Exciting box of G1s to restore!
« on: February 10, 2014, 04:15:44 PM »
Sooo an artist I follow posted a snapshot of her childhood pony collection and asked for offers, mentioning they were in light to heavily played-with condition with marks, bad manes, etc.

I'll admit I don't know as much about G1 as I wish I did, I've pretty much been looking up names as they're mentioned here and trying to retain the information best I can, so I really had no idea what I was buying. I was afraid someone would snap up the lot before me, so I threw out an offer quick as I could.

Wellll she accepted my offer and I sent payment and now that I don't feel like I was under the gun for time anymore, I have been looking up who these ponies are, and... omgggg this might be a REALLY good lot??? :D

So far I've IDed:
Birthday Pony
Raincurl
Baby Moondancer
Dazzleglow BLUE HEARTS variant
Purple Valentine Twin

I'll update again with my own photos when I have the box here in hand... really hoping I can do a good job restoring these guys, the photos don't look too bad, but of course it's hardly an up-close comprehensive view.

What do you think guys, did I pick a good lot to buy? :D

omg I wanna cry from excitement, I just IDed Crystalline and looked at how much she goes for on eBay! Here’s my updated ID list:

Birthday Pony
Raincurl
Baby Moondancer
Dazzleglow BLUE HEARTS
Purple Valentine Twin
North Dtar
Scrumptious
Shady
Crystalline
Masquerade
Rosedust (? mane looks white in seller photo)
Skydancer
Brilliant Bloom
Little Flitter
Lil Pocket (?)

The only one I can’t ID is the purple adult Earth Pony in the center, with the violet and white or pink mane. The dots on her flank think maybe she was a Precious Pocket pony??

I cant actually see the purple valentine twin in that pic unless you didn't include her in the pic. I think you mean glow winger as i can see her looks like she is missing her wings though.

Still an amazing bundle though big congrats :D

The hair on rosedust is supposed to be a light pink it does fade easily though that's y the sellers photo could b white

Yeah that looks like a precious pocket to me not sure on the name

^.^

Oh, maybe!! I had a hard time IDing that one, I figured it was purple and showing up in the photograph as if it were a dark blue, since I know that can happen with cameras sometimes.

To be clear, I mean the dark blue lookin' baby sized pony to the right of Moondancer.

I guess I'll find out soon! :)

Hm... could the purple pony be Sweet Pocket or her UK counterpart, Singing Pocket??? It's just weird how much darker this one is from the photos I'm seeing... maybe she's really filthy!

I think the Precious Pocket is Sweet Pocket...she normally has a little flower with a bee on a string,, but I could be wrong. She's purple with a white and blue mane. She's really cute! Excellent score on the ponies!
