I just want to show you my latest and biggest wild find so far. I went to a charity shop that is relatively far from me, but I had enough time yesterday. My original intention was hunting for a certain book for my daughter and look for ponies of course. Couldn't find the book but found a 1990 release Show Stable with German sticker (Pony-Haus)! Plus, the shopkeeper just pulled out the new arrival stuff and put the price tags, so I arrived on time! I immediately grabbed the G1 ponies and 2 fakies and the stable accessories.:ponylove: The ballerina fakie is just cute, and the other one, the "Greek fakie" has fading pink hair, and the material appears to be same or very similar to the MLP fading pink hair.
It was my biggest find in the wild, last time I found a G1 pony in charity shop was more than a year ago. And it seems all the ponies and the stable are very good condition, as carefully played.

And today I added 2 other fakies as well: flocked baby and a fakie of Sunshine pony.

I think Lemon Drop (China) came with this Pony-Haus, and the owner put a Baby Cotton Candy sticker on the door. Baby Cotton Candy was also included here, and her mane and tail is still pink.
It turned out that almost all accessories are here, only a few are missing.

I believe Baby Cotton Candy, Baby Starburst and Beach Ball have factory curls. I cleaned up the ponies and the stable, except these three because I don't want to ruin the curls. I checked the MLP preservation page but can you give me more advice how to clean the hair of these three?

Sweet fakies :O
 
The playsets are still out there! The color on that is great, too. There doesn't appear to be any yellowing?

I'd clean and recurl the babies to mimic their factory curl style. I haven't washed my own Beach Ball's hair. That color changing hair gets frizzy easily.

Did you get a chance to see if the white still changes color?

Thanks everyone! :winkpony:

There is a little yellowing, because inside and outside the roof and the floor has difference. But not so much! I'll add photos later.
I'll try tho wash the babies, at first with cold water. And yes, Beach Ball's color changing works very well, I was so happy to have her, because I already have one with cut hair. I'll add pic later, because today will be a sunny day.:beachball:

Edit:
Added pictures of Beach Ball and the yellowing on the stable.20230907_143107.jpg20230907_143117.jpg20230907_143143.jpg20230907_143431.jpg20230907_143448.jpg20230907_143505.jpg
