Wanted-Takara ponies
« on: July 27, 2015, 07:08:42 PM »
Hello all ^-^

I'm interested in buying one of the Takara ponies and they are hard to find.Is there anyone selling or trading a Takara pony?.I would love to get my hands on the adults and the real babies. The Takara ponies are really hard to find and I can't believe a real baby Takara pony costs about $1,000.00 on Ebay.I'm not paying that much for a pony like that on Ebay.

I know the baby ponies for the Takara line had baby animal friends a few years before Hasbro did the Baby Ponies and Pretty Pals (I think the Takara ones are more cuter than the Hasbro ones IMHO).I would love to get my hands on the Takara baby animal friends.

I have some G1 ponies and 80s toys I could trade for a Takara pony

Thank you

As far as we know none of the Animal Friends have been found from the Takara line.

The Adults and Babies are rare and very hard to find since they are treasured by their owners.
Good luck! :)

Were the Takara animal friends just prototypes that never got sold?.

I also follow you on Flickr (AKA RollChan1985) and how the heck were you able to buy the Takara ponies?.

We aren't sure but they've only appeared in the photos as far as we know.
I talk about it on my brag thread but I bought two privately and one from an auction.

I own three adult Takaras, and they were each over $3000. Mine are in great condition and came with their boxes/accessories.

Any adult takara, even one in fairly poor condition, will be over $1000, unfortunately. They are some of the rarest collectible toys in existence.

Yeah Takara ponies are super hard to find and when they do pop up, they're pretty pricey. I think the adults range between $3,000 to $4,000, but I'm not too sure about the babies. I'm actually not too certain about sellers trading their ponies for Takara ponies because they are quite treasured as mentioned above. But maybe if you trade some HTF/rare ponies, some sellers may be willing :) Unfortunately, I doubt any takara would be any less than $1,000 unless you find one at a garage sale or something haha! Someone on instagram found her takara at a garage sale for 21 yen! which is like under a dollar haha! And someone on the area got her Fuwa-Fuwa (fluffy haired takara) for $50! Such great bargains haha!

You might get lucky and find one much cheaper :)
Looking for Takara ponies (Pinky)! :enthralled: :cold:
