The eyes look light orange to me. If you look at the photo of the bottom, there’s no felt pad and it looks like there’s a stamp. Probably a really really old one then, such a pity it was ruined. Maybe that could account for if the eyes are a lighter color than normal also?
Can you help me identify? I am trying to find these and can’t. I’m looking to get these appraised, but don’t know what these are. Or if they are “real” or fakes.
They’re real. The best check for current prices is the ebay Windstone “Sold” listings for white pieces.
A coiled male sold for $31.99 plus $8.85 shipping on January 9.
A white scratching dragon sold for $139.00 Buy It Now plus $5.95 shipping (not enough to cover the cost, by the way) on December 9. That one may have been lower than market value due to the Buy It Now.
Another one sold for $125.00 plus $11.70 shipping in October.
One hatching baby shows up, but he was a best offer accepted, plus shipping from the UK, so it is hard to judge. Maybe $20 – $25 as a starting price for the baby?
Wizards like yours have not sold for a lot recently.
One was $22.95 Buy It Now plus $9.95 shipping on January 9.
Another sold for $59.95 Buy It Now plus $2.95 shipping in December.
Good luck with your sales.
Basically, what etruscan said! But I wanted to suggest checking out the “wanted” Classified Ads here on the Windstone Forums, because I’m pretty sure I saw someone looking for a wizard like yours there.

Hello Everyone,
I am new to this site and to collecting Windstone… I bought this guy for 5 bucks at a thrift store 5years ago. As a 9yr old I had done a drawing of a cat with at first dragon wings, then one with featherd wings… so when I saw this guy I had to have him. I am in my 30s now and he has been posted up on my self since I brought him home.Can anyone help me ID him and how to repair him?? Chip in wing and paint on claw. some of his black has come off too.. Not really wanting to sell him either just what he is.
Thanks!!
That is the Windstone “Large Bird Winged Flap Cat” in the color “black”, issued in 1993 and retired in 2002. $5 was a killer deal, congrats!
Yes I echo the congrats on a great deal for your flap cat! If you look at the repair thread, there are lots of great tips on there for repairing chips and matching paint and such. I hope it goes well!
Looking for rainbow or pink & teal grab bags!
Thank you both! I had no idea they cost that! I pretty impressed at my deal! Going to keep my eyes open for anymore I find around! The sweetheart isn’t going be happy lol.
Congrats on that find!
Ooops,another one caught the Windstone bug.Every act matters.No matter how small💞
(Wanted......Toaster Dragon)
Male Hearth....one day🤞Dream on.I recently purchased an amethyst spectral dragon for my mom for Mother’s Day. He has a birthmark on his flank in the form of a single gold scale amidst his purple hide. Is this deliberate? What does it mean?
The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed.

It is deliberate; you can see the gold scale in the Windstone Store photo of the amethyst spectral dragon. I don’t think it means anything, other than looking pretty. 🙂 Some of the earlier dragon colors, like green and brown, had even more scales picked out in different colors to add visual interest.
Haha you are correct. I looked at that photo yesterday and skipped right over it thinking there was no mark (the picture my mom sent me made the mark bright and gleaming so my eyes just slid right over the store picture). I have seen some of the old pieces, like the brown, having scattered scales of different colors but never a single scale. Also, there was one up on eBay recently that my mom missed out on (this is why she got a brand spanking new one for Mother’s Day <3) and that one defiantly did not have the beauty mark. I spent last night looking at amethyst spectral and other spectral colors and only saw one or two with the single gold scale. It's very pretty.

Does every Amethist Spectral Dragon have this mark? My mom is convinced that everyone ever made has this mark and I think I have seen an Amethist Spectral Dragon with out it. I couldn’t give her a straight answer so I thought I would ask you guys.
