Hi all! Today I'm bringing you another vintage My Little Pony restoration, and it's another Argentinian variant of Flutterbye -- in this case Vairant V, "the green one". Not as challenging as other ones I've done, but still a lot of fun to work on and a pretty result. Plus, you can see our new kitty Tomy (go to 14:23) and a new rerooting tool I'm trying.

"Hummelchen" is actually small bumblebee like the cute version of it. Love your videos

@mellow_mallow 27 дней назад

Paseo is such a pleasant name to say!! And yes, best not to leave acetone on ponies lol. Acetone soaks are a method of shrinking vinyl doll heads actually!

So weird seing a green & wingless Flutterbye! I grew up with the european pinkeish orange with wings & rainbow mane & tail Flutterbye. She is one of my favorites in my collection from my childhood.

@lev21n01 28 дней назад

one of my favorite thing about a lot of the variant ponies was how far between the eyes they brought the hair, remind me of real ponies with lots of hair and it hangs on their face. These look like that to me.

I love learning about the wild world of Argentinian ponies it’s so fun 😂❤

@evelynnsometimes2 24 дня назад

theres something so comforting about toy restorations, it's just nice to see these ponies get some love

“I’m having one of those days where I find everything hilarious.” That’s a great way to live! 😂 I have to thank you so much for these videos. I’ve begun to patch up an old pony from the flea market following your example, and it’s going amazing! It’s so extremely exciting. Thank you. 🥰✨✨

Awww, kitty! Maybe Bruno will get used to him in time. ✨🐾✨

Flutterbye looks beautiful again, see you next time.

@kirbybunny6559 28 дней назад

Great work as usual 😍 You're right about the Bumblebee, for me the Symbole looks more like Butterflies. Like someone commented earlier hummelchen is a tiny Bumblebee but funfact: Hümmelchen with the ü can also be a musicinstrument a sackpipe and in some parts in Germany it's a little knife (it's a really old word for that) German is such a weird language sometimes 😅

Hello! I am your fan since you started your channel and I just wanted to say I love your work! You're so talented! Watching your videos helped me to take better care of my ponies. When I was a little kid I believed that every toy was concious and alive, now I realize that this is probally not true but I like to imagine that the ponies are happy for being restored (or customized) especially by someone as talented as you! Sorry if my english had many mistakes, I'm Brazilian and I'm not fluent :p

@EddwardTheSeventhSpaceWizard 28 дней назад

I love your pony restoration videos! Seeing the pony after the reroot is so satisfying. I think my favorite synthetic hair is nylon, I like how it feels and it’s easy to style.

@art-eroflore 28 дней назад

My cat also likes to jump up on my desk and if he sees coffee he will "sweep" his paws around the table (knocking things over) (I think he doesn't like the smell). I was actually just down the rabbithole on the MLP wiki and checked your channel to see if you'd restored any of the Lil' Litters / My Little Kitty/Puppy/Bunny toys and then saw you posted! Nice :) Pretty Paseo, I love the variant ponies.

Hümmelchen is the cutesy version of bumble bee, good job!

@prettycutecure 28 дней назад

I would like to see you try using baking soda. You just need to put like a spoon of baking soda, then add some boiling water (you just need a little bit) and try to make something like a paste. I don't how it would perform on ponies, but for dolls it amazing. I always use it. It makes them feel like brand new and removes all the dirt. If you want I can send you some pictures on Instagram.

@terril.getman5310 19 дней назад

Beautiful! I would love to see some super curly mane and tails 😮

@Prismaticlysm 28 дней назад

I love watching your videos, so calming watching you wash and paint! I was wondering if you have any tips for simply washing ponies (or just point me to a video!)? I have a ton of ponies that have been lovingly played and are fairly dirty, and some of them could use a hair wash and restyle as well. I want to ensure it's pony-safe, but I don't want to take the pony apart (remove the head), so basically just surface level cleaning (maybe slightly more intensive methods for stains).

@jackdawjames7696 26 дней назад

Hi Tomy! Pretty boy! My own boy came to say hi as soon as he saw Tomy

@johnwatson2754 28 дней назад

Ha, I had her in the 80s. Please do the large yellow seahorse with the pink hair. I think the suction cup shell was also yellow. Was my favourite bath toy. Simpler times 😂

@thechellenator 28 дней назад

Ahh, another excellent pony video to keep me company on a crummy health day. Thank you!! Your little Walking Bumble Bee Moth (LOL) turned out lovely. And hello, Tomy!

@mist3h 28 дней назад

Very glad to see a new upload from you. It’s been a while! Loved the cat intermission. I would be positive if it happens again in the future. Pony restorations just never disappoint me. I think I would like some more OOAK custom pony projects. And if at all possible and relevant, it would be fun to see a Pegasus my little pony be made into a “pigasus” flying pig. Or a pony made into a goat! Love your videos!

Just love watching your videos this one was just beautiful and loved seeing the new kitty so cute ,and I have the same problem when restoring ponies there is always a cat in the way .x😂

@nodarlingart 28 дней назад

One would call a bumble bee "die Hummel" in german, "Hummelchen" is the cutsy version one would use in children stories to make it sound extra sweet, like a nickname for the "Hummel", and "das Hümmelchen" is a kind of a small bagpiepe. To be honest, even as a german myself I never heard the word "Hümmelchen" and had to look it up, and stumbled over the sentence you read. The word refers to the type of bagpipe, not the word trim, wich was used to describe its size. One could translate the word trim to all kinds of german words wich have nothing to do wich each other, but in this case it was used to describe the smaller then usual size of the "Hümmelchen". But why they called the pony "Hummelchen", even though the symbols are clearly butterflys, wich would mean "Schmetterling" in german, remains a mystery 😄🐝🦋

@elsagillespie5210 28 дней назад

Tomy's a cutie. When Paseo met Tomy this is what I was thinking. Paseo: My name's Paseo, what's your's? Tomy: -sniffs Paseo's "cutie mark"- It's Tomy. I need to go now though.

@jackdawjames7696 26 дней назад

Looks amazing, Jisela! (I think that’s your name? Sorry if not!) You always do such amazing work with your restorations. I hope I can do the same with my G2 Princess Silver Swirl one day!

@TaysaysDaisuki 15 дней назад

As a nail tech, acetone goes straight through nitrile gloves, so use latex if you are not allergic. Have you thought of using a nail drill for sanding/shaping when you rebuilt or repair parts of the ponies?

@Just1Nora 25 дней назад

I can't say this with any certainty, but I'd imagine that Paseo means the pose. She is trotting along, so stroll makes perfect sense to be the name of the pose. Or perhaps they took the name from the pose, or because the light green color plus butterflies reminds one of a stroll through a spring garden. I'm just guessing with no facts to back this up, though. It's interesting how the other languages all use the shape of the rump stamp to name the pony, but Argentina went, "Naaaah...this is OUR version and we'll color and name it what we like!" 😂

@annareifer2249 27 дней назад

Yes "Hummelchen" is the german word for "Bumble Bee" , but the cuter version. "Hummel" is the normal version, everything with: "Chen" in the ending is a cute version but dont work for everything. Greetings from Germany :)

@Kira_Nakasashi 26 дней назад

I am not a native of Spanish or English, but I imagine a bit how "flutterby" can be translated to walking by which can become paseo (which could also mean walk by potentially?)

@duxkx5548 28 дней назад

I wish I could send you one of my ponies so you could fix it lol

@patriciasalasgarcia2820 18 дней назад

hi girl! I want to do my own customs, so i was wondering, where do you buy the hair? I cant find any quality ones anywhere 🥲 also, I love your work, I´ve been watching your videos for a long time now :)

@ElectricRose9001 26 дней назад

I wonder if Walk came from a loss in translation? Like "to flutter by" instead about the bug. 😅

I need you all pony experts on finding the name for the pony pin that I recently got she has a light pinky peach coat and rainbow hair and purple eyes and purple umbrella symbols on her rump can you help me with her name? She looks like a G1 pony she also has a light blue bow on her tail
