Show me your "quirky" ponies!
« on: November 12, 2015, 01:49:39 PM »
Today I received a G4 CMM Sweetie Drops in the mail, and I was super excited because she's impossible to find in stores in the US (at least where I live)! As an added bonus, she wasn't loose and came with her little charm necklace.

But then I noticed her eye decals were a slightly misaligned--a little quirk I like to call "eye wonk". Luckily, she's in good company: the very first G4 earth pony I ever got, Cheerliee, also has a bit of a misplaced eye. Here's a picture of them next to a cheapo rainbow dash for comparison.

At first, these kinds of factory hiccups annoyed me, but I think it adds a bit of character and they've become endearing traits. :)

Do any of you have ponies with little quirks that you have a soft spot for? Chewed-off legs, chopped off hair, gel pen victims, fellow eye-wonkees, etcetera? I'd love to see them! Quirky ponies need love too!

Here's my famous lemony gem blindbag!

It still amazes me that I didn't notice for months that she had an issue, especially one so obvious XD I just now noticed that she has eyelashes misprinted on her hair too! I just don't know what went wrong with this girl lol!!!

oh my goodness  :lol: She reminds me of a picasso portrait!  I've only bought 2 blind bags, but they both were pretty standard. I can only imagine how funny it was to finally notice that misprint! thanks for sharing :)

Sad to say I don't have any interesting quirky "error" ponies. I think the closest thing I have is a G1 newborn with her symbol missing on the right side-- I don't think it was rubbed off as the rest of her looks fine, it seems to have never been there.

I do have a Lucky that looks like the unluckiest pony ever! Mohawk, beat up and chewed, age spots... I think he's absolutely precious the way that he is. :P

I kinda wish g4s had symbols on both sides...that way, you could display them from either side. It sounds like your g1 newborn was ahead of her time! ;)

Well-loved ponies are the best! It sounds like Lucky is lucky to have someone who played with him so much :) Sometimes I look at my childhood toys and wonder why I didn't take better care of them....but I guess toddler me showed my love for my plastic animals by gnawing on their feet. :P

These "eye-wonk" ponies are killing me!  :silly:

I don't have any factory-quirk ponies that I know of, but now when I get around to spa day(s), I'm definitely going to be paying extra close attention for any unique characteristics, lol!

I do have a lot of ponies who have been "extra loved" with haircuts, and a Princess Royal Blue with a bit of a chip in one ear...things like that. But that's it. I can't wait to see more examples of other people's quirky ponies, this is such a cute and fun thread idea!  :happy:

I'm glad you like the thread!  :blush: I hope to see more quirky ponies too!

Spa day sounds like something I need to do for a lot of my ponies...I started redoing hairdos on a few, but I need to give some of them a thorough bath :P

Snapdragon:

Pinkie pie's face in your signature matches the face I made when I saw your ponies! So many cutie pies!

They've all got so much personality, and I find myself giving them all little stories! I especially love the very 80s outfits, and I could see that punky pony in a band! Thank you so much for sharing! You take great photos!

Great Googly Moogly! That poor Starshine! :shocked:

Your Speedy reminds me of Clash Montgomery from Jem and the Holograms. :cool: She's so awesomely 80s punk!

What the heck happened to Moonstone and Bowtie? :blink:
