  • Hello everyone, and welcome to another MLP G1 restoration video :) Today we have a sister project (sister ponies made by human sisters and niece). This was supposed to be one Sparkler pony but turned into a twin project when I messed up part of the restoration and thought I had to replace the poor toy with one of my own collection. Luckily, the damage was fixable. I hope you enjoy! THANK YOU Paola and Kitty for your help!!!

    We enjoyed so much working together repairing our ponies.
    I admire my sister, she is really talented and an excellent person ❤️🤗
    Kitty told me "mamá Im youtuber now" eheheh
    I want to thank you all for the lovely comments and send you a lot of hugs from us!!!! 💕💕💕

    I'm glad you had such good helpers, the ponies turned out great! I like getting to see some mishaps along the way to be honest - it's a good learning opportunity and it's nice to see that these things don't always go smoothly. Still, the fact that everything ended up working out for the best is great too! Thank you for sharing 💖

    Love when people can share hobbies with their family! I think I'll stick to cable tie method for my ponies, I'd be afraid the string would hold moisture and get moldy 😰

  • @francophiIe
    @francophiIe ปีที่แล้ว +60

    Great to see you back, I just started rewatching your older videos the other day and was pleasantly surprised by this one.
    It's really cool that other members of your family are into collecting/restoring as well!

    How cute i loved that the family was involved. Probably one of my favorite videos especially since two ponies in one video.

    Welcome back! I didn’t know how much I missed your videos. They’re so adorable and soothing. Loved the sister ponies ❤

    Sparkler was part of the inspiration for G4 Rarity. Especially her cutie mark.
    Aww I want to see meow onscreen. He says “come on, I’m starving here! This bowl won’t fill itself! Move it servant!”

  • @PredictableEnigma
    @PredictableEnigma ปีที่แล้ว +3

    That's so sweet! Now you will think of your sister whenever you look at Sparkler.
    I had a mistake on my first ever pony restoration. I found a Gusty with good symbols and hair, but she was very yellowed and had some rust beginning. I cleaned the rust and did the UV correctly, covering the hair eyes and symbols with tape. But the tape was not thick enough and some light got to her hair, turning her highlight orange. The eyes are slightly lighter blue too. Oh well. Next time I will use a different tape or tempura paint, and make sure to put paper towel then foil then tape on the hair. Live and learn. I might rehair the highlight someday but it seems difficult.

    i've probably said this before, but thank you so much for adding captions! i am very hearing impaired and not many creators add captions. it really helps and i appreciate it 💚

  • @kattriella1331
    @kattriella1331 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love the ponies with bright, almost neon hair combined with a more muted body color (like this muted blue green). They're just so vibrant and fun.

  • @pkmnsilvy
    @pkmnsilvy ปีที่แล้ว +6

    i love your videos so much they're such big comforts for me. i'm autistic and struggle with depression and i have a large interest in my little pony, so watching these calms me down especially with ur voice overs i think they're one of the best parts :)

  • @imreadydollparts
    @imreadydollparts ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for the idea to use tempura paint to protect the factory paint while in a UV chamber! I'll have to try that.

  • @mokko759
    @mokko759 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Excellent work, Kitty! Making sure the ponies are clean is very important.

  • @Airsaber
    @Airsaber ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Great job, as always! I think that both ponies would look great with dual-tone hair - that hot pink and green look surprisingly good together - but they look great as-is!

    i love the g1 variants! the bright colours are soooo pretty and the alternate poses are really fun. i hope i'll find some variants but it's very difficult to find them where i live - i can barely find regular g1 and even those cost a lot :D nice to see you're back!

  • @carrot7868
    @carrot7868 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm in the process of my first reservation :D
    I decided to restore my old childhood pony toy. It looks kind of like a mix between g1 and g2 - I'm pretty sure it's some off brend toy.
    I thought it would be nightmarish to restore, but turns out it wasn't so hard. Except for the fact that it apparently was rotting.
    I enjoyed doing it a lot more than I thought I will!

    @PredictedCyborg ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I enjoy restoration videos so much because it makes me feel less like I'm alone in caring about damaged objects that could be fixed if you know how. So often people just break stuff in dramatic ways for content and I've never enjoyed it, so seeing content that is the opposite soothes me.
    Also, hooray for family content and bonus catte viewing.

    I have been checking to see if you posted quite often, just incase I missed you. I think last time you sent a video you said you had moved house. I hope this video is a sign that it went well. Some tiny word of advice when sanding, is that using some small amount of water will prevent the tiny dust particulate floating into the air. It will be an easier to manage paste which can be wiped off. I absolutely love your videos. I know you can be a bit hard on yourself sometimes. Here, your perfectionism has led to a lovely pony sisterhood which seems so appropriate. I would love to be able to see my niece and share this kind of thing with her. Im very inspired. Thank you.

    Once you fix up symbols, or repainting the pony, do you do a top coat of anything. Or are the paints are pretty good and tend not to flake/rub off over time?

    • @moyetlicious
      @moyetlicious ปีที่แล้ว

      Peroxide will take the flocking off as it will melt the glue, it's mild soap and water only for the softies

      @RetroGeekCrafts  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To follow on moyetlicious, indeed, soap is safer :)
