I was happy to finally get back into pony collecting again and though I have been collecting a few G4 ponies here and there, I haven't rescued any G3 or G1 ponies for several months. Then one day I decided to visit the toy shop that had moved and there were lots of ponies that need love!

I did manage to get the two ponies with nail polish cleaned up and it broke my heart about the one tropical pony. I love her mane sooo much and I think with a bit of work, I'm going to turn her into yet another mascot for my city's football club, the Seattle Sounders.

I did get her cleaned up and she's beautiful! I'm undecided if when I finish I will keep her or sell her.
The nail polish took lots of work to get off and I'm wondering what exactly it was because I was able to start scraping it off with my fingernail. I scrubbed them both good with a coarser washrag as well as my nail. All of it has been removed except for slight little traces of colour, but the bodies themselves are smooth.
Oh the little G3 pegasus baby pony looks like her legs have been chewed on by a dog, so I am probably going to make her my baby Autumn Patch, a custom I made last summer.
