As a collector, I like G1 tinsel.

HOWEVER, as a kid I'm pretty sure I would have hated it.  Especially if, heaven forbid, it ever got out of control or frizzled.

Even as a collector I don't like G3 tinsel hair (except the series that had Waterfire in it, because that tinsel was more manageable) and I don't like any of the G4 tinsel.

Hmm I think if I were to make my own custom and it was part of the design, it would be fine. I mean in that case it hasn't had the chance to get damaged and fizzed out. On regular ponies though, unless they're in very good condition I'd probably avoid tinsel. It's a shame because I love the stuff but on ponies it can be a nightmare.

My wife looks at me, and says "You'd better get used to tinsel!! You've got a fair bit of your own!"   *points at the silver streaks i'm getting in my hair*

I generally like the tinsel on ponies, but I hate it when it's all crinkled because I avoid de-tinselling. If there was a pony I really liked but it looked good only without the tinsel or be very hard or expensive to get with straight tinsel, I'd probably de-tinsel.
I don't like tinsel on any other things, though.

At first I hated tinsel because it was hard to take care of. But after discovering that you can iron it with great results, I'm starting to like it a bit more ^^

Iron? I thought heat application melted the tinsel. o_o
