Poor Whizzer!
« on: March 21, 2016, 12:56:11 PM »
All of you G1 pony collecters out there HELP ME :yikes: So i got this G1 Whizzer and she is preety ruff! She has a lot of problems wich the biggest one is that her head is a darker shade of pink than the body! Her body has its original color but the head is some shades darker! It looks like it has shrinked a tad and the head feels very hard unlike the squishy heads of the other ponies i have! :sad: She also has a lot of marker and here in europe  there is no magic eraser! There are also some spots in the same color as the head! I hope i can make her new again!  :redface:

Unfortunately a lot of what you describe does sound like something there is no fix for. The head/body mismatch does happen with Whizzer (and many ponies of the same colour) - its the plastic breaking down. The colour difference is something you are going to be stuck with - although it will make her pretty special. A fancy bow around her neck will make the colour difference between body and head less noticible.

Where are you in Europe? There are lots of companies making the equivalent of "magic erasers" - most hard ware stores will sell some kind of melamine sponge (perhaps under a different or generic brand name) - if you ask for the product by type rather than brand that may help you track one down. Sun fading is your next best bet for ink marks. Do you have pictures of your Whizzer?
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

  I live in Albania! Yes this far! But in the store there were a brand like them but they removed them because people did not buy them! :enraged: But now that i think of it i will do some of my tricks to kind of "fix" Whizzer! I think ill even post the process! She will be a nice addition to the collection! :lovey:

You should be able to get Magic Eraser (or off brands) on Amazon, and for all I know, they deliver to Albania. Looking forward to the pictures!
Specifically looking for G1 with pen markings similar to this (my initials - W.S.):
