I think SCS's hotwalker was a brand the same size as schleich, I don't know. I can't put pictures up, they always fail. But I can tell you a few of the typos. One of my newer pony's that I got has a black paint blotch that goes all the way up her leg that is jagged. My curly mares mane is all kinda messed up, and out of the hair line. And my mare pagoda, the new icelandic one has deformed legs that go outwards.
I have the curly mare at my dads and she is just fine. Beautiful exactly. I don't have the other models you said.

I have the new Curly mare and I think she's great. I don't have the Icelandic mare though.

Ya, I think the people who painted mine may have just messed up. But still, all of my horses les are basicly bendable. They are painted in china, so it is believable if they just hired cheap work, not actual good painters.

People!! Just because it's made in China doesn't mean it's junky! Yes they'd legs are kinda bendy, so don't bend them! That's just the kind of plastic they're made in. They are hand painted, which makes them uniqie-ish. Everything almost in America 's are in China, yet you still love that stuff.
I'm going to ask if I can have a youtube channel

ooh! Yay get one!! Didn't you already have one though??
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 19:47:37
Does any one have any good ideas for a series?
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 20:34:16
Ya, I thoguht you did... No, china isn't junky, just they can't always hire the best painters cause there aren't that many artist who want to work for toy companys. Maybe a normal day stable series, or a show series about different shows!

What about one about the horses point of view in a normal barn?
I did have one. But I deleted it because my sister watches horse stable stuff on youtibe a lot and might come across my stuff. So then she'd find out. I don't want to be so secretive anymore. Because if you search for starfire stables in Google images you will find some of my images from my videos I had.

Ahh... I've gone through the same thing with my old YouTube. Deleted it after I decided not to be secretive.

Hmmm not bad.... but I'm not sure how many people would watch that. Oooh!!! Wait! I just had a genius idea! I could make some dramatic stuff! Or do a Mr. Ed kinda thing.
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 22:19:23
Maybe, never heard of him though. You guys are really secretive! I can't lie! I always smile when I do, so I always get in big time trouble too. Going to try to make an automotive starting gate by my slf.
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 22:38:34
Mr. Ed was an old tv show about a talking horse that only 1 man knew about
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 22:41:58
That would be cute!
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 22:43:02
o, I heard that you can open the starting gates by using reppeling and eppeling magnets!
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 23:01:48
That might work....... Or a pulley system!!
By Retired breeder, 7th June 2015 23:05:04
1
That would work too! I will try different versions to perfect it!
What is a starting gate?

Like in a horse race...the thing they put the horses in before the start.

Ok so we had a long day at the new house. Just gonna say, sherwin Williams wasn't open 45 minutes after it should have opened...

Anyways, 2 questions:

I got an empty painters tape roll. What should I use it for? I was kinda thinking round hay feeder, but got other ideas?

Also apparently there are free countertop swatches- stone, colorful, and wood. So they'd be great for making something stone or wood, but I don't think I can cut them, because, well, they're countertop! Got any ideas for those? They're probably 1" by 2", have a small round hole near the top, and are rather thin.

Schleich had a hot walker?! Really?! Yeah well I can make my own, I just need a Chinese takeout box and then it's super easy from there!
By Retired breeder, 8th June 2015 01:52:45
For the tape, the feed thing would be the best thing to work with. And the countertop, maybe a winning horse pedastol like the one in the schleich tournament arena, just not covered.
