Long time no see! I got super lucky on a $30-ish pony lot from Shopgoodwill, and it just arrived a few days ago. I could see five G1s buried amongst a bunch of G3s and G4s in the photo, but since it was basically a grab bag lot, I wasn't sure what to expect. I got quite the surprise when I opened the box to see not just five, but eight G1s!
Here's the G1s I got (these girls were grimy but I forgot to take before pics, so just imagine them caked with dirt and mysterious sticky substances)!
Sweet Suds (with her original ribbon!)
I only have one other Perfume Puff and her mane and tail are a mess, so it was a treat to see such a lovely soft puffy mane and tail! Sweet Suds is pretty much in perfect condition with beautiful symbols. She even had her original ribbon tied in her mane! I think this is the first G1 I've ever gotten with their original ribbon.
Starry Wings
You have no idea how excited I was to pull this girl out of the box. Easily my favorite from this whole lot, and one you couldn't even see in the photos that were provided. She is so minty I can hardly believe it, and her wings are both in perfect condition!
Boysenberry Pie
It seems like Boysenberry is prone to discoloration in general. This is my second Boysenberry and she's got yellow-ish stains all over her body as well. Perhaps from the mane? Hmm. Either way, she's lovely otherwise!
Coco Berry
This girl has been on my wishlist for awhile, and I finally have her! She's in pretty good condition with just a little yellowing.
BBE Baby Half Note
This little one came with all four of her original legwarmers!
Fizzy
This Fizzy is gorgeous, I don't see much of anything wrong with her! Beautiful symbols, and she still has some of the shimmery coating on her eyes. She's certainly an upgrade on my current Fizzy, who has a bit of a frizzy dry hair problem.
Parasol
This Parasol was pretty filthy when she got here, and it took a LOT of scrubbing to get her looking presentable. She does have a marker stain on her NDS foreleg, but I think it adds to her charm! It seems I'm collecting sad Parasols.
Taffy
Yeesh...this poor girl. That flocking is sad, and it looks better than it did when she first got here. Other than the flocking, though, she's pretty lovely! And from what I understand she's a bit harder to find as SS go, so I'm happy.
Repro Confetti
Confetti is one of my favorite ponies, so you'll never see me complain about getting extras of her! One day I might have a Confetti conga, hehe.
I also got...a singular adult pony legwarmer. Well, I suppose I can collect the rest over time!
I haven't actually gotten around to cleaning them up yet, but along with the G1s in this lot I also got:
G3s:
G4s:

All in all, a very nice lot!
