Title: Can anyone identify this pony?
Post by: karrie91 on November 01, 2012, 11:23:12 PM: I thought she was a fakie at first.. she's slightly smaller than other ponies but has 'Hasbro 2002' on her hoof..

Her cutie mark is on both sides.

She's more of a pink than orange.

Any ideas? I couldn't find her on Strawberry Reef or the Fakie's Guide..

but is has Hasbro written on it? how would they get away with that? Or maybe that's why they aren't being produced anymore? xDD

She literally has a hoof with hasbro's copyright on it. But she has to be fake. 2 cutie marks? Different feeling material and no hearts in her eyes. She does have a hoof heart also. But she's so much smaller than a regular pony.

Yep, it's pretty unbelievable! I think the problem is that, with bootlegging so common in China (since Chinese law doesn't have a punishment for bootlegging, I think?), it's only really financially worthwhile to go after the bootleggers who are costing Hasbro a lot of money. Otherwise, they'd be in court all the time, trying to stop all of the fakie-companies!

sometimes places that use hasbro molds (like that) still have the feet imprints

Post by: ponylady on November 02, 2012, 06:46:33 AM: Nice find! I personally like the fakies that use Hasbro's mold.

Post by: hathorcat on November 02, 2012, 07:56:52 AM: Very cute! But certainly a fakie and I have seen her before too although I think she was a lilac colour if I remember correctly.

I much prefer Hasbro mould fakies over any others - they are real fakies if you know what I mean lol!
