I think I found a factory flawed g3?
« on: August 17, 2012, 01:17:04 AM »
I think I found a factory flawed g3?
Her heart mark is not on her display side, it's on her
Front right instead.... So when she's stood properly
It's behind her and you can't see it....

Is this. A flaw or are some g3 like this?
(I don't collect g3 only pick them up to trade)

I will get some pictures later

Are you talking about the hoof heart?  If so, it indicates which hoof contains the magnet, which is not necessarily the hoof on the display side. 

In some releases, the hoof heart was accidentally placed on the hoof without the magnet, these are known as RHH (reverse hoof heart) and can be sought after.

This is actually common for G3's. :)

For the first year of the G3 releases (2003) Hasbro put the 'hoof heart' on the display side of the pony, regardless of which hoof had the magnet.

For the later half of 2003 and all years after, Hasbro put the hoof heart on the hoof that had the magnet, regardless or whether it was the display side of the pony or not.

A few ponies that were made in 2003 can be found in both varieties--the hoof heart on the display side, or the one with the magnet. Neither version is really more rare than the other.
Thank you Thimble for my amazingly cute avatar!

Yes as Dragonflitter says it is a pretty common element of G3s - I dont think I would call it a factory flaw as it is simply a part of the line and a way a lot of ponies were released.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
