Common Ponies HTF in Good Condition?

[babystarz]

Are there any ponies you think are hard to find in decent shape, even if there are a lot of them floating around?

I'm having a rough time finding a Baby Puddles or Peeks that isn't in really bad shape. They all seem to have ingrained dirt galore and permanently ruined frizzy/cut hair. I was actually looking for them when I was collecting a few years ago too, and I had this problem even back then. Baby Bunkie often has the same bad hair, although I've seen a few Bunkies with great, silky hair. I've never spotted Puddles or Peeks with good hair except for MIB. I haven't had this problem with any of the other twin sets. I wonder if the issue is just that purple hair and its inability to hold up to playing with the ponies?

So softs! Ug. Finding them with good flocking is pain, but I only need 3 more for a complete first edition set

Oh yes, even the great ones usually have flocking missing on their eartips and toes Which 3 are you still looking for?

I dont think its difficult to find Party Time without regrind.....its impossible! Such a pony does not exist and I am sure they all came out their boxes with regrind already starting!

tootise! I never realized how often her head and body mismatch and her lollipops always are faded to white!
The 82s (cotton candy etc) are always pretty manky as well with lots of ingrained dirt etc

Ah yes, any pony with that maddening fading pink hair is hard to find mint. I'm having problems finding a TAF Love Melody for the same reason. And I hear you on Lemon Drop too. Bowtie is often the same way I think.

i read this and got pleased for a second because the Tootsie i'm selling has unfaded pink lollypops and perfectly matched head/body and i could help you out... but then i remembered that she has a symbol scuff damnnn

Galaxy! We had her like 5 times and she is either riddled with regrind or has bad hair!!!

Starshine was a pain to find NM for me....

[BlackCurtains]

I have a regrind free Party Time She does have ink stains on her though 

To add to the list, Gingerbread is hard to find in good condition.

I feel like every Sweet Stuff I've seen listed has had cancer.

I'll second or third regrind-free Party Time and especially Cloud Puff.  My Puddles and Peeks have frizzy hair but their thrift store finds so I'm not surprised.

Isn't 4 Speed another one that has cancer issues?  I don't think mine does but he does have a forelock cut (I still love him.)

I have issues finding mint Glory, Moondancer and their babies.  There always seems to be glitter loss and/or yellowing.
