Well, I’ve decided that I’m just gonna stick with Poads(TM) and Griffins in my collection. I like the dragons a lot.. but I can’t collect everything. My husband will kill me 😮
Anyway, since there is no way I’ll be able to afford that Labrodorite Griffin mom on Ebay… I want to try and get one of those pearl ones. Can someone tell me how many of them were made, and were they offered in the Windstone store at one point? I just assume they were since the male and chicks are on there. I don’t know though 😳 I got back into collecting this stuff just recently, so kinda missed out on some things like this.
Oh yeah, if anyone wants to sell their pearl griffin mother… please let me know! I will pay good money for her.
July 11, 2007 at 6:39 pm #491897July 11, 2007 at 6:43 pm #598708They were sold on ebay I believe before they had the store. I swear that it was in the store, but I noticed that it was missing so maybe they aren’t making anymore. I do have a pearl mom griffin, but I am not selling it. I still need to get the Pearl male griffin.
July 11, 2007 at 7:42 pm #598709wasn’t only one batch of pearl griffin moms made?

Yes, I believe there has only been one batch (so far). It also brings up the question if they will be discontinued, since Melody mentioned that they were trying to limit the amount of signed sculps.
July 12, 2007 at 3:51 am #598711Well, I just bought myself a male albino griffin. I’m really excited about getting him. 😀 Guess I’ll just have to do without the female for a while. Oh well! I wonder if Melody will be adding anymore of the chicks to the store anytime soon. The description says that they will be available in small groups from time to time.
July 12, 2007 at 12:37 pm #598712Pearl chicks like I and other forum members own are not going to be available again. Melody is trying to figure out a way to change the coloring so she can offer them again, but not as signed pieces. She’s trying cut back on the signe pieces.
July 12, 2007 at 12:40 pm #598713You might want to read this thread here.
If she does make more chicks, they might have different eye colors or markings. 🙂
July 12, 2007 at 12:41 pm #598714😆 Greater Basilisk beat me whilst I was floundering around with my BBCode incompetence!
July 12, 2007 at 12:42 pm #598715Well, you provided the link that I forgot about. 😆
July 12, 2007 at 1:47 pm #598716Yeah, I guess Spark said it just right in that thread. Too bad for me that I missed out on them! Oh well, maybe they’ll turn up on Ebay sometime in the future. So here’s this question – if the mother and the chicks were all limited editions… is that the same case for the male as well? One of these days I’ll be all up to speed on this stuff 🙄
July 12, 2007 at 3:07 pm #598717I’m dying to get a black sunset papa griffin myself, I hope they have orange eyes! I ended up with the wolf momma and croucher and I plan on getting the black sunset pappa and sitting chick plus the pair of pearl chicks I snagged…I just couldn’t afford the parents in pearl….
July 12, 2007 at 3:07 pm #598718Well, on the descriptions for the eBay sales page, it says the pearl male griffon is limited production. There also was a very limited 10 made of the albino male griffon, with albino eyes and somewhat different shading on feet and claws. Don’t know how many pearl male griffons were made compared to the females, though. 😕
July 12, 2007 at 3:09 pm #598719I hear you, purplecat! 😀 I can’t wait for the Black Sunset dad myself! Or the chicks… I like it when griffins don’t have blue eyes, they seem more ‘wild’ that way. *shrugs* 😳

The pearl family were all limited productions (not limited editions). I am only guessing here, but I think after the pearl males are sold out that they will not be produced again (seeing that they won’t have the mother or chicks available). I own the family and I really like them. If you can get the mom on ebay close to the issue price of $230 I don’t think you will disappointed.
