Starshine oddity - prototype? factory error? What do you think?
« on: January 27, 2012, 09:55:22 AM »
Sorry for my thread spamming today, but I've been off work this week due to medical reasons so I finally have some time for pony picture taking!


Anyway, here's another interesting pony that I purchased from my friend:

Unfortunately there is no story to accompany this girl, so we can only guess who she is and where she came from. Her head is factory sealed, but as far as I can tell from the outside her hair is original. The colors, length, & slight blend between color sections match the other year 3 Rainbow Ponies perfectly. She has no trace of ever having a symbol. Her eyes are the same blue as German Starshine, with whom she shares a pose. However, her feet are marked with PAT PEND, where German Starshine's are not. She is also not afflicted with the cancer/dark brown spots that are common on her German friend. So... what do you think about her??

And just for fun... here's a little preview of my pony room. It's about 90% finished, just getting that last bit of stuff unpacked & displayed has taken more months than I care to admit. This wall is Nirvanas & European released ponies. ;)

I remember that pony! I nearly bought her myself but was about broke at the time :silly: She's really pretty, but I have no idea where she could have come from. It's a shame these ponies can't talk, I'd love to hear her story.

Are there any pictures of her in pamphlets or anything? :what:

She was in one of the Delanys' sales :) The same sale I got my Lickety-Split from. They had a website made for it, but there were several issues with it so I think they took it down after maybe 2 weeks.

Maybe she is a German variant, with those hair colors. I have no idea why she has no symbol though... either she never had one and it was a prototype (maybe), or it was cleanly wiped away.

The owner of the collection that the Delaneys were selling is the friend who I bought this pony from. The ponies they didn't not sell we're returned to her.
