Identifying fakie?

[ThriftyPony]

I looked up what you had said and actually found a picture of a bunch of fakies and my pony was one of them!

Haven't found anything but that, though.

Lol - that's from my pony site. They're my fakies. They are fakes of another fake called Remcos. These fake fakies are smaller and sometimes made by JaRu but other companies have used the molds. They also sold them in two packs at Walmart years ago for 88 cents! Crazy.

I used to have some like that!

Remcos are always marked with their name. These guys are JaRu, but there is also another unknown brand of made in China fakie of Remco ponies. So there are Remco fakies to the third degree. The unknown brand has hair that practically rots out of the head in time. Easy to tell unknown from JaRu because unknown has painted hoofs like Remco but JaRu doesn't.

Aren't they fakies of Remco fakies?
 

This.

Hmm...is this fakie's hair made of different stuff that real ponies? I tried to defrizz it using the same methods I had done with my real ponies and the hair melted off  Is it the hair, or did I accidentaly set the hair iron too hot?
Also, is there a good way to clean her body? She looks awfully dingy even though I've scrubbed her with antibacterial soap.

I think they're made of much softer and less stable plastic. I wouldn't use any heat on them. You can try a magic eraser on them, but they aren't made well to begin with and some of the dinginess might just be from the plastic having dirt in it before it was even poured into the mold. Seriously, JaRu stuff comes out of the package looking pretty rough.

Hm...It'll be a challenge to make her look nice again, then! Is there anything I could do to make her look better?
