Hi There :)
« on: January 02, 2016, 01:06:49 PM »
Hi from Minnesota!

   I'm new to collecting.  Back in August my mom gave me my ponies from my childhood and I was devastated to discover that several had been pretty much destroyed by her boyfriends 6 year old twins.  We're talking buzz cuts and 1/2 inch tails.  Thinking they were ruined I started looking around ebay to see if I could find some replacements.  This led me to realize I missing TONS of ponies I used to have, my mom isn't sure what happened or where they may be.  It also led me to discover the world of pony restoration.  I was amazed to discover that there's still hope for my ponies!  I have begun working on cleaning and restoring my collection of about 40 G1 ponies.  I have about six that need rehairing badly but have run into a few obstacles along the way, I'm hoping I can still save my Gusty but I'm not very confident now.  I'm excited to save my beloved ponies and hoping to add to my collection as well.

Hi, ksfraggle! Welcome to the Arena!

Oh no!  :cry: It hurts to see the result of children playing so rough with treasured toys. I'm glad we have restoration options now, and I hope you're able to get them all back to their former glory. Enjoy the forums!
