Tell me about Auriken Bluebelle *update with pics*
« on: September 30, 2013, 07:18:11 PM »
I bought one on ebay, and I love her! She looks great, only minor scuffs and some fading to her mane vs. her tail color (it looks almost a light lilac vs her darker purple tail)...

This is only my second Nirvana, my first being a Italian Lickety Split, so I am curious about any tidbits of info on her :)

I will post a pic of her when she is dry from her Spa day!

Auriken Bluebelle was one of my first Mexican ponies...she is absolutely lovely and I love her little unstamped elephant feet :lol: Did you open her up to check her insides at all?

Nope not yet, her head is turning though, so not a problem to do...I am guessing her head is not supposed to turn though :)

All of the Mexicans I've purchased so far have heads that turn...tey're all Aurikens, though...not sure about the Lili Ledy's...I actually just bought a LL Minty, so I'm really looking forward to seeing the difference between the two comany's products...I love doing stuff like that.
Apparently there was someone in Mex who was switching heads and doctoring ponies and they sold a LOT of ponies. I think this person put a bit of a sour taste in people's mouths so people haven't been buying them the way they used to, so prices have gone down. I'm kind of glad, though because it makes them much more attainable for me!

Likewise :) As far as I can tell, she looks like the head looks right, I can take it off to make sure the hair color matches, as the hair inside the pony should be correct...make sure it is not Blossom's head huh ;)

I noticed the notches like on the US g1s as if it is supposed to be glued, but I have no idea :)

When you open her you may see te tail with a funk washer and the middle loop of the tailheld togather with string...that's normal, though it does look eird and like it was done by someone who was new to rehairg tail.

The Mexican ponies all have loose heads :)  the hair mismatch is not uncommon. It's just that different batches of hair were used (one for the mane and another for the tail) and one has faded faster than the other :)

Updated the original post with pics

She looks pretty good I think, her insides were really clean too. I think it is really interesting to look at. Her symbols are different on each side and her two eyes are different sizes which I read is normal. Still really cute....:)
