Yesterday's Thrift Score

[palaisdejouets]

Whenever I see a G1 pony in a toy bag at the thrift store, I buy it (as I know most of you do). Now, my pony knowledge is far from complete. So initially, I thought this pony, while having an unusually long mane, had managed to receive a tail haircut. I also though, "Wow, this head is loose, but also attached to the body really well!" Then when I was washing and brushing the tail, and it was pulling out of the body, I realized I had completely misjudged this pony. She is a Brush 'n' Grow (Curly Locks, specifically)! And her mane and tail appear to be uncut! The tail ends are pretty frizzy so I'll have to borrow a hair-straightener to try fix it but overall, a great find -- the winding mechanism still works perfectly!

What a great way to find out she was actually a special brush and grow! Curly Locks is a lovely pony - congrats on finding a G1 in the wild.

She looks like she is in lovely condition.  The brush n grow girls have such amazing thick hair which makes them a favourite of mine. Congrats on your find

Thanks all! As far as flaws go, she is missing a few plugs at the bottom right side of her mane and maybe one or two tiny lighter spots that I don't know if they count as regrind?

Congratulations on finding her, and at first when I saw the picture I wondered if she was a rehair, but then I read your post haha

Thank you for sharing!
