So, because my mother denied me Goodwill, she took me to the flea market. I find a stall selling toys from between the 70's and 90's and got super excited, only to find out that all 29 ponies that the stall had possessed had been purchased FIVE minutes before I got there. I was about to turn back when I saw another toy stall. She had two big buckets of ponies which she let me dump on the floor and go through. Unfortunately, about 95% of them were fakies. BUT, I found a G3 Merriweather, G3 Scootaloo and a 25th ann. ed. Windy, and a McD's G3 Minty. They were in deplorable condition and she wanted 3$ for each, which I thought was a bit steep for the condition they were in. But, I was determined to leave with ponies, so I took them and two troll dolls. As soon as I got home, I whipped out the body wash, shampoo, and conditioner and got to work. Almost all the dirt washed right off with minimal amounts of scrubbing, and I had a wig brush handy for the hair. They look awesome now! They tinsel in Merriweather's hair is kinda all over the place, but what can you do? I am so proud of myself. I thought that cleaning them would be boring, meticulous work, but I had a lot of fun. I'm kind of enamored with ponies just that little bit more now!
TL;DR, found ponies, cleaned them, had a great time.
