1983 My Little Pony Gusty Vintage Toy Restoration, Cleaning & Repaint MLP G1 Hasbro Nirvana 1980s

- This My Little Pony Gusty had great hair! The body, however, needed a little care. I cleaned it with soap, acetone and hydrogen peroxide, untangled the hair, and retouched the symbols. For the cutie marks, I used a simple glitter glue and matte protection on top. I also added some new nylon hair because it looked like the pony had lots some strands.
NOTE: This is the first time I speak on a restoration video! Do you prefer it to be only music? Would you like me to explain the steps with voice-over too?

I like the talking at the beginning, but for the actual restoration I prefer the text on screen. I have very mild auditory processing issues and have trouble understanding people if I can't see them talk, so having the text on screen helps me understand what's going on.
That's good to know, thank you for letting me know! I think some people find the music more relaxing. I'm planning on doing a special series of tutorial-like videos with instructions, and maybe limit the voice to intros once in a while - explaining very shortly, for example, the story of certain toys. One thing I can definitely do (I missed the chance for this one!) is add english text on the video, like subtitles but ones you don't have to turn on (I always do subtitles in Spanish). I will actually add English for this one, that's something I can do!
I'm dyslexic so I cant cope too much writing that only on screen for too short of time
I prefer yhe talking. If you need text you can put subtitles in english
Yes I also have problems understanding some accents! But thanks for saying the info at the beginning :) gusty is one of my favorites and I’ve only seen our us version! Would it be possible to send you a pony? I have a moon dancer I got on eBay almost 20 years ago. Her hair is mostly fine, it’s just her mark that bothers me! I tried to fix it myself then (I was only 15) with nail polish and it’s been a bit sticky since then! I was afraid to try to remove it cause I didn’t want to ruin her hip.
@@lennies_mindful_life Would it help if I make the text stay longer? How much longer do you think would be better? Double? It's quite easy to do so I'll be happy to try for the next video!
Perfect pony to show off in the in-between of spring and autumn, design wise. And the retrobriting did wonders on her
I think the hair colour with the white body is great! Thank you for watching 😊
The RetroGeek speaks! I don't know why I'm so excited about that, but I am! I love these videos so much!
Hahaha this made me chuckle 😊😊 I'm glad it wasn't too traumatic xD thank you so much for watching!
gah! i didnt expect to hear your voice, thats a suprise for sure, but a very welcome one!! :D
Thanks! 😄 I had to give it a try, it's just a few seconds. If the video does terribly we're back to 100% music :P
being an 80s kid, seeing these restored brings me such joy. i had most of them. i never ever cut their hair. i have no idea why some kids cut the hair on their toys, barbies etc. that being said. when my niece was born, i gave her some and she destroyed them. my heart broke.
Ohhh that's great that you were careful with them. I can't remember why I cut mine's mane, it sounds like an awful idea today but I gave a pony to my niece and she did the same! I hope yours can still value and care for them when she grows up! ♥️
it's so easy to see how much love, care and attention goes into every single one to make sure these ponies are looking their very best again! :D It always makes me happy to see another video.
You are so kind, thank you 😊😊
I love the talking at the beginning of the video! I think this format exactly is perfect, a little personal and fun but still relaxing. I have a question, where do you buy your pony hair from? Dollyhair is out of the specific shade I need for a Baby Stockings and I seem to remember you mentioning other sources in another video?
Thank you!! 😊 I buy my hair from different places but it's usually Doll Hair Emporium (UK) or Shimmer Locks (US). When I can't find the shade, I try Amazon. Hope it helps!
You 61 iou
This pony was in shockingly good shape compared to a lot of them her age. Most of them from this era have VERY heavy wear and tear, usually missing hair and covered in scuffs. The fact that this one survived with only what I would call standard play wear (mildly fizzed hair, minor paint loss, a few scuffs and stains) means this pony was either dearly loved, or not loved and barely played with. I hope it was the former, but at least now she'll definitely be loved in her new home, with all her new pony friends.
Yes, I couldn't believe it when I saw her. I got her from the local eBay (Mercado Libre) for a fraction of the collector's price. I had my doubts whether to upload this video because there really wasn't much to do, but I am 100% in love with that hair and I had to show it off :P I'm not usually super attached to my belongings but they'll have to pry this pony from my cold hands xD
I love watching you even though I never really played with mlp I just find it very relaxing ❤️
I'm really glad you enjoyed the video 😊 It's hard not to like these ponies, they have such cute faces!
Wow, you got such a fantastic calming voice! Wouldnt mind hearing it more often! =D
Wow, thank you! That's unexpected 😊
Very cute restoration!! It was such a nice surprise to hear your voice :3 I hope you feel more comfortable doing more voice over in the future!
Thank you! 😊 It was something a couple of people requested in the comments and I thought I would give it a try. Not sure if it adds anything but it feels good to battle my shyness :P
Oh, you speak! Awesome.Gusty is very pretty. I love her green hair! Gusty was very rusty.
😊 She's a beaut!
Its so satisfying to see them refreshed this way.
the golden glitter cutie mark is perfect!!!
Thank you!!! It's a bit bigger than the original though, but I'm learning 😊
Beautiful restoration 💕 and I love your uses of both voiceovers (thanks for your cc btw! As a deaf person, it is very appreciated) and music, very relaxing 😌
Thank you so much! 😊😊
I love these videos!! Thanks for giving little Gusty a second chance 🥰
Very glad you like them! 😊😊
She speaks!!! OMG!!! 😱
Lol, awesome job on the restoration!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Haha thank you 😊😊
Is such a joy to watch you working on making these ponies pretty again.
thank you Paula 😊😊
Your voice is amazing! I whould love to hear it more in your videos, i truly find it very pretty ^^ i really like the result, the mark is really shinyyyy luv it!
Wow, thank you so much! 😊😊 I would love to do more, I've always been quite insecure about my voice and especially my accent. Listening to myself after recording is a challenge. But it voice-over instructions are useful, I'm happy to add them!
This is my favorite restoration of yours! The pony is so pretty and I like how you did the cutie mark!
Thank you 😊😊
Yesss, Wintergatan.... her hair was in pretty good condition, all things considered. I could never keep my toy's hair nice and neat, they all tended to get ruined and matted...
Yes! Did you know Wintergatan let you use their music for free (voluntary fee)? I'm really grateful to them. I always struggle with hair. Some materials are really difficult to tame!!
I absolutely love your videos! I cant give an opinion on whether to do a voice over or not though. I watch your videos on mute before I fall asleep because they are super relaxing (for me at least). Your videos have inspired me to find my g3 (I think) Tira mi su pony and get her all cleaned up and ready to display, along with I would like to get some g1 ponies too. I have a new respect for the ponies. All your restorations are absolutely stunning!
Thank you so much for your message and your feedback. I love reading that even though you had G3s, you like G1s as well! 😊 I hope to upload a G3 restoration soon too, I'm working on it. Thanks again for watching!!
loved the cute intro at the beginning!! it was nice to hear your voice! great restoration as always :)
Thank you so much 🥰😊
I love what you did with the cutie mark here. Gorgeous
Thank you so much 🥰😊
The symbol/cutie mark ended up looking amazing! Wonderful work 💕🥰
Thank you 🥰😊
Fantastico! Todooo. Tu voz, el pelito, los ojos, las hojas otoñales, la musica! Un logro! Felicitaciones!. Better and better!
Muchísimas gracias 😊😊😊
Awesome job! This one came out gorgeous! Cool to hear you talk at the beginning!
Thank you 🥰☺️
ahh the cutiemarks look great! well done :D
your voice is also very nice to listen to! ^^
Thank you so much 😊😊 That's very nice!
So great to hear you! 😊
I hope this is but the beginning of more of your voice overs for upcoming vids.
Love your channel! You are a big inspiration to me xx
Thank you so much! That's very kind 😊 Are you doing or planning to do restorations? I'd love to see the results!
Great work, as always. Cuty marks look awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much!! 😊
I love your work, you put a lot of patience and dedication into it, I love to see it 💖
Thank you so much 🥰😊
She looks so pretty! Excellent job on this one!
Thank you so much!
Omg!!! 😍😍😍 love those Argentina pony hair colors!! And the leaves are just perfection ❤️
Thank you so much!! 😊😊
Hi, I like how you reply to every single comment, and not ignore the important ones! It really shows how much you dedicate yourself to helping everybody and/or give them explanations! Especially, when it comes to youtube crafters,like one person would be asking for example how to do something shown in the video and no one would respond. Thanks for that!
Thank you so much for your message 😊😊 If someone takes the time to write with suggestions, questions or just comments, the least I can do is reply with at least a few words. I don't know if I will always be able to do it but I hope to for as long as I can, especially if I can help. I love this hobby and I'm really glad I get to share it with so many people 🥰
Quedó super bonita 😍 gusty es de mis ponis favoritas y me encantó que te animaras a hablar en un video tullo jeje felicidades
Muchas gracias, me dió mucha verguenza 😖 pero me habían pedido que pruebe así que hice sólo la intro. Estoy tratando de subir los subtítulos en español pero no me cargan, pronto estarán!
@@RetroGeekCrafts Animo que no te de pena
Absolutely wonderful restoration!!!!
Thank you so much 😊😊
Great restoration, awesome paint work on those leaves.
Thank you very much! 😊😊
I love your restoration videos! They've inspired me to start giving it a try, thank you for these!
Wow, I love reading this!! 😊😊 Feel free to show me your results via IG or FB, I'd love to see!
@@RetroGeekCrafts I'd love to show you what I've been able to do, I'll seek you out on Facebook to send some before and after pics!
You have such a lovely voice!! I’d love to hear it in more videos (if you’re comfortable doing so). Great job on the pony as always ❤️
Thank you so much 🥰😊 I am working on some tutorials with voice-over, I hope to upload them soon!
Yay!
Thank you so much!! ☺️☺️
I liked the glittery stuff you added on Gusty's Cutie Mark
I’ll be honest, I was never a big fan of MLP growing up, but seeing you restore these makes me want to try it myself! :D
That's excellent news!!! Feel free to send me a DM if you have any questions. It's a great hobby :)
I love your work they turn out so beautiful ❤
I love the talking! I lvoe hearing verbal instructions :D
Thank you so much for the feedback!
This one took a lot of work! I love her green hair!
Thank you 🥰☺️
the talking at the start was really nice!! this is one of my favourite restorations of yours so far, really relaxing and fun to watch as always!! :D
Thank you 🥰☺️ I'm trying to make them more relaxing (slower video for example) but I get tempted with the happier songs :P
the before and after is just CRAZY also I hope you make more voiceovers soon :D
Thank you so much 😊😊 I'm working on some voice-over surprises!
I never expected to great your voice! I've only seen about a dozen of your videos so far. You sound very friendly!
Thank you 😊😊
Oooh, it feels so nice to hear your voice! ♥ ♥
Your videos are always amazing like I say! Keep it up once again! \o/
Thank you so much!! 😊😊
Busting out the metallic paint!! Fancy! Love this restoration 🥰
Thank you so much 😊🥰
she's beautiful! and Gusty is one my fave G1 one unicorns 💫 nice job !!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video, I love Gusty too 😊
@@RetroGeekCrafts 😊 ya forgot to ❤ me again. an yesh i did enjoy the video. i always do.
I love this :)
The idea with the special part of the cutie mark is very good. It gives a unicorn pony the special clou. :)
If I see this all I get nostalgic. As a child I had an blue earth pony with yellow hair. But I lost it. So I don't remember which pony it was. To see how the ponies get a fresh up from you let me smile and gives me the nostalgic feeling why I love the G1 ponies. :) Thank you for that :)
Thank you for your message 😊😊 Do you remember the colour of the body? There aren't that many ponies with yellow hair so it might be easy to find! I'm glad you enjoyed the video 🥰
@@RetroGeekCrafts The body was blue
*Ooooh! This pony is so cute and you made her even cuter!*
Thank you! 😊😊
Yesss, I loved the voice over!
Thank you Daniel!! 😊😊
I had no idea that the Argentina Gusty looked so different from the US toy! Fantastic work as always, I think the voice-over at the start was a nice way to introduce the video!
Thank you 🥰☺️ Argentinian ponies have the most unexpected combinations :)
Sudden realization that this is the G1 character that FiM's "Gusty the Great" was based on
You are correct!! "As a unicorn, Gusty was able to use magic with her horn, but the extent of her magic was unknown. Considering her cutie-mark, she was likely adept at using wind magic."
Relaxing! u_u Thank you for sharing your hobby with us!
My pleasure 😊
Gusty was always one of my favorites (love that green mane/tail) -- absolutely beautiful results! Those leaves look so pretty. It's awesome to hear your voice too! I think I prefer both -- the text on the screen is also very helpful.
Thanks so much! I love Gusty too, and when I saw this version I had to get it! Thank you for the feedback too, I'm thinking maybe adding voice to some new tutorial videos :)

Your voice is so lovely! 😊
Thank you so much, I was a little terrified but some people had requested I try it so... I only did the intro. If you don't mind it terribly annoying I'm happy to do more commentary 😊
Haha I see you went ahead and did commentary! All of your videos are so lovely, narration is just a little favorite of mine haha
Oh thank you so much! I thought I would try 😊
I had this pony when I was little!!!! I remember the leaves and green hair but forgot she was a unicorn! I couldn’t remember her name either!!
That's great!! She's a beauty, very special. I always loved white ponies, especially with these colourful manes. I hope you can find yours! 😊
Великолепная работа, прекрасный результат!!!🤗👍🙋🏻♀️
Большое спасибо 🤗🤗
I love restoring ponies too, but I've never done some of the cool stuff you do. This inspired me to go back to my princess ponies (I own both complete sets) and use fabric softener and a straightening iron to help me tame their wild tinsel hair! It actually worked! They're drying right now, I'm excited to take photos of them!
My only concern is that my Princess Pristina's hair color leaked a bit while the fabric softener was settling in their hair. It's still very vibrant so I'm not too worried, hopefully the color doesn't stain the body while the hair is wrapped up and drying! I did rinse it thoroughly before wrapping it. I didn't know hair color could leak like that!
Thank you for the fun and informative videos!
Hello fellow restorer! ☺️☺️ I'm so glad you could tame the tinsel, in my experience it's very very difficult to handle. I'm impressed! I hadn't heard of colour leaking before, that's a shame. I need to look into it. Thank you so much for your message!! ☺️☺️
@@RetroGeekCrafts I think I may have gotten lucky with my princesses cause none of them were in too terrible shape when I originally got them. The tinsel doesn't look perfect again, but the improvement is very visible and that alone is satisfying!
Luckily Princess Pristina's hair color didn't stain anything! I had noticed when I started ironing all of them that there was strange color stains all over the paper towel where she was resting. Her hair is a very bright chartreuse so I'm going to guess it's something to do with how the dye in the hair reacted to the fabric softener. Maybe if you have any ponies with that hair color (such as Surprise) you could test and see if it happens to you? I'm not sure if its the brand or quality of the fabric softener that did it lol
EDIT: I found the answer! Apparently this specific hair color has a habit of dye leakage when in contact with moisture! Now I'm really glad Pristina didn't stain anything, I'll definitely be more cautious when handling this hair color in the future! www.mlppreservationproject.com/body.html
@@ludicrouslunatic Ohhhh wow, thank you so much for letting me know about the leakage! I have a surprise but I rehaired her with dry hair (this was a while ago) so I didn't notice. They must add some special inks to make it that neon colour! I wonder if this is the case with new hair too, you don't really see these shades -- maybe that's why!
Wow, you talked :O Although, would like to see some of that nice font(the words) on top of your talking for us late night viewers 😄 Loved the video 👏👏👏👏
That's a good point! I added subtitles but you have to turn them on. Next time I talk (if I do :P) I will add them, I promise ☺️
Was that nail polish for the glitter. I'm so glad to see another restorer using it. I've never had any problems and sometimes I find it just works a lot better than acrylic paint to really get the colours vibrant ❤️
Great job on the cutie mark, I love it! 😁
Thank you! 😊 Looking at it now, it's rather.... large in comparison with the original. I might have to try again xD
@@RetroGeekCrafts I'm going to embark on a project of my own. What paint would be good to use?
Omigosh your voice is so sweet!!!!!! 😩💕
Wow, thank you!! 💕
The pony looks great! Maybe consider usibg some sort of sealent to make sure your work isnt ruined.
Thank you! I seal them with Army Painter matte spray but only at the end. I should probably start doing it between layers so I can revert things when they don't go as planned 😊
Lo haces muy bien saliditos..
Muchas gracias Edilia. Estoy subiendo los subtítulos pero me están dando problemas, pronto estarán completos.
It turned out very cute☺️❤️
Thank you so much :) :)
🥰🥰🥰🥰 This was a great one! You're amazing!
Thank you so much!! 😊😊
Amazing work
Thank you so much 🥰😊
I enjoy the voice over!
That's awesome, thank you!! 😊
Something so satisfying about watching these videos
,can u restore some old funko pops?
Thank you 😊😊 Ohh I never thought of old Funko pops, I will see what I can find!
Music in this video is amazing 😌
I'm really glad you liked it! It's from Wintergatan, they are awesome. It always takes me ages to find music and I almost always regret my choices xD
Estoy aprendiendo tanto con tus videos! Graciasss! Tengo unos 16 MLP G1 de brasil, argentina y usa, y muchos necesitan remodelar el pelo, uno tiene moho, y algunos necesitan pelo, aunque me está costando encontrar por acá por argentina. Salugos! Ahora voy a seguir con este que de hecho, tengo el mismo y voy a trabajr con el esta noche
Me alegro muchisimo que ls videos ayuden!! 😊😊 Wow, que bueno que tengas tantos ponis! Los latinos son los mejores :D Si, se que es dificil encontra pelo alla. Mucha suetrte con el hobby! Si tenes preguntas podes contactrme por IG o FB!
You should talk all the time, your voice is amazing 🥰
Haha thank you, that's very kind 😊😊
I only had g4 ponys, but i still love to watch your videos, and I love your work ;-)
Thank you!!! I'm working on some G4s that I hope to upload soon 😊
This music sounds like French alien with chiptune at the beginning.
I like when you talk while having text on screen and music in the background.
I just discovered this channel and I've been binging the vids since then! I love them!
May I ask what is the music that starts around 3'50? I know there is music credited in the description, but I was under the impression it isn't the one at this point of the vid?
Also, well, I think I'm late for that anyway, but I prefer no speaking - it bothers me in that kind of content, and I tend to cut the sound altogether since it breaks my focus on what is going on. But if it's only at the beginning, it doesn't bother me that much.
Thank you so much for your message!! 😊😊 All the songs from this video are from the amazing Wintergatan. The one around 3:50 is called "04 Slottskogen Disc Golf Club". You can download it here: wintergatan.net/
Me encantan tus videos de restauraciones!!!! Gusy (Otoño) quedó espectacular!!!.
Para el pelito usaste suavizante de ropa?, tengo varios ponies con pelo muy deteriorado.
Que trabajo de precisión pintar esas hojas, excelente el resultado!!
No soy RetroGeek pero creo que puedes usar el suavizante de ropa o acondicionador (que es más barato, tienes mas silicona), perdón por mi español 😅
Muchas gracias!! Si, use las dos cosas en realidad. Acondicionador primero, y suavizante de ropa para plancharlo ☺️
Thanks ❤️💗💞💕 I really needed it ❤️
You’re welcome 😊 I hope you're well. Sending love ❤️❤️
@@RetroGeekCrafts I hope you are well too! 💖🌸🍒
For a moment, I thought I was on the wrong channel. XD Your voice is cute. It was pleasant to hear it. Also I loved the results!
P.S.: The songs you chose this time are pretty cool too. They sound like magic and adventure. :)
Thank you! I always fear the music is too much. I want to also try more relaxing music too, just in case 😊 For this video I used Wintergatan, I highly recommend their channel!
@@RetroGeekCrafts I've added some of Wintergatan's songs to my Spotify playlist. :) Hey, do you know Ludovico Einaudi? He has lots of beautiful and relaxing songs. I think you'll like them.
@@mimikachan12 I'll check them out, thank you so much!!
Love this pony
Was a nice surprise to hear your voice!! 😆 Found your channel a few weeks ago by accident and I'd like to thank you for rekindling my love for mlp 🐎🤗 Since then I've found my first g1 ponies at thrift stores Applejack, Lickety Split and Talk a lot 😊 Talk a lot has a rusty tail but I'm not sure how to fix it due to the electronic parts, do you have any tips with this? Or if anyone in the comments has some ideas I'd be grateful for the help
That's so great to hear 😊😊 You were in luck finding those G1s!! I'm honestly not sure about the rusty tail with the mechanical parts... I haven't done one of those yet. I'll see if I can find one to try!
You have inspired me to restore my Moondancer. Her cutie marks are faded. Her moons on both sides are almost completely gone. After watching your videos I feel confident I can fix her. Thank you.
That's so great to hear!! Best of luck with your restoration and let me know if you have any questions ☺️
@@RetroGeekCrafts thank you
wow ace restoration ! :)
Thank you! ☺️☺️
Another fantastic job
Thank you 😊😊
Good Job!
As an mlp fan This is so relaxing and You teached me how to restore my Ponies! Where are you from? Hugs from Chile 💖🇨🇱
I'm really glad you enjoyed the video ☺️ I'm actually from Argentina! But I live in the UK.
Wow this video is 4 days old before I saw it. Makes me realize how sick I was recently to not even get online to see your new upload. She turned out so cute.
Do you flat iron the hair with the fabric softener still in it? If you do, do you wash it after the the flat ironing or just leave the softener in completely?
Oh no, I hope you're feeling better. I use conditioner or fabric softener only for the straightening part and then wash it off. It's never bad to leave the cream for a few hours before rinsing, though, it helps with frizz :)
@@RetroGeekCrafts thank you so much, and yes, I’m feeling much better now. ❤️
I was kinda hoping you remove the hair but then I remembered your skills and tbh it looks really nice also your voice is lovely 👌... LIKE
Thank you so much 😊😊 I always try to keep the original hair unless it's cut very short, and the colour for this one was so incredible!
Woh, I never expected to hear your voice ...!
Hiiiiii :P
I love yours vídeos ❤️
Thank you 😊😊😊
Just out of curiosity, why does the silicone in the shampoo benefit the ponies hair? And great video as always :)
I have been trying to find a source for my claim without much luck. This is something I read a few time in restoration groups. From what I read, silicone is a plastic in itself, and it costs other materials (for example, cheap silicone shampoos make your hair shinny because it's costing it, but in the long term it dries the hair). My uninformed guess is that it fills in any missing nylon bits. I'll see if I can find more info!!
fantastic work as always. ^_^
Thank you so much 💕
Is the glitter you used nail polish? Can you use the cream peroxide on a pony with a colored body or only white/cream ponies?
i just love how you talked through the video i hope you talk more in your videos from now on gezz you got to gustys tail just in time you did. I have a questin is actone just nail polish remover and does it work on plastic as well? A doll i have had since i was 3 years old is coverd in marks from being loved and played plus I have some schleich horses that have marks over them and i want to know if i can remove them
Thank you 😊😊 Most nail polish removers are acetone-based, but I heard a few of them aren't and they won't have much effect. It should say on the bottle if it has acetone. It works well in other plastics I have tried, but I tested it on a Polly Pocket toy and it actually eroded it. It's quite a powerful solvent, definitely safe for vinyl but not necessarily for other plastics. I'm not sure which ones are "bad", but what you can do is try a little bit with a cotton bud, maybe in a n area that is not visible. If the plastic is coloured and the cotton bud gets stained with that colour, then it means it's eroding it. Does that make sense?
@@RetroGeekCrafts yes it does make sense thanks i defintly give it a go
Amo tus videos
Muchas gracias 😊😊
Such a good job! Do you have any of the Sea Ponies?
Thank you! 😊 I do have two sea ponies in process of repair, but they had bad age spots so they are taking a while!
Why are many of them are from Argentina? 🧐
I Loved It!
Because I'm from Argentina 😉 (I don't live there but I buy ponies from local markets). Thank you ☺️☺️
