No not at all! I hope only i remember it correctly...i was 6/7 years old then!
I think those fakies came around the same time the first MLP showed up at the stores here in Holland. Because i know my parents wouldn't bought expensive toys right the minute when they came out. I know i asked and asked a pony for weeks...and got the white with blue hair...and a couple of month's later my very first pony, SkyDancer, when i was at the hospital for surgery....
I really really wish i found one with the blue hair someday myself.... Or just better...my childhood herd from my aunts verry messy attic!! I think i'm gonna ask if i can search for them myself....but that's another story for another tread on the Arena!! ;-)
