I have one that's a bit of a mystery. My starshine has an extra long forelock. And by that, I mean that she has extra hairholes, filled and glued with hair (that is the same length as the rest of her hair) , going down her face, almost all the way down to her nose. I can only assume that this was a factory error of some sort, and they just went with it and sold her anyway. I mean, I'd certainly be surprised if it turned out a child was somehow responsible xD

(It's a bit hard to see, but it's my only picture of her and all my ponies are in storage at the moment)

My Starshine is kind of like that, too; maybe it's not down quite as far towards her nose as yours, but enough that I noticed it back when I got her and thought it was odd. It's definitely past her eyes. I wonder if they are from the same batch!

No pic yet but my Argie Minty over did it with the eyeliner on one side. Thicker on the dark outline around her iris too on that side.

The articulated Rainbow Dash I'm customizing has a hole under her tail 😳

Oh, that reminds me of my Rosette. Her hair is rooted really far down her nose.

The first one that comes to mind I am lazy and will get a picture if asked but I *just* got out of bed and I'm content to stay here. Anyway. Like, two Christmases ago I was at Ollies and they had boxes and boxes of the Crystal Empire princess pack with Twilight/RD and Cadance/AJ but they were, like, fake looking? The back of the boxes looked like it used a copier to print and the ponies themselves look very fishy. I wasn't gonna buy them but I found a package with Twilight Sparkle who looks like she swallowed a bee! Her nose is inflated. It's so funny.

The one I did get a picture of is this Fluttershy who looks like she's making a ":3" mouth.

The hair on my Streaky pony is discolored and sort of rough and frizzy. The tail feels almost chunky at the very front. It feels sort of weird. Maybe she needs a brushing, but I don't have a pony brush. Gusty is in pretty good condition for her age. She is a little yellow and her symbol is a bit faded, but she is in better condition than Streaky. That is odd since she is older.

I've never heard of discolored hair on Streaky before, do you mean faded? Her mane and tail do have the infamous fading pink. As for the texture, you can fix it! Even if you don't have a pony brush, you could use a clean human comb or something.

I have a tried-tested technique to consider: First, rinse her mane and tail, then lather them in shampoo or conditioner. Once that's settled in, turn your flat iron onto its first or second lowest heat setting (I use a Conair at "5"). While that's warming up, use your brush/comb to section out her mane into small bunches. Finally, pull those through the flat-iron at a brisk pace several times until they appear softer/smoother! You can re-style her curls if desired while her mane and tail are still wet. :biggrin:

Does that mean that technically she has facial hair?

I love oddball ponies. I have a Magic Hat with no symbols at all. Whether this was done intentionally by a previous owner I don't know, but I love her like that. I also have a couple of baby ponies who's manes continue up the backs of an ear. And my SS Lofty has a tail which is so offset from centre it looks like she has a side pony.

Then I have 2 ponies with differently coloured symbols, as in part of the symbol on the one side is a different colour to the other. The shades on the ponies match each other though, even though they are not the same pony. I believe they came in the same set though, which is the type of thing which interests me.

I don't have a huge collection, but the only major flaw I have is my Moondancer has a strange bubble in her vinyl on one of her hooves (I've posted her on here before asking about it and what I should do).

I have a Sundance with no symbol.
I am not sure if she ever had one that got removed somehow, or she didn't. It's a bit of a mystery as she's otherwise in great condition, still has her curl, and there's no sign of a symbol on her flank on either side. But...yeah. O.o.

This is a horrible picture that's pixellated but I haven't got a better one right now.

She came from a carboot sale. I kept her because she was odd.


Oh now, I have not see this before! I wish she could tell us her story.

I'm almost positive that her symbols were worn off, personally. I've seen online listings of other Magic Message ponies with very rubbed symbols, destroyed to the point they resembled badly-torn stickers. They're super delicate for non-glittered symbols because of their gimmicky properties, and occasionally, I've seen Magic Message ponies with nearly no traces of their symbols remaining.
