Oh man, I didn't know some of the ribbons could stain too :(

So... the scented Rainbows could discolour, Surprise's hair can stain, and the pink ribbons can stain too... are there any other issues w/ Basic Funs?

IDK if it's being kept in a box, or if it just happens to them naturally, but there seems to be an issue with some Gustys whose heads start yellowing, or going off-white, and it causes head-body mismatch. No clue how or why, but it happened to someone I follow on IG! She was very sad! I also imagine the second-year Rainbows could have a potential to stain, didn't they use that Surprise shade of yellow-green in their hair too? Or is that a thing? :P

Unboxed! I've only got two though and I don't have room for boxes so I prefer to get ponies loose. I feel sorry for them trapped inside the boxes, even though it means righting off the value for my pension by unboxing(!).

I keep mine in their boxes because I like the box designs, and it helps keeping them distinct from my vintage ponies (I mean, not that I wouldn't be able to tell the difference, but I like how that clearly sets them apart). Also, I'm lazy :P
They take up a lot of room but I only buy the ones I particularly like. So far that's five ponies: Bubbles, Seashell (because those two have always eluded me), Gusty (an army pony), Surprise (got her together with Gusty, no reason except I couldn't resist the pristine white), and Stranger Things Applejack.

I have all my ponies unboxed now. I swear my pony room is even more super-scented. It smells mainly like pancakes and maple syrup even if its just supposed to be vanilla lol

I've opened every one I've bought. Toys are playthings, not paintings.

Been doing that myself now. Honestly loving having them out. Do appreciate that they have a hoof that has Basic Fun stamped on the underside.  :) Zero chance of being able to mix them up with original ones that way.

YES! It's funny how much the pony room has a pancake and maple syrup smell wafting around in there now. Didn't expect that. Nice that the smell is lessening some though because gracious was it overpowering at first. My allergies were not amused by it.
