Macau variations...

[hathorcat]

I cant say I have ever seen or heard of a blonde Minty before. There was a lot of scepticism about at the time when blonde Jenny showed up as well however; people were not certain if it was real or discolouration. 

Sorry to ask but are you sure that Minty is blonde? She looks to have a pink streak in her hair and I would initially be tempted to say that colouring was actually as a result of internal discolouration. Her hair looks a little too white at the tips to not be originally white. I am going to hope she is blonde when you get her - cant wait to see more.

I saw the pink in her hair, too...but I did some comparisons between the blonde of Jenny and her, and they looked similar enough to gamble €12 on...besides, she's still a pretty girl either way, and a Macau, so if if I'm only happy 2 ways out of three, and she isn't a true blonde, well...I'm still happy

Oh, i should point out that I've purchased from this person in the past and she hasn't in any way claimed it is a blonde Minty. She's a great seller and an extremely honest person (she informed me when she found an age spot on a Big Brother pony I purchased and did it BEFORE sending, so I could choose to cancel the purchase instead of just mailing it off and hoping i'd be Ok with it) This is my own curiosity making me roll the dice again as I sometimes do with funky things I see on eBay

I have a question about Blosscotch: is there only one version of her? On some pictures she looks rather pinkish to me, in others more lilac/purple. Is this just discoloration or are there two versions?

Thanks in advance!

I believe there are two like her...she's Macau, and the other is Macau-like Itaian. They's pretty similar in appearance There may be some color differences between batches, though.

[Naraya]

But is the Macau-like Italian also stamped "Macau"? Both versions that I saw had the Macau-stamp on the hooves.

[SeashellnBubbles]

No, the Italy has an ITALY etched into the hoof. There are sometimes slight differences in batch colors, and the plastic can fade or discolor over time, but I haven't heard of there being an official variation...are the symbols different, do you remember? Like, one smaller than the other, or different # of butterflies?

[Naraya]

No, the symbols seemed to be just the same. So just a slight difference in colour, but no variation?

[SeashellnBubbles]

I don't believe so, bot I've only been researching them as my priority ponies for a few months...others who have been around longer, such as Hathorcat or someone else may know of a variation, however

How many Peachy variants are there?

[hathorcat]

I know the colour difference you mean - one is a like a pinky purple and the other a proper light purple? Its a notorious colour that light purple. The pink version is a discolouration - I have actually seen a couple with pinkish bodies and purpleish heads over the years

There are 2 Peachies however - one a distinct pink and the other one a pale peach in colour.

Sorry! But at least the thrill of the hunt is not over.
