Wings and Things Official Swap Brag Thread!!

[Shenanigans]

Great box, Reanna!! 

You're right, Shenanigans, that box is so you!  Cupcake wrapping paper for starters, and all the lovely bright pastel colours throughout the box. The Jelly Belly bubbles look super fun!

As cool as the extras are, I have to say I'm astounded by the ponies!  I know how you've been wanting Tira-Mi-Su and Mochanut, and you got a beautiful deflock!!  I've never heard of Windy Wisp, but she's cute, too.  I am most in awe of Bubbleberry (and with her own back card description!) and Blueberry Baskets!  You beat me to it, lol... but I'm so glad you finally have her in your collection!!

 

I knoooow! The box was so me and I am SO spoiled and happy! My sister and I were both "BLUEBERRY BASKETS! " at the same time I thought of you and our quest to get Blueberry Baskets And her flutter wings are so much better than the ones I made They even shimmer like real flutter wings!

Loch: I actually had to go back and look at Star's pics because I was like "I sent a bloop? What's a bloop?" xD They're little eraser things in fun shapes. And yeah, as I was making the box, I kept thinking that I hoped you didn't get jelly lol But, Star also really loves Nessie so I took it upon myself to find some special things for her!

Shenanigans: Wow! Look at that awesome custom! And Blueberry baskets!

Everyone's boxes have been amazing so far!

These boxes are amazing so far!! That's a gorgeous Blueberry Baskets!

I'm just on cloud nine from Shenanigans' happiness!  I'm so glad that you like everything. And don't worry about Blueberry Baskets-- I lucked out on her. The seller had her for a reserve price, and when the reserve wasn't met, I got her since I had the highest bid. ^_^ I was so happy to be able to include her with everyone else in the box.

Oh, and I'm so glad you like Bubbleberry! Working on her made me want to work on some customs for myself once I get some free time!

OMG, that's some amazing luck! THANK YOU for her, she is a very special pony indeed I LOVE that shade of purple in Bubbleberry's hair, it's so beautiful She is the first custom I've ever received! I want to draw a picture of her Thank you for an amazing box

[Buddafly]

[Unicorn_pops]

Reanna ~ Adorable custom! Love her colors

Shennanigans I'm so glad you got such a "you" box!

Shennanigans was my partner and boy did she go all out! This was best swap ever! I had so much fun opening everything and It just made my day!

I got a big ol' box with butterfly and pony stickers covering it and inside was this super pretty iridescent butterfly confetti. I made sure to save it
Here is everything unopened with all the extras laid out:

I love the yarn the colors are so me, it's so pretty! Lot's of cute stickers and great candy. The little Easter eggs *were* full of Starbursts yummy! Giant gummy bears are not as sour as they claim but they are big and tasty and the right gummy texture.    The picture is missing another cute notebook shaped like a cupcake and some sweets themed stickers.
Her card displayed her typical awesome artistic-ness!

Such a cute drawing of Whizzer! I totally have to frame this card 

I started off just pulling out gifts and unwrapping at random but as I looked at was in the box I realized the big square one was just the size of a plastic lunchbox. I could hardly contain myself as unwrapped it.
And it was my childhood lunchbox!! In GORGEOUS condition with its thermos! (and more inside)

I had this lunchbox as a little girl and adored it. I used it until it just gave out. It wasn't until about last year when I got really into collecting ponies that I thought to try finding another one. Turns out it isn't as common as the others you see out there and I've come close to buying several in very less than steller condition. This extra was a complete surprise to me and huge hugs to you Shen for giving me a piece of my childhood again. 

Here was what was inside:

Cute Twilight Sparkle notepad and pen. Awesome little G1 ball capturing games and compact mirror. And a keychain for my collection!

More special artwork featuring Coconut Grove, my favorite flowers, and a cockatiel like my Mr. Feathers

SO MANY!! Extremely excited to get my first wingers! I never realized how small they are! I'm soo glad you included High Flyer Shen, I had decided she was my favorite after drawing an ATC of her. I love all their little buggy symbols. Twilight Pink has nothing wrong enough on her to show when on display so she is just fine and so much prettier in person than in pics  Medley has such pretty glittery symbols and Peppermint Crunch is so nicely colored! (I recently rescued a severely discolored one whom I shall now rehome). Dibbles and Nibbles with brushes and bassinet!! They have such cute little faces!
And the blind bag custom of Coconut Grove

I go out to dinner and I missed all this?!?! Holy amazing brags!  Wow, that Blueberry Baskets....and those gorgeous wingers!!!!  Just wow.

You all have delivered some really amazing boxes! 

[Shenanigans]

Eeee! So glad you loved everything! It was so much fun shopping for you, I had to force myself to stop You can see why I couldn't post a big teaser, I wrapped them in your favorite colors I'm glad the ponies are in good enough condition I was really worried about Twilight Pink! That twins were so cute I was tempted to keep them for myself They have such pretty curly hair! I'm SOOOO happy you love the lunch box! That was what I fought tooth and nail to get for you It also came with that t-shirt (glad it fits and it looks great on you!) and... well, does anyone remember me saying I also got a pony that came with the amazing extra?

THIS is what came with it!

It was an odd assortment of things and from a US seller! I told my sister I would be depressed forever if I didn't win that auction because the lunch box looked in perfect conditon (never seen one so clean!) and NBBE Baby Ribbon is in mint condition. I was a crazy bidding person I danced all over the house when I won it!

I'm so glad you like the BB Coconut Grove It's not painted that great, my first attempt They're SO SMALL, I had to put magnifying glasses over my glasses to paint the eyes and symbol And here's a digital copy of the picture - it didn't print well at all

I'm so, so thrilled you love everything! I was so insanely happy to get that lunch box for you, I was determined to find one, hehe And you're right, they don't come up that often! I found a ton of the Rainbow Curl lunch boxes, but not the Merry Go Round. I really like it too

[NinaMarie]

You were totally amazing finding that lunch box and I'm so glad you got a bonus!
I forgot to mention how much I appreciated the extra little detail of ribbons in some of the ponies' tails. It's a small detail I really loved and just might adopt myself

I'm so glad you're happy and I was ecstatic I could get if for you I wondered if the shape would give it away so I didn't post it in my teaser
You're welcome! I put ribbons in all my ponies' tails except for Wingers and G4s because they're so small and the Wingers wings would kinda be in the way I love me some ponies with ribbons!
