Title: Mystery fakie/Horse Toy ID
Post by: Shimmer Mist on January 15, 2019, 02:30:19 AM

I need some help identifying some Fakie-ish horse toys. Google searches haven't been fruitful and I was wondering if anyone here is familiar with them.

First is a small Mattel/Viacom horse

Second is a real mystery Fakie. I haven't found anything like her on the Fakie guide websites, never found anything similar out in the wild, nor in Ebay posts.

She does have some markings on the bottom of her feet but they look like they were hand-carved into the original mold before it was cast instead of a stamp. Kinda hard to see in this photo

But the hoof on the left has a "Copyright Long Key" and the other just says "China". Her other side doesn't have a symbol, either. It's just blank.

The last is a small fantasy horse with a wing flap gimmick.

It does have some markings on its legs but I couldn't get any photos that weren't blurry. It's REALLY hard to read since it's so tiny, but, I believe it says "1996(8?) Empire IND. INC. China".

The viacom horse may have been from a Dora the explorer play set!  Dora the Explorer LOVES PONIES ADVENTURE playset

I never would have guessed!But, yes! The eyes are VERY Dora-styled!  Haven't found this one precisely on google, but, the same mold being used for various other Dora horse sets. Thank you!

that last one is definitely a "fantasy filly"  - not really a fakie, it is a very cute line of fantasy model horses from the 1990s.

YES! Thank you! I'm kind of excited to find out it's part of a toyline and not some one-off thing. I think I need more of them if I can find them.

The purple winged fakie looks like a fakie of a Chap Mei fakie!
