Depends if you're talking about mass produced ponies or prototypes IMO. Of mass produced ponies, probably the Takaras or Ladybird?

I definitely agree! The mass produced ponies are ~$1000-$5000. The prototypes surpass that and as nhal039 said, with private sales, we have no way of knowing what the market will bear...
are takara ponies a fakie?

I was offered $1000 for Baby Susie once. I guess though Baby Sugarberry is right, a pony that is never for sale is essentially priceless, and therefore really difficult to value.
There's a mint in package piggy pony on eBay right now with a price of around $7,400 Canadian dollars.... If that one sells I don't think I've seen one go that high before.
takaras are indeed real, but there are fairly prolific fakies of the babies... i think they turned up in spain?
yup, those were the ones i was thinking of... i've only seen packaging for those ones, so that might be the case... but im also not well versed in takara or their fakies :Ptakaras are indeed real, but there are fairly prolific fakies of the babies... i think they turned up in spain?
The ones made by Palau toys were sold in Spain.. they are made with a squishier plastic, and have poor paint jobs.
There's many makers of takara fakies-- and they've have shown up across the world, but palau toys and the lovely pets ones might be the only ones that showed up in packaging?

I would imagine that a number of ponies sold for CRAZY money at one point and then their value came down... but most of those are Nirvana.

-BBE Sunlight
-Alt pose Sunnybunch
-Giant wax shy pose Bubbles
-Lavender My Pretty Pony
-That birthflower pony with purple hair, a yellow symbol and unpainted eyes
-The purple rainbow baby pony with pink, yellow, green and blue hair, and no symbol
-Collector pose Sundance (I know this one's controversial, but she looks real to me. Or was she proven fake? I haven't kept up)
-The painted U.K. school ponies

I think someone has a Birthday pony prototype and there's Sunspot prototype too and on Ebay someone was selling last summer prototype teeny tiny ponies and a sparkle pony prototype. Mylittlewiki also has some collectors photo of a Cocoberry prototype. And wasn't there a baby Explorer prototype too? And I think someone on arena has a Takara prototype.

Thank you, this helps a lot!
Right, I forgot about Sunspot! And wooooow, that Coco Berry is GORGEOUS! Such a shame her official release was downgraded to generic pastel blue and fading pink :\
And I keep hearing about these teeny tiny and sparkle prototypes, but I've yet to see a picture of them, even when I went looking on eBay last summer shortly after they were purchased. I'd also love to see that Birthday Pony prototype if anyone has a picture :lovey:
