Ohhh dear. I bought ten of these when I spotted them in Forbidden Planet, purely to trade them off as I've gone off the blind bags at the moment anyway. These are the wave 5 YELLOW bag blind-bag ponies with Luna, Celestia and Cadance as the special ponies.

I popped Junebug out first, and her hair paint is on her ears as well. Gently moving it with a nail, it sort of... glooped off her ears, but it stayed on her mane. The same happened with a Diamond Rose, who looks like they gave her pink hair in two-tone and then decided 'Buck it!' and slopped red-scarlet all over her instead.

I'm really dissapointed with these guys.

Yeah, I had three of mine that had paint slopped all over the place. It bothered me too. I've replaced two.
I know they're cheap but I don't think that should mean the quality goes down. But then we're all different, and maybe I'm just extra fussy sometimes^_^

I agree entirely; so many of the wave 5 I bought from Forbidden Planet have wonky eyes, scratched symbols, and Celestia looks to have a cross between a single pindot mould/tiny cigarette burn in her leg. At eleast half have paint splashes on them, too.
