I received another lot today, this time from eBay! This lot was $9 w/free shipping, and everyone cleaned up quite nicely 
Here is everything altogether, just pulled out of the box I decided to do a before/after photo session with Whizzer so you could see how nicely she cleaned up!
Poor Whizzer was rather filthy! She had lots of surface dirt and marks, and to top it off, a young artist had apparently decided her wings would look better painted white.
Thankfully, with a nice spa-day and scrubbing, she was nearly good as new. Her only flaw now is the little bit of frizz at the end of her tail.
Next we have the two G3s included in the lot:
Crystal Lake! This gorgeous gal was one that never really stood out to me, but now that I have her in-hand, she's actually quite lovely. I adore her gold and pink hair!
And yet another StarSong. I swear, I probably have a good half-dozen of her now haha!
There were also two G3.5s:
Rainbow Dash
Cheerilee
And now onto the G4s!
Twilight Sparkle (her hair is extremely nice)
Crystal Motion Applejack
And the blind bags:
Wave 8 Gardenia Glow
Wave 8 Comet Tail
Wave 8 Flower Wishes
Wave 8 Pinkie Pie
Wave 8 Lotus Blossom
Wave 1 Fizzy Pop
Wave 10 Gilda
Wave ? Pinkie Pie
Wave 4 Pinkie Pie
Wave 8 Rainbow Dash
Wave 8 Granny Smith
There were also some random bits and bobs included. It looks like a whistle, a kaleidoscope, and some sort of ponywear I have yet to identify:
In addition to that lot, I also have a few recent store buys to share! First off, my local Five Below recently got some new backstock in, and guess who they had...
Pretzel ;A; I have wanted her for so long but our distribution was all over the place when this wave was supposed to be out in stores so I was never able to find her. But here she is!! I am stoked to finally have her.
They also had this Cherry Berry. She has a rather interesting factory flaw which can't really be seen well unless you see her in person, but she's actually got two spots on her tail where the the hair is melted. Probably from getting grabbed wrong by one of the machines in the factory where she was made. At least, that's my theory. She's still lovely though!
I also found this Trixie at a Love's on the way to a doctor's appointment! I love her expression hehe.
And lastly, our Wal-mart stores have finally gotten in the new Pony Life stock. I will admit I was initially not thrilled for these but they've sort of won me over. We do have a few of the brushables but not Potion Nova or Trixie, who are really the only two I'm looking for atm. However...they did have the new blind bottles! So I took a quick peek at their codes so I could grab Potion Nova and Cha Cha!
Potion Nova! Those stars on her symbol are so tiny omg
Cha Cha!
Now I saw a couple people complaining about how the bags were hard to rip so they didn't have a choice but to dissolve them in water. However, I personally barely had to touch them and they easily ripped open along the perforations (I did this instead of dissolving to avoid anything staining the figurines! I just didn't want to risk it, so I dissolved the bags after I got them out >u<).
Anywho, I'm excited for when the Potion Nova and Trixie brushables show up, as I'll definitely be getting them!
