I voted for cut hair. Most of the other things don't really bother me too much. In fact, I would say that I prefer mankier ponies. I love that "played with" look to them. However, I'm not too big in hair cuts. I'm not really into rehairing unless I am making a custom, so seeing ponies with mohawks annoys me. I guess maybe because I was taught not to mangle my toys like that. Not that having cut hair will stop me from rescuing a pony into my beat up herd. lol
 
The smell of smoke... I just got a bait that reeks of smoke and I hate it to no end..
 
any kind of bad hair!
i dont mind ink or cancer or even chew marks
but hte HAIR is the deal breaker for me.
i think i would prefer a slight hair cut over frizzy hair...
gotta be silky shiny and smoth!

I'm not fond of anything I can't fix, which is not much, but I can't fix it when the plastic of a pony's head is different than the plastic of a pony's body and has faded or discolored differently.

I can fix frizzy hair, cut hair, faded hair, and most marks, but not chemical changes in the plastic itself.
 
I voted for rubbed symbols/eyes. I HATE that. Mainly because I'm not good at repainting symbols. ^^; As for the rest of them, I mind those too, accept for cut hair, I actually LIKE when a pony has cut hair, it gives them character and makes them unique.

YES! I'm with ya on this one. I can't stand smoke smell.

And I agree with Skip, my most hated flaw is discolored head/body... If a ponies head is slightly off color from her body I will not buy it.

*I love to rehair* so cut hair isn't a huge issue with me... but I don't like re-pinking!!!
So any faded colors, I stay away from.
 
Cut hair, chew marks, and cancer are the worst of my pony pet peeves. I know that you can re-hair a pony, but I don't know how, and cancer cannot be fixed. Anything else on that list can be fixed to an extent, but these I'm not so sure about.
 
Chew marks, cut hair, cancer, and pindot mold are my pony pet peeves.
 
The only pony flaws that really bother me are missing tails, missing ears, or haircuts that are REALLY bad. Basically anything that makes the pony incomplete. I could care less about teeth marks or anything that makes the pony "not display right".
 
Frizzy hair and Cancer bug me. There have been quite a few times were I got a perfectly great pony, but either the hair was frizzy or it had cancer spots- yuck!
 
Pony cancer, age spots, anything that appears to be some sort of mold. It freaks me out and I get scared that its going to spread so I quarantine the poor pony :(
 
I love all ponies regardless of faults! Really, I love getting a lot of ponies that need a little TLC. That way I can fix them up or if all else fails, show them the love they deserve even though they are less than perfect. In fact, most of my ponies have one or more of the mentioned flaws.

I'm with you on this... I'm exactly the same :oops: I've never been a very picky collector.

But in the end I settled on cancer being the worst.
 
Frizzy hair bugs me the most! It's so easily fixable it bugs me that the ponies got frizzy in the first place. ;)

I detest pindot mold with a passion but I can't really control that, or cancer or regrind, so I just do my best to get rid and live with it.

I too love a pony in need of tlc, and buy a restoration project where possible as opposed to a mint pony. :D
 
Greasy/dirty hair... it makes me so mad! Thrift store finds go straight into the tub :)
 
Cut hair and chew marks! If I don't have the pony I try to ignore those issues, keeping my eyes open if a better one appears.

What really get on my nerves? MISSING FLOCK for the So Soft ponies!!!

And with G4: head and body mismatch! How is it possible to have those obvious flaws?!
 
I really really do not like damage to the eyes. I rather have anything else then an eye problem.
it seems to me ponies are all about the eyes so i would prefer them to be perfect. however if i do not have the pony at all and my only chance of getting her is with an eye scratch then ok will will take her but as soon as i get an upgrade she is gone
 
Head body mismatch is really starting to bug me. I can live with it on the G2s and G4s where it's common as dirt and you don't really have a choice, but it bugs me so bad on G1s.
