British convenience store Poundland stocks "My Lovely Pony", "Tommy the Train", "Little Explorer" and "Spider Power" merchandise. Amusingly, another My Little Pony ripoff is available, sold as My Lovely HORSE.The German toy giant Simba introduced their own My Little Pony Shoddy Knockoff Product when the real deal had fallen into unimportance due to neglect by Hasbro. They copied the G3 molds, modified the printing and named the result "My Sweet Pony". Hasbro noticed and sued, and Simba had to apply a few more changes and re-release their small toy horses (not ponies) under the "Filly" brand. Unfortunately, Filly has become so popular among little girls in Germany who have never heard of My Little Pony that the fourth MLP generation would have ended up in obscurity, weren't it for the bronies. http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ShoddyKnockoffProduct
It's so weird that they would go after this fakie, as opposed to ones that use stolen moulds or graphics or whatnot... yeah, it's a coloured horse with a hip tattoo but it's also fairly different, with the removable hooves. The name is kiiiinda close though.

A lot of the other fakie makers are in China where they don't care about copyright law.
