It looks ok in the shop, or for a special edition one off type of pony.... but normal releases? nope. I keep most of my G4 / G4.5 MOC these days for displaying ( although I still prefer my G1 and G3 loose and for photoshoots) , and the card with plastic bubble was easy to display. These will take up waaay more space. I don't like all that plastic on this packaging... actually as a collector I don't really like any of the new packaging in this thread TBH I suppose it would be ok to get one pony (say you have a Twilight army or something) in it, or if you were giving one was a gift to someone it looks ok, or if you debox it isn';t too bad- well apart from all that extra plastic to get rid of.. Just a teeny complaint - I'd rather not have real people on my MLP pony packaging.
I get that maybe they're convincing the Target Audience that yes you too can be like this girl and hold this pony - a type of identity marketing, but I'd rather it wasn't there myself.
Totally agree with you I really don't like real peeps on my pony packaging either. Ok I know they used to do it with G1 playsets, but that didn't bother me when I was a kid and deboxing to play with them. Plus both genders collect/play with MLP so advertising them as a "girl" toy ... no that doesn't really work- Hasbro know they have a lot of boys who are into MLP now so why do this??!!!

I already have a lot of my ultimate grails like Chief and Ringlets MOC/MIB , Punzie, the Greek sitting ponies , Brazil sitting bow tie , the nirvana ponies in my fave pose , and others... wow this is becoming a list..!! (not that I'm not adding new ones of course - there are still a lot I'd like!!! ) I think at the moment though I'd most like Dutch baby Cat I'm a bit of a crazy cat lady (can you be a married crazy cat lady? ... well I am anyways ) so not having her in my collection is a total fail!! I seem to miss her whenever she comes up for sale.

Thanks for the update Desert Rose . I'm happy that the seller is working with you, but it's also good to know that you have more options with Swedish post and Paypal. I'm still hoping your pony shows up . Royal Mail messed up with a grail pony I bought some years back from another international member here , but thankfully my seller worked things out with me no problem - and after being lost for a few months in the post my pony did eventually get sent back to the seller. She posted it back to me and it arrived safely next time

I've been following this transaction as you know, I just haven't posted until now. I'm hoping that after all this your seller is going to keep her word and work with you to sort it out . Have you heard anything since last time you posted? There is still a chance that the pony will turn up with one of you eventually too.

Yay!! I don't specifically look for factory errors but I do like them and if I see one I'll buy it . I have a few including a Milkyway from childhood who has glitter stars on her body and painted stars with a bit of glitter on them on her head. I have reverse baby candy, and various eye and symbol factory errors. I love any little variations, they're fun! I love comparing my army ponies and checking for them actually.... hmm pics? somewhere in my photobucket.... it's not very organized ATM

What happened with this in the end?
I was wondering the same thing did everything work out ok or did you decide not to go through with it?

I collect all gens including G4 although that was never my fave (due to the body proportions - although G4 has the best show) . My focus is always more on G1 followed by G3, but I do have quite a lot of G4 too and I haven't given up collecting them. I have more of the early/rare release ones because I mostly don't bother with duplicate mane 6 anymore. If I see a new character then I'll get it (especially boys) , so I still check toy aisles hoping to find one . It's been a tough line to collect in the Uk
