Is this MLP Petite item going to just be impossible to find?

[tulagirl]

For months and months I have been trying to find one set of wheels for the little tea cup train that goes with the UK version of the Petite pony Carousel.  I just simply can't find even a cart with wheels.   Its driving me crazy.  Is this just a really rare item? I mean I can find the whole set but I don't need that as I have the set...I just need the wheels or a spare cart.  Since I have had no luck finding this I wanted to find out why it may be so difficult.  Any thoughts? I mean there are playset parts for sale on the arena and evilbay...but I never seem to find this.  Is there any other place I could look that I have not thought of?  I have tried wanted lists on forums, but to be honest the wanted sections of forums has never really been all that helpful for me on anything...even common stuff. Missing playset items just drives me nutso....I love my stuff to be complete.

Wow really?

I do indeed have some of these wheels...but they're white, not green, I dunno if that helps you.

You could try a "want" link in your siggy with a picture of what you are looking for...I have found that helps sometimes as other members are awesome at pointing you in the right direction of things.

I dont know about this little carriage in particular unfortunately for commonality but I will admit that some of what you think would be easy accessories to find are often the most illusive...it took me 4 years to find a back leg for my Paradise Estate set! It just never seemed to come up...I was so close to simply re buying the whole table several times. The tiny parts are the easiest to loose so that probably contributes to their illusiveness.

I hope you manage to track a set down!

Yea I know what you mean. I have a PA chair with no legs lol...don't know if that will ever be fixed either.  And to date I have had no luck finding a Dream Castle wall I need. Oh joy of collecting joys.

I know lol collectiong its like some kind of self imposed torment

Honestly I would give a shot to the wanted siggy - it may work, it may not but its maybe worth a try with a picture and a requested to help you track the item down.

I might also have a white cart that has white wheels in case you need them. Just need to find my tiny stash (don't blink or you'll miss seeing them... yeah it's that many) of petite bits and pieces.

Update:  I don't have white wheels mine are purple/pink.

Oh man I feel your pain, I need the rope from a G2 play set.  Sigh, I need to take a photo and stick it in my siggie.

Yea I need aqua wheels. White ones just wouldn't look right.  Thank you all so much.  I will try the siggy thing at some point.

oh i know that feeling! i am looking for my childhood pony twisti tails to complete her accessoiries for ages!

[butterflybuttons]

Lol! Those tiny elusive pieces are difficult to track down.

Buy white wheels and paint them aqua? Probably still wouldn't be the same. U.U

Yea I am the kind of collector that can't be happy with painted wheels LOL. I mean I want the right ones..anything else will bug me.  Its madness...really it is. Ha ha
