She doesn't have as much glitter on the inside of her as those fakies.

Like I said, probably a reject (which can range from Testing to Oops)

Still a nice find though
My DeviantArt, why not drop by and take a look!

Oh, I think I've seen this girl before, but I didn't make the connection until now. This doesn't match any known Rarity (she always has multicolored hair if her hair is colored at all) and the style looks quite similar:

My guess is fakie.

The fakie makers have gotten REALLY good- I learned that they are often the same factories that make the licensed products...

Rarity too, huh?
How odd just their manes are painted.

I love love love when they have the glitter inside!
Getting glitter everywhere and getting occasional dust stuck to glitter really kills the entire sparkly appeal for me...and I really do like sparkly things.

Ok so I know that Fluttershy, Rarity & Pinkie Pie are supposed to be coming with the Ponyville Party Game
but I just saw all these bbs with glitter inside & non-painted manes/tails and didn't recognize them.
I haven't been paying as close attention to fakies and taobao oddities as I once did so forgive me if they're already known but here are the pics from taobao

I really hope these are legit because it will make up for wave 12 being a total snooze.

Ummm. So, the opaque ones are both official and recent, probably. There is a Lily Blossom fakie that's impossible to distinguish from the real thing at that angle, but she hasn't been around much lately, and I think the others are all safe and from either the latest wave or the next. So this is probably a legitimate assortment. Several of those cutie marks I've never seen on fakies before, but they all do match past official releases and the body colors are more or less correct. And yet... why is Twilight a unicorn?

Ribbon Wishes, Lucky Dreams, ...okay I'm having trouble recognizing the pink Applejack.

I think there will be several new Ponies as well. I personally can't regonise the green pegasus one.
EDIT: A it's Lucky Dreams and the Pink Applejack is Sprinke Stripe.

Oh, that's a cupcake! I was trying to see it as a pair of insect wings. Yes, Sprinkle Stripe, definitely, and if this is indeed a Wave 3 remake, that kind of explains why Berryshine is a unicorn again.

The only thing that's strange it's why Ribbon Wishes is included. Because she's a Wave 5 one.

I think I may have already seen fakes of these- from the same ebay seller who has the white/blue/lavender bodied fakies that mostly have generic cutie marks and sometimes have metal rings and keychains.

They are quite curious. That taobao seller that listed them sells both fakies and what appear to be legit ponies too so no telling what's up with these.
It took me so long staring at that pink AJ mold pony to realize that her cutie mark is a cupcake  :drunk:
The only think throwing me off from thinking these might be an upcoming wave is unicorn Twilight and unicorn Berryshine/Berry Punch. Then again, Hasbro... so who knows. Even though I prefer solid color bbs, I think the ponies look really pretty like this. Hopefully they are real and we'll get a couple new characters out of the wave as well.

The glitter looks more like the glitter in the game pieces than the glitter in the fakes. The fakies seem to have bigger chunky glitter in them.

Part of the confusion could be the same manufacturer making both products - legit and fake. Although with Hasbro and the weird decisions they make on blind bags who knows.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
