What ever happened to the G4 FS fakies?

[Tulips]

Did anyone else see these G4 Fashion Style fakies? There was an old thread about them but I don't know what happened with them. I wanted to buy one.
Applejack had a pineapple and her hat was permanent attached to her head. I forget who the other fakie was of, maybe Rarity?
Does anyone know if you can buy them at all?
 

Thanks

Oh man, I want those so badly. If I remember right someone found where to buy them, but you had to buy in bulk.

I asked about prices but group interest kinda dropped off because of the bulk thing yeah and communication about them ceased. I wonder if we can find them again because I'd still love to have one

EDIT:
Ah, I found the old thread... seems payment was an issue. It's a shame, they're quite cute and I love fakies.

I wonder if there's a chance anyone else could get in touch with the seller and try again. I'd be hopeless at that kind of thing though lol

I dont think they have ever turned up anywhere for sale and all we seem to have seen are the promo shots - personally I would wait until they are retail somewhere as I am sure if cheap enough and FiM continues to be so popular someone somewhere will grab them - we are a little light in G4 fakies at the moment Ordering a fakie product from an unknown supplier with a unsecure payment method can be a little worrying.

They are so neat, I would have loved a pineapplejack! There are some shots of her on someone's blog, so was definitely sold somewhere, but I can't remember what country she was from. I will see if I can find the link..

EDIT: I found the link, but unfortunately the blog is no longer there. 

They are slightly smaller than a real FS and AJs hat is a moulded part of her and not removable, which I think adds to her charm!

Hopefully they'll turn back up, it's a little weird how few fakies of G4 have been spotted, they haven't caught up to the new trend

No one saved the photos?

Thats interesting! I thought we had only seen the promo shots and a handful of images from alababa...

Great find moonflower!

Wow that hat is properly "on her head" isnt it. I wonder where the picture taker managed to track her down?

[majikarte]

I want to say that someone had sent a message to the person who owned them and they were in Russia? But I'm really not sure about that. (Might be in the old thread somewhere?)

edit: Okay yes, the person is from Russia, according to their deviantArt.

Cat- I hope you don't mind me sharing the picture of the fakies with someone I know He collects knockoff toys and will be interested in this

I've copied the images onto imgur so I don't leach off your bandwidth

[Tulips]

lol Applejack really doesn't have much hair with that hat, but a fringe is too much to ask from a fakey
