I bought a large lot of ponies which included the saddest looking baby pony I've ever seen. Baby Blossom's hairline was completely split down each row so her hair was hanging out loose but still glued together in rows. Her whole skull was open. I had to do some extensive fimo moulding to connect her head back together then managed to rehair her but she can only ever wear her hair in stratigically placed pigtails to cover the clay. I eventually upgraded to a better one but haven't managed to find anyone willing to adopt her. I think I may move her to my desk so she can be appreciated for overcoming her traumatic former life.

I bought two glitter baby pones who were so full of rust they looked brown, two hours of scrubbing later they look brand new.

Worst was a pinkie pie who smelled of pee, I use enzyme cleaner on her, she is much better.

Sadly, neither of us have the skills to do stuff like that. So she's still in her rather creepy state. My sister has a whole box of rescues but she's probably the worst. I think she's missing part of a foot as well.

My worst one would probably be the last Bow Tie I got. She has really bad pony cancer, ingrained dirt, discolouration, and mane and tail rust.

She's completely discoloured from blue to an off-white-grey-blue colour, its hideous. Her mane and tail are a dirty pale pink and are completely orange from rust at the roots. Her legs are covered in ingrained dirt and she has pony cancer under her stomach, between her legs and up her neck.

I bought her in a bundle of 12 ponies. I only payed £5 for all of them, but shes the only one in this condition. All the others she came with are near mint. It makes me wonder what happened to her, haha!

(I would attach a photo but I still haven't figured out how -.-)

Poor Bow Tie! I can't imagine what could have happened to her; it sounds like she may as well have been left in a ditch somewhere or something.

The hardest one with the most extensive damage was Princess Pristina. I found her at a thrift shop and her hair has been completely cut off, mane and tail, and she was COVERED in glitter glue. It took a lot of elbow grease but I managed to get the thick layer of glitter glue off of here entirely and she also became my first rehair!
The grossest one was Peachy. I was, again, at a thrift shop and saw a "Snuzzle" on one of the shelves and was like "Score!" and snatched her up aND OMG MY FINGERS JUST SANK INTO HER. It was NOT Snuzzle. It was a Peachy that was just coated in some sort of mold slime. It was disgusting, but I bought her anyways (I just carried her by the hair after that) and cleaned her up. I kept her quarantined for a while to make sure the mold wasn't going to make a reappearance, but she turned out fine and she's still in my collection today.

I think I once got a bunch of ponies with gunk on them. They cleaned up well but one particular was never the same color. I forgot which or even if I kept them. I also once got a lot of ponies with all their heads glued on with superglue. :/

I once got a Peachy head in a lot.  Just the head.  Nothing else.

I had that happen with a Glittering Gem head. I have to admit that I used it for rehairing >.>.

Oh gosh! How to choose... I had Cherries who was rather chomped up. She was missing an ear and had been munched and crunched on her nose and rump.
Like so:

And Munchy, who was covered in cat pee, had frizzed cut hair, and was covered in brown slimy stuff inside.

They're both fine now. Munchy is completely restored and Cherries became my first custom.

Yes indeed: cat pee. It WAS a surprise when I opened the package. Which is why there is a photo of the head on the floor. I wasn't touching that any more than necessary.

Still not sure what was going on with this pony, but I got a Blossom in THIS condition in a bait lot once.

It wasn't washable, so the best thing I could do was complately paint over her. I think she's probably happy she can at least SEE again.
