How many G1 sets are made in HK and in China?
« on: January 28, 2018, 04:41:49 AM »
As the thread title suggests. I know there are a lot with two versions but not all of them were available in both versions here as far as I can fathom, so thought I'd ask for a check.

I know the following
Summer Wings, Windy Wings? (I know these can also be NC)
Sweetberry (are there Chinese versions of Blueberry Baskets and Cranberry Muffins?)
Starlight Babies - also NC (can the Sparkle Babies also have Chinese versions?)
Brush and Grows (Chinese examples are rarer)
Sundae Best (can also be NC)

Others??

Two more that I have are Tux n Tails and Baby Cuddles (who is also a strange shade of blue instead of green) who are both Made in China and came to me from the same Australian ebay lot. My normal ones are Hong Kong.

I have a 'China' & 'Hong Kong' kiss curl (both the version with pink curls and green bows)
Presuming that is what mean, unless i'm reading this wrong  :P

I had forgotten Kiss Curl. That's a UK person fail for me ;) you're right. There are also symbol variations with KC which don't necessarily correlate to the HK and China thing. Thanks for poking up that one, you're absolutely right. And yes, that is what I'm asking xD.

I had also forgotten about Tux. Baby Cuddles I had heard about but not seen. I also have packaging that says made in Spain for her but in those cases the pony is always HK marked as far as I can gather.

What about TAF babies? I can't remember offhand what mine are.

Reason for my asking is that I am trying to figure out exactly how many mainstream ponies have known variations like this because it comes up from time to time but never seems to get properly pinned down...

Yeah. That's sort of the next question on my list, to be honest. How many of these have variations within that one manufacture. KC is definitely one of those. I don't actually remember what my one is with the reversed symbol because she's at home and I'm not, but I have only ever had the one.

I know there are Chinese and HK made Sweetberry Ponies (at least Cherry Treats) with forelocks and Chinese ones without forelocks. But the more I look into this stuff, the more variations seem to appear.

It's like even among the Chinese made Pocket Ponies, you'll find some with dark purple and some with blue hair...and some with fading pink and some with bubblegum pink too...

I think baby Tiddlywinks may be one? Not 100% sure on that though.

I don't have many doubles of ponies anymore mainly wingers and teeny tinies (although most of those are packed away atm). Wingers you already know about, looking at the tts i have out they are all 'China'

I know there are variations in some of the glow n shows... Whether they are 'China' and 'hong kong' im not sure (my 3 are all 'china' (i have happy, star and bright)

Definitely on the Glowing Magics. I think I have three Dazzleglows, two maybe three Starglows, need to compare my sister's to one of mine :/ and I think my sister and I each have a different Happyglow and a different Brightglow, although her Brightglow is mostly wrecked so it's hard to tell. And there are probably others out there. But like you I think they're all China.

...I hadn't thought of the teenies. Will have to check them when I go home as there are definite variations in some of those.

I have one set that's mine, one that I think my sister and I technically have one each but are in my custody....not sure about my sister's set. They may be in storage I think. I can't remember if I have them myself or not. But four is better than none to start out with...

I want at some point to create a proper pony checklist including all these variations but the more I think about it, the more problematic I think it is going to be.

I went through my ponies once and added all the hoof info to an excel file :) I'm weird like that. There might be others of course but this is what I have:

Yeah there are a lot of variations. Whether ponies are marked 'china' 'hong kong' etc might be easier than variation lists.
I am sure there are lots of variations in my wingers, some might just be factory errors though.

Handy list chrissytree   :biggrin:
