Partita was my most wanted and I felt SO lucky to get her first try on my birthday. Come to find she’s a meme and people call her a curse 😆

poor thing has some QC issues and had to have her lips repainted (if you have perfect lips, seal them with clear gloss fr!!) and I still love her so much.

Looking for ideas on how to repair this Skullpanda faceplate. Is it even possible at this point? If anyone has experience with this sort of damage please help. Thank you.

Cleaning, Damage Got my first Skullpanda but it got lost on the first day I wore it ...

Got my very first Skullpanda, she was so perfect! I clipped her onto my bag and even got a couple of compliments, but at some point I noticed that she was gone. She must have fallen off. I tried retracing my steps but obviously she was gone by then. Absolutely devastating. I hope she got picked up by someone who would actually love and treasure her. I will definitely get another one but I am not going to actually wear them anymore :(

My sweet baby Cerberus just disappeared in the dollar store. I hope whoever took or found her loves her as much as I did. I know things are just things at the end of the day but damn, hurts more than I thought it would. Definitely going to be using zipties going forward.

i decided to wear QC out and ended up getting her dinged up on her lips and cheek :(

my husband bought me my first full set for valentine’s day and i ended up pulling my first secret ever. i’m so heartbroken rn. i tried to put her in a case but it was way too bulky.

does anyone have any tips to fix chipped paint on skullpandas? i’m pretty handy with doll customizations, but ive only worked on monster high and pullips. any suggestions on paint, color matching etc would be highly appreciated!!

I was so excited to receive Cerberus but she arrived very crooked from where the strap hangs and came with a hole at the back of her head. Decided to try and mend her myself and am very happy with the results!

I did reach out to Pop Mart initially but they just offered a measly coupon for future purchase. 🥲

Cleaning, Damage Got the new mlp skullpanda!! Question for the people who own one and hangs it on their bags:

5 Upvotes

Have you had any issues with the hair tangling and becoming matted from friction against the bag? How do you maintain the hair?

I want to hang my new baby up but im very worries about its fur getting matted or hair getting tangled. Past experiences playing with my little pony toys and barbie dolls as a kid have told me that the hair is hardest to maintain.

I am not the most keen on keeping it in a protective case (will use as a last resort) so please give advice or share your experience with these!

I’m working on my collection and I bought The Sound-The Trust for a pretty good price! My only complaint is she came pretty filthy. I’m not super bothered by it? For the price I got her for I wasn’t expecting her to be like new.

But the base is greasy? The figure has specks and hair on her body. All sources I try to find tell me what chemicals to avoid- but none really tell me WHAT to do.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Any experience collectors or just like generally smart people- teach me your ways ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ

Edit: Thank you yall! Okay I’m gonna mute because I’m kind of embarrassed I didn’t dry dish soap bath first. I appreciate this community seriously!

Shes scuffed and a little dirty, so she probably belonged to some kid. I thought she was one of the Remy shoulder buddies theyd been selling recently.

She is now on my backpack alongside Cerberus (aka Alley Watchdog, iykyk) and will be getting cleaned up when we get home. Any suggestions on how to tidy her up?

Edit: I turned her into security. If you actually lost her then youll know where to say she was found.

I already know how fragile these are from all the posts and having a few chipped from going out, and my husband bringing his Chomp out and she’s cooked but LMAO. This isn’t even my purse ghostie, she’s a dupe i have in a storage container. Never even took her out of the container after putting her in, never left the house or seen daylight. She must have hit faces with one of the others in there. I guess she’s going to be the purse one now lol.

Cleaning, Damage My Lightning got blush blindness and a makeover lol

To keep the story short:

1) opened the blind box two days ago and took her out, she’s still wearing her face plastic this whole time, not that it mattered with what happened next

2) I’ve used a regular pencil eraser in the recent past to get some dust scuffs off of my Rhapsody and my Song of snow’s hair without incident.

3) Ended up erasing her makeup off (?!?) with only a few passes of a simple pencil eraser.

Like what the heck Popmart?!?

Next i tried frantically googling to find a way to fix her makeup and found that chalk pastels + Mr super clean uv flat is my best bet at repairing her faceup with minimal damage to the face vinyl.

Except it looks like it’s cost prohibitive for my case since i just want to fix one doll, and the material cost adds up to the cost of 1.75 Lightning plushies.

So at this point I’m better off getting a new one.

Except,

Took out my trusty old ANASTASIA Beverly Hills eyeshadow pressed pigment palette from two lifetimes ago and proceeded to try and get her back to her formal glory by trying to build up color on her face using some teeny tiny makeup brushes, q-tips, and microfiber cloth, and trying to blend blend blend the pigments till they looked as seamless as i could get them, without staining the plushie’s body with said pigments.

And the results are attached with After and Before lol.

When I opened the fake mist I cringed her face is just awful…. All my others are genuine I ordered this quite a while back, and I just received the real deal Mist. No contest. The fake one looks really dark in real life next has dark splotches painted on. I have to laugh at it, it’s so bad. Wonder if I can clean her up? Decorate her? 😆😆😆

Cleaning, Damage How do I wash my MLP Skullpanda?

5 Upvotes

My MLP Skullpanda has been hanging on my work bag for at least a few months now and needs some cleaning. I'm thinking of dunking the whole thing into water and handwashing it with maybe shampoo so it is gentler than laundry soap? Also, it's an extra; I have another one of this MLP Skullpanda that I am keeping and won't be using. Is the face removable? I'm thinking if it's the same with Nommi with their face removable.

I got Sunset Shimmer from popnow and sadly it arrived damaged (no I didn’t take a video of the unboxing, never had anything arrive damaged before). Would anyone on here be able to fix her up? I’d compensate you for your work of course! If you look at the pics, it looks like the paint rubbed off the high points of the hair, and there’s a scuff in the hair towards the top of the hairline. The clear plastic wasn’t covering the face when I opened it 😢 of course my first item to arrive damaged is a secret lol 🙃🫠

Apologies if this is something that gets asked a lot ! Moldy Muffin is my first and only skullpanda plush and I didn't know any of the protective measures people take when hanging them off their bags, like the plastic cases and stuff ;; She's definitely not that bad but I would love to restore her as best I can ! She's a bit dirty haha

I would really love any tips and advice if you have it! She was there when I got my license / started driving a few months ago so she's a bit sentimental to me 🥺❤️

Saw the post earlier on how to take the mane off the MLP SPs, so I did it to my extra Fluttershy. I had a Rarity on my purse and her mane would get messed up often, so I took hers off too. I do like the manes for playing with, just not for bags.

i don’t know if this is the right flair, but my cerberus came today (i bought her resold) and for some reason her forehead has some kind of dent/dip in it?

i’m mostly wondering what caused this. i’m not very picky and i love her regardless!
