She's so amazing.

Oh wow, that's so cool! I didn't realise new ponies were still being discovered!

Congratulations! It's such a cutie! And that baby Bowtie is lovely ^^

Well bad news. It seems someone on the community came forward saying that a matching bait baby was offered to them a while back by the same person I bought this pony from.
This pony is now under scrutiny for authenticity. I am being sent comparison photos of the matching bait baby. I will update the post shortly. Ugh. I was so hoping that Colombia had made a baby applejack too. And now like Argentina we have to be skeptical of what ponies turn up. I am requesting a refund of my money too.

Oh no

Do you have photographs of the resin inside her head perhaps? Maybe thats something we are going to have to watch for as a tell tail sign.

I shall keep everything crossed this is not true...

In afraid it is true. This baby is not real and I have been presented with evidence that proves this baby was repainted with factory paint and new symbols were put on with factory paint. She was originally a baby bluebelle. The person I bought her from sold the bait pony to someone and it was customized and showed up on the colombian market for sale. I don't think the person I bought her from had any part in the scam.
I will be getting my money back and this baby will be sent back to where she came from.

This is a very good caution to the community. New finds need to be thoroughly examined for authenticity as new variants are exceedingly rare now a days. If it looks too good to be true it might be.
This is not to say that we might not find undiscovered ponies in the future though. I hope we do. But it looks like some people will go to crazy lengths to present ponies as real when they are forged.

oh sad...I am so sorry ...that sux

[Ember1]

It's better we find out now than the whole community tricked into believing a variant exists when it doesn't.

This is sad, I am disappointed for you Ember1.

So this little Baby is like those Argies that show up with the wrong symbols then? I would think that does make her a  custom and no doubt  not worth what you paid for her. I thi k your seller must feel deceived too.

What a mess and I hope you can get it straightened out.

Love pkw xxx
