5 and 10 Find!

I was at the old 5 and 10 today and I figured I'd walk down the toy aisle to see how much the G4s were, and I came across this:

MIB G3 Scootaloo!!!
I was pretty surprised, and bought her. She must have been used as a window display. Obviously the box is pretty faded, but I'm not sure if the scooter is or not. I don't think Scootaloo is faded, and her mane and tail are safely tucked behind her, so no fading there. I've seen the scooter in multiple colors; the picture on the back has totally different colors. Do any of you know if it's faded? I'm not sure if I'm going to sell her yet, but if anyone knows anything it would be appreciated. I'm still pretty excited I found her for sale in a store. I asked the clerk if she had any more like her, but she said this was the last one.

Thanks! I'm still kind of excited. But I just remembered I forgot to check the price on the G4s I was so distracted lol. But actually they have a better G4 selection at that old place than in other places I visit. I'll have to go back there more often. It's pretty cool what you can find in these neighborhood places that have been there forever.

I'm still rather torn about what to do with her. I figured I'd sell her, since I never cared much for Scootaloo, but she's such a cool find she's growing on me. The only thing is I know if I keep her I have to get her out of that unsightly box, so there goes the MIB. Then again I don't know if anyone would want that box. Not to mention my sister wants her. She likes to unbox all her ponies because she likes to style them and display them that way. But then again my sister treats her ponies like bars of solid gold - no - platinum, so I know Scootaloo would be near mint forever. My sister sometimes even tried to keep me from touching my own ponies when we were little. Anyway, I have no idea what to do with her. My excuse to myself for keeping her is I might want to wait until the G3 market becomes more favorable again. *sigh*

I'd unbox her too, I have a really hard time keeping stuff in its packaging unless I know it will be worth LOTS later.
That is a really cool find though, can you drive her around on the floor with that remote control?

As far as I know she still drives, but I didn't unbox her yet so I haven't tried it out. That's another temptation . . .

Don't worry about it, I'm closer to taking her out of the box now because nobody would want that ugly faded thing. And if I decided to sell her, she'd still be near mint.

That's a cool find. Congrats on your new girl. If you take her out, you should take a pic of her on the go!
