Title: Is it just me, or do ponies have a smell?
Post by: Mewtwofan1 on May 14, 2017, 08:18:50 PM
I've noticed with my g1 herd that almost all of the ponies have this smell. I have no idea what it is. I think it's the smell of30+ year old plastic. But whatever it is, I like it. It smells familiar to me and I don't know why. Do your ponies have a smell? Or is it just me, the crazy lunatic who just escaped the mental ward of the hospital. :lookround:

You can't explain why it's amazing. It just is.

They need a spray like the "New car smell" for cars.

Call it "New pony" room spray.

I'd buy it.

I could have sworn I did see someone selling a spray like that at one point?

Yes! There was a website that specifically sold a perfume that smelled like old ponies. I think it was a combo of vanilla and plasticisors.

Yeah they have a smell. I call it pool toy  plastic smell. It doesn't do anything for me nostalgically and I only prefer to sniff my ponies if they're scented. :biggrin:

I totally vote for pony smell, and I dislike most artificial smells.

Some of the scented ponies still have their scent too, I have 2 Sorbets that still have their smell and I like that too.

I can't really smell anything on mine, at least not anything more than plastic.

only my G1 ponies smell, i fall into heaven when i open my pony cabinets, its so amazing, i guess smells a little like bubble bath, it could be the very few scented ponies i have in my collection made them all smell great.
however my most favorite  is my mexican ponies, i can just sit there snorted them :lol:, maybe it comes from them.
 im sure i heard somewhere that some nirvana ponies vinyl is scented?? maybe someone can share a light on that fact.
or it could be a combination of hair shampoo and condition used over the years :heart:

I'm not surprised that people like the smell (I do, too; opening the box of ponies I had in my storage locker released a really therapeutic aroma) since it's so strongly tied to memory. Just picking up a pony takes me back to when I was a kid, playing with my ponies in Gran's garden, or fighting my cousin's Voltrons with a unicorn. hahaha

It's nostalgic, and comforting.

They have the best smell in the world! :D Sometimes when I open my ponybox the smell fills the room, and when I return to the room later it's still there. So I just stand there and inhale the goodness.

I vote for the unicorn, of course unless it was just being polite to that poor robot.

I have a pony somewhere that smells like crayon and I don't think it's a nirvana...mm I think it's a scented pony that has faded.

Now I have to get a Mexican pony cuz I didn't know those smell their own way...

Poor boy-toys stand no chance against the wrath of a sweetberry pony in Gusty's pose!
