My Little Pony Ribbons - ID question?
« on: February 07, 2014, 11:47:25 AM »
Hey accessories gurus. I know how difficult identifying ribbons via photograph can be...  but this one might be simpler than I think.

I got a lot with a whole bunch of original MLP ribbons in them and also, a random assortment of "other" ribbons. Now... most of them I just assumed are not MLP, but before I start using them on my sale ponies for decorations in their hair, I wanted to double check as I know some ponies have... different types of ribbons.

Specifically I was thinking about My Pretty Pony and also the Brush 'n Grow ponies - they have larger, thicker ribbons than normal right?

Still, I believe these are just, random ribbons... but, please take a look:

The yellow ribbon the bottom is a known, confirmed original MLP ribbon from a pony I got with all their original accessories. It matches all other pony ribbons I have in texture and approx. length.
Now the other ribbons are bigger, as you can see. Some are shinier. Some are matte.

Do any of these ribbons above the yellow scream MLP to any of you?

Thanks!

The red one looks too vibrant in colour and the dark blue one is completely wrong in length.

The light blue one does look almost as though it belongs to Curly Locks - however the colour looks perhaps a little too bright but I am guessing that could be the camera and computer monitor; it also looks a little short as it should be a touch shy of 13inches in comparison to the standard MLP ribbon at 9inches.

So unfortunately I think they are probably all from different sources other than MLP...unless that light blue one just appears wrong in the photo re shade and length.

i agree that the light blue/teal looking one could be a Brush N Grow ribbon, but the others I don't think are MLP. I'm pretty sure MLP didn't make a thick red one...

I'm thinking Hathorcat would know if the red one was from My Pretty Pony.  I don't know much about the MPP ribbons--they were longer, wider, and I believe one was red (for the brown one).  But I *think* the red MPP ribbon is of thinner material than one you have there.
Looking for CF Minty, excellent condition! (and maybe Snuzzle and Blue Belle)

Yes you are right - its almost "cheaper"...does that make sense? Its also longer :)

Great! Thanks guys, I pretty much figured these are not MLP - but the blue one, I can't tell how it's showing up on your screens but it's almost the same color as Atomic Turquoise hair, so it's very bright. If anything maybe I'll hang onto that one just in my "randoms bag" and use the others for pony decorations!

I really appreciate it! :biggrin: You guys rock my :socks:

Edit to add: I did want to mention I think the aqua/blue thick ribbon has been cut on one end, one end is straight the other is angled... probably because it's just a random ribbon from a spool, lol! :lol:
