Copyfake Blind Bag Ponies
« on: May 11, 2014, 01:19:47 PM »
I just wanted to share some recent additions to my "Bling Bag" sized collection.

I do not know how to classify them exactly aside from "copyfake" or bootleg. I picked them up from a  random market on my most recent trip to China. I like supporting the official releases and do not like buying bootlegs but I couldn't help myself when I saw these cuties in the market. :D

They appear to have been made using the official molds and eye patterns but they don't have symbols and are unknown color combinations.

Have similar color combinations been found on Taobao or other auction sites?

My favorite of the bunch - "Nightmare Rarity"

She is most definitely Nightmare Rarity since she is in Rarity's pose and and was made with black plastic.

I would love it if they made a set of bling bags based on characters from IDW's comic book! How cool would that be???:D Hasbro are you reading this? :D

(PS I apologize for the large watermarks but I don't want to see these end up on ebay or other auction sites wrongfully :P)

General thread over here

If you got them at a market, were they packaged in any way? We've not yet seen packaging for this particular line.

Omigosh! I didn't know they were so plentiful in so many different variations! :D

They didn't have any special packaging. They were individually wrapped in resealable polybags and all 7 of  them were in one large resealable polybag.

I wish I had known about the other color combinations, I might have asked the vendor about that. I asked him for more and he just brought out handfuls of the exact same 7.  The vendor had only bootleg toys at their booth, like those cheap fake "barbies" that have been hanging around since dollar stores of the 80s.

Seems like some factory got a hold of the mold and those are the easiest color combinations to  do?

I will have to follow the other thread now. :D

I like how colorful the boys are compared to the normal boy blinds.
I want that pink stallion.

I recently saw an all gold/yellow Celestia and a  purple with cutie mark RBdash on ebay. Was tempted...

The purple RD's an odd one. There's no evidence I'm aware of that she's a fakie, but there's no real pony that matches her in all but cutie mark. Even Sweetsong has a different eye color.
