Does anyone have any info on this adorable pin?
« on: March 29, 2014, 01:23:19 PM »
I won this auction in a quick BIN off of eBay:

http://m.ebay.ca/itm/331163265857?txnId=963583110014

I've not seen one like it and have been unable to find a similar one in any archives of websites. Was it only available in Europe? Were there other badges  like it made? I was attracted to the overall size of it, which is a shock, since I don't typically like such things, but she's SO CUTE!
Any info would be appreciated as well as a PC to make sure I got her for a good price :) thanks all!!

Awesome!!

I've had the same pin for many years, but never have seen another!

I did, however, many years ago see the same type of Bowtie in an auction...except she was attached to a clock/radio.

I hope someone knows of her origin.  Maybe she was a fan club exclusive?

Does your pin look the same front and back? I wonder if it was from a clock or something origionally... I dunno!

Congrats on getting this little gem seashellnBubbles, I've been looking for one for a while now, and while they don't seem to be exactly rare, I am struggling somewhat.
It was made by Bluebird, and I don't believe there were other mlp characters made in this line. Here is a photo of it moc:

I am no expert, but I would say you got a good price, I'd happily pay $10 for her loose, vgc /$20-25 moc.

I'll happily sell her to you when she gets here, Fox, if she's been a want for you for a while :) I just thought she was super nifty and bought her to sell on anyway!

That's very kind of you, but I wasn't fishing for you to sell her to me, I was just saying that she can be tricky to find sometimes.

She came on a few things this way - a clock, a bank and something else I cant remember. But as mentioned she was also sold as a badge. Bluebird did it with a few different toy lines at the time. Congrats on such a cute find!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

Someone needs to tell Jennifer2004 about this thread. I know she loves Bowtie. :)
