Garage Sale Finds - G1s and more!
« on: May 27, 2012, 05:28:34 PM »
In my little corner of Canada, there's a HUGE garage sale every year in one district of my city. This is my first year going that I also collected MLP so I had my fingers crossed. However, since it is a yearly thing, I didn't expect to find anything particularly old... Boy was I wrong! I found some G1s! Most looked really mangy/baity, but I grabbed the best and decided to see how well they would clean up. I also found a couple super long hair G3s who looked like they had dreadlocks, and some really cute fakies.

 After a trip to the pony salon, I was amazed! Dancing Butterflies and Zig Zag were minty, and Forget-me-Not was a totally different colour!

 Sweet Stuff has a lot of cancer, and still needs some cleaning and hair work, but she's my first Twinkle Eye pony and I love her  :lovey: Beachcomber is also in need of a longer spa day for her hair, but her body is perfect!

I managed to undreadlock the G3s, and both washed up nicely as well. SO MUCH HAIR!

I absolutely adore these little fakies. I wish Hasbro used such rich hair colours more often! The blue on the one is absolutely gorgeous!

Supposedly a friend of mine found more ponies for me, so excite!

Beautiful ponies!  Your G1's cleaned up lovely!  Sweet Stuff is prone to cancer something awful.  I have one that honestly looks more like a dalmatian than a pony because she's got so many spots!  How many ponies did you leave behind?  Were they reasonably priced?

Best of luck with what your friend digs up!
