Was this version of Paint-A-Picture (Mommy Charm) ever produced?

It's on the MLP Wiki, but the version I have is a different color...

Yes.  That's what she's supposed to look like, but she fades to white if you even glance at her, so most of them look like that.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a perfect one like that?    I have a completely faded one and one which is a bit mottled and inbetween!

How are we supposed to keep them blue ? What fades them ?

It's basically a tiny example of regrind - the pigments separate very quickly and go even faster under exposure to natural light.

Aw, what a pity. Well, that's sad. There's nothing we can do about it, it's regrind. =(

That's crazy! I thought the blue version was a variant or a UK version! Mine has no mottling and I just assumed that was her natural color. I'm assuming that most colors DON'T have this problem, and that it must be an issue with that particular blue pigment?

I am guessing this is a charm I don't have, as I've never heard of this before. She looks cute in both shades though.

Yeah, she's the only charm I can think of that does that.
