It's sad that about a year ago the quality was waaaaaay worse for G4 ponies and they've actually improved a lot.

Quality Control? What's that?
Ah, I dunno. I don't expect much for a toy that's under $3. To be fair, there are a lot worse flaws out there. I believe G1s also suffered from neck hair.

I believe G1s also suffered from neck hair.See the thing here is that these toys are internationally released and what is a cheap less than $3 toy for you is an expensive more than $10 toy to me. I get the same crappy quality for triple the price. And with each wave coming out the prices are getting higher, as the same time quality is falling lower.

I feel your pain, but if they were lets say $10 in the states, then that means your price would be even higher. It doesn't change the fact that in Hasbro's eyes they are a cheap toy... And they are interested in making money, and cut corners to do so. I imagine if quality control was higher, it would be reflected in the base price. And then they would be a hard sell to consumers

My newest is Octavia and her plastic is the worst looking I've seen :/When I look at my G4s I find myself wanting to sell off all the newer ones cause they just don't look so nice. That would be from about Mrs. Cakes onwards, when they began with that new head mold.Neck hair never bothered me, it's plenty common even in G1s. Just snip and all is good
Most ponies that were mentioned earlier came out years ago. I have a vague memory of seeing them, but can't tell for sure since I wasn't that into G4 at the time (the first ponies I bought were wedding singles).
