Your opinion on Fakies?

[Shrojjy]

What's your opinion on fakies? I just picked up a pink Boley today, so my train of thought led to this, hehe.

I honestly love them, as they're part of my childhood herd.

[Baby Sugarberry]

Never had any, don't want any. X3
I can understand why some people love them if they were part of their childhood toys though.

[Snapdragon]

I love 'em! ^^ Not sure why, I just think they're cute! They were also part of my childhood herd, so I am a bit biased towards them.

I used to avoid them like the plague, but because of this site, my heart has opened up for them a little.  Some of them anyway...  Takaras are my favorites.

I think I would have been horrified as a child if someone had bought me a fakie. I was terribly spoiled and very picky

[scarletjul]

I'm not particularly fond of them but I can see why some people love them.  Personally, I'd just rather save the room for actual Hasbro ponies.

Same! Apart from my glow-in-the-dark donkey pose fakie (who I would LOVE to replace one day) and a couple of those foot-raised fakies that you get with the little rainbow-bobbled hair thing (please excuse my lack of willpower, it's just gone midnight, I usually turn in at 10pm, I just have killer insomnia atm) i would have been shocked and upset at getting a non-Hasbro pony! Now I love most of them; the SHS and DnW fakies, and the ones with glass eyes I can leave, the rest are cool though

I love DG fakies. Don't care for the others!

[Jenn77]

I am okay with some of them like the Takaras and the DG baby fakies.. Some though are just plain scary lol

[MissSleepless]

It very much depends on the fakie

I have some truly scary ones that shant be seeing the light of day anytime soon, and some sweeter ones I'll probably clean up.

But I never ever thought I'd be so excited about a fakie until the day I got my fakie takara. xD

I like most of em ok, but I absolutely love Lanards~!

[Squirrelypaws]

For me, it depends on the fakie. Most of the ones I've personally come across are ugly beyond belief, but there are some that I actually found to be cute.

[Shrojjy]

I was expecting the DG babies when I went today. They're so adorable! All that was left was the Boley though.

I'm okay with them, I have a small attachment towards the Cabbage Patch fakies since I had a couple mommy-and-baby sets in my childhood herd. There was a light yellow Cabbage Patch fakie mommy with green hair that I named Yogurt, I loved her to pieces.

I won't be collecting any, however I do like the more official-looking (or even Hasbro mold) fakies because they're useful for custom bait, I won't have to take apart a real pony if I have a fakie that looks just like one. c:

I really don't like them much especially the ones that are blatantly copying off of Hasbro. Most of them are really weird looking to me. In fact, I don't like G2s because to me they look like fakies instead of official MLP.  The one exception to that is the yellow glow in the dark fakie I had when I was little. She was so pretty and glittery and....glowy. Man I loved her. Lost or donated her long ago though.

Edit: Guess another exception would be what's being termed the Cabbage Patch fakies here a lot. They're actually called Crimp n' Curl ponies. I had a purple Crimp n' Curl pony that came with the lovely name of Springsong. I had so much fun crimping and curling her hair.
