Variant eyed TE Sweet Stuff - added black light pics last page :)
« on: April 30, 2014, 06:45:20 PM »
She arrived today and guess what? She's a Pat Pend with pale grey/greenish eyes! She has almost complete sheen on them, and it's very different color of sheen/gloss than the "normal" one that i have.
Here they are with flash:

I bought this girl and am wondering what she would normally sell for, if she's a new variant or if she'd been seen before. These are the pics from the seller:

I've been looking specifically for TE variants lately, and I just can't wait to get more info on her!!

Added: This is what normal eyed G1 Sweet Stuff looks like:

Not entierly sure, but her eyes may be faded. I recall someone on the arena had a very lovely green eyed Sweet Stuff but her eyes were a somewhat deep emerald. :)

'twas me.  :)  I'll pull up her photo in a bit, on theipad at the moment.

But what you're looking at here wouldbe the"grey eyed" version of the TE's.  These are the "non-patent pending" versions and typically have very washed out eyes.  Check the hoofs, she should be missing the "pat. pend" onone of her hooves.  ^-^

Here we go - finally found my pictures.  :)  I don't own her anymore, but the Green-Eyed Sweet Stuff was a prototype that I came across quite a few years ago while collecting.  I collected variant and nirvana TE's for many years but have since sold off the remaining ponies in my collection.  Sweet Stuff, however, is the only one that I truly regret selling.  :(

Is it a variant because of the non-pat pend stamp and the grey eyes? If it isn't a true variant, then i feel kinda dumb being so excited about it :blush:

Yes, it is a variant.  If she does not have the pat pend on her foot, then she's a different version than the typical version.  There are quite a few different reasons as to the non-pat pend., one being that they're somewhat referred to as the "German" versions of ponies.  You find the non-PP in other ponies as well, not just the TE's.  And there are slight variations of the ponies, most obviously in the TE's that their eyes appear grey or colorless, especially when a flash is used.  I have some other pictures I'll try to dig up of non-pat pend TE's that I've had and since sold (Locket, Galaxy, and a couple others), but here's a clear and comparative shot of my two Sweet Stuffs that I took before they found new homes.

Oh, Cloud Weaver, very pretty!!
Were the German non-PP versions of ponies only sold in Germany, or did they leak into surrounding countries as well? I know i've seen the German variants of ponies in the "Nirvanas By Country" thread in the Nirvana forum, but i was wondering if they (the TE's) were they created like this or, as the others have said, they're just prone to fading?

Really, the gems don't fade.  ;)  Yes, the non-PP (NPP) TE ponies carry they "grey eyed" trait.  And there really isn't a way to track their origin to Germany specificially, but I will say that the NPP ponies tend to circulate through Europe more often than the US.  They are primarily found in Germany, England, Switzerland, and other like countries. 

I know there's a history as to why some of the ponies were released without the PP stamp but quite honestly I don't really know the story.  Someone in the nirvana forum could probably answer it. 

Hope that answers your question,  :)

They really don't fade? I've read previously that they can... now I'm trying to remember where I read that!

Always something new to learn about these ponies, I guess I have more ponies to see and collect than I thought.

yup my nonpatpend sweet stuff has grayed eyes

fyi the non patpend are not necessarily worth more, but they are harder to come by *on purpose* so you may pay a bit more to get one (I have)

Do you have a pic of her, Roogna? I'd love to see it :heart: It's funny...I was Ok with TE's as a child, but they weren't my favourite. Now, as an adult, there's just something intensely appealing about them :)
