Enchanted Kingdom horse ID help?

[Goldilocks]

Today I wanted to groom a couple of new EK horses mom has bought me. And I noticed I couldn't ID some of my horses.

I have already checked the two EK horse sites I found:
http://tolovecherishandcollect.webs.com/
http://www.freewebs.com/enchantedkingdomhorses/

So has anyone else found this horse:
walking pose
matte white body
blonde hair
turquoise eyes
pink hooves
gold beads
not bridesmaid: blonde hair instead of pink, gold beads instead of purple
not gypsy: eyes turquoise istead of pink, body matte instead of pearly, beads gold instead of green
not rainbow: pink hooves instead of purple, body matte instead of pearly, gold beads instead of multicolored
not top hat: hooves pink instead of red
not rose princess: eyes turquoise instead of purple, beads gold instead of pink
This horse is in the lower left corner of the pic.

And what is the mystery of this horse:
walking pose
matte pink body
pink hair
purple eyes
purple hooves
not spring bride: eyes purple instead of turquoise
But one of the EK sites list her as an unidentified horse and another as Spring Bride?
This horse is in the second row from the top, on the right side.

And would anyone recognise if any of the spare brushes I have in the pic (2x blue, 1x lavender) belong to any of the horses I have in the pic?

Thanks for any help

Wow. Good luck! Could the one be Top Hat but with faded hooves? I'm not sure.

[Goldilocks]

She resembles Top Hat the most. The hooves don't look faded though (the colour is uniform and same shade with the other horses' pink hooves).

Does anyone have experience of faded red paint on these horses?

Or would a reissue be possible? Like Nina with red hooves vs. Nina with pink hooves?

Or factory error - Bridesmaid with wrong hair? The body without the hair would look identical to Bridesmaid.

Wysteria is the resident EK expert--maybe see if she can shed some light?

Hope she will notice this topic then

Give a few minutes to look and think about this.  I will be back!  <3

OK, I have read your description and looked at your pictures and my own EK Horses.


I've heard rumors that Top Hat was released in a pink-hooved version.  And I know that sometimes one version will have the smooth beads (like the Top Hat on my site) and the other version has faceted beads.  (Mikado's 2 releases are an example of this.)  >> I have *never* seen this version of Top Hat, and until I see one Mint In Box I cannot confirm the identity for sure.




 I think it is also possible that you have the horse listed as "Bridesmaid" on my site:  http://www.freewebs.com/enchantedkingdomhorses/unidentifiedhorses.htm


I am thinking her hair may have been faded by the sun.  Hair beads can be removed, so maybe they are not her original ones?


----------------------


These are my two best answers.   Sorry I can't say for sure, but that is part of the fun of collecting these horses.  Finding out new versions and new horses makes it interesting!  <3

Thanks for the reply

Sounds interesting. I don't know if the mystery horse's body color is supposed to be cream (Bridesmaid) or white (Top Hat). The hair color looks similar to Top Hat's. Top Hats have wider eyeshadows though. Here is the horse with two Top Hats.

What do you think about the pink horse, is she Spring Bride or someone else?

Has there been any confirmation about EK horse brushes?

[wystearya]

Both Bridesmaid & Top Hat are supposed to be white.  It is not uncommon to find they have turned cream with age or due to exposure to the sun. 

About the eye shadow, check out the two versions of Mikado on my site: http://enchantedkingdomhorses.webs.com/mikado.htm

The different releases have different thickness in the eye shadow and black part of the eyes.   You can also see it on the page about Bouquet: http://www.freewebs.com/enchantedkingdomhorses/bouquet.htm

So, I wouldn't base too much on how the eyes are painted to judge which horse it is.   The same horse can have eyes painted differently.  It isn't always as dramatic as the examples I showed you.  But it is common to see the eyes look a bit different with different releases.   I also think that some of the very earliest EK Horses have small differences from the others.  This may be the case with your pink-hooved girl.  <3

If you mean the pink horse in the picture in your first post, then yes, I think she is Spring Bride.
Scroll past Aloha to see her:  http://enchantedkingdomhorses.webs.com/adultswalking.htm

What do you mean about the brushes?   They did indeed come with them.   The earlier releases came with brushes that say "Enchanted Horses" and later they said "Enchanted Kingdom".

Glad you're finding help with these!

One of the EK horse sites says that Bridesmaid is supposed to be creamy white, but maybe that's wrong information then. This same site also has a pic of Spring Bride with turquoise eye shadow, maybe they have a different issue of her or something... http://www.freewebs.com/tolovecherishandcollect/posingpage2.htm

I meant the colours of the brushes Is it confirmed which colour came with which horse or were they just randomly packaged with any colour of a brush?

[wystearya]

Yeah, Bridesmaid should be white, but is often found to look more cream due to age.  At least this is my experience!


I do think that Spring Bride is a different version.   I do think that Europe had some that the USA did not.  From what I have found, I think that the little bouquet accessories the other site has pictured is a Europe-only item.  I don't think the US versions had them.  And it makes them hard to find!   So, I believe the turquoise eyed Spring Bride is a European release.

The brushes: I don't think they were totally random.  I do think they tried to package them with coordinating colors.  Like Spring Bride came with pink or maybe purple.   Gypsy came with yellow.  I don't know that they always came with a certain color brush, as I have not seen enough Mint on Card pictures to be 100% sure.

[Goldilocks]

Ok this is good info to know.

I have two Spring Brides with purple eyeshadow which I have found from my country though, but maybe the European versions are like International versions of MLP; sold together with the US versions. Like International shy pose Confetti was sold here as well as US trotting pose Confetti.

[wystearya]

You may be right about that!   There isn't nearly as much information about EK Horses out there as for MLPs, so it is hard to know too much for sure.   But I am glad I could at least help you out some.  <3
