Title: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: hathorcat on June 04, 2013, 04:24:30 PM
Taobao/Ebay - Unconfirmed/Unknown Discovery Thread

In this first post each thread will be listed along side a picture of the discovery, the date of post and the screen name of the OP. This is NOT the main location for discussion on the ponies - that is what individual threads are for. This is simply for people to find a link to all the threads in regards al the discoveries. If you start a thread or spot a thread which is not listed please post it in here and I shall link it in this first post. Also note any new "discoveries" of ponies which are already posted in here, will be merged with any older thread in order that we have one thread for each discovery.

This thread is primarily for ponies which have not had a confirmed release as anything which is confirmed, you can of course post in the new and coming soon thread. Over time if any of these discoveries have confirmed releases they will be moved from here to the Coming Soon thread.

Hahaha I dont know if this counts, but mango on ebay has a funny protoype listed for auction. It appears to be  an earth pony head in Bubble's color, no eye paint, with the SBRD's 7 rows of hair- on top a vivid purple pegasus body with a rainbow tail! LOL! I know its not taobao, but I know she gets some of her ponies from there!

It's essentially just Shadow bolt RD without the paint, so its not quiiiite a prototype at least.

LOL I think its still interesting looking! xD Maybe a test-run pony?
Title: Re: Taobao Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Lady Starflower on June 18, 2013, 08:45:36 AM
I saw that, she looks really neat and I'd totally buy her if she had eyes :lol: ponies with no eyes freak me out XD
Title: Re: Taobao Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Marigold on June 18, 2013, 09:49:31 AM
I agree about the eyes.  That is the one reason I haven't cared for any of the paintless prototypes or some of the art ponies.  Eyeless ponies are scary!

OMG THATS GORGEOUS! I am happy to hear that is going to be widely distributed  and now everyone can have one! MaybeWysteria will be a target exclusive too!?  What is the name of that toyline, Pinkie Pie's boutique?

Oh my gosh that is absolutely beautiful! Maybe this should get it's own thread??
I'm surprised that hair clip, which was on one of the first glitter Pinkies to surface, actually comes with! How cute! And another Target exclusive line! I had a feeling the "black tie" Pinkies would be store exclusives. I'm really exited to see if there will be more to this line in addition to this and FS Pinkie and Wysteria. Looks just gorgeous!

Post by: PitterPatter on June 20, 2013, 06:23:07 AM
Glad I ordered one from Taobao in the end because then I know I definitely have her rather than seeing *if* Tesco or Argos get the Target exclusives through in the end here in the UK ^.^

The picture of her on the box shows her with much more subdued hair colors and in a different order.  I love my Clown Rarity, but I think the softer colors look more like Rarity.

Ooooh, that Rarity! I'm glad I waited to get her, that's lovely. I'm chalking the color differences up to a difference in lighting, maybe?

Those glitter ponies look like customs to me. I'm suspicious.

I'm pretty sure those glitter ponies are customs from Taobao.. Fluttershy doesn't have a moon cutie mark  :huh:

I am pretty sure those glitterized ponies are DIY and not actual releases- based on the design... but who knows?

Here's a link to the thread for the new Minty set (back of the box pictured above), the new Twilight Sparkle and the new Sunset Shimmer (I LOOOVE the outfit on Sunset SHimmer)

http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,339309.0.html

Here's the pictures re-posted- (just adding them so this post doesn't get overlooked)

Yeah, the glittery ponies are just customized. I went to order the Celestia with gold glitter and my agent let me know they added the glitter so I canceled it. Pretty sure this others are the same.

Totally. I think they were going for a more grown-up teen look, rather than just cute little ponies. I like cute little ponies though, haha.

I especially loved the new rainbow colored fashion style Rarity, new Sunset shimmer, and the TROPICAL PINKIE!!!!  :inlove:  I so hope they make Tropical ponies like that with that clear plastic!  I loved the tropicals from G1 too!  That new brushable Twilight with faded wings looks really pretty too!

It seems to go in waves. We get lots for a couple of weeks and then have a few weeks of nothing. But then again thats a very loose pattern.

Isn't that the mould for blindbag Dizzy Hooves/Bubbles? :o It does look like a versatile mould, though, so here's hoping we get two pegasus moulds in the next wave of blind bags...

Discussed in the main blind bag speculation thread (http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,334472.0.html). Might correspond to this lady:

Oh cool! I haven't seen that Twilight with her packaging and clothing!  She is cute although her "shirt" is maybe not working for her...

Is the new box of blindbags a Taobao find or a confirmed release?  I know it's only been spotted on Taobao- but we've spotted almost all of these before (except Medley)

Medley isn't news. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/281126920019) The only figure we hadn't seen before on that list was Shoeshine in the Pinkie Pie mold.

I wonder if this Rainbow Power thing will be part of Season 4 then. Hasbro seems to be making a big event out of it or something. XD

Like, the Crystal Empire toy line was discovered before the Season 3 premiere, I think.

She hasnt been released yet if it is her. If it is nici this will be a test or proto. Nici go by catalogue years and right now they are still only going to be carrying Pinkie/RD/Twilight unfortunately.

oh...that makes sense then...it seems like there is a shop in Singapore (CNS) that is starting preorders for her and she's only due to arrive in feb next year (source:Singapore Bronies Society Facebook group)...

and i checked out the other items in the seller's store. it seems like luna, muffin and applejack are in the works too!

Hmmm...having seen the others, I am not sure if they are Nici now unfortunately. The Applejack in the middle has been floating around online for a while now. But no one seems to know if bootleg or an official release by someone.

Time for some sleuthing! To me, they look very similar to the prototypes that Nakajima Corp showed off at the Tokyo Toy Show a few months ago. Same skinny/bendy legs, embroidered eyes, fabric mane with embroidered highlights. Their snouts are a little pointier/curvier than the protos, though. The Fluttershy posted here seems to have the same "double wing" design as the proto pegasi displayed at the TTS, with two different pieces to the feathering. The Applejack here also has a very similar hat, just a bit larger than the proto's and covering the ears.

Apparently the company decided not to manufacture the plush (http://news.everfree.net/2013/08/japan-merch-update-nakajima-corp-will-not-pursue-mlp-plush-manufacturing/) because they didn't get enough orders from large companies, but I also noticed a unique Princess Twilight Sparkle (http://i.imgur.com/z24yrbv.jpg) on ebay a few days ago with similar materials, construction, design cues, and a hangtag in Japanese. I thought it was odd that such a high quality plush with a seemingly official Japanese tag would exist (the tag even has a barcode and safety warning not to give to babies), seeing as the only company stated to have similar plans said they weren't going ahead. And now that I look at the seller's other items, they have an Applejack (http://i.imgur.com/BU4lzPg.jpg) listed which looks identical to the AJ posted here, they even have the same tush tag! And the AJ listed has the same official-looking Japanese hangtag (http://i.imgur.com/zeWpDcV.jpg) as Twilight.

So, maybe they are Nakajima prototypes leaking out the factory, or maybe the shop in Singapore placed a good enough order to pull Nakajima back into production? Or perhaps it's nothing at all and I'm blowing a lot of hot air. All we can do is wait and see. ;)

wow! thanks for the info prancingstag! i think the store in Singapore is selling the NICI plush line (from what i can tell from the web and their facebook page)

the pictures you uploaded certainly looks alot like the prototypes from taobao! perhaps that explains the fairly large quantities. i found 2 sellers of the same plush and each had a couple of hundreds in stock!

Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: hathorcat on October 11, 2013, 11:39:26 PM
I know Nakajima are not proceeding with a wide release, but its certainly possible they made initial batches and have resorted to selling them indirectly! That makes sense. Hopefully someone who owns one will be able to report what the tush tags say. :)

Are pegasus mould cutie marks usually that low down? I hope if she gets officially released it's higher up as it looks a little odd to me xD Like it's almost on her knee rather than her flank.

I've noticed on some of the new ponies, like the Mrs. Cake I got especially, the cutie mark is really low. I don't want it to become a trend. :huh:

I want that small Princess Twilight to be released so much! I got the one in the Cadance mold from the Princess Celebration Cars and she just hasn't sat right with me. I'd love to be able to replace her with this ver.

Seems more likely that BB wave 10 may me another translucent/neon wave...

Giant Rarity!!! :shocked: "Styling Size" Pinkie Pie was said to be nine inches, and 22cm is about 8.6 inches... are we getting a whole set of styling size main six? That would be AWESOME! Although this Rarity's eyes seem a little small/low down in comparison to her head, I hope it's a prototype and they enlarge them a touch if she gets released.

I think it's odd that fluttershy is the only one with that new wing mold. I mean we keep getting new taobao ponies show up but only fluttershy has those wings? I just think it's odd because she's been up for awhile.
Honestly those HUGE eyes and squished looking wings make her look like a fakie to me. I have no interest in her at all outside of just collecting her for the sake of completion. I really really hope they don't make more with those wing molds. I like the pretty, stylized feathery look on the princess mold the best, where they actually look like wings instead of just a mass of feathers growing out of their backs. :P

Oops- sorry, you're right- she is old news.  I do think she is a bit too pricey on Taobao.

I really want GIANT Rarity but she is expensive too-  hopefully her price will drop like GIANT Pinkie's price seems to be doing...

I do hope that they do a bunch of them!  A Giant Sunset Shimmer would be fun :D    It does worry me somewhat that GIANT Pinkie has only been spotted in So. America... I hope the giant ponies aren't going to be limited to a few countries.  :P

Ahhhh! I understand the feeling. It's been awhile since there's been any new singles... I'm so tired o 'The mane 6.... BUT WITH RAINBOWS' come on hasbro! Release some old ponies! Some new ponies! I don't even care!
The funkos are so amazing though.

Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Minty Starshine on October 17, 2013, 04:38:45 PM
She was called "Spring Fluttershy" though and didn't even come with a bunny pet, but instead a flower in a bucket. Easter was never used in any description of her or the title of the toy.

They could have called her "2014 Chinese Pinkie Pie" instead of making her specifically about the year of the Horse.

What I guess I'm saying is that I'm a little annoyed that Christmas/Easter are being ignored for this gen while they're making ponies dedicated to the Chinese zodiac. To be clear, there's nothing wrong with doing this and I think the Pinkie is actually a little cute... she's growing on me. I just thought they were steering away from Christmas/Easter because they were too religious in nature, but the Chinese zodiac is also a belief and a part of a culture.  :huh:

I wonder if it is partly a small push into the Chinese market?  Considering the ponies are manufactured there and are a big thing on Taobao it may be that she is sort of a special thing for Chinese collectors as well as Westerners and to sort of celebrate the Hasbro/Chinese factories' partnership in making ponies.  Plus, Chinese New Year seems to be pretty popular in a lot of places (not as big as Christmas, obviously, but still popular) - I know Build-a-Bear has done some zodiac plush and cheongsams and such as well.

Not true, if they ARE trying to push into the Chinese market. When I was in China, Christmas was mostly a foreigner thing that Chinese folk celebrated because it was fun to celebrate other culture- the way america 'celebrates' dios los muertos or chinese new year. most people don't really understand it but like the idea of it well enough. In China grocery stores in more westernized areas hang up some frilly wreaths and a few fake trees but not a single one of my Chinese friends ACTUALLY knew anything about Christmas. I had one Chinese friend who was very very Christian and actually celebrated christmas- or tried to- and didn't know what santa claus was.
It's just not a very big holiday over there. That or halloween or valentines or any really western holiday.
Whereas during Chinese New year I couldn't sleep for DAYS because of all the fireworks going off all night. Spring Festival, too. Heck, Mid Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, even tomb sweeping day!

If they're trying to push into a Chinese market without losing their western fans to confusion Chinese New Year is a very good starting point I think because Westerners know what it is and the Chinese, well, actually really really like it.
If they want to push into that market though they're really going to have to put more effort into it. Ponies are REALLY expensive there in stores. Well, markets, too, but those don't relaly count becaues I'm not sure how much money is actually going to the manufacturer. It's not like on taobao where you can get 6 rmb (1 dollar) ponies sent out kuaidi. If you walk into a toy store and DO manage to find some mlp there (very rare) they are almost certainly going to be G3 even now and they are going to run you a minimum of 40 rmb at the absolute cheapest place I found. Most places are worse- especially G4s. I found one place selling G4s near the sun temple park and they were FIVE HUNDRED RMB a pop!!!! That's almost a hundred US dollars!!!!
Some markets sometiems have them but they are usually beaten up pretty badly (I got a bucnh of boxed g3 and just deboxed them, the boxes honestly were so broken anad beaten it would have hurt their value!!) and I never ever found any outside Beijing.

If they  want to push into Chinese market they're going to have a loooot of work ahead of them.
Lots of things that are manufactured in China are nearly impossible to actually BUY there.

That Royal Coat for Fluttershy is very interesting.  So maybe she IS going to be a princess after all?!  (This seems to be what many EQD viewers have fearfully concluded- based on the comments I was just reading)   Honestly I do think the GIANT alicorn Fluttershy is a prototype or a test shot-(like the wingless Dash- especially since there were so few up and they went fast) but who knows?

Love all the new stuff lately... keep it coming!

There was a rather hilarious listing with Twilight and Cadance dressed up in every FS accessory under the sun, theirs and others'. "Hey Mike, just but all them old accessories on these two, they'll sell!"

I love rd eehhehehee. I wish we would get more new burshableponies and not more "Mane six.... BUT SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT :0" but this is one thing I can definately agree to want. I love those little wind up things. And pretty molded hair! Prolly better not to be brushable, it would get caught in her little wheels and be a nightmare to get out I bet.

He's one of a pair of young boy ponies, the same age as the CMC. They're called "Snips" and "Snails" in the show, but "Snipsy Snap" and "Snailsquirm" in the toyline.

The first one has Fluttershy's tail obviously, but I don't recognize the head on the second frankenpony. Wave 9 isn't turning anything up and I haven't seen a pink and blue blind bag anywhere else before. The color reminds me of the green bubble pony.

Yellow glittery Pinkie Pie with the cutie mark of "Snipsy Snap." We've never seen a yellow glittery Pinkie Pie before, though I guess it could be the same yellow as Fluttershy, Electric Sky, or Mosely Orange.

I thought that head looked different! And with them rereleasing Dewdrop Dazzle and Star Dreams too, I guess that's a strong hint for where the playful pony line is going.

On the bright side, I do want a Lily Blossom, so I guess that part works out.

Looks like some new faces are popping up on both alibaba and taobao. They don't have cutie marks from what I've gathered and there's a ton of listings for them, so they could be well done fakies rather than blank flanked prototypes. I'll order a few soon and see what gives.
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Galactica on November 08, 2013, 08:26:51 AM
I think those particular ones - are in fact fakies.  The taobao seller also has those fakie plushes that are all over the place now-
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Shiromisa on November 08, 2013, 08:55:54 AM
Agreed on fakies. They're made of that weird, shiny plastic. I wouldn't say no to the black, pink, green, and red ones though!
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Draikinator on November 08, 2013, 10:51:51 AM
The plastic looks low quality, the colours choices dont seem to fit with regular bb releases, the paint is a mess and other than the boy pony they're all pretty old molds. Money is on fakies.
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Violet CLM on November 08, 2013, 11:34:39 AM
I wonder if there might be two separate bb fakie lines out there... on the one hand, there are the oodles of Rainbow Dash and Rarity fakies with Applejack and Pinkie Pie cutie marks respectively, and really bad paint jobs. But then there are these folks with more diverse molds, more diverse color schemes, and no cutie marks at all, just like those packaged fakies (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mVxZ1P3ezAw/UkPZCKnE13I/AAAAAAABi3E/GiIsbGcTd1s/s1600/3578041165.jpg) someone found a month or so ago. On the other hand, this photo (http://img.alibaba.com/img/pb/814/943/781/781943814_102.jpg) looks an awful lot like a transitional form? I don't understand, I just want them all :(
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Shiromisa on November 08, 2013, 12:52:19 PM
Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but does it look like the red Rarity there has separate head and body pieces like an official blind bag? The fakies I have are all one piece.

Oooo so guys, I have been thinking. Remember that Tropical Pinkie Pie that was spotted a while ago? Is it possible she could pop up again since another translucent pony with funky hair has been spotted? (talking about the alicorn twilight sparkle!) Seeing the translucent twilight is making me excited about the possibility of the translucent tropical pinkie pie popping up again!

Dude are you serious?  Just scroll up.  There is a new one RIGHT above you! :)

I think the problem is that we (I am just as guilty as anyone else) have been using THIS thread for discussion- when we really should just be posting a link to the discussion thread and a picture of what was spotted.

To sum up, the most recent ponies spotted:

Clear Twilight just above- spotted by Navi.  The thread discussing this pony is : http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,344665.0.html

Zoom n Go ponies are newish-  the thread is: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,343499.html

Lady Starflower spotted the Giant Rarity – but I think the discussion was mostly on this thread.
I started a topic re Giant Rarity and the Giant Alicorn Fluttershy here: http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,343856.0.html

Regular Giant Fluttershy was only recently discovered by KailaOceano.  They were not on Taobao but I think close enough.  They aren't released yet.
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,344829.0.html

Fashion Style Fluttershy – Rainbow powered - discovered WAY after Minty.  Discussion here
http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,341152.0.html

I don't really keep track of the blind bags- but I think there have been a few.

I think you're confused by what I said I meant NEW as in a pony that hasn't already been released I think the last one was Minty 2 or Wisteria right referring to brushables or fs as well. Al those you listed I saw they are the mane six I already have all of them, only other mane 6 I will buy are funkos.
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Lady Starflower on November 20, 2013, 04:29:47 AM
As in new brushable character right? I think Wyseria came a bit before Minty B. But now that I think back I think you're right. There hasn't been any new characters, just rereleases of the mane 6. That is pretty sad if you think about it :(

Although I do REALLY want that translucent Twilight! And I'd kill for a translucent Rarity!!

Well, I'm excited by all the new stuff we've seen lately! Mostly the blind bags because I'm me, but the giant ones and jelly Twilight are really cool too! I'm hoping this means that tropical Pinkie will be released.

OH I see - you are right, I was confused by your statement.  I agree there don't seem to be any new brushable type pony characters on the horizon, which is too bad. 

Luckily for me, while I'd love new characters  I am not really bothered by repeat characters so long as it is a different pony (ie clear or HUGE or something).

It's funny though- Funko seems to be focusing on non main characters mostly- and people complain just as loudly that they should have done the "mane six" first.   Guess it really is hard to please everyone :)

As in new brushable character right? I think Wyseria came a bit before Minty B. But now that I think back I think you're right. There hasn't been any new characters, just rereleases of the mane 6. That is pretty sad if you think about it :(

Although I do REALLY want that translucent Twilight! And I'd kill for a translucent Rarity!!

Twist and Silver Spoon are just now coming out in the target set. They're new brushables! Not totally new characters, though.

If Funko wanted to focus on Cherry Berry and Diamond Mint and Sapphire Shores and Lightning Dust or something like that, they'd have my blessing. If they focus on Dr. Hooves and muffin instead, I would much rather see Twilight Sparkle.

It's a pity we've not seen anyone new in a while, though I am very intrigued by the huuuuge and clear ponies ahaha. It would be awesome if we got a wave of mane six and background ponies that were clear and crystal-y. I would buy all of them. ALL.

I guess it's because Funko haven't released all the mane six over and over yet  :P I would very much like to see their Twilight Sparkle, though, so I'm impatient for her to come along!
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Aquatic Neon on November 20, 2013, 08:42:19 AM
So the most recent NEW character brushables are Twist Silver Spoon Minty and Wisteria correct? Seems like none are coming soon we have only seen mane 6 stuff.

As for the Funko talk they won't rerelease mane 6 over and over like hasbro I'm confident we will keep getting more characters, I think it's smart what they are doing by not rushing the mane 6, although next wave we are getting another mane pony I kinda hope it's Rarity or AJ before Twilight just because those two get the least amount of love plus I think it would be funny if the main character was the last of the 6 released lol.

Cadance's cutie mark, yes; Mac's cutie mark, no. But I wouldn't be surprised... both marks have shown up on a number of random ponies, and Noteworthy is in Wave 9, so he's been around for experimenting on.

Ah okay. Reason I asked is because I don't know if I'm crazy or not...I imagine some blind bags that don't exist XD (as in 'think they exist because I think I saw them, but they don't)

Only one's I've got are, like you said, Cadance's Cutie Mark, and the other with Emerald Ray's Cutie Mark

A single, you can see her on the KMart website: http://www.kmart.com/hasbro-my-little-pony-princess-twilight-sparkle-figure/p-004W089313611146P?prdNo=14&blockNo=14&blockType=G14

So it looks like the Rainbow Power first wave includes Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash. And the second wave includes Applejack and Princess Twilight. The only mystery RP prototypes left are Unicorn Twilight and Sunset Shimmer.

Spoiler

They have only been seen with the tinsel section first in their hair and the Crystal Empire gem eyes, like all of the intitial prototypes did, whereas all of the released ponies seem to have normal eye shines, the nylon hair first and the tinsel section second. So until we see nylon-first versions pop up these two may not see release.
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Shiromisa on December 05, 2013, 03:42:45 AM
I'm willing to bet that Sun-Shim was an error, since she appears to have Twilight's hair and the plain body would have been being printed around then for the mask set. The unicorn Twi, though, that's anyone's guess!
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Galactica on December 05, 2013, 03:52:35 AM
My guess is Sun SHim and Twi are errors (or even test ponies) too.  I got a batch of the glittery ponies from Taobao and there seems to be a lot of variation in the hair-  they may have been experimenting a bit before locking in to the final design.

Unless anyone has noticed much variation in the released ponies ?
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Lady Starflower on December 05, 2013, 05:00:56 AM
I believe that unicorn Twilight is a colour test for the Alicorn Twilight. Sunset is anyone's guess if she'll be released but the one shown is a colour test too.

I've loved the Rainbowfied ponies since they first showed up. I've been studying them and as PrancingStag mentioned the ones with normal eyes and nylon hair up front are the releases so any other variations are colour tests. And there's been quite a few of each.

I don't think that's the one you're thinking of. She's different with eye make up and no tinsel.

I believe this one is the one you're thinking of:

So they can come up with new colors, why can't they come up with new names, or cutie marks? Honestly they could do
Dazzle white
Dazzle blue
Dazzle green
etc. if they want to be that lazy, still better than re-releases.

Ooooh- you are right! I didn't see that.

It's just so odd they'd go to all the trouble to re-design the head mold, change the colors and design just slightly -  and then make a million more of characters we have already.  Seems like making just a few more new characters wouldn't have been that much more difficult, but I suspect that it's less about production cost and more about what they think will sell.   Maybe they are afraid to take risks with new characters.   Seems kind of odd considering how well the "Friendship Favorites" and "Midnight in Canterlot" sets have been selling.

I am very curious to know whether the big talking Nightmare Moon pony ultimately sold as well (or even close) as the big talking Celestia...  if it did, we might see more interesting stuff next year.  That is, if the popularity of the line hasn't faded by then (seems unlikely at this point)

I will say again that I wish Vinyl had been releasec with the yellower fabric for her body, rather than just white. :/

like 1 and half years of a proto vunyl with yellow fur...then they change it to white at the last second to release her. Unless every photo of her actual release is just really crap with lighting.

She's a pale very white yellow, its a subtle shade, like the slight pink of Celestia and the blue-grey of :muffin: Pony.
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Galactica on December 12, 2013, 11:14:03 AM
I think she is "yellow" in the same way that Princess Celestia is "pink"  - both of them appear white, but there is a very, ever so slight- tint.   Personally I like her white- I think a faintly yellowish pony would look like she was hanging out in a smoker's house too long.

Getting back on topic though-  any new Taobao ponies  ?  No?
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Draikinator on December 12, 2013, 12:18:28 PM
She's not yellow, she's a warm white. When you have shades of black and white and grey you're supposed to tint them slightly yellow or blue to make them cool or warm. I mean obviously people can play with that but that's still standard. She's just a warm white. She's not yellow.

Yeah it's been so slow lately! We got such a nice jump with all the rainbow ponies and then... poof. again. bleh.

So far we've seen several glitter ponies with painted manes and tails--Snips and Snails, the yellow berry pegasus, the purple rainbow-cutie-marked pegasus boy, a proper mold Fluttershy, and a Princess Twilight Sparkle (though now that I think, her crown may have been the only painted part on her). Plus several more in Taobao stock pics, which haven't turned up being sold yet. My guess is, that's Wave 10. Fingers crossed!

Do we have confirmation that those are fakies and not prototypes?

...either way I want all of them

(if anyone sets up a group order for these I'd be totally stoked to get in on it!)

Post by: Navi on January 04, 2014, 11:13:05 AM
I'd think fakies.. they don't have as much hair as the real FS ponies do, and the cutie mark looks really small, on RD especially. They're still cute though! I was thinking of picking up a few anyway.

Post by: Jupetto on January 04, 2014, 12:16:50 PM
They are either prototypes or fakies. They don't use the gem eyes anymore in the Rainbow Power series. But it's entirely possible that people working in the factory secretly do their own test runs with their own materials and make weird combinations like these and sell them. It has happened to bootlegs of other toys.

right now its tentatively looking like $15 per pony +fees and shipping- but I might be able to cut a deal with the seller for full sets which is what I'm waiting to hear back about.

Those are really cute fakies-  I wonder though what the quality is like?  I bought those fashion style size Fluttershy unicorn fakies a while back - and they have really really terrible manes/tails (rooted tails- very stiff feeling hair), and the plastic has already started to degrade (they all have a couple of brownish spots on them).  If they are more like the usual mistake/franken ponies on the other hand- or made with nice thick vinyl and nylon hair- than I want a bunch!  They really would make cute customs-

I'll let you know for sure :) I have confirmed pricing with my agent and it looks like I can get them in full sets at $8 per pony- so $40 for a full set (that includes shopping service fees and insurance) right now I am awaiting approval from a mod so I can set up a post for a group order~

Vinyl Scratch/DJ Pon-3 without the Rainbow Power tattoos and hair striping. Of course, given the nature of Rainbow Power, I'd be hard-pressed to say for sure that it isn't literally the RP figure without the rest of the paint applied.

That's what I thought but the listing on ebay says differently.

"These MY LITTLE PONY packages come with one of 24 mystery pony figures and a collector card. Collect all 24! Includes pony figure and collector card. Ages 3 and up."

And...

"Item Condition:
This item is BRAND NEW and has never been used."

Now that I look at it closer though, they must have made a mistake!

fakie auroras: Yeah, I've been waffling on those. My love of fakies and my disinterest in aurora plushies are at serious odds here. $3.50 a pop is a tempting deal, and one of them looks a lot like Surprise... hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

The official applejack has a way more orange body and duller blonde hair doesn't she? I think this is a fake though I would kill for a FS AJ subsitute.  :lookround:
Oh I'm sure that AJ is a fakie-  she probably has a rooted tail and everything.  She looks like those other FS fakies. 

I bet she can't be found because she has already sold out- there are a LOT of people who shop Taobao these days, and a definite void for AJ!

41 pages looked through and I couldn't find the AJ. Either I'm blind or the time difference has done me over and everyone on -GMT has ordered them all :(
I have the others with my agent now and that would have been the final piece to the puzzle. *le sigh*

However my box from my agent is going to cost a fair bit to send anyway so it's probably just as well. The boyf would prob kill me :P

There's a bunch still there! For about 25 yuan which is pretty cheap, just keep looking :)

The fakies plushes are pretty cute- I'll have to admit.  There is a super cute one of Luna that I've been trying to resist (no more plushies!)

I feel a tad ashamed I got that one that looks spotted like a cow- with a cute little hat.  Then learned that she was made based on a custom on DA based on someone's OC!  Wouldn't it be weird to have thousands of plushies of your OC running around out there?

Here's a bunch:

I have that huge Luna and the one on the right in the mail x3 Too cute! Luna is awesome, she's really good quality.

The cow spotted plush is actually a huuge nsfw thing in the brony community not really someones OC per se. Lets just say thats not an udder she has there  >_< But yes it would be weird, although honestly I think id just be really excited!

I've been close to getting that dark blue Luna- she is pretty inexpensive.  They have a few other knock offs up right now that are pretty cute too (all cuter than funrise in my opinion- saddly).  I did remove the "udder" thing from the cow pony.  It kinda looks like maybe they were going for a bosom?  I'm noping not something even worse- but whatever they are, she looks adorable without them. I love that she has freckles, a cute little saddle-pad and socks :D 

What's a "nsfw thing" ?

Unfortunately...it seems like they're completely aware of it, and are attempting to capitalize on the market which created the character. I've noticed Ebay has removed it twice (I've watched group listings with lots of individual choices which included it because I wanted a different item in the listing, and I've gotten several "listing has been removed" notifs).

So I have gathered that the cow pony (the original anyway) was made to have cleavage-  so they added a bra and the filling to her.  Pretty odd on a pony- but easy to remove.  I was more worried that it was man-stuff...

It is even odder to me that the Chinese factory that duplicated her, included that extra

I'd say it's about what they're going for right now. :) At the moment, she may be released, or may not be, so it's a bit of a gamble. If she's not released, she'll keep her value--but if she is, it drops to around $3.

Taobao descriptions are only so trustworthy, but that one looks pretty spot on! Definitely in the McDonalds style. Worthy of its own thread, I'd say, especially since more should be turning up at some point.

(The yellow in the tail is puzzling... Rainbow Power, maybe?)

I'm pretty sure that DJ is the pony that's going to be packaged with the new DJ EQG doll.  The DJ doll was announced with the "rainbow rocks" band line for this year.

my thought against that is that this mold
is exactly like the McDonald's Applejack pose, just with different hair... and it's my understanding that mcds keeps their molds, not the licenser.

could be wrong though

I think you're right I thought yesterday it was MCD for sure, but now thinking about it more, the Celestia and Twilight EQG ponies in the sets have molded hair and brushable tail, plus it explains the yellow stripe, for rainbow rocks, MCD wouldn't do Rainbow Rocks I doubt it.

Could be...however, the Twilight and Celestia one both had those removable gem cutie mark things...hm. I hope if she is a McDos pony then we might see them here at long last. I don't think we've seen any G4 fast food ponies here yet  :huh: Not that I'm surprised but it would be nice.

I keep going back and forth now that I see the horn it looks like low quality, plus the poses I'm thinking MCD again. Wow she has had a lot of releases, so basically if we want a pony bad enough we need to start a use fanbase of that pony, meaning lots of fan art, groups, discussions, tweets, music, videos, customs, t-shirts, talk, etc! And we will probably get them!

They always are a little smaller, i think it has something to do with them having to make a new mold or something.

Yeah, at the first, I thought they were color tests and didn't want to print new eye molds on them, but that didn't account for some of their odd hair colors.

It's ok! They are still cool nonetheless and I still can't wait for mine :)

Importing items from TaoBao is pricey. The markup is plenty fair if the product quality is good. :)

I found the seller's listings, and it's neat to see more shots of the items. I've bought one of these elsewhere, but I only had the TaoBao shots to go by.

The "rooted" tails are... interesting. I might have to take a drill to mine and give her a proper tail!

It's also weird that these apparently use the same molds as Fashion Style ponies, but they're somehow a little smaller!
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Clipper on January 24, 2014, 08:26:33 PM
hi, i listed a few on ebay! so that's me. I was going through a few of these are they are made by hasbro for sure. alot of them have the factory numbers or line numbers?? stamped on them and alot don't. The tails are stuck in the hole like any other pony and then have 4 extra spots with a rooted hair feature (like how the mane is).. so theres no need to drill a hole for a tail?? I don't know why anyone would do that since the tails are like all the other generations just the extra added feature, which maybe some sort of test for hasbro's series of ponies in the future? The ponies are the same plastic as the other FS ponies, and same exact hair that is used on the g4 line.
As for the mark up on the ponies, ponies are marked up because I have to make some sort of profit on them. But theres also shipping fees, ebay fees, taobao fees etc so i'm really not making that much in the end off them.

more pictures.. Some actually have no root plugs in there butt's at all some are just in the hole like normal:

Also I couldn't find any of the fluttershys with factory numbers?? or whatever those are on them. But 4 out of the 5 did. also the Twilight with the numbers is dark purple, where the one without is more of a pinkish purple, which resembles her real color in the toy.
I also read people saying the colors look washed out or something? The pinkie pie is actually the matching pink to the standard version of the toy (and brighter then the target fashion styles I have here in front of me)

Fluttershy is my favorite.. I don't have that many left, but I may consider an army of her lol

Am I the first collector to have these in hand? Also, i've been collecting ponies my whole life, and I'm so thrown off by these..

Please ignore my gross finger lol!! I was scraping some black stuff off a pony and i didnt get to wash it off yet :X

I've got my paws on some too and I still think they're fakies... exceptionally good fakies but still, I don't think they're legit but that's just my opinion. I have AJ and RD on the way too so I'll see what they look like when they arrive :) I have a spare AJ on the way if anyone's interested.

I also added the McDJ to my order and the seller said it would be a month before they can fulfill the order on her. BAH.

Thank you so much for sharing that information, Clipper! I think you're the only one on the Arena who has them in hand! :)

Post by: SeashellnBubbles on January 25, 2014, 09:12:32 AM
I wonder what the extra little taggles of hair ar for at the tail? Might make sense if they were a different color if they were experimenting or what have you...*scratches head* They do look particularly lovely...I'm glad I took the jump and got RD and Fluttershy, but i'm kinda regretting not getting AJ...maybe I can rectify that...

Oh, BTW, how do their manes look? Are there only 2 rows of hair, or 4 as a regular FS pony has?
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Clipper on January 26, 2014, 09:01:11 AM
Only two rows of hair, but it's, I still think it's pretty thick considering less rows. Reminds me more of the g1-3 series. the hair quality is genuine mlp hair.
Also, twilight sparkle has a thinner tail then all the rest from the set. The others have thick tails. If anyone wants more details I'll be happy to provide as much info as possible
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Bergamot on January 26, 2014, 09:59:58 AM
Oh, hey, you know what?

Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie are supposed to be re-packaged in their FS size. Fluttershy's mold is different than it's been in the past, so it might be reasonable to assume that new molds have been made for these all around, hence the slightly smaller size on these mystery ponies!

Once those repackaged FS ponies come out, we'll have to compare them to these mashups/prototypes/fakies/whatevertheyares to see if they are indeed that size!

The new ponies can be seen in the "Styling Size" section here. Check out their faces-- I think their head molds are different than the FS that we've seen before.

Bergamot, those Rarity, Fluttershy & Pinkie Pie are the giant 22cm ones. Much bigger than the normal Fashion Style ponies.

I bought a few of them from Taobao-  it appears for more than they will sell for!  But they are pretty cool and will be great customs-

Actually, being slightly smaller is a good sign that those FS ponies might be fakies as oppose to hasbro made. Slight shrinkage is a common sign of re-casting.

The FS fakies say "2010" on their hooves, so they're not a new, smaller line. Also, they have crystal pony eyes, so they're not prototypes for the very first FS releases.

I got a bunch too-  and they do look legit.  I thought for sure they were fakies when I bought them- but in hand... they are just too perfect- I collect fakies and these are totally different.  They have perfect factory branding, and the high quality pony hair- I am wondering if they are color tests for the rainbow line. 
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: SeashellnBubbles on January 27, 2014, 11:13:57 AM
I'm wondering that myself, Galactica...I don't think they're prototypes, per se, but perhaps tests to see who to make the larger FS ponies of? They appear to be extremely high quality, and i can't understand why a fakie would have the black numbers on the feet, or so much care taken to align the symbols as well as they are. Even the paint for the symbols seems the same as true FS ponies...but i don't think any FS ponies were released with happy eyes AND gem shine in the eyes? Perhaps customizing these guys might be a bad idea...
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Galactica on January 27, 2014, 11:31:17 AM
Actually-  they could also easily be "extras" that the factory hired to make the ponies for MLP printed off to sell specifically on Taobao.   I forgot that I had looked into this issue once before. http://www.qualityinspection.org/china-factory-taobao/

So what happens is that Hasbro might order 100,000 of the earth pony mold printed-  the factory that makes them prints 115,000 and puts the extra 15K together a little differently to sell on Taobao (ie puts the happy eyes and slightly different hair combos-  note that the Rarity pony actually has Celestia hair)

The more that I think about it- the more I think that this is what these ponies probably are.  They seem rather numerous for color tests, which generally are fairly limited (there seem to be hundreds possibly thousands of these odd ponies)

I will confess they are shockingly cute and well made.  I think they will make fantastic customs...

Galactica,do any of yours have those numbers stamped on them?  I have no fluttershys with the numbers and seems only a few in the bunch I got have it.
Also, That's interesting to see the new FS fluttershy is smaller, so that means that hasbro did scale the molding a bit smaller to probably cut costs.

I think these are legit to, and too good of quality to be "fakies" but they may not be actual store runs, which some may consider them to be generic?

I compared them with the old FS ponies and the new FS Fluttershy- 

the Taobao FS ponies are the same size as the new Fluttershy- but a different pose.  I think their nose is just slightly pointier too.  I suspect we might see this size in future FS releases.

Their manes and tails are slightly shorter than the first set of FS ponies too-  and the one that looks like Celery (the original Rarity/Celestia) only has three colors in her mane, not the full spectrum of the first Celery.

I wanted to take some comparison pics, but it was way too late when I got home last night!  Maybe tonight...

Oh and none of my ponies appear to have the black factory batch codes on them...

Hah- I ordered one of these- but she is not hear yet. She was really cheap and I think she looks fun- even if she is just Silver Rains head/tail on Precious Gems body. I'll post photos when she arrives XD

A new McDonalds Rainbow Dash has shown up alongside the Vinyl Scratch. Same mould as the previous one but the hair is painted differently, there's no orange in the tail and the eye is more show accurate.

Lame. I don't think that ever in the history of McD's toys have they just gone "hey, these are fine, let's just re-release them with different colors again! Works for Hasbro!" More thought goes into the toys for the ages 3 and under crowd. Words cannot express how thoroughly disgusted I am at this.

Chances are if there's Luna, she'll be a 2011 Celestia repaint. Not complaining. And despite the fact that Rainbow has the same pose, the coloring to her hair makes such a big difference- I might actually hunt for her this time. Idk, I'm pleased, because they're mcdonalds toys and you can't expect much to begin with lol

Who is the cute cow pony? I see the plushie with the blue hair and cow designs, I thought it was just someones cute oc? Ive never seen her before! *reads posts above* huh? She looks fine to me, I dont know who she is but isshe like a bad naughty fanfic character? So confused! Why dont we talk about her?  I wanna know who she is! Im not finding much on google.

Post Merge: January 15, 2014, 05:49:07 PM

Cute- but a fakie.

 :cry: Maybe some day we will have an official Muffin Pony plush! Guess the closest thing we'll have for a while are the Hot Topic and WeLoveFine backpacks.
Didnt last year somepony said funrise wanted to try to make a muffin pony plush!? :D I dont remember where I read if from but I think someone said that here or on another forum during the pony fair last year!

Oh that cow looking pony is called Milky Way in the brony community. I only know of this because of my brony group XD
I have been looking at those fakie plushies for some time. Specially the Big Luna one. I haven't been able to find her for a reasonable price though.

Wow! That's a really nice improvement! Maybe this time around  McD will have the hot topic mane six, (as I like to call it) :Muffin:, DJ pony, totally not david tennant, octavia, lyra (my favorite!) and bon bon!

I think Muffins is still too much of a hot button thing for McD's to touch with a 10 foot pole. I can hope...I still like her, so...yeah. Not like she's hard to make and color.

I'm not totally surprised there are many kid fans of her, but I wonder if the average kid who likes ponies but isn't an in depth fan would know who she is. My friends 7 and 4 year olds love ponies and talk about them and the cartoon all the time,  but they didn't know who DJ was or Lyra or Dr. Whooves. Why yes, they were looking at my funko ponies. :)

my niece is the same. the new sets with the fav background ponies. my niece asks.
"ummm who is that?" and after "are they in the show? where?"

honestly i only noticed them when people started making customs etc. didn't see them at all in the first season. XD but i watch the show for the mane six. if they make good variations of the ponies i like (preferably smaller) i'm good. my niece has 3 candences and is super excited about it.

Mrrrph.... Another Pinkie.... though, can we really call her Pinkie at this point!? She's a completely different color scheme now. Her body is too dark, same as her mane. The pinks are more magenta, when her body should be a bubblegum hue and her hair a raspberry pink.... Too much red!! And the crystal eyes are back....

My 10 year old niece loves her, she also likes :muffin: Pony, Lyra and BonBon. I think she's "learned" about them through youtube's fanmade videos and her friends at school, as she doesn't speak English yet. (She also thinks that Scootaloo is a boy). She's having very hard time believing that adult males are fans of the show, so she's pretty much oblivious about the whole 'brony' thing.

That would be awesome! It would bring some diversity and a great opportunity  to roll in new ponies! I can imagine singles similar to that prototype Pinkie that come with accessories like a beach ball, towel,  or maybe even a pool playset! Knowing hasbro however that must not be the case and the only way you can get her is some expensive set with a bunch of repeats.. :(

Ofcourse  , they are making her famous :) is a marketing strategy ,you can't blame them :)
she is kinda like their "Paris Hilton"  they want her to have  a name, she then can sell anything later, I think she already does :)

What are the quantities listed of this tropical Pinkie? Unless there are a lot my guess is that she's a prototype that will never be released. Just like with prototype Minty where a few more showed up on TaoBao a year or two after her first appearance. If the crystal eye phase has already passed, it's not likely that they'd bring it back in a future wave.

I wonder though. I'm waiting to see what pony is actually coming with that rainbow castle. It looks like it might be the translucent Princess Twilight that is a similar style to this Pinkie. It's really hard to tell by the promo pic though. Hurry up toy fair!

They are targeting these blind bag new characters at collectors and bronies for sure, they are cheaper to make and they probably sell them better (well duh they release the same characters for singles) It's sad but the truth, I don't think she will be in a three pack I'm thinking she will be is wave 10?
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Violet CLM on February 13, 2014, 11:27:09 AM
No, wave 10 is translucent bodies and solid-colored manes/tails and maybe glitter maybe not we really don't know what's going on. Almost a full wave's worth of prototypes have been found in that style, missing only three or four of the main six.

I feel indifferent to new BB characters :/
I'm trying to get back into collecting them...I could use em later for a made up board game :P

But I want more brushables that aren't The Lame 6, FCMLC (Forever Cutie Mark-Less Crusaders), and Stereotypical, Helpless, Frou Frou Pink Pony Princess (Cadance)  -_-

I think it's interesting you call Cadance helpless, I like her because she always takes the more active role in fighting evil. As far as I've seen, Shining Armor always ends up enchanted/incapacitated/otherwise running support for her. Could you explain why you feel that way? :)

It builds up from the Royal Wedding episode, Cadance could've atleast made an attempt to escape from the Canterlot caves (is that what they're called? ) while just sitting there moping and crying around (we don't know what happened before hand, the "prologue" if you will...maybe she did try to escape but got tired? ) She's an alicorn for pony's sake -_- love conquer's all...so shouldn't she muster up the love to escape herself?  :huh:
Also in Three's a Crowd, again she could've saved herself from the giant flower-worm thing :s
Its pretty much up in the air...I'm not taking Shining Armor's side either :P sorry i'm not good at explaining things  >_<

I just wanna see more toys that aren't Cadance or any of the same characters :( preferably brushables...I don't know what's stopping Hasbro...

Good point about Cadence didn't seem to hard to escape I mean she has wings! Anyways whats stopping hasbro in my opinion is they think the other characters wont sell as well. They also want the mane 6 on the shelf at all times so if a new fan comes looking they will find them, which makes sense but they are forgetting that collectors, bronies, and kids and parents would all like new characters. I had a friend who wanted to buy some ponies from me for his daughter for christmas I showed him a bunch I had as well as a bunch I could pick up for him, and he said she looked over them and said she has them all expect the black one meaning Chrysalis, but he didn't want the set since she had most of the ponies already. So he chose to buy her other things for christmas.

This is what hasbro hears when we speak to them.

Collectors voice "we need boy characters"
Hasbro then releases lots of boys in the blind bags
Collectors voice "we need big mac"
Hasbro then releases him in a three pack blind bag
Collectors voice "we want ponies from previous gens"
Hasbro releases G3 ponies in blind bags and even two g1
Collectors voice "we need more brushables"
Hasbro releases more variations of the same ponies mane 6, princesses, cmc
Collectors voice "we want G4 brushable minty"
Hasbro releases a G4 brushable minty at a store very hard to obtain and comes with all re-releases expensive set.

I think we all need to be extremely specific and stick to working on them better, just like how G4 Minty was an option on emailing hasbro on the site right? We just need to start doing that  with more characters and get more people involved.

What I don't understand is why not just do mail order ponies or put exclusive characters on hasbro toyshop only make the ponies that sell. And see how they do well show them!

How well is glitter wisteria selling? She is the last pony released not in a set, thats not a mane 6. If she isn'tselling well as a single pony, but the sets are selling then hasbro would see no reason to continue making them.

If she had sold out it might have gotten hasbros attention.

She sold really well in my area. We have only 2 targets in my city and she sold out fairly quickly. So did Sunset Shimmer's single release. The only things left in them are the repeats and the glittery pinkie pie

I think that would depend. In the UK the glitter ponies are twice the price of the regular playful ponies so if she sold poorly here I think it would be directly related to this. And as a store exclusive, it limits people's access to her. I guess it would be better to measure how well Sunset Shimmer sold compared to the other ponies in the wave and for what it's worth, she (and AJ) are the ones I see the least of.

All the brushables seem to sell really well. Sure, for the first couple weeks after there was a new release (like Sunset Shimmer), the new ones go fast. But after that, it seems to even out and everything sells.

I would have to disagree in my area I went to a walmart and they had an entire bin filled with mane 6 and they weren't moving at all, like one of those huge display bins since they didn't have room for them and cleaned them because they weren't selling. All the Sunset Shimmers were gone though, and for the blindbags the cakeset is everywhere while the elements of harmony set is hard to find.

The joys of different geographies :) Admittedly, in the two large metropolis Canadian cities that I am talking about, I never saw bins of ponies. Part of the problem of mass amounts of unsold merchandise might just be too much overstock at one time.

I agree, Catlein...i haven't even seen the PTS fashion style, nor Cadance FS :( I go into TrU here and they have loads and loads of the mane 6 stuff. I hear parents and adults, even children, saying.."They're all ones i/he/she already have it!" Noone cares to buy the same think over and over and you can tell how long the stuff has sat there because of the dust on the packaging.

When Cherry Pie and Diamond Rose Brushables came out, I didn’t buy them. I didn’t like the designs. I was going to pass. Then we never got any new brushables so I got them here from other users.

My guess is that Hasbro figures they had too much variety in G3 all at once so they will deprive us of that and only release one or two every once and a while, packaged with repeats. That way we will be so desperate for the new brushable, it won’t matter if we don’t like the design, it won’t matter if we have to buy 5 other ponies we already have to get this new one. We will eat it up.

Brilliant jerks.

Hello!  ^.^
Few days ago I bought a lot of BlindBags on ebay, including Mr. Carrot Cake, Mrs Cake, Granny Smith and others.
First, I noticed that Mr.Carrot Cake doesn't have any symbol on him  :what:

What was my surprise when I found a new one never seen before...a purple haired pony with RD's symbol.
It remained me to Sweetsong, but mine is different.
As you can see on the image below, all the pony is purple-pinkish, body, hair and eyes.

Can someone else help me identify this pony? Or it is a factory error??

Thank You!  :heart:

For those of y'all not recognizing the character.

Wait, wasn't that the same character in the Filly Vanili episode? Maybe this means a Ponytones mini-set!

Sweetsong has blue-green eyes, though, not generic magenta like that one. I think Sweetsong's mane might contrast more with her body, too, but I don't have either one of them to actually compare, so idk.

#5 looks like a reverse color Dainty Daisy and #6 Forsythia in AJ's mold instead of Rarity's.
And now...

Twilight Velvet, and two different Pepperdances. The paint looks glossy, but I think that might just be from harsh lighting, since there are a few other pictures (including a Mr. Cake) with the same gloss but no obvious wrongness to them. Maybe AJ is just the girl they try out colors on? Twilight Velvet is weird, though, since she'd already been released in the Twilight mold in the glitter wave...

Now that is WEIRD. The Pepperdances in particular are bothering me. For one thing, the cutie marks are entirely the wrong color, pink instead of red. Either they're rereleasing her in pink for some reason, or they're fakies...I don't get it.

Also, now that I look again, their necks are really bothering me. It looks to me like it's all one molded piece, or it's molded differently. It's like there's too much plastic around the ponytail, or something...am I totally off base?

Could it be possible that they haven't been put into production yet? (Aside from the ones actually in stores, of course.) Someone in the toy fair thread mentioned that toy fair promo models are sometimes one of a kind, handmade models.

Except for the "Big Wig" Mrs. Cake repaint, and all the wave 10 ponies too, and Thunderlane, and some of the RP/RR singles, and the bluish translucent Princess Twilight with the french flag mane. Basically, the new ones haven't shown up yet because that's why they're "new."

Check TB user "davidness". They've got a few other figures up since then, like the Prism Glider proto with the darker gray hair, and the Ploomette with the same mane/tail color. Plus some others that don't look wrong, but the context makes me wary of them anyhow.

I was the one who actually bought/won her. Her head size weirds me out too, but I was willing to risk feeling creeped out and possibly feel like a fool once she arrives.  I was willing to throw 2x the winning amount at her just to have such an awkward addition to my collection. We'll see what's what when she arrives

IS her body that of Apple Bloom? Or do Fluttershy and AB have different color plastics? I really don't remember and I have no idea where any of my AB's went.

I just compared my AB and Fluttershies body color - it's the same, so that's Fluttershies head on AB's body with a matching pink tail ^^; I saw a similar error with AJ's giant head on Scootaloo's body too. They also have the same body/head color.

Weird, I found my fillies and checked a Flutershy of mine and AB was paler and lighter, she's from the fun at the fair set, and I tsted Scoots and AJ, Scoots was slightly darker. Maybe my AB is discolored?

If it helps, my AJ Applebloom/Scootaloo came from Taobao - I think Fluttershy came from the Canterlot pack, and AJ from a Walmart wave.

Yeah, it has to be AB body with fluttershys head and FS's newer eyes, but the pink mane looks really neon pinkish to me and I don't know which version of FS had this hair color but looking at the picture of this little filly, I think it's maybe FS's older version hair.

The early Fluttershys from the first few waves had that crazy pink hair instead of her soft pink hair. And for some reason... they seem to be sticking Mane 6 heads on the filly bodies that match their color.....

I think these are just extra-mismatched pieces that the factory sticks together every which way and sells through the Taobao market.  Have never been much interested in them since you could accomplish the same thing by swapping around the heads of ponies you already have...

These clear ponies with no cutie marks, and the eyes painted on. They tend to come in either purple or blue, and no one seems to know who does the eyes. Obviously they're not factory, but every seller I've talked to has said they got them like that. And at this point, I've seen them from half a dozen or more sellers. So strange...

I had a yellow one of those as well as the purple one. The eyes are painted a little sloppily but they're still pretty interesting.

I totally understand putting out a mini of him, he seems to be a fan favorite. They've done like three different Spike figures already.

Discord is an insane fan fav, and yet nothing of him yet, and we haven't had a BB Spike is what I meant, but yea really weird on Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo haven't been released I mean they are bigger characters than Sliver Spoon, Diamond Tiara, Snips, Snail, and Twist right?

I've been seeing tons of these the last couple weeks. Lots of different colors but no cutie marks. I assuming they're fakies but there are just so many of them!! Any chance they could be prototypes for an official product? Breezies plush maybe?! Wishful thinking, I know. :)
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Violet CLM on April 01, 2014, 10:06:48 PM
They've been around for some months now, in several different sizes. IIRC they first showed up around the same time as the announcement that G4 would have breezies in the first place, so a lot of people were excited, but that died down when we saw them in the show and there wasn't much visual resemblance. I'm quite sure they're fakies but not everyone may agree... there's some discussion around page 29 of this thread.

I found a box of the TY keyring plushies in a toy store about a week ago and they look much better in person. That photo is really not flattering, though, Fluttershy's eyes are far too close together on all the ones the store had >.<

Edit: I think those TY keychains there are bootlegs. The keychain Twi I have has a red thing holding her tag in place like regular Beanie Babies and the thread holding the clip isn't behind her horn like in that photo but more back between her ears.

please put them in a spoiler and nobody quote that until/unless they're in one :(

They're fakies. First showed up partway down the third page of my pet thread. (http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,345055.0.html) They're made in a bunch of separate pieces, so e.g. Rainbow Dash's head is actually three pieces, one for the front of the mane and one for the back of the mane and one for the head itself. If you separated them out it would look pretty gnarly. Otherwise you can see for yourself: good paint jobs, bad color choices, variety of poses, neat unique cutie marks.

(You've also got Peachy Sweet and Violet Fritter from Wave 9 in there, but the rest of them are fakies.)

That Rarity (with and without wings) has been around for forevers now- (and is surprisingly cute) but WOW- that Big Mac is ADORABLE. Guess I'd better wait until the inevitable clamor over him dies down and he sinks back to the 10-15 price mark that all the rest of the ponies eventually hit.

I have to wonder if the factory making these is copying custom-maker designs.  They (the Chinese knock-off makers) are definitely getting better and better at this- the first set that came out was shockingly ugly.

So with all the new additions the thread was becoming a little cumbersome. Therefore I am running 6 months of "finds" only. I think that's fair - while there is no set guarantee on Taobao/Ebay finds and the date they will, if they do, hit stores, anything older than 6 months seems unlikely to now show up in some way as a release. And 6 months should be long enough that even if someone does not stop by the thread very often they still will not miss anything.

I have not included any of the known fakies - blind bags or plushies in this list. Just the FS ponies which we are all still a little unsure of. However if I have missed something, posted something incorrectly or anyone has thoughts on the change, pretty please just post here.

The crystal/glitter ponies were first found in early 2012 before the Crystal Empire sets started coming out, so pretty much two whole years ago. Not to mention Applejack and Rainbow Dash had the bangs hairstyle, about a year after they discontinued using it. At least one prototype of Applejack and Pinkie Pie (glittery translucent), plus Rarity, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash (pearly translucent) exist, but I think they are very very rare and expensive.

Yeah- the translucent ponies were probably test-shots or prototypes that didn't get made.  There are only a handful of each floating around out there (Fluttershy, Applejack, I think Rarity too)

The same seller on ebay has had the Shining Armor and Big Macintosh plushies-  he/she originally had them at BIN $19.99 but some idiot bid them up-  new ones appear as soon as the auctions end.  Don't go by the names.

Here is the seller and the last, closed auction.  http://www.ebay.com/itm/My-Little-Pony-Shining-Srmor-Plush-Doll-12-POPL8800/360912353141?_trksid=p2050601.c100085.m2372&_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140211132617%26meid%3D6410534930192041391%26pid%3D100085%26prg%3D20140211132617%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D360912353141%26clkid%3D6410535559055663477&_qi=RTM1562569

Seriously people, I would wait.  $50 is too much for a knock-off plushie and they make these by the millions so the price will come down eventually... :)   (although I'll admit I just nabbed the BigM off Taobao)

RD and AJ's eyes look more to scale then the rest of them have. Rarity is the most noticeable when looking at how small these ponies' eyes are. They look funky. Except AJ and RD don't seem to suffer from this.

There's also an 8" (22cm) RD to go with her! That's everyone but Twilight, right?

I think AJs eyebrow helps with the eye size a lot.

Gonna call errorfakie on the Mr. Cake at least, unless he turns up with a different cutie mark or something. (I still want both though)
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Violet CLM on April 26, 2014, 10:42:50 AM
Almost definitely fakies. We've seen those reproduced molds before (but using the standard Mr. Cake and Nurse Snowheart colors) along with the earth pony Forsythia and the darker-maned Prism Glider and all the rest. It would be just too much of a coincidence for them to be real but to use those particular two molds.

(It helps that there aren't very many nurses in the show, and even the closest (http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120205002820/mlp/images/c/c5/UEM1_S02E16.png) has a different eye color.)

[img]

The crystal/glitter ponies were first found in early 2012 before the Crystal Empire sets started coming out, so pretty much two whole years ago. Not to mention Applejack and Rainbow Dash had the bangs hairstyle, about a year after they discontinued using it. At least one prototype of Applejack and Pinkie Pie (glittery translucent), plus Rarity, Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash (pearly translucent) exist, but I think they are very very rare and expensive.

I have the Pinkie and Fluttershy (Pinkie has glitter and Fluttershy is translucent). They popped up around 2010 I believe. Only a handful were produced of each and were unfortunately never released and probably won't be...in that form anyways. I'd love it if they decided to make them.

I'm glad they were already announced as a set, because taobao sellers have gotten a little out of hand with their pricing. Celestia here is priced at a mere $32 USD. The others are a more reasonable (?!) $16/each. I'll wait and pick them up at TRU, I think.

That being said, I like their hair!

Fluttershy is cute- and I love Celestia's socks-  if only they were real socks or sculpted :D

The Taobao sellers have definitely caught on to the new pony thing- they will charge way more than the stores will charge once they eventually get them.  Why? Because people will pay it, that's all.

I have VERY mixed feelings...

On one hand:  I think they're fun for adult collectors, a quirky set.  They are also fun for teenagers who are in that funny stage of "too old for MLP", but also like it.

On the other hand:   Mane 6... :(    and gosh, goth is just not a good fit for the normal target MLP demographic, At. All.

O.o Am I missing something? Those gothy designs look like something my little sister and her friends (8-10ish) would love. There are "goth" dolls aimed at kids, and shows/films that celebrate that kind of thing for kids, so I don't get where people are getting this idea that the target demographic won't like it or that it's not appropriate/is scary - it's just some black paint and designs. If kids couldn't handle a bit of that then Halloween wouldn't be a thing.

I'm interested to see what they'll call the set - are they dressed up for Nightmare Night or are they going to call it something else? :lol:

It's not that I think it's inappropriate for kids or that kids can't handle gothy designs. (I highly doubt kids are gonna see them and think "sock fetish".) It's that I think the style doesn't suit MLP or the characters. I just don't really like that they are trying to make the ponies "edgy". I like them just being cute, colorful ponies. At Toy Fair they called the line Pony Mania (Mane-ia?).

A new line of Rocker Ponies would have been an excellent idea!  The story could include a rock group that comes to ponyville.  We could have a whole 80s decked out set of new ponies AND the mane group could get a punk makeover for the concert so we would have both sets of toys.

I agree- I think the kids will dig the designs.  They like Monster High after all.  In fact, I bet that is what Hasbro is trying to cash in on.   And no, the ponies are not even CLOSE to being scary- and in fact the quasi-goth look is pretty mainstream these days.

Now that 4DE has released pictures of its upcoming Big Mac and Applejack- it looks to me like the factory turning out the above Shining Armor/AJs may be basing their ponies on the 4DE model.  Wonder if it is the factory that 4de is using?

At any rate- the knock off Big Mac (and their other ponies) are super cute.  If I didn't already know that 4DE was coming out with a somewhat nicer/higher quality/licensed version- I'd totally snap him up.

I have SUCH a hard time getting the plushies on Taobao to ship to my agent- no idea why, but they ALWAYS say "not available" even when there is like 100 listings for the same dang pony.  Guess I'll be waiting for an ebay release.  I already picked up Cadance who has now dropped to an average price of $18  :biggrin:

Yea I feel a bit guilty enjoying these new wave bootleg dolls as much as I do... but after getting my Shining Armor and Cadence pair...... ugghhhh they're so cute!!

Candece's crown got trashed in mailing but otherwise I really like her. I also like that she has folded wings. I don't see that very often on plush (or at all, really.)

But this is the 4DE prototype picture for their upcoming Dr. Whooves-  if this guy is for sale on ebay by a Chinese seller, my guess is that you are going to get a somewhat similar, but not identical product (probably that goofy looking Dr. Whooves knock-off pony I've seen around).

I always hear she doesn't test well with the target audience and she's also the least favorite in the adult fandom. I guess it's because she's what some people would call "a country bumpkin". It also doesn't help that her storylines mostly focus on her family and her family business and that she's the least goofy one out of the main cast :/

Always makes me a bit sad that the one G1 import is the least favorite.

I was wondering if it could be that kids find her the hardest to relate with because she has (IMO) so much 'realistic' responsibilities that could be seen in real life too, and kids somehow notice that and feel like maybe she seems too grown up and serious when compared to the others. After all her parents are dead(?) and she's running a huuuge farm and raising her little sister at the same time. She rarely stresses over a random party, studies, cute little critters or fashion disasters, which are more likely to be closer to the 'target audience' (and by that I mean kids). When it comes to the other actually 'grown up' characters like Celestia and Luna, kids simply love them 'cause they're so cool. Lol, I dunno.. :lookround:

I'll probably sew a little lining into it. I've made some clothes for my ponies, and they seem to be a bit more stain resistant? At least, the fabrics I've used... and I've made Sunset Shimmer's black cloak from the beginning of the movie. She's not been stained by the fleece I used. Nor has Trixie by her hat and cape, and that's fleece too. So just line the dress a bit and you should be fine!

Cheese Sandwich blind bag!
Unfortunately the listing he's in seems to only be for a random assortment.

He was already found a few weeks ago, the Taobao seller simply relisted it today :)

It's not really my thing either, but hey, ponies! I don't know if they have a dedicated thread - I figured this was a good a place as any to post them.

Yep, she's been the topic of discussion for most of this page. And the answer is: we don't know. I would speculate she'll be in some two-pack with a princess or something, but we've not seen her in any store listings yet, so that's just speculation.

However-  Hasbro just released the car on its own, http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/my-little-pony-equestria-girls-rainbow-rocks-dj-pon-3-rockin-convertible-vehicle?BR=704&ID=33229  and released a "stamper" version of DJ http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/my-little-pony-equestria-girls-stamp-pad-guitar-and-stamper-shoes-dj-pon-3-doll?BR=704&ID=33221

I looked through Hathorcat's "up and coming" items, and don't see that the more complete DJ has been seen anywhere in package-  I wonder if they ditched the more deluxe looking DJ in favor of the cheaper one and selling the car on its own...?  (I guess it is just as likely though if not more likely, that they will release BOTH dolls- considering how many versions of the Rainbow Rocks we've seen already...)   

Has anyone seen Octavia yet?

Also-  if anyone has been searching (like I have) for some of those wierdo fakie blind-bags-  a seller has a few more!

The new Rainbow Power Rainbow Dash FS has the regular FS wings, so I don't think they've changed the FS model (pity, as I think the wings on the G4Zillas are much prettier than the wings on either the FS or SS releases), I think they just used the different ones with the Styling Strands Fluttershy so that her hair was more accessible.

Post by: Navi on June 19, 2014, 06:45:02 PM
They're sold out now, but they might come up in a different listing later. Although when ponies sell that fast, sellers have learned to jack the price up :P

I'm interested to see where she'll be released!
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Galactica on June 19, 2014, 07:14:47 PM
Given the musical notes on her- there is obviously more to her than we are seeing. She COULD be the SDCC pony or she could just be part of the next FS set.  We've already seen that Hasbro is releasing Applejack again, so makes sense that they would also re-release Celestia- and I bet that the white little Celestias have sold better than the pink...

I'm SO curious to see what the differences are between this one and the original prototype!

I've asked my agent to check with the seller in case she gets more- hope that works, you never know :D

I have a good feeling those white Celestias will show up again!  I think I am actually going to buy 3 of these if they are released, so I can have one with the music notes, one for a custom replica off the popular prototype, and one to do a head/tail/ body swap with Rarity to replicate Celery. I would like to see wingshots of your protoype celestias/celery's to find out which kind of glitter I need!! I know its extra-fine glitter, but is the glitter irregular shaped or hexagonal shaped? Is the glitter pastel or opal/irredecent/rainbowy with deep blues and reds like the Target exclusive FS glitter?

Im just wondering because I have a glitter that matches the Target FS:

I have something very similar, crystal Stickles. It might actually be the same product under a different label, same type of bottle even. It's meant for decorating paper. The crystal color looks very close if not exactly like g4 glitter to me.

The first digit is the year. 4 = 2014
The next three digits stand for the day (001-365). 26 May is the 146th day of 2014. http://www.epochconverter.com/date-and-time/daynumbers-by-year.php

The tail of the music noted Celestia looks (from all you can see in the various shots from a couple sellers) that it's Rarity tail.  The eyes are like the original prototype White Celestia after double checking on mine and I honestly think the wings have been spliced into what was supposed to be Rarity's body which may explain the crudeness. I could be dead wrong, but I think the music notes were maybe thrown in to perplex us all but I can't think of many reasons WHY Celestia of all ponies, would have the music notes randomly on her wing in such a hideous fashion. I don't think I will put too much stock into her being another prototype but have my orders in for her for kicks and giggles and because I may be completely and utterly wrong lol 

also another thought....why would they finally release the much awaited and sought after WHITE celestia with weird out of character body graffiti or anything t all but the classic, beautiful and the wanted white one? I'd like to think that Hasbro would at least havethe sense to release her as she is and not with unwarranted vandalism lol

Eh, she won't be the only character to be released first or exclusively with some sort of variation like that. See e.g. Wysteria, Holly Dash, blind bag DJ Pon-3 and Dr. Hooves...

On the other hand, the current theme is Rainbow Rocks.  In that case, music notes would make perfect sense.  I am also thinking of the sdcc transformer exclusives which are music themed.  Hasbro may be thinking overall theme rather than a precise copy of the original prototype.   After all, they already gave us a more show accurate white Celestia with a wide release with the recent princess packs.

No one is sure atm,  still a mystery. I assume she will be a FS Rainbow Rocks release in stores. I dont think they have listed more on Taobao, theres a few on evilbay but they are very expensive. Some of us feel they may change the hair of her if she is officially released but maybe not so likely the body color since we are seeing white variants of her merch lately.

Actually, the Luna is actually Cadence's mold, but they released her as Luna first to test how well the product would do since Luna is more appealing to the older fans who do most of the customizing. The DaP Luna was always Cadence, just colored differently, so technically Cadence came first XD

Not at all! It's not obvious since she was immediately released as Luna- but if you notice, that's Cadance's hairstyle :)

That makes sense with the hairstyle thing. Ah the whims and weirdness of Hasbro. At least they're still making ponies...on the subject of the "styling" ponies...why do they not have mounds of hair? I'd pay another $5 for a couple more rows of mane and a thicker tail to play with! In the 80's we had the Brush n' Grows, and they had so much hair they had to have it ratcheted back into their bodies :lol: lots more hair, even with fewer accessories, tht'd be cooler! I think if i got one i'd put a fringe on the RD...the forehead would be much less prominent then :)

Oh, and Cadance looks much better in that second photo...perhaps the first one was a proto or the camera was ill adjusted.

Who is that? Twilight? Whats wrong with her cutie mark and wings? I know that can't be Luna because the hair and body colors don't match either of her appearances. Also that dark purple splotch on her rump is suppose to be black and also isn't part of her cutie mark and is suppose to be around her whole rump its wrongly placed and separated. Major fail, I'll save my money for the Funko version.

She has sparkles, though!! And the notes are pointing the right way! I betcha they'll be released together again...this time with the samed resses only with notes on them. Would explain the opposite-side cutie mark on each of them :) a little annoying...probably cost $35 for it, and all I'll want is Celestia! Perhaps i sould go eBay on this one :/

I agree. I'll be a bit sad if she comes in a 2-pack with Celestia again (since I already have a Luna and just need Celestia) but I won't be too broken up over having another pretty fashion Luna if that's the case. :D

Very curious to see the Luna Celestia set! I agree it really looks to be a set.  Very curious to see what the accessories will be.

The nurse pony is super cute- although I wish she had a plastic hat (maybe I'll make her an apoxie one) - I think she will not be hard to find.
I've noticed that when something is an "exclusive" to a U.S. store, it often appears in other non-U.S. stores later. Also, Walgreens is basically on every corner of every city in the U.S., so there will be a LOT of them made...

I finally got my Celestia with the music notes- she actually has the lines and music notes printed on BOTH sides- so maybe they won't be a set after all?

She is, by the way QUITE different than the prototype White Celestia FS-  she is missing the green in her hair and her eye is much larger.

Yeah- the people with the white celestia prototype will be happy- there are a LOT of differences.  Her eye design is totally different.  The hair colors are different, and I think maybe less full.  The tail is just a mix of the hair colors.  I take a comparison pic if I have time this weekend (unless someone beats me to it?)

She's gone for $40 a couple times on eBay, but that's because that was her starting price. There's another one with a much lower starter ending in about 21 hours, which should provide a better idea of what people want to pay for her, though whether she'll continue to be available at that price thereafter is another question.

I would bet dollars to doughnuts she is NOT going to be a Taobao exclusive- I recommend that you do NOT get her from Taobao right now or from ebay, even if you can, because her price is way high, and given the numbers that she is appearing in, and the proven popularity of the white brushable Celestia, I'm POSITIVE she is going to be released at the same time or in a set with the Luna with notes on her wings.

Not sure if anyone is particularly interested- but some comparisons between the prototype White Celestia, and the new one.

The obvious differences to me are the eye shape and size, and the missing seagreen color in her mane and tail.  The texture of the hair feels different too, the new hair more glossy, the old nylon more soft/matted (although that might just be because the prototype is several years old)

Old (back) new (foreground)

That's my listing and it's not blue haired Rarity. It's a rehair. Otherwise you can bet I would not be selling her in a lot of all places.

That's pretty cool! It's just a pity that the G4 breezies, like the rainbow power designs, were basically themed around LOTS AND LOTS OF HAIR, but then these are all molded and identical.

The toys are pretty good matches for the pink and orange-haired ones in the bottom left, but the bottom right? No way.

Post by: Spectrum on July 30, 2014, 03:28:17 AM
I think Hasbro is forgetting that with the original TAF ponies, Hasbro sat down and thought "Hmm, what symbols could be spammed all over a ponies' body without looking like a hot mess?" They didn't just take existing ponies and slap 10 extra cutie marks on them.

Twilight does actually work with this, but wowee Rainbow Dash.
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: moonsugar on July 30, 2014, 05:22:13 AM
I feel there's so much missed potential with the Breezie toys, unfortunately. None of those colours match well. The wings don't match well with the hair or bodies. All the models are exactly identical except a few palette switches here and there. Oh well. Maybe they'll release a breezie-fied Mane 6? I totally think that one in the middle left could be an Applejack, if given the chance.

As for the symbolsplosion blind bags: Ha! I do agree it looks alright on Twilight, though. I'm very fond of the way that her wingtips have highlights on them, like Rainbowfied Fluttershy in the Breezie set.
Title: Re: Taobao/Ebay Finds - Master Thread
Post by: Wardah on July 30, 2014, 08:23:51 AM
I wonder if there is a way to give the Breezies real hair. Well at the very least someone can remove the existing hair and sculpt new hair on them.

Post by: MaronaPossessed on July 30, 2014, 08:32:59 AM
I think the blind bags/figures with multiple cutie marks all over are just the ones the factories have fun with. No way Hasbro would release something like this(unless it's another cheap release coming called "Cutie Pox")

Isn't the Cutie Pox when a whole bunch of different Cutie Marks start appearing? Anyways they have already been releasing ponies like this. I actually think this is the best mini Dash of all the Rainbowfied ones.

The very first hint we ever saw of Rainbow Power was another Rainbow Dash blind bag, and that was my reaction too when I first posted it.

Turned out I was wrong.

Post by: SeashellnBubbles on August 04, 2014, 02:40:52 PM
I think they could have had SO much more fun with the Breezies...maybe Gumby-fy them and give them bendy legs, or at least eyes that give character instead of just looking like someone spiked their tea with GHB!
Cripes, Cutie, Cutie everywhere! I think the only ponies to really pull off the all-over symbols were the G1 Sweetie Babies...we had the TAFs, but I don't think any of them ventured into leg territory...It's a hard one to pull off, and I don't think these did it at all :/

Sorry, no link, but they seem to be everywhere - on ebay and Taobao.  I am trying to resist getting them actually :D

Ooop-  I just saw a set on ebay.  You can search for Set of 6pc My Little Pony and will probably see them.  They've fixed the lack of horns and wings and given them the correct hair color now:

I managed to resist the group lot (which is a pretty good deal) but I caved and got the knock off Dash and Fluttershy- because they are so cute!  I actually like the weird little wings that Hasbro seems to have trotted out for the long-hair Fluttershy and then possibly abandoned... they are weird sure, but not weirder than the other set that seems to grow out of their spine and be terribly misshapen.  They actually did a great job with the Zilla wings so I wish everyone would start copying those...

In that FS lot, it's funny how AJ still has the Pinkie eyes. Rarity also appears to still have the purple/blue/pink hair.

I kind of wish Rarity still had the Pinkie eyes with her horn. Then we could have a super happy Rarity!  :P

I like this Fluttershy! Maybe it's part of the "Cutie Mark Magic" line - the single brushables have a necklace that a cutie mark charm pegs onto, maybe a cutie mark charm snaps into the hole on her wings. I was hoping the Fantastic Flutters would get more characters but I guess this might be the new 'big wing' gimmick.

I was on eBay the other day and saw a listing for a figure that looked like a G4 blind bag, and was described as being 2 inches. It was orange with dark pink hair, and Fluttershy's eyes. Blank flank. The odd thing about it is that it had a molded, unpainted saddle and a stick stuck through it like a carousel pony! It had a peg on top rather than a continuation of the stick, as if it would clip onto a carousel of some sort. The legs were in G4 style, and the body was on scale with the head, so I think the body (saddle and stick and peg and all) is an official mold. It was in China, so is it a prototype? Or is it like an accessory I've never heard of? I don't know what to think...

There used to be a lot of slight variations on that basic pink+blue theme floating around (some more clearly Flitterheart than others) and every once in a while this particular seller dredges up some old stock to sell, so I'm guessing she's another throwback. Unfortunately they don't allow a lot of people to bid on their auctions, so they don't get as much money out of it as most sellers would...
