Advice needed. decision made
« on: November 06, 2012, 10:01:44 AM »
I only have one boxed G2 mlp in very good condition but it is just screaming at me to open it.

I have very little knowledge of g2 so I was wondering what you would do???

Personally I am thinking along the lines of it she is worth anything just to leave her in there but if she is fairly common to crack her open. but I don't just want to open her as i can obviously not just put her back in and factory seal it again.

Please help......

I dunno. She is an exclusive not sold in the US. You probably wouldn't drop her value more than $20 by opening her but I don't know her exact value.

NOOOOOOOOOoooooooOOOO!  *runs toward cyberunicorn*  Don't open!  If you want some loose G2s (including Tender Nuzzles there) or a MIP US release, I'd be happy to trade you for that gorgeous MIP one!
She's a UK release G2 and although I don't know that she is necessarily "uncommon,"  we here in the states didn't get very many G2s so there are plenty of us that would like to have her in the package!

It is your pony to do with what you would like, but, as I said, I or any other number of collectors would be willing to trade you!

I personally would not unbox her, and trade her for a loose one if you want one loose. I've never seen a Tender Nuzzles with accessories either as they're small and tend to get lost.

Tender Nuzzles is a fairly rare G2 and she was not sold in the US.

I'm with Aadra310!!!  PLEASE DO NOT OPEN!  :faint:  There are plenty of people here in the States that would pay very well for her MOC, me included!!!  Just try to avoid the temptation!  :P

I doubt it'd be hard to trade for a loose one :)

She's yours, so I guess it's up to you. I know if I got a mib, I would trade it for a mine loose one, because I would rip it open.  :P

She is your pony...for you to decide what to do with :)

I know some people may recommend trading her for a loose one but I understand that sometimes its not as easy as that - I have been trying to trade MIB Good Weather for a complete Good Weather for 6 years. :P Sometimes when ponies have illusive accessories its not as easy as tracking down a straight out trade.

So I guess perhaps some of it comes down to - do you just want the pony or do you want all the accessories as well? If the former, I would trade your MOC for a loose one [plus some extra ponies]. If the latter then I actually understand the frustration as trading will take longer. 
 
Perhaps however if you are uncertain the best idea would be to either put her aside for the moment or at the very least post a for trade post looking to see if anyone has any loose and complete Tender Nuzzles to trade. But think about it carefully and don't rush into it as once she is open there is no going back.

MOC she maybe is around the $20-22 mark. Loose and complete she is going to be $12. Loose by herself $5-6.

so decision made..........i opened her....................................
















......................... no  only kidding I was in two minds as I said in my original post but as the general consensus is to leave her alone in the packaging then there she shall stay. eventually if the temptation is to much I will see about trading her in for an already opened one. (it will be good practice for me in self control) I have actually found two more g2s in there package on ebay last night so when they get here all three of them can sit together with the three or four that I actually have loose. one of them is actually from the same set (not sure if that is the correct term) as she is so will go together nicely. I have put the auction pictures below if you are interested.

hahaha you nearly gave me a heart attack :P
I generally prefer ponies loose, but just looking at you gorgeous MoC G2s I think I prefer at least G2 in their package :)
