Don't I know it... though I think I'm starting to be convinced to keep the shell and turn it into something unique. :) I'm having fantasies of how I would make the Show Stable look post apocalyptic... airbrush or ashes to make scorch marks for a start? Make it look dirty and old?

This may be partially because the upcoming release of Fallout 4 has me in the mood for that sort of thing. XD

I don't have any suggestions unfortunately aside from what's already been mentioned- but I wanted to say that photo with your cat peeking out is hilarious!

I've seen some really cool customized accessories. It shouldn't be too hard to spruce this one up!

I personally would allow it as kitty territory :P

But if you wish it out of your house, then for speed you wuold be best to offer free + shipping. Shells can be tough things to move on otherwise.

Actually, I think it's his now. :P

So, a little while ago I was at a thrift shop and found the shell of a Show Stable... no accessories, rather yellowed, with a piece broken off the roof and a crack in the wall. I still couldn't force myself to leave it behind! I already have a Show Stable in better condition, so now it's kind of... taking up space. I'm sure that other collectors have had this problem. I don't know if I can bring myself to "release" it back into the thrifting world. I feel like there must be someone who could still make use of it.

I have been meaning to revamp and update my sales page. I would be willing to offer it as a "free, just pay shipping" option, or free with a number of pony purchases. Do you think even that is a viable offer? I wouldn't mind some insight from the community, since it's G1 and I'd like it to go to a good home even if it isn't in good shape.

That is how I ended up with 3.5 show stables :)  And now what to do with em lol
