Cancer or mould.... :( I have the most mintiest Cascade ever that I got in a lot of well-loved toys, she would be the mintiest ever apart from she has a few mould marks around her neck, big ones too, everything else is sooo mint! I want to put her on display but I'm scared of other ponies catching it, but I don't want to sell her because she has fallen in love with a poor condition Salty I saved from the same lot! Awhhh! xxx

I'm fine with anything, the only thing I'm not accepting here is major tail rust (I saw a baby Lickety Split with no colour apart from yellowy brown in her tail) and plasticiser breakdown.

2 things annoy me - both of which are not "fixable" - tail and mane trims [I know you can get new hair but I like original hair and therefore trims annoy me] and also regrind because there is no beating it and its going to get your pony!

Lol...what a fussy girl I am!

I'm kinda picky, so anything that's more than a minor flaw bugs me.  I have an intense hatred of tail rust, even if it's minor.  I'd rather not break the original neck seal to fix it; I usually just wait for a better speciman to roll around.  Stains under feet bug me too; doesn't matter that you can't see them on display, I still know they're there.  I'd actually rather have a tiny ink mark in a visible spot than a big ink stain under a hoof.  Head-body mismatches irritate me too, and of course haircuts and ink stains (I can live with a tiny spot).  Cancer and regrind if it's excessive, though I know I have to be more lenient with some rare ponies.  Just got German Raindrop (both large and small symbol versions at almost the same time, actually).  Of course each one has a few tiny regrind spots, but they're hard to see, and I'm thrilled with both of my new rainbow ponies.
Nirvana grails:  Reverse Gusty (upgrade), Peru Windy and Moonstone (upgrade), Brazil TAF upgrades, Argie Powder w/ white hair (upgrade), French Windy and Moondancer (upgrades), Spain TAF's, TE's, and piggies.  These are my biggest wants, but I'm looking for tons more nirvanas, especially Greeks, Brazilians, and Peruvians.  Feel free to PM me for sales or trades.  But please note that I'm also fairly picky.

Chew marks. Especially when a seller thinks they aren't worth mentioning. -.-
 
I mean I won't pass up a chewed pony, because I'm a no pony left behind type of girl. But....eurghhh! I have no idea why it annoys me so much xD

I suppose all the incurablez bother me too, but it's just something we have to accept with these collectables being as old as they are....at least that's what I tell myself. ;)

I've never had an experience with mold or cancer, but I can see where they would be annoying.  My worst experience was major tail rust on Sky Skimmer, so I'd have to go with that one.  Then again, I had to buy a second Twilight Sparkle because the first one was terrible mismatched as far as color goes.  And the first one had bangs too!  But even my second one is a little mismatched.  :angry:

I hate initials on hooves!  I don't know why I hate it so much, it's not like you can see it when on display... just something about deliberately and permanently marking a pony really grinds my gears. 

Oh my gosh last time I went to the thrift store I saw about 6-7 (G3s and some of the re-release collector ponies) ponies that a girl had written her entire name across one side of in sharpie. :yikes: I might have been tempted to pick up those collector ones if it weren't for that.


As for personal pet peeves, I collect G4 so the ponies I get are new and any flaw out of the box that I can't fix annoys me. Mainly stains, damaged decals, glue on their faces and hair that looks like it was cut short.
