My Little Ponies are toys that were played with, and many are old toys, so every seasoned collector expects condition flaws. However, there's just some issues (varying in severity) that seem bizarre, unusual, or even kinda funny. I wanted to share a few of my candidates for this topic, and hear from others about their experiences as well!
G1 Birthday Pony is in solid condition, but why are all of the magenta markings bled into her vinyl? The other symbols seem immaculate. This baffles me, although it seems others have this exact flaw from observing online listings.

G1 Twilight is bizarre. Her mane has this rough patch in the middle, and it didn't change at all with flat-iron treatment. Is it melted beyond hope from somebody else's poor style job, maybe...? What am I looking at?

G1 Princess Misty has... What IS this stain? I've never seen anything like it. Why is it just one random foot? It's not even on the bottom, as if she stood on something harmful.

G3 Tropical Delight is discolored, but it's a really odd crusty look isolated to part of her upper body. I don't think it has anything to do with the age of her plastic or exposure to sunlight... It's too different.

Please share any of your interesting or strange MLP flaws, regardless of the generation! If you're confused, adding photos might give somebody the opportunity to answer with a cause and possible solution as well.

I'm not sure if the photos will work since Flickr seems to have gotten worse, but these are my favorites.
I have a G4 blind bag Minty with a super misprinted eye and a G1 Twirler with a symbol that was printed super low. Misprints are my absolute favorite and I really want to track down more of them. Someone had a MIB G3 Rainbow Dash years ago that they messaged me about, but I couldn't afford her at the time. I would love to track something like that down again!
