Oh MY! really? Have we really come to this - selling pony parts?!!

On the one hand I got a chuckle... gotta hand it to whoever is so innovative.

And of course I have pony-spa'd, rehaired, repaired and customized these toys so I get the sometimes funny position I've been in to explain why there is "pony soup" on the stove (boiling water and oxy-clean bath to get rid of mold) let alone some of the "in progress" state of some of the customs I've done ("they have to be broken first before they can be beautiful").

But on the other hand, I just... I dunno - really = selling just heads and tails?? Separately?

Is it just me, or does anyone else wonder what those toys are screaming as they have their pictures taken?

[mul-ta]

I wonder what happened to the bodies.

[maycrestmom]

yah I'm halfway tempted to message the seller and ask that - cannot imagine that their bodies all just happened to be destroyed - for six ponies??  I just haven't decided exactly how to translate my question without seeming funny on some level - "can you tell me if you also have bodies to sell?" "Do you also have bodies for these ponies?"

yeah...

[TinyShinyUnique]

..I'm tempted to message the seller asking if they have the bodies: "you know I have been looking for a decent Italian Pinwheel body for a while now..."

I can kind of understand just needing a head.  My dog decided that one of my ponies' heads would be a nice chew toy.  >.<  The body is in great condition though, so I kept it and am hoping to find a replacement head.  It does make me wonder though if the seller isn't just removing the heads to sell both the body and heads separately.  That I don't agree with.

[maycrestmom]

oh dear - a chew toy = yep! that would be a perfect reason to give a pony body a new head :-)

hmmm... now I am wondering what kind of pets this seller may have that so many bodies are missing? 

On the one hand, I get that to that seller those "nirvana" may be just bait to them... but man, that is hard to see international ponies all "chopped" up and on the block

[hathorcat]

LOL how odd!

However that being said, it is always possible to have spare heads/spare bodies depending perhaps on the condition of the rest of the pony or even if someone is switching heads/bodies to get a perfect pony perhaps?

[maycrestmom]

yah I know I had put out a request if anyone had had a lighter body venne tootsie as I liked her darkened body but her head was lighter (as it was closer to intended color) and the mis-match got to me after awhile.  So I can understand sometimes doing a frankenpony switch like for major haircuts and such... still since I found this stumbling on the evilbay I just have to wonder if there is really a demand beyond the boards for pony parts.

Again, I get the occasional tail swap - been there done that to replace a butchered one on a common US MLP... but poor Mexican starflower's head is just hanging out there for sale :-/ what can I say?  maybe someone here can rescue those poor heads (so long as its only a euro)?

Well.... I guess if you really want some "unconventional" Christmas ornament ideas, this guy's got you covered!

[hathorcat]

Sorry looks like its been relisted so the link had to go.

[moonflower]

How odd, I wonder what happened to the bodies!
At least she did not throw the heads away.

[maycrestmom]

oh whoops my bad ... sorry about dealing with an active link    ebay.de  using "Köpfe Custom Lot" if you are curious to see

hah = hadn't thought of that - Christmas ornaments  now that would be a funny tree  = full of pony heads!  I can just hear the conversations (so... you see "The Godfather" recently?)

[hathorcat]

Not your fault it looks like it got relisted

[Artemesia's Garden]

Eeew!
