I recently found a Spring Fluttershy at a walmart, and she smelt like burnt rubber when I opened her. x_X Literally had to air out our car, it smelt awful. It could be the fact that she's been in a bubble for a little less than 2 years, but I've had to debox G1s when the packaging was so messed up they looked better out of it, and the smell was only a little musty, far from burnt rubber. x-x
