Agreed. I recently rehaired a hardened Sweet Stuff a couple weeks ago, and I used a hairdryer to soften her neck up enough so I could shove her head back in.

Congratulations on the promotion!

I mostly get mine at flea markets and the occasional Ebay auction. I've even recruited my mom to help me keep an eye out for any that I might miss when we go junking.

Don't feel bad. I was trying to get the head off of a Bluebelle I got at a flea market so I could get an idea of how much rust was in her body, and instead of cutting the factory seal, I was cutting into her neck plug. Thank goodness I realized it before I cut into it any more. It's a good...

I'll vouch for the pillowcase. I once washed and dried a plush Cotton Candy in one, and she came out nice.

Me too. It felt so good seeing them with full manes again.

I still can’t get over how beautiful Sweet Stuff’s hair colors are when blended together in her tail. Pictures really don’t do it much justice. Nothing quite like a head and tail of nice silky shiny hair where a buzzcut used to be.

Three years ago, I picked up a Posey and a Sweet Stuff from a local comic convention. They were both pretty ratty and messy, so I decided to restore them. It took me three years to do it, but they're finally finished. I'll start off by posting a few before pictures. Sadly, I must have forgot...

Okay. They're both done. I'm going to put a post in the main forum of the before and after.

Good news. It took three needles valiantly sacrificing themselves, but I finally got Sweet Stuff rehaired. I think my problem was that the eyes of the needles I was using were too small and thin. The hairdryer worked beautifully for softening her flank enough for me to pull her tail...

Okay. I'm hoping it's okay for me to make two posts back to back, but I thought I'd share how Sweet Stuff's rehairing is going. I finished the purple and dark pink segments of her mane, and I'm hoping to finish the other two segments tomorrow. So far, I haven't had to break out the hairdryer...

That’s fine. I’m going to try a hairdryer and if I need to, I’ll use a needle to enlarge the holes. I’ll report back and let y’all know how it goes.

That's what I'm thinking about doing. Do you think using a hairdryer would hurt the pony?

I know, right? How often is it that you can use one of your collection pieces as an impromptu weapon in a pinch?

I’m finally getting around to restoring the two ponies (Posey and Sweet Stuff) I got at a local convention a couple years ago, and I need some advice. I finished rehairing Posey today, and I'm going to do Sweet Stuff next, but she’s suffered from what I assume to be plasticizer leakage, because...

It's relatively short, but this is my wishlist: G1: My Pretty Pony Wavedancer Masquerade Mimic Dream Castle G3: Kimono Wysteria Piccolo Cheerilee (unicorn)

Here's mine. I just barely made it. https://sta.sh/01rhfjosi5k7

Ooh, I'd love to have that Rosedust shower curtain.

As someone who loves carousel animals, I am so jealous of that SHS.

It's pretty amazing how she was able to beat so many people in securing the voice of Minnie. It was like over 150 other people. I always thought it was so romantic how she and Wayne Allwine got together.
