I have two fakie mold cousins to Concerned Pony... they have great facial expressions...

Wait.  Is there a fakie to the Concerned Pony fakie?

Well...  these guys have definite emotion:

See how the eyepaint just is stamped right on top of the eyes?  That are totally different shapes?  *snerk* 

I got them in a random giant bag of fakies at a thrift store.  I have no idea where to find more, but I would happily add them to my fakie crew!

I think I have one of the blue too.  I've seen the orange at Giant Tiger stores in Canada sold a long plastic tube that has ponies stacked inside

WOW, DEM EYES!  The funny thing is the blue one is what I usually think of "the squinty-eyed fakie" because her eyes are abnormally small . . .  I guess she got that corrected in the most dramatic way.

FiddlePhan, I've seen the fakie tubes.  The most amazing way I've ever seen fakies packaged. :P


So, I bought this coloring book off Taobao:

Yeah, Aliexpress is definitely easier to order from, and probably not even much more expensive.  I'm really glad for the link because I hadn't found it there.  If anyone finds Concerned Fakies on Aliexpress or Taobao pleeeease let me know!  So far I have  only found them on the 'retail ordering' site Alibaba Express where you have to order, like, 300 cases or something crazy like that.

That said, today's fakie does come to use from Alibaba Express . . .

Yes, a G3 pony, Barbie fakie, and Kelly fakie make for a sort of odd set, but it's really the packaging that puts this one on my favorites list. 

"Lucy come to the amusement park together with aliee and white horse," Barbie thinks to herself.  (Or maybe she is Aliee, and she thinks of herself in the third person?) 

Pictured on the back:  'white horse' Desert Rose, ripped from Hasbro's old G3 'sticker' website (remember that game?).  Not included in the actual toys:  a white horse.  Man, Lucy is going to be sooo disappointed when she sees she has to hang out with that loser PINK horse.

But for now she is unaware of this sad turn of events and jauntily says, "Let go, my good fellow."

The other great thing about this package is the castle drawn on the back.  Does it look familiar?

Am I the only one who in the stores reads the texts on all kinds of fakies' packages because the translations are always so cringy? ^^;

There is another blue one with pinkie's symbol and tinsel in her hair, too. That one is a lower quality, and slightly smaller.

I guess when they start making fakies of fakies, you know that things have gone nuts.

I need to take some pictures of the giant fakies in the shop in Wood Green next time I'm in London. I just haven't worked out how to do it without being arrested or something. It's a weird shop o.O.

Elite Knight Cadence is awesome.

I keep forgetting to post this, I didn't have her uploaded on imgur when I initially posted about her:

The blue, pinkie-symbolled fakie of the concerned pony fakie:

She's smaller and has thinner plastic than the original, as well as having tinsel and a 'borrowed' symbol.

Here's the Taobao link! There is also a Glory bag, but she is more of a purse than a backpack.
I ordered both of them off of Aliexpress (for around 150% the price on Tao) and I am ever grateful for Moschino bootlegs.

😮 is it bad I'm sincerely tempted to this. Reckon I'm known in my neighbourhood as the crazy pony lady because I was taking photos once with my Primark mlp jacket on my head as a sun shade😂

I bought some fakies because how could I resist something called MY LITTLE LONY?

(Or possibly My Little Bony.  But I think My Little Lony sounds funnier, so . . .)

They're G4 blindbag bootlegs, but I could tell from the pictures that they were hard plastic and hollowed out.  So I was expecting them to be low quality and kind of random.  Like a kind of "Hey, these two toys are popular, toss them together" attitude on the part of the fakie company.  Like when you see random stuff like a bootleg Darth Vader packaged with bootleg Pikachu.

But as it turns out, I misjudged the Lonies and the company who makes them, SY.  It seems that SY specializes in *cough cough* unlicensed Lego-compatible figures.  Both the building blocks and the ponies are high quality, and the ponies have been remolded so that their hooves have holes on the bottom compatible with Legos!

^ Applejack has . . . grown wings . . . and is the only member of the Mane Six in the line.  The others are based on various blind bag ponies like Cherry Spices, Merry May, etc.

I definitely recommend these to anyone who likes MLP and Legos, especially since they're quite cheap on Taobao.  (Search for SY682 and SY788 to find them.  I bought eight small sets + four deluxe sets for, like, $10.)
