Today, we go back to the tiny world of Polly Pocket :) I got this Fairytale Castle case online, and I thought: Well, we can retrobright that! But then... then I went overboard and designed, printed, and painted the interior, too :D I can now use the case to store my Magic The Gathering cards, as they fit perfectly (and match the tapestries, made using LOTR and Gloomburrow images). So, I hope you enjoy this project. Patrons can download the 3D file for free.

Hi! I'm Yisela, the gloved hands behind the channel :) I love doing restorations and particularly enjoy repairing and customising vintage My Little Pony 🥰 (although I'm trying to include more content like dolls, Polly Pocket compacts, and action figures). My house may or may not look like a haunted toy hospital.
