Hey all, I went to the Beijing toy market. No actual ponies which is a shame (especially as I saw some comic con exclusives from other brands I'm not interested in... boo). They did however have my little horses

soooooo... blatant. Not a fakie collector, so they stayed behind. But I thought some of you might be interested to see them.

Wow, they just steal moulds and redo them? The artwork looks unaltered too, only the logo is different.
-
Lol. That's funny!

and even then, not that different. The do not look like they are great quality. But I do think the new born cuties having long hair is kinda... cool?... weird?... something anyway.

Eh, well that's the Chinese for you. They try to make as much money as possible with spending as little as possible. God forbid they have original ideas!
Oh! Didn't know Hasbro was a Chinese company ;)

Hasbro as a company itself originates from the US, but just like all major toy companies, the major factories are in China and east Asia.

I think the NBs with hair are adorable. If shipping was not hideous, I might ask you to get a couple. Ah well.

The winking smiley was intended to indicate sarcasm. Sorry it wasn't quite clear.

On the subject: as someone who is very uneducated when it comes to G3/G3.5 I find those fakies to look incredible! If it wasn't for the different name and the missing Hasbro logo, I would have thought it was the real thing! :biggrin:
-
The long haired newborn fakie is amazing, If I had seen it I would have bought it!!
-
I love "The House of Happiness" text on the baby Pinkie Pie copy's box. What is that about? And of course, there's a picture of Scootaloo even though Pinkie is in the box! These are actually really good copies though, because the accessories are actually relevant, and they didn't give baby Pinkie random things like a hat, a banana, and a fan, etc like some fakies get!

I feel bad about what I said earlier that I went and cried in the shower. I'm sorry. :yikes:
-
Lol...I like the "My Little Buddy" tag on the box in the background...:)
-
Wow,they're cute!And nice accessories!Love them :)
-
Those are actually pretty decent looking fakies lol
-
That's funny. I'v seen My Pretty Pony, My Lovely Pony, etc. but never My Little Horse. LOL.
-
I love "My Little Buddy"lol!
-
Awww, that newborn cutie is just precious! I can't help but wonder if maybe we will get them, or at least something incredibly similar here in the US. :good:

Is that a fake Bratz next to them?

It sure is. They had fake everything. I personally really liked the fake sylvanian families. I ummed and ahhed over getting them, as I actually really like sylvanian playsets, but they're so expensive. I didn't get any in the end.
-
Did they have fake Monster High? I know some people here are looking for certain ones of them. Also I'm ever so slightly curious about any Liv/Moxie Teenz fakies (ones with glass eyes).

I noticed the Sylvanian fakes in your pics. I have a few fake Sylvanian buildings in my collection. I love customisinf Sylvanian buildings and I find that I can bring myself to customise them more easily than the originals because sometimes I don't want to potentially 'destroy' and original building. The same goes for the figurines.

I want to go to the house of happiness. It sounds happy.

Not that I noticed, and I probably would have noticed because I collect MH too. There was a distinct lack of 'girls toys' that weren't barbie actually.
One shop however had the most phenomenal collection of collects edition transformers, including comic con exclusives. I don't collect transformers, but I could have gone nuts buying stuff from them had I been made of money.

It's only named that to throw you off, its more like a torture chamber.
