I just love to see this, even though I never grey with the first 2 genetations of the ponies, i grew with 3, 3.5, 4, and 4.5 (i'm 17). And learning and watching people loving and caring do much about the ponies, make me happy
That's really nice to hear 😊 This G1 type is quite rare, the original ones were made in Japan and for s very short period of time. I think they look adorable 😍 Thank you so much for watching and for your message!
Have you heard? The tale of the Weavers? Able to turn even the most abused of toys onto beautiful works of art! They have pencils that can draw into the skies, clays that can create wings or extra limbs, paints with colors unimaginable to turn us into living rainbows if they wanted! Unbelievable, right? That's what I thought too, until one day, one found ME! I was nothing anyone really sought after, a "bootleg" of something better, but they still chose me! They took me to their work space, cleaning me with all these lovely smelling soaps to take off grime and odd spots on me, then they carefully took me apart and took away my hair! It was kinda scary, but they were so fast! Before I knew it, they gave me beautiful locks that, I personally, thought was much softer than my brittle original, and painted my fading patterns into a brighter, new coat! Now, you may be wondering, "did they give you a new design?" "Did they turn you into something more?" and at first... I thought they were going to. After all, I wasnt valuable, or even remotely as cute as other toys, but... when I saw myself when they were done, I couldnt be more shocked, for there I stood looking like... myself. Myself, but... loved. I looked like a real toy, one that you could find om the shelves instead of seedy booths at the mall or on odd websites, a toy a child could play for years and use to look back on times after. So yes, in a way the Weaver made me into their work of art. They made me into how I've always wanted to be! Filled with love!
Some people actually collect fake ponies only! I was quite surprised too, but after you see all the pretty variety they grow on you 😊😊 This fakie, though, looks almost the same as the Japanese Takara ponies. Which are impossible to find and afford, reason why even the bootlegs are valuable today!
I didn't know about the Bratz Ponies! Thank you for the tip. I like their shapes -- but the eyes not so much. I think I'm just too used to the round ones :P
Thank you!! It's not that easy to find ponies in bad condition (most people just throw them away :() so I'l beginning to focus more on customs. There's one coming soon!
I don't know either! I've never seen one in real life. It is definitely a weird choice, I guess it's easier to do it that way but it felt strange to see it when I first had to rehair it!
It was a lucky eBay find! The first one I'd seen in months. I recommend you create an alert for it, although I imagine a lot of people won't know their name and probably just list it as "pony" of some sort :P
I know I'm super duper late to comment but... after watching many of your videos I went on Reddit and Ebay to find my own childhood Fakie (in my case, a Mini Pony Luv from Tara Toys that I got for Christmas in 2003 when I was 6, although apparently the Pony Luv brand goes back to the 80's so I have no idea how old it really is/was) to try and restore. She's missing one accessory, but I think I can remake it, or something close to it. Nostalgia makes you do some crazy things sometimes hahaha!
I just found your channel and I am so sad it has taken me this long to find it 😭! You do amazing work & so many of your videos have brought back memories I have thought were long gone ❤️. I was so in love with my little ponies (I have long forgotten all their names 😂) and since I had older cousins and an older sister I had so many of the G1 ponies... I wish I would have kept them 💔. Watching your videos have made me want to take up collecting them as they were truly my only favorite toy.
Hola! Ayer acabé de construir mi propia cámara UV, y la estoy usando para blanquear un starshine, pero quería preguntarte algo, sé que tú usas tiras LED de UV, en mi caso es un florescente de luz UV, pero noto que se calienta mucho la caja por dentro, a tí también te pasa?
Qué bueno que hiciste tu cámara UV! Es normal que la temperatura sea un poco más alta que ambiente, pero por las dudas usa la caja sobre una superficie no inflamable. Yo por ejemplo no me animé a ponerla sobre la alfombra y la uso en una parte del piso que tiene cerámicos. La ficha USB de mi primera caja se rompió a los 2 meses, se daño una parte interna. Pero fue más la ficha barata que las luces en sí. Te aconsejaría no dejarlas prendidas a la noche si podés evitarlo, por las dudas.
I don't actually own any yet! They are quite difficult to find in "bad" condition (for restoring). I don't even want to think people might be throwing the damaged ones away :0
If I'm not mistaken, Takara fakies are almost as sought after as real Takaras. Great work!
They might be! They are also like 1% of the price of a real Takara :/
It’s really cool to see a japanese MLP spinoff.
They are super cute. This is one of the babies, the grownups are even cuter because they have articulations.
@@RetroGeekCrafts cool
oh my god, fake or not, I NEED one!! SO CUTE! I swear your channel makes me love these pony dolls so much.
These ponies are absolutely adorable. A bit difficult to find but very unique looking! Some day I hope to have an original one :)
ahhh i JUST learned about the takara ponies! I have created within myself an extreme urge to 3D model a fakie of the original pose
Foreshadowing
@@NaruEee when i said i was working on it for six months i wasnt lying lol
SHES SO DARN CUTE
She is!! Now I want all the colors 😊😊
the little bow just made it perfect, its so cuteeeeee 😭
Thank you 😊😊

This is so beautiful! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing it 😊🥰🥰🥰
@@RetroGeekCrafts I'm glad you liked it! I was binging your videos and I just NEEDED to write it down
I love this little pony 🐴❤
That's a fakie Takara, it's adorable. I had some as a kid :)
IT IS!! 😊😊
Your channel is my new late night obsession
Hehehe thank you 😊 I think!
@@RetroGeekCrafts Certainly, I love it!!!
omg, it's like a cute little pink Eeyore!
Haha nice ☺️☺️
I've never heard of these! So cute! Reminds me of Hello Kitty designs.
I think she would look super cute with short bangs!
True!! If I ever find another one I will try it 😊😊
I've been binge watching your videos and I LOVE it.
It also makes me want to find out what kind of two ponies I got in my closet hidden away hah
Thank you so much!! I hope you can find some treasures in your closet!! ☺️☺️
Great job!! 👏 I have one of them and after watching your video I think I'm going to restore it.😊
Yay!! You should definitely give it a try! 😊😊
I didn’t know a fake pony was a thing I enjoyed learning something new.
Some people actually collect fake ponies only! I was quite surprised too, but after you see all the pretty variety they grow on you 😊😊 This fakie, though, looks almost the same as the Japanese Takara ponies. Which are impossible to find and afford, reason why even the bootlegs are valuable today!
Omgosh!!!!! You brought life back to this toy
Thank you 😊😊 I wish I had more of these ponies, they are so adorable!
I have same 2 ponies and one grey with yellow hairs. Also want to rehair. 😊
That's awesome! They are quite difficult to find. I've only seen one for sale here in the last month. Good luck with your rehair :)
So cuteee! I love it! Nice job
Great video, thanks for sharing
Thank you for watching :)
Kinda resembles the Bratz Poniez! Bravo! 👏 👏
I didn't know about the Bratz Ponies! Thank you for the tip. I like their shapes -- but the eyes not so much. I think I'm just too used to the round ones :P
Amazing work as always!!
Thank you!! :)
Que tierna quedo la pony excelente trabajo
Muchas gracias :) :)
these are so cute omg
They are, I wish I had more 😁
Your videos are wonderful!
I hope you get more subscribers!
Thank you!! It's not that easy to find ponies in bad condition (most people just throw them away :() so I'l beginning to focus more on customs. There's one coming soon!
It's adorable
☺️☺️
Do the original Takara ponies have rooted tails? A lot of fakies I come across have the rooted tail. It's such a strange design choice lol
I don't know either! I've never seen one in real life. It is definitely a weird choice, I guess it's easier to do it that way but it felt strange to see it when I first had to rehair it!
@@RetroGeekCrafts some of the fakie ponies i own do that same thing, it always just weirded me out!
*googles takara mlp figures * okay that is a pretty damn good fake, closer then a lot of the other fakes
Haha yes! And even the fakies can go for some considerable money. I love the shape 😊
Otro trabajo precioso!
Muchas gracias!!!
So cute!!!
Thanks!
Where did you find it? I’ve been looking everywhere to find a fake one!
It was a lucky eBay find! The first one I'd seen in months. I recommend you create an alert for it, although I imagine a lot of people won't know their name and probably just list it as "pony" of some sort :P
There are two for sale right now in the FB group "Takara 💖 Fakie Love 🦄"!!!
Omg! It's so cute!
I love these Takaras, I'm always looking for more but they rarely come up!

👍👍👍👍

The music is so funny to me
I used to pick some... interesting music :P Now I use almost only lo-fi, which is more relaxing 😊
