Ponies/Barbie/Hair Group/Dream/Algae Man

So, I was wondering what was going on with the My Little Pony line. They were clearing out the older ones but not getting anything new in. Then, yesterday when I was at walmart....I saw them.
 
 
Granted, that's a styling pony but all the new ponies I saw were that style! They may be cute but they should't replace the old ones! O_o;
 
This blank MLP would make a near collectable but I can't imagine actually customizing it. If I want wanna customize a pony I'd use one that was made by the thosands.
 
I also saw the new Pink World Barbie dolls. I LOVE that they have brought back Skipper and Stacie but I don't like their facial screening.
 
Egads, people. I LOVE seeing new photos in the doll hair group. It makes me super excited! But people need to read the rules. 
 
"About RD & DH Doll Hair Color Reference

Choosing a new hair color for a reroot online can be hard, particularly if you're trying to match a particular shade. Is the green dark enough? Is the auburn red enough? It helps to have multiple photos of a color in use so you can get a better idea of if it's right for you.
This group is meant to cover the hair sold by Dolly Hair and Restore Doll ("Katsilk"). UK-based My Little Customs will also be inculded as they carry most of the colors that DH and RD carry (combined) and use most of the same names.

1. If you add a photo, you MUST list the color name in the description, as well as which site you got it from. "Restore Doll's Caddy Red" "Violet Iris from Dolly Hair" etc. This will cut down on confusion.

2. Add no more than 3 photos of a project to this group. Just to keep the pages from getting too full of one color. If someone is interessted in seeing more they will totally follow the pictures back to your photostream to see more. :D

3. If possible, try to add the photos that show the colors closest to what they look like in person.

4. Unrooted hanks are fine too."

 
 It's on the front page and it even says them when you sign up, I believe. BUT I'm still getting folks uploading stock dolls or dolls rooted with hair they can't identify. There are plenty of groups for those pictures, I started RD & DH Doll Hair Color Reference because there wasn't anything that was that specific. And we NEED to be specific. The group isn't even really about the dolls when you think about it, it's about the hair. It makes a great springboard to show off a doll, but in the end it's a reference group to help customizers choose hair.
 
I'm pretty loose with the rules since I want to put group growth above being a hardass. I'll go in and add a keyword or request use of a photo while wording it so extra info is there. But If the photo as absolutly no place in the group, I have to delete it.
 
I had a dream this doll collector wanted me to buy their MSD Ken for $250. He was complete but he had chipping around his wrists and ankles. I passed because I didn't want a MSD and she was awful disapointed. I wonder if I should have bought him. I probably could have fixed him with tinted Milliput....maybe it wouldn't have been a bad deal?
