Do you have her? Your thoughts? Share some more pics!
She's pretty with or without flocking. I like this version.
Changing things up. The first week of every month will feature G1's then, 2nd=G2's, 3rd=G3's, 4th= G4's/misc. merch/play sets, 5th week, well, that's when we start throwing fakies...

Don't have this one, but have a So Soft. Same with Cupcake. Probably because the Scandinavians are more HTF

I think I have this one, but I'm not 100% sure. She came to me years ago deflocked, bald, and with her symbol removed in a bait lot, but there's a shadow of a bird symbol if I hold it in the right light (and really, how many white ponies are in this pose?). Not sure if she's Scandinavian, but I think I got that particular lot from overseas so it's entirely possible.

I have one and I love her. Got her for a steal. Don't have any pics on my laptop though.

I selected 'want', but I'm not necessarily after the Scandinavian version specifically; I'd be just as happy with a deflocked US Truly. I just want a Truly :p She's so pretty, I love her symbol.

Thank you to the POTD for not calling her NSS Truly :) That's a step in the right direction.
I actually have two *lol*. The first one I got but wasn't too sure if she was a deflock. She came from Germany. The other was a trade I did later on, I think from Iceland.
(They are using the same stand in the pictures, it actually belongs to SS truly).
People used to believe that the Scandinavian Truly had brown eyeliner, while a deflock had black. My first one had black eyeliner so I wasn't certain about her. She lived in my university room for a long while, and one year I took her to Ponycon, so some other people experienced in deflocking and such could examine her.
Ultimately she has no evidence of being deflocked - no stray fur, no tell tale plastic damage, no symbol damage, nothing at all to indicate she was ever a SS release. So I believe she's an original Pony Friends Truly (that is their proper set name). But I have still kept both as they are different - the second has brown eyeliner.
End note to this, a lot of the Movie Star ponies in the UK have black eyeliner, and so does my MOC Shady, so the eyeliner theory seems arbitrary - but Truly is one of the harder deflocks to identify because she is SO similar to the SS in pose/colour/etc. So I feel like it's good if you are unsure about your pony to get second and third opinions on it.
I would love to have their backcard. I have a scan of it on my website from some kind folk in Scandinavia, but I am still missing it from my collection. It doesn't have to be Truly's card, but just the card with that set on :/

I cast a "want her" vote, but I'm not necessarily after her. I have a So Soft Truly that my best friends traded to me when I was little whose flocking is really terrible now. I've thought about deflocking her, but I'm not sure if I actually will. I do like the sleek, non-flocked look of this one.
