Title: Are DG fakies still customised?
Post by: AlexK on February 13, 2012, 02:14:05 PM
I don't see so many people using DG fakie babies for customs anymore and I remember a time when there were loads of them around.

Are they still sold in stores?

Does anyone have any for sale/trade?

Also, I'd like to see some DG fakie customs! So please post yours here! Here are mine to start you off...

I haven't seen them in stores. I don't think they are manufactured anymore which makes me sad. I think because of this people tend to hoard them.

I so wish they'd sold those fakies over here! I want a pale yellow and a Butterscotch colour one so my 2 fave ponies can have foals!

Nope...they were put on an endangered species list and anyone who customizes them is in violation of six different international treaties and will be banned to the moon.

 :silly:

sometimes I feel this way XD They are getting so hard to find that I dare not customize mine. Not to preserve the ponies, but because I have so few of them that I want to make sure they go to good use!

 I might have those colors (I also dye them to get the color I want).  I'll check!

I have one... haven't customized her yet.  My daughter sort of claimed her... I want to make a baby applejack from her (she's orange... sooo cute)

I still have a lot of DGs myself, but since they aren't available in stores anymore I only use them on special occasions, too.

Jupi, I Love those rainbow babies; were they at the 2007 Fair?

Here's a few of mine. :D I've done a ton of them , too! :P

memphis? why yes they were -- the whole set ended up being sold to the big bald guy at the door giving out the passes :lol:

I thought they might be hard to come by now. I used to see loads of them sold in lots on ebay and then they seemed to disappear. I love all the pics you have posted.

Jupi-the rainbow babies really are awesome!

Kcherry-love those HP house ponies-I work at WB studios on the Making of Harry Potter so I go mad for anything HP these days!

Let's keep those babies coming-anyone else have any pics to show?

I still customize them!!! But they aren't sold in stores anymore so they are hard to get a hold of sometimes :C

I still check the stores every so often to see if some will reappear but so far I've come up empty. :( It's too bad because they really are fun to customize.

Jupi, I don't see your sunburned baby which is one of my all time fave baby pony customs. :lovey:

Cherry, I love that baby Posey. :heart: The green eyelashes are awesome.

Here are the ones I've done.

A set of Seasonal Babies.

Pop-they are so pretty. I remember your coconut and pineapple babies (Pina colada?) from when you first showed them off. I remember being so in awe of the realism of the coconut and loving the freckles.

i have a scary one i "customized" about 9 years ago. I used beads for hair and stickers for the symbols all over her body... i should get a pic... I waaasss thinking of redoing her differently, because i always wanted to make her into a cherry treats, but i kinda have an odd affection for the poor thing...  maybe because it was one of my first customs, even though i was just testing to see if ii could use beads for hair and stickers would stick....

I totally adore them. They make super cute customs. I can never seem to get the eyes right though when I try....

I saw them in a Roses near me recently, actually. Along with the crumpet pose fakie.

I have a couple that I've been meaning to customize, but I haven't gotten around to it lately. @_@

Everyone's customs look so pretty! :3

I've made 3 DG customs and I have one blank one who I am saving for a special custom

Baby Vessa and Baby Dursi, my 3rd and 4th customs (made at the same time, so I'm not really sure which should come first.  I think Dursi was the first of the 2 to be finished though)

I love these things!  I had a small hoarde of them, but finally decided I was never going to anything with them so I sold them on. 

And Panda, stop posting those darn hippos!  I can't stand the cute!! :lovey:
