ok so this week has been "clean out the garage" week at my house. and between the killer heat and the evil mold in the garage itself, it's not been fun at all. but today, today it soooo paid off!
i refound a chunk of my dragon collection; alot of my stuff is actually out there who knows where from i moved out a few years ago, so i haven't seen the stuff in years! but here's what i found today ^^
3 of my McFarlen dragons, my 2 movie Megablock dragons, a Malificent (that roars like Godzilla), my Winged Dragon of Ra, and the little red dragon i got in germany. now i just have to find places to put these...
but the best finds weren't by me but my famliy peoples (ok my sis and dad) when i was cooling down from the heat.
Trickles and Sundance were going to be "garbage ponys" as MB put it; hey were in a box that was going to get tossed, but they were spotted and saved! and they look great after a beach bath. Trickles has nearly no glitter loss, and Sundance is warped, and does have blue crayon (i think) on her NDS, but I've yet to take acetone to her.
The McG2s were found by Gracie, and went in bleach too. But these are mine because they have my initial under their feet :lol: and they cleaned up so wonderfully, and i think are upgrades to the set i have-how weird :lol:
and then the fakies just were cleaned with soap; i have the mommy to the Remco still, but tyhat blue fakie...i've a few in this mold from yardsaling, and they're weird, but cool...anyone know anything about them?
but by far, the bestest find goes to my dad. this is a childhood pony i clearly remember having and figured i would NEVER own again because of how much she's worth. but here i am, holding my original pony, and i am just estatic!
it's the MO fancy pants baby!! her head is discolored from her body, and her symbol has some flaws (factory maybe?) and she's got some weird neck glue, but do i care-NOWAY! this is MY pony! and her hair is so unfaded and i tried to leave the curl intact best i could (tail cut?) when i cleaned her with soap and water. but again, do i care? NOT AT ALL! this is my original childhood pony, and it's just so cool! ^^
so i guess surrfering through hte humidity of death, and g etting covered in grime was worth it in the end. because i got some of my history back ^^
