We're getting really close to the list being complete now guys! I thought I'd try a different approach to getting the rest of the info confirmed
I'll break it down into smaller chunks, ask for confirmation per set
So...... can anyone confirm the last few Newborn Twins listed below??Of course there are still others, they're hidden in the spoilers, please do feel free to confirm any of those too
Thanks again for all your help, I'm hoping to have a small website with this list on when I'm done
Original Post:
Hi Ponies!
Since being heavily involved with
this thread and learning from the very knowledge PKW
here about the granting of the patent and moving factories from Hong Kong to China which affected hoof markings of ponies from 1987/88 I am compiling a list of ponies with patent pending stamps vs ones without.
In a nutshell, many ponies from that time period were produced while the patent was pending and they were still being produced afterwards so there are sets with both hoof markings. Same principle with Hong Kong vs China.
So my aim is to compile a list of all the variations as a collecting tool that I will share with everyone. I have a list of all the (known) releases so far and adding these in will complete it as far as it can be complete when new Nirvanas are still being discovered.
But I need your help!!
Below is a list of all the sets that are affected by these differences and I have marked on it the ones I have in my own collection as confirmed, so we know they exist. What I need from you guys is to confirm the rest
Please check your ponies and reply to this thread with the ones that don't have confirmation yet. Just a simple "I have Tex made in Hong Kong with a pat pend mark" is all I need for the ones without confirmation, or of course if you know for definite without a doubt that they exist (or don't exist for that matter) but you don't have them
If I can get this list as complete and accurate as possible it will be a great tool for collectors of G1 ponies for the whole community to use
Huge thanks in advance to anyone who participates and helps!
So onto the list...
HKPP = Made in Hong Kong with Pat Pending mark
HKNPP = Made in Hong Kong with no Pat Pending mark
CPP = Made in China with Pat Pending mark
CNPP = Made in China with no Pat Pending mark
