So, as we all know over the years a pony’s plastic deteriorates and discolours.
Today I was looking through my FB Market Place and found a new in box Pirate RD Flip and Whirl (or whatever is called). And was kind of triggered that her plastic has already discoloured so much.
Do I still want her, yes. I’m a crazy pony collector so naturally yes I want to have this mib mainly because these gals, for some reason, are always coloured on or hair is too much to save or stickers are gone. BUT I am so irritated that there’s already so much discolouration on a toy that not even 2 years old yet.
It brings me back to how the 35th Anniversary ponies, and how people are seeing issues with them already too.
You would think that this day, with all the technology at our finger tips. Toy companies could figure out how to prevent this from happening on a toy that hasn’t had a long shelf life yet. For serious. So frustrating.
