Odd Dollymix Minty?

[Whippycorn]

Hello all! 

I have an oddball Dollymix Minty I want to sell, but I'm not sure what's going on with her. She has a white mane but a yellow tail!

Can anyone tell me about her please? Does this happen often with Dollymix, and does it affect her value at all?

IIRC Dollymix Mintys was initially produced had the yellow tail, but then they switched over to the white tail.  So her strange yellow tail is "factory".    I'm not sure how it affects her value.

Yes, Minty and Mainsail were both originally produced with incorrectly coloured tails.  The error was only corrected when the second wave was released three or four months later.  So both versions were probably produced in equal numbers and I doubt it affects her value really.

Sorry, I can't help on value, I struggled to sell some on eBay recently but I think there's still a market for them outside the UK.  (International shipping probably put people off of buying mine!)

My dollymix Minty has the same issue as yours, it really threw me for a loop when I first saw her, since then I've seen a few with the yellow tails and a few with white. I want to get a second wave Minty someday to add to my collection with the correct colors since I don't think I can bring myself to change the one I have since she's in like new condition.
I'm not sure on prices though, sorry. I haven't been actively seeking out dollymix girls for a while.

Thanks for educating me everyone!

I have never seen her with the yellow tail before, it's funny that they just randomly gave her a yellow tail for a whole wave.

I like it.  I think it makes her extra cute!
