I am discovering that I simply cannot display all of my wonderful ponies at once , so I must put some in storage. However, I was wondering how I would go about storing them correctly. Thanks for your help!

Didn't think of that. What about paper bags? Would that make any difference?Wrapped in with tissue in a cool, dry, dim, place. Be careful with bags as they can trap moisture.
If they're white. Any color can transfer with time.Didn't think of that. What about paper bags? Would that make any difference?
Thank you! Is it ok to put tape on the tissue paper to keep it closed? Or should I just have the tissue paper?I strongly advise against sealed zip-top / ZipLock bags, as they trap moisture in with the pony and can lead to problems like mold and rust. If you're going to use plastic baggies, make sure they are clear (as Tak mentioned, any colored anything has the potential to transfer onto / stain a pony permanently) and that you leave a little bit open at the top for air to circulate and stay fresh.
If you're going to use tissue paper, I suggest acid-free / archival tissue paper or white tissue.
Also, don’t use coloured tissue paper as it can transfer onto ponies. I’ve gotten ponies shipped with cute coloured paper and it stained my ponies.Thank you! Is it ok to put tape on the tissue paper to keep it closed? Or should I just have the tissue paper?
