Post by: reanna-mator on June 30, 2012, 05:02:20 PM: I was at (I think) Dollar Tree too, and they have thinner G4 coloring books that have stickers inside! I don't know if they've been around a while but it was the first time I saw them.

I've got the blue fakie! I couldn't resist because of how plain silly and odd it looked! I call mine "Blue Horse from Mars," if anyone out there is an Eddie Izzard fan. :P

I don't know what is up with the quality control on them, but they smell like chemical and they break in half way too easily. Not to mention that when they fall apart, their hair starts to come out.

If you do take them out, BE CAREFUL. They are fragile.

thanks for the warning! i looked closer and i can tell just by looking, that the purple one is already starting to crack open a bit o_o
its not even out of the box yet!

Post by: Rachel-Eyes on June 30, 2012, 09:28:48 PM: The purple and green ones were among the first ponies that I ever bought for my collection. (I started off saying I just wanted the fakies because I had fallen in love with them, and then came the "okay, maybe some Sea Ponies." 250 ponies later, I have a huge variety, Hasbro and non.)

So being quite new to the whole thing, I decided to debox them and glue them together, not really expecting anything. The moment I took them out, their hair started falling out in chunks, because it is only connected by the seam in their backs, not rooted.

I recently got the blue one as a gift from some coworkers, and I ended up leaving her in the box for display! I don't want another fiasco like that again!

That said, they really are cute! They remind me of old lady ponies who sit in the garden drinking tea and complaining about today's youngin's. :p I think they are quite adorable.
