Title: Help find out a pony // Crumpet Fakie! (Thank you!)
Post by: keikokukien on January 28, 2012, 03:25:34 PM
Hello, guys and gals! A friend gave me this little girl for my herd and I am stumped. I think this is a fakie or someone's attempt at customization? She's cute, but it would be really nice to know where she came from...

In a few months, I'm going to see one of my favorite bands...and if I can customize this girlie, I'm going to make her themed around the band. I appreciate any help...I also wanted to know if there was a tutorial somewhere about painting customs...I have some G4 ponies ready to customize, but I don't know how yet...Anyways, thanks again everyone!

(Also, sorry...I don't know how to add just the image instead of the link on a forum.)

Yes, she is a fakie. A crumpet one to be exact.

She is a fakie alright :) there are heaps of different colours in this mould, by different companies. She looks like she is supposed to I think too - some do have that odd eyeshadow thing going on and possibly even painted hooves.

Congrats, they are a really cute fakie. Commonly known as "crumpet post fakies" or "frumpets"

If you look in the Customs forums, there's more tutorials than you could ever need.   Also just google "my little pony custom tutorials" and enjoy!

That is a fakie.

Oh! Thank you guys! Now that I know, I'm going to keep her the way she is...And I'll change the subject if I can figure that out. ^^;

Fingerpaints, "frumpet"! What a cute name. Thank you for that information.

Okay...Cool to know. I don't usually collect fakies, but I'm definitely keeping her now.  thanks for that link!

And StoryDreamer, thanks! I'll look a little deeper in that forum now.

Kittybethy, she almost had me fooled! There was something off about her as far as being a G1...so I'm glad to know what she really is. :)

 I have a couple of them, though I never thought of them as crumpet fakies, all of mine have the imprint of Seaflower. I find it funny someone managed a reverse mold of her. They are sweet, I almost always pick them up from the Thrift store :)

Yay for frumpets! There are oodles of different ones. I have a rather large army under my bed...
