Roddie (Custom Safari Ltd. TOOB Running Pony)
Roddie is a Safari Ltd. TOOB running pony painted to a portrait of a red chestnut with two socks and a wide blaze and sealed with a matte finish. I trimmed the seams a little and removed the logo, but this pony was meant as a fun shelf piece and not a Live (or Photo) Show competitor.…
