Oh, no, Veda, all the work you did to restore those lovelies was DEFINITELY worth it - they look fabulous! If I had the space to start on Remcos, I'd be very tempted. *eyes off bursting bookshelves, boxes and full-to-the-brim Starmaid 52 litre containers* Yeah, I'd better not, but they are seriously gorgeous!
Your rehaired one is GORGEOUS, she looks awesome like that!
I wonder if Mainsail would be interested in those babies....?

Oh, good! XD Thank you so much, and I'll ask around to see who needs some Remco babies. BUT GUESS WHAT. Soon I'll have something really worth drooling over! In the meantime, the Hair Pony came today, and I'm very pleased with her. I've never ever had a vintage pony in its packaging--even when I was little, my ponies were all second-hand. Hairy's staying in her packaging and forcing me to find a place in my room exclusively for displaying fakies. It's crazy how messily Lanard marked the hooves! And there's no artwork on the back of the backcard, which is a shame, but I love Hairy.

Now THAT is also worth drooling over - a MOC vintage fakie of any kind is a really awesome aquisition, but one so unique with such a cool name AND appearance (how many MLP-style MLPs or fakies do you find in natural colours? Not all that many) is just amazing. How could you not display her in pride of place? Huge congrats on a seriously awesome fakie! *pokes tongue at Veda* Guess who's a fully fledged fakie collector now?

She IS of a different color, if only in the pony world. XD I'm so proud of her, and I'm quite pleased to be an official fakie collector! I was so proud of Hairy and her cute little plaid outfit that I had to show her to my mom, who doesn't appreciate fakies. The only thing she had to say was, "Why?" Then again, that's about what she said when I started collecting MLPs, so I'm sure she'll come around. And I have even *better* fakies coming in the mail now. I was a busy girl this weekend.
