She's so cute and quite a chimera of different wingers.

I wonder if she belongs to the same family as the UK Princess Variants and Flutters?

I've seen wingers with the wrong wings before, but never one quite so mismatched!

She's a little mystery that's for sure.

Love pkw xxx



Since the factory left over flutters has been found packed in Winger boxes, I think that is a good theory! :O It would make kind of sense! 

She is very cute! ^_^

Wow, this is a pretty cool find! And the fact that a mix-up like this is not only possible, but supported by what the factories actually resulted in doing is a nice piece of history. You must be proud to have her!

I admit, first thing I did was check the location of the poster. Being that it's a UK collector, and given the oddballs this country threw up (literally) at the end of line, I think that's what she probably is. She looks really pretty though :)

The weird flutters came in Windy Wing boxes. Strikes me that Franky B might have done so too, since she clearly has some Windy Wing bits in there.

That is such a cool oddity! Where did the pony come from according to the listing? (Like was it near the Hasbro factory or something?)

That is one crazy mixed up pony. I hope there aren't other wingers out there that have her parts on them XD

 :biggrin: she is indeed.

Very proud of this Little Franky Buzzer. It's great to find out a little bit of History about her (well I am guessing she is a factory Pic 'n' Mix/Mash-up anyway now  :lol:)
Her hair is in great condition too, most of my Buzzers have very dry hair (excluding a few).

I admit, first thing I did was check the location of the poster. Being that it's a UK collector, and given the oddballs this country threw up (literally) at the end of line, I think that's what she probably is. She looks really pretty though :)

Yeah I'm from the UK (Franky B came from a UK seller too). Yeah at least she is a Pretty Frankenstein  :lol:
Hmm yeah maybe she did come in a Windy Wing Box, (wonder if it was a winger she has no parts from either just to add to the randomness of her)


That is such a cool oddity! Where did the pony come from according to the listing? (Like was it near the Hasbro factory or something?)

That is one crazy mixed up pony. I hope there aren't other wingers out there that have her parts on them XD

Went back to look at the listing (I brought her in August) so all the details from the listing have gone including sellers exact location (just says UK now as they aren't selling anything) can't remember where in the UK she came from though have a feeling it was somewhere near me (so down south maybe south/east).

Yeah wonder what happened to Buzzers other parts.... perhaps they were never made though & they thought well ... mismatch pony it is then  :lol:


Whatever her story is.... I LOVE HER!  Congrats!
Exactly my thought when she arrived too :biggrin: was a great surprise when I received her. She is lovely whatever she turns out to be  ^.^

I found this thread from 2012 :)

Oh boy look at this poor girl! No mane, bless her and the wrong wings

http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,303814.0.html

I looked a little further in the thread and found Frankie B has a sister!!!

http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,303814.msg321397.html#msg321397

They were both from U.K. eBay too, it looks like they are breeding.........

Ooo there's 2 of her!  :lol:
I can safely say mine is not the exact same one as I see the one on that thread has a sort of bulge where it says 'China' on her foot.
Where as I just noticed mine has a little bulge where it says 'Made In' on her foot.

All 3 of these odd ball ones are 'China' ones (not sure about the Buzzer on Wiki, but I am going to guess it's China too :lol:)

Exciting! Now I want a Bald Winger too haha.

I love mixed up ponies the best.

Congrats on your unique find!  She's sweet and special and all those mixed up parts go together so nicely and I especially love her provenance of having been bought from the person who had her, just like she is, as a child.  Such good juju there!

If you get tired of her just let me know, even though that isn't going to happen.

I wonder if they got to the end of the line, and said just throw all the parts together.
I was thinking that or a Monday morning after a hard weekend pony or a last of the night on Friday pony.  Either way super cool!

Yeah her pic n mix parts seem to work nicely together, I brought another normal buzzer which arrived yesterday, she is sitting next to Franky B for now (my others are currently packed away waiting for a shelf ^.^) & the normal buzzer one looks like the weird one now as I am getting so used to Franky B  :lol:

Probably will be many many years until I get tired of her  ^.^

She could be the result of someones bad hangover I guess :lol: .... or maybe the day after Halloween ... they had Frankenstein on their mind!  :lol:
