Pony Corral / Re: Flaws you can't stand
« on: June 05, 2017, 01:03:19 PM »
I don't care for head body mismatch in G1s.  I don't care for haircuts, marker, mold and symbol rubs.  The worst for me though  is cat pee.  When a pony arrives covered in cat pee nothing helps it.  Argh

My Munchy arrived covered in cat wee (to my horror) and filled with brown slimy stuff inside. I gave her several Vanish baths - I think the overseas equivalent is Oxiclean? And scrubbed her hair with shampoo and left conditioner in to soak several times. She also sat on the shelf for a few weeks. There is no smell left now.

As to flaws: I don't like anything I can't fix or hide. So major head/body mismatch. Regrind. Highlighter marks. Symbol rust. Pony Cancer. And suchlike. I also prefer my ponies to be as near original as possible, so no rehairs or repainting of symbols for me please. However, if a pony has been rehaired or repainted in an alternate colour scheme then I might be interested. Rather make it obvious that this is not the original pony if that makes sense?

I love this thread!  :inlove:

Here is my contribution:

Munchy is lying on the floor because she arrived covered in cat wee. True.

First pony I have ever received that has had an immediate Spa Day. Inside she was full of some brown slimy stuff:

And here she is now:

That is a donor tail she is wearing there from a poor Cherries Jubilee that had been chomped up by a dog. Cherries is still with me, but now she is a Spring pony called Cherry Blossom and is sporting a whole new Look. My first attempt at customisation, which I might one day be brave enough to show in the correct forum.

There is one thing that bugs me about Hasbro in the G1 line: Why did they release different ponies with the same name? Take Bright Eyes as a random example. Could they not have thought up a new name for the new pony? I mean, really? Grrrr.

June is my birth month, of course I need her: both versions  :biggrin:

Other than that she is a really lovely pony, that I would very much like to join my herd one day. Will probably have to import her though: in SA you generally buy what there is on sale as there isn't much of a selection. Oh boy are ponies hard to find here (feeling sorry for self *sobsob*)

Thank you so much Brightglowpony  :)  I love living in SA, it is beautiful and I love the people.   

I agree that the people and cultures make SA extra special.  I was there this time last year and can't wait to go back.  Hope to see you around the forums!  :)

Absolutely! I am loving this - there don't seem to be many mlp collectors in SA yet and I have been craving information. There is just so much on here and everyone has been SO friendly and helpful  :biggrin:

That is so much cooler than the spider nest I found in mine.

Eeeeek!!! Dare I ask... was it complete with spider?  :shocked:

Was the head loose? A child might have put that in it.

No, it was still glued on  :)

Thank you everyone for your help and input, I really appreciate it! It would be great if we could find out what the 'scribble' means  :). I put the paper back into Gusty once she was completely dry; it seemed to be the right thing to do. It is hers after all.

perhaps a note from the factory? wish i could help you out more, but maybe you can find out what it says.

I am hoping that someone on the Arena might be able to help with that at the very least: I certainly can't read it  ;)
