Mom and I visited the Pec Thing again, both today and yesterday. I managed to find, among other things, the November 1979 issue of the Saturday Evening Post. What's so important about this issue? Well, it has an article inside about Jim Henson and the Muppets. And on the cover is the Muppets' interpretation of Norman Rockwell's famous Thanksgiving picture.
I also found three more ponies to add to my MLP collection, all of them G1's. I found Posey yesterday; she's a bit dirty and her mane and tail have faded some, but other than that she's in relatively good shape. I also saw a Glory and a So-Soft Twilight pegasus, as well as a mystery Baby Pony, but I didn't get them.
When I went back today they weren't there, but I managed to rescue two other G1 MLPs from a toy horse bin at another booth. The first, Cotton Candy, mostly just needs to be cleaned and have her mane tamed a bit. This makes her the fourth Year 2 pony in my collection.
The second find needs a bit more TLC than Cotton Candy does. I found Windsong, one of the Flutter Ponies, in the same bin as Cotton Candy. Her body is in terrific shape (not even a lot of dirt), but someone hacked off her mane at some point, giving her what looks like a crewcut or a very short mohawk. I'd like to have her mane restored, but I'm unsure of whether to try and do it myself or to send her to someone who can do a professional job and not damage her in the process.

since I don't even know what color she has and/or if I happen to have it. It's really not hard, though... of course, I use a rehairing tool, so... ^_^; Yeah. Anyway, figured I'd offer! <3She didn't have her wings, did she? If she did, I'd be really really surprised. ^^

Nope, no wings. I've got three Flutter Ponies now (Windsong included), and none of them have their wings anymore.

http://www.custompony.com has a lot of different nylon hair colors. I've never used it, though-- it's a new product, and I just bought a couple of colors to try out yesterday and they {obviously} aren't here yet. :)
