How valuable is Baby Stockings (aka the Rice Krispies MO)
« on: December 01, 2015, 06:52:14 PM »
I know MOs are usually worth more, but this one seems to be pretty common and low-priced.  I have one with some flaws that I was thinking of customizing, but I figured I should check first.  :good:

So, what say you, good pony folk?

She's very common - honestly if you have one with significant unfixable flaws, it's probably better off as a custom.

I wouldn't say they are unfixable.  I'm not into Christmas ponies, though, so if she wouldn't sell for much, I'd rather turn her into another pony.  I rather like the idea that I have for her, too.  :good:

Tis' your pony, to do with as you wish - seriously doubt anyone's going to come bust down your door with torches and pitchforks even if you do end up using a nice Kellog's baby pony.  She's no Rapunzel.  :awake:  There's a reason I left her off the 'please consider restoration before customization' list of rare ponies for the Wiki.

Uhh...not very. She's pretty common and my daughter got her pretty cheap.

All righty.  That's about what I figured, but I just wanted to be sure.  :good:

She's my most common custom victim. PLUS I have I think 5 of her MIP. Have at her! We have a joke around these parts that she's the obligatory pony in any G1 lot that you get...

She is much harder to find out of the US of course :) As long as you customise her with the knowledge you are always running the risk of devaluing, then I completely say "your pony, your call" :) Have fun!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

I think of ponies as a non-renewable resource (even the ones we see pop up more often than others - we'll run out of them eventually; if they all get customized under the thought "oh well there's loads of them out there!" they're going to end up being more scarce. Because of this, it always makes me sad to see G1 ponies being altered, but ultimately it's your call what you do with your own ponies. If it were me, though, I'd probably try to get my hands on one of those fakie G1 babies for customization instead of a real G1.

........I actually don't have one of her. Never seen one in the wild, even back when finding ponies at Value Village was easy. Maybe they weren't part of Kellogg's give-aways in my part of Canada?
