Catching Up with MLPs


I thought I'd catch up and show most of the ponies I've picked up since I moved here. I think I've shown a few before, so I just grabbed the ones I didn't have pics of. 


I got a great deal on Princess Taffeta, one of my faves from the second set of Princess ponies. She's my most recent arrival. 



These others I picked up cheap a few years ago. 


Princess Primrose




Princess Royal Blue



Princess Sparkle is back home. She's the one I had when I was a kid. 




Princess Starburst


Princess Tiffany





And the completed Bushwoolies. 

Cheery, Hugster, Chumster, Wishful, Eager, and Friendly. 




Caramel Crunch I've had for a bit. 




But I just got Molasses. 




Sunnybunch is my fave Merry-go-round pony. 



Wildflower. I love her colors. 



Springsong. 



Bright Night


Cha Cha


That's it for now! I definitely plan to add more. I've cut back a lot on my buying, but it's easy to pick up a pony here and there. Unless you go for the rares or internationals, they're quite reasonable.

Magic Mixies Mixlings NEON MAGIC CHEAT CODES


No cauldron pic because I was too excited to open them and then my mom took out the trash, including the box with the cauldrons, before I thought about keeping one. Whoops. 

So the Neon Magic series was only sold in Europe, I believe. I never expected to get them, but ended up doing a trade. 

I'm going to put the codes alongside the photos instead of at the bottom.


So basically there are 6 pair in 6 themes. One is brighter, one is darker. 

These two are Enchanters, so their eyes flip. 

JIPS: 4-9

JILLI: 5-0


These two are Morphlings with the long necks. 

I'd like to note that Azak is shown as green in the checklist. He is not. That was disappointing. He's cute but would have been cuter in lime green.

AZAK: 5-2

ANNY: 5-2

Anny is possibly my favorite from the set. 


These are Vanishers, though I haven't tested them. 

I actually like the brighter one, Lixon, better here. Lorryn is shown as much darker on the checklist, but she's a pretty vivid neon blue. 

LIXON: 5-3

LORRYN: 5-4


Charmlings

I love both of these, but I prefer Bohip just a smidge. 

BOHIP: 5-5

BONNIE: 5-6


These are Spell Gazers, the ones where you can flip their faces.

I love the dark one, Hapazu. He's the darkest of all the mixlings across every series. He's my other one that's a possible favorite. Either him or Anny. Or hell, let's just say both. 

HIKTAK: 5-7

HAPAZU: 5-8


And finally, the Castlings.

FLOOSH: 5-9

FLUZZY: 6-0

These may not even be in stores anymore, but I wanted to post the codes just in case they end up helping someone.

Vintage Buys

I've been pretty bored with current playline. I'm waiting to find Jem someday and for TLS to give us the rest of Rainbow Brite and SSC. I'm looking forward to Fearbook Abbey and Venus, as well as Nefera (though she's a bit too G1 for me), but other MH hasn't caught my eye. 

So I've been dipping into my vintage want lists and buying up some pieces from those. 

First up, Boysenberry Pie from the Sweetberry ponies MLP line. 




I also picked up So Soft Twist. I've always loved Twist, though in my original collecting days, I held out for the Brazilian one. Wish I still had her! But I love this one. Her fur is super soft. 



Eager and Cherry complete my set of Bushwoolies, which I never took a picture of. I'll have to do that before I put Cheery on the shelf. 

I gave these guys a scrub, so they look a little wet still. Poor Cheery has water inside him that I need to dry out before he goes on the shelf. 





I can't remember if I posted these here or only in Insta, but I got Seaflower and Skippity Doo from the local toy store months ago. 


I have more ponies coming that I'll add once they arrive. I don't think I ever photographed the other ones I've bought in the past handful of years either. 

I also grabbed Flutterbug from Glo Friends. 

And just realized there are no photos of any of my Glo Friends. 

So here's Flutter with Nuttybug and Bashfulbug. 

Nutty has been beside my bed for decades. Wherever my alarm clock sits (or these days, my phone), that's where Nutty is. Bashful has been with him for years, though not as long as he's been in that place. 

I have a couple others somewhere that I'll have to locate. 

But yeah, bored with playline? Turn to vintage. I'm not spending big bucks on anything (yet), just trying to cross some of the lower-priced items off my want list. 






Ooh! I almost forgot to add this! I got these a week or so ago. Soma fakies on the card!!! My favorite fakies of all time.

REVIEW: Snughouls Series 2!


Way back in September 2023, I posted about my first Care Weres. Since then, the brand has renamed itself Snughouls, though I'll still keep both tags to make sure the posts all stay together in a search. 

The Series 2 campaign was ginormous with a ton of new characters. There were some new weres, though I didn't get any, and a new bat character, though I didn't get one of those either. (I did in the following campaign, so he'll probably be the next to arrive.) There were beelzebears, mothmen and wolpertingers. All of them are adorable, so choosing was difficult, but choose I had to because these guys are huge and not cheap. 


 
This is Hellfire Beelzebear. He was my first choice. 

I love his horns, the cloven hooves, the red ear lining, the pretty eyes, and his soft gray fur. 



And also the little wings and the big floofy tail! 


I love the entire Beelzebear design, but Hellfire was the ultimate color combo for me, so he's my only one. 



Moonlight Mothman was the first of three mothmen designs. 


The pictures don't do his colors justice. 


Love the toes!



Super cute face. 




And the wings. 




Grimshroud represents the ever popular death's head moth. 


Their little antenna are bendable. 


I love the colors on him. He's a bashful character in my mind. 



Wings. 




Cutie face!




Then there's Luna Mothman. 

I fell head over heels for Luna's original design, which used a much darker pink with a pink neck ruff and a moon-themed belly badge. I was disappointed when the design was changed and decided not to choose her anymore. 



Lovely wings. 


I had originally backed the Krampus Care Were but didn't end up liking his final design. I kept coming back to Luna and decided to swap him for her. 





And now I'm glad I did. I think she might be my favorite of the three, but I'm not positive. I do love Grimmy a lot. 




All three mothmen!



And finally, Wispy Winds Wolpertinger. I call her Autumn in my head. 

The wolpertinger is a German cryptid. They're basically composite animals that can vary in components. This one is basically a winged, fanged, antlered rabbit. 



Adorable wings!

And that li'l tail!




I love her colors. She's the most cuddly of the five, too. I think maybe she's a little less tightly-stuffed or something. 


I adore all five of these and I'm so happy they're finally home. 



I do want to note my immense surprise when this is what I pulled out of the hub this morning. The package came FedEx, though I didn't receive an out for delivery notice until after it was delivered. I never actually got a delivery message from them. I had no idea it was in the hub, being that I figured it would be in a giant box. Nope. This is like the world's biggest plastic mailer. 

Honestly, not thrilled about it. These aren't cheap and they should have been handled with way more care. All my extras were just tossed loose in the bottom of the bag. I'm tempted to let the creator know this is how his shipping partner is mailing things, but people have been rude to him about wait times, so I'm not saying anything. Yet. I'm not mad about it, as they arrived safely, but this is just asking for problems.

FOR SALE: Lucky Loong


I bought a case of these guys and ended up with 6 doubles. 

If anyone wants to swap, I'd love more I don't have. 

But I'll also sell for $4 each. I'd do $20 for the lot of 6. (Shipping extra.)





Each one is different except the two pink on the right. Those two are the same.

NEWS: Disney ILY


I saw the new ILYs in Target, too. 



Here's the Bambi one. 




Bo Peep. 





Back of the box. 




And then Minnie. 




And the back of her box. 


I didn't buy any. ILY is getting a little too repetitive. The dolls are pretty but I feel like I own versions of all these already and they're not exactly repping my favorite characters. I wish they'd do more like the NBC girl! She's my fave. (Obviously.)
