When I see a G4 at the fleamarket people are quick to inform me it's a highly sought after collectible and they need at least 10€ for a common Twilight Sparkle

There are a TON more fakies on the s/h market nowadays than there ever were when we carbooted for G1 back in the mid nineties. It's like the fakie market exploded even more in the last five or six years. Nine times out of ten the ponies you see second hand are fakies, whereas after G1 ended, you'd see a lot of actual G1 ponies. True, lots of Peachy, Lickety, CJ etc, but ponies...not so much fakies.At least, speaking for here in the UK.We did have some fakies around but most of the fakies I've ever had from G1 lots came from the US.

She's pretty! Cool beans! Where'd you find her?
I can now practically see a tidal wave of G4 washing over all fleamarkets and thriftstores (as if it weren't overkill already )
