Your last g1 find in "the wild"?

Some nice finds here. 

I found some g1 brushes last week, but the last g1 ponies I found was last month: a really baity Starflash and one of the Dream Beauties (Srar Gleamer, I think; the pink sparkly one.). For $1.50 each, I bought them.

Dream Gleamer I think is the pink sparkly Dream Beauty? That's an nice find though Congrats

The last wild G1 ponies I found were at the toy fair in June, which were the two MOC sea pony babies. I did see a CP Bow Tie there too for £7, which I left behind. Otherwise, nothing...although our local carboot sale no longer runs so I don't get a lot of chances to go look any more.

I found a repro Bluebelle, does that count?

My friend found about 60 G1s at the flea market a couple of years ago. She called me up and said she wasn't sure if they were actual MLP or fakies. I told her to describe one and she said, "a white pegasus with pink hair and candy all over her" OMG Yum Yum! Haha I was so excited to dig through them. She only paid $15 for the whole lot

Oh yeah, all the talk of repro ponies reminds me just a couple months ago I found a MIB reproduction g1 pony set. One of the CP sets.

Set out a bit late for the flea market, I'd have about an hour there when I got there, but got stuck in horrible traffic and there was pretty much no point. I'll go tomorrow maybe.

I saw a really nice SS Magic Star today. Flocking looked great except a bit of scuffing on the bottom of her hooves. I'm not a huge SS fan though so I left her there.

Today I found Sunbeam, Glory, and SS Wind Whistler at a garage sale for $3.

Two weeks ago I found a beautiful dream beauty (Wind Walker?). One of the Pegasus ones, with balloon symbol.

I found a near-mint Skydancer at a Goodwill outlet store! Her only problem was that her whole body was vaguely sticky, but a little scrub cleared that up just fine!

My last?!
MINT Sunbeam, VGC Medley, Starcatcher II, Luau, Sweetie Belle's Gumhouse, two fakies and Glittery Pinkie Pie from a flea market for 5 dollars! Oh and 2003 Winters MIB for 10 dollars on Craigslist! Best find ever!

Barnacle, for $5 at a vintage/antique store. His hair is pretty dry, he's got a slight head/body mismatch and a couple of brown spots, but overall, he's in pretty good shape I could barely believe my luck.

(Oh right - this was a little less than a week ago.)

Snuzzle for 70 cents back in June at goodwill.

I see some random G1s at the flea market from time to time - too bad they're usually priced greater than collector price and in just "ok" condition (otherwise I'd save them all).  There's been no one really rare that I've stumbled across.

I picked up a Bubbles for $5 last time.  $5 is still a bit steep for a flea market price (especially since I already have her), but she just looked so pretty that I couldn't stand to leave her behind.

Yesterday I went to a thrift store and found a bag that contained G1 Magic Message Pony Cuddles, Princess Misty, Baby Surprise, 2 keyper finders, a littlest petshop pink poodle, Loo-kee, a small pvc yellow dog with red/white ribbon I couldn't identify and more random items that I left behind for only $2!

I've had some good luck this year!

[reanna-mator]

I found a battered shell of a Show Stable at a thrift shop. It's in really rough shape but it cost me next to nothing, so I couldn't leave it behind. Still wondering what to do with it.

Found this tray at the flea market today not even 5 minutes into being there.

I pointed to it and asked how much and he said $1. Can't pass it up for that. But now I have 2-3 of them. lol
