I just bought my very first ever "mini" figure. The little blind bag sized ones. I got Pinkie Pie dressed up as a present, wearing flippers. I can't figure out how to get that balloon to fit on her head! Is there a right way to do it? Or was it just designed as a cute thing that isn't really supposed to work? Ugh!

Please post some pics and show me how it is supposed to be?

I don't have her myself but I was curious so I found a YouTube review...

At 2:30 they start dressing her. Looks like you just gotta 'make it work' and jam it on her forehead in front of her hair?

That's a good question.  I tried a few ways to get it to work.

This is the way I would have expected it to go on, but it doesn't work particularly well:

This way works better:

And this is probably the most stable but still looks rather awkward:

Wow I just got her today and havent taken her out of the package yet...a symptom of walking home a flat tire after work, totally forgot she's among the 40 pounds of groceries in my backpack...thanks for the reminder!

I assumed the balloons go in the hole in her tail and thought the one shown above on her head is a float to go around her body instead of the present...I will investigate immediately!

To be fair, I've worn balloon hats and they don't look good on my head, either. Maybe they're just awkward no matter what?
Thanks so much to Calico_Star for her beautiful work on my Avatar!

Balloon hats will unfortunately never make it as a mainstream fashion. ;p

Mine stays on pretty well as in Breyer600's first picture, on her forehead. For me it's her flippers (one especially) which have a tendency to pop off!
