Please don't bait the G1 Bubbles (sitting down yellow pony)! Other than that, all I know is the G3 Thistle Whistle (blue pegasus pony) is pretty sought-after if she is the scented version (does she smell like coconut?). I sold my scented Thistle Whistle several years ago for $15.

You might try selling the G1s- Firefly gets a good price these days, as does Bubbles (sitting pony) 
- The rest probably wouldn't fetch more than $4-$5 a piece.  It might be helpful to look up their names on strawberryreef.com- and then check out "sold" G1 my little pony on ebay - to give you an idea of their value.  Might also check out the Classified section- to see what other Arena peeps are selling them for.

Honestly I think you can safely bait any of the G3s that have problems-  you probably could sell the hard to find ones, but it may or may not be worth your while.   If they have stains/vds and/or haircuts I'd say definitely bait the G3s- but of course lots of people have different opinions.

Thanks everyone! I might be selling some of these now then! lol and that bubbles one for sure, as soon as I figure out a price. ebay is so mixed price wise :-/

you guys are great! i'm glad I checked before hand! the ones I've already made were in the worse condition b/c it was easier to mod them lol. I think one had bite marks on it's leg...

As long as they are your ponies you can pretty much do as you please of course :) Honestly I dont see anyone particularly hard to find there although some may be less common than others that is certainly true. However, no one runs to super expensive prices. As you say while in the pictures they may look recoverable if they all have significant issues then what looks like an easy fix may not be and therefore what we are judging as a restorable pony could perhaps be past the point of no return :P [for some collectors anyway].

If you are worried you can try trading some of the ponies you have for ponies which are completely bait - that may mean you can get more baits and people who wish to try and restore your ponies can have that chance.

Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

I decided to keep some and put some of the others up for sale on here. I would hate to mod one and it be on someones want list even in any condition. I figure if no one buys them or offers to trade i'll eventually mod them *shrug* but at least I'm giving people a chance to grab them. I'm hoping ppl offer fair prices but I'll keep what y'all said in mind lol (I looked up some of the other prices too)

might want to check diva pose Pinkie Pie for the double hoof heart.
She's an oddity that collectors (like me) are looking for.

she only has one blue heart, too bad. I still haven't fully identified her though, I am not sure which pinkie pie she is

I just noticed Pinkie Pie's charm around her neck. She is the second release single.

Mint Dreams!!!!  Definitely don't bait her!  And Bubbles! 

Crazy hair just needs conditioning and salon time.  Random marks come off with sunfading.  I don't see a single pony in there that actually is "bait"!
