hear a lot of customizers use it on pen stains and it works well. I also don't have any experience with an airbrush, though.  >_<  You could try using acetone to get rid of the stain and then wash the bait thoroughly.
