Oh my gosh! I am SO sorry to hear this! I traded with Melissa once via the Facebook group, she was so sweet. My condolences. May her collection bring you peace in her memory.

First blind trade arrived—number 237. He is beautiful! He has lots of pearlescent white with yellow-orange, blue and purple lava, an aquamarine gem, light yellow eyes, and a GORGEOUS pearl white horn that looks just like selenite. This guy almost glows in the light! He is beautiful, but I’m open to trade offers on him. I’d love to have a ponycorn with a non-black base, ideally purple, blue/teal or green, or something rainbow, striped, or with feathers or flowers. The more colorful, the better!

Melody, would you ever consider doing a grab bag batch of Hippogriff Colts in a fantasy scheme? I know you probably dont want to think about doing more this soon but.. I think they’d look so good in some of the patterns and colors you’ve done the current grab bag batch, or some of the fantasy baby unicorn batches!

I second this squeak! I think we’d all go nuts for both laying and standing hippo colts in fantasy colors, even if it isn’t this year… Please consider! 💜

That’s wonderful news!
Will the Laying Ponycorns have a Wait-list pre-order like the AWD Mother Hippogriffs did?

PLEASE do a waitlist for the ponycorns. 🙏🏻 I hate to think what a fiasco it will end up being for everyone involved if we are all trying to grab them free-for-all.

[Shiarah]

I would also love to see a batch of laying hippo colts to match! I wasn’t collecting yet when the original batch of those went out, so I’d be thrilled to get another chance at having one. 😊

[Shiarah]

Love it!! Thank you! 🥰

[Shiarah]

I would LOVE to see that PYO barong next to another, finished PYO sculpt for scale, whenever time allows. 😊 He looks so cool already!! I bet he will be fun to paint.

[Shiarah]

Well this sounds fantastic!! Yes please, adding my squeaks!

[Shiarah]

Joining the chorus begging for limited production kirins!! I would FLIP for some in tanzanite, black violet peacock, pastel rainbow, and/or whatever ends up being the LP version of Atlantis. Pretty please!

Melody,
Do you think there is any chance we will ever see Kirins in the store again? The ones on ebay lately are going for thousands so the demand is certainly there.

100% this! I for one would LOVE to see some kirin families in the existing limited production and production color schemes.

This is sort of related because it has to do with technical issues on the store-generated emails, and I thought you might want to know:

Lately, I haven’t been able to open any of the links included in either the regular “back in stock” emails for items I had waitlisted, or in the notifications on forum threads I had clicked to see replies via email. The error message I’m getting is “Could not connect to the server” and “NSURLErrorDomain” apparently related to the “Mandrillapp” links generated in those emails—when I go to the site manually, those pages open normally. This is happening regardless of which device I use and in multiple browsers. I’m not sure exactly when this started but it was pretty recent.

[Shiarah]

Mine went out yesterday!! Will we have a separate show-off thread this round?

[Shiarah]

Squeaking for fantasy hippogriff colt grab bags, in both sculpts. Also, sitting oris in production colors, including otherwise retired colors (AMETHYST). 💜

[Shiarah]

Woohoo entry sent!

[Shiarah]

Here’s 108! The first thing I thought when I took him out of the wrapping was that those markings look a little bit like butterfly wings. 😊

He’s pretty much a keeper, UNLESS someone wants to trade a bright rainbow fantasy qi-lin for him. That would be the only thing I’d give him up for.
