Lol it is so hard picturing Decemeber and christmas in a blazing heat wave  Living in a country that's cold and snowy in oct-march and warm in april-september it's just so hard imagening it any other way >.< I can't say I envy you as I really don't like the heat, but happy sunfading

We're not having a christmastree this year as space is very limited around here at the moment due to renovations. I'm hoping it's all cleared out to next year because I really want a christmas tree! And I do prefer real ones. Nothing beats that christmas tree smell

Just wanna jump in and say I think the seller did mention it:
I went to take a big whiff of her candy scent, only to be greeted with the smell of cigarette smoke. (my fault for not noticing that part of the seller's description)
It's so easy to miss little things like that in descriptions in my experience, especially if it's a very long wall of text 
I do hope you manage to get her lovely scent back with any of these methods PWN-E 
I really did go back and look for literally 10 minutes and did not fin a single thing mentioning the smell. I didn't really want to point fingers at anyone right away but they really didn't and that makes me pretty miffed. I'm going to send them a mail when I get the chance to.
Thanks for the advice, everyone. I've been airing her out so far during the daytime but at night as soon as I go down to the grocery store and get some baking soda I'll keep her sealed up with some.
Ah, my bad. Guess I missunderstood your first post then. Good for you sending an e-mail pointing it out to them Loads of people are allergic and if they haven't thought about it before it would be a great pointer so they add that in future item descriptions.

I got mine in pretty much perfect condition years ago. Maybe she was indeed more common to come across years ago.
Right now I got a double from a lot, but aside from some minor issues she looks very nice. Very white, no discolouring or cancer.
So from my experience, no. She's not that hard to find in ok-good condition. But maybe I've just been lucky.

As others have mentioned fresh air is great to get smoke smell out of stuff. My mum loves rock-events and such, but alot of people smoke there and she always put her clothes out on the balcony to "air them out" and it really works. A day or so and the smokesmell is completely gone. That is for clothes at least. I never had to try it on ponies, but after reading the previous replys here it seems like it works on them aswell and I can't say I'm surprised as it does such wonders for clothes

Wow they look really lovely Unless they're doubles then I'd keep them if I were you  That being said I'm totaly jealous of Locket and Masqurade. I keep hunting those two to replace mine that has some mold issues, but everyone I stumble across seem to have the same issues as mine. You're so lucky to have found them in such lovely condition

As other people mentioned here she does seem to have made a re-apperance in the stores. I've herd several reports here lately that they've found her in their local stores and on Amazon I believe. So I think she has been re-released That being said, it's your pony and you should do whatever you please with her. If you dont have any plans to sell her as she is anyway then I see no problem of costumizing her as she would be off limits to everyone anyway.

I got my Tutti Frutti brand new from the store when I was a child and I do remember she had a slight fruitty smell. I obviously had to go and sniff her now when I read this post but after about 2 decades of storage with other ponies she only smell like a pony - or well... plastic. Guess it faded away after all these years. I also remember Lemond Drop had a lemony smell like you said The_Loner I got her aswell brand new from the store as a kid, but as it's the same deal with her - 2 decades in storage with other ponies - I'm betting she doesn't smell much either anymore

I would try and get more show characters added into the brushable toyline. Such as Big Mac, Granny Smith, The Cakes family, Silverspoon and Diamond Tiara and so forth. Also some of the more regular background ponies. I would also make sure there were more fun playsets. Canterlot Castle, Twilights Library, The Cakes Shop, Sweet Apple Farm and so on. And when I say playsets I do mean full, proper playsets like in the G1 line. Not just a halfdone front of a building. Other than that I'm pretty content with the line so far

Oh I have to pick one?  Hmm... Well I can pick one of each generation, but it's gonna be hard for me to narrow it down more than that G1 - Truly G2 - Silver Swirl G3 - Desert Rose G3.5 - Toola Roola G4 - Pinkie Pie

And I thought the shipping charges were bad!
Lol amen to that. Their international shipping prices are horrid. And now THIS  I sincerely hope it's a misstake on their part or they've just gone completely mad.
