Hello, new fakie!

[Lorelei Redfern]

what dollar store  did you find it in?   i think tis  cute.

[Loona]

I keep thinking the pony on the box, wearing the crown, has an recycling sign for a symbol, since the flowers blend in with her body.

lol, at first sight I also thought it's a recycling symbol!
I love all the little accessories she has

[Sweetie-Swirl]

This pony looks very cute! I wish they sold fakies like this in Belgium...

[lisey_baby]

I have that fakie, except mine was in a slightly different box but the inside was the same. They were in the Pound Stores in the uk.

Oooo I have to go hunt these down, great for customs and one for my collection

Hi, Lorelei!  I don't know where you're located, but according to their website, Dollarama stores are Canada-wide.  I didn't see these at the Dollarama I usually frequent, but another (larger) one in the general vicinity.  Sometimes they lag a bit in stock, I guess.

Ahahaha!  Me too, that exactely what I thought!  I was like, wow Earth conscious fakies...that's new.  How funny is that?!

[Lorelei Redfern]

i'm in the states

[sweetstuff]

The artwork is just fantastic (LOL). I wonder if Dollar Tree would ever get them (or Family Dollar)?

I like it! Thanks for sharing.

How big it is? It looks bigger than a regular G3.

Did the store have lots of them?

[Spring Renewal]

That fakie is actually really cute. And now I want a pony with a recycle symbol, Hasbro should make one for Earth Day. 

[GoodyGumdrop]

That's a real nice looking fakie. *wants one*

She's actually just a smidge smaller than a standard G3.  I deboxed her to compare.  Thank you, Applejack, for standing as a Pony Yardstick!  And I couldn't resist playing with the hair clips Ms. Fakie came with.   I may be forty, but darned if I'm not still a kid at heart.

Her tail is also rooted like the mane but kind of in a circle, and it's rather short compared to a True Pony.  She also has, um, a bit of a receding hairline on top?  But she's totally cute, and with a bit of stage dressing, it won't show so much.  I was kind of thinking "straw garden hat," since I'm still planning to do a recycle triangle style of symbol for her, maybe with leaves in a garland down one leg or something.  We'll see how it goes.  And how deft I am with a paintbrush.  I may be more daft than deft!

And the store had piles, literally.  At least three dozen on two shelves, plus boxes of little single G3 style fakies.  (I don't have a photo to hand, but I'd posted them a month or so ago here: http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php/topic,301095.msg273459.html#msg273459 )

I knew I had seen them somewhere before

[lisey_baby]

Even though I love these fakies, I'm always curious how the companies are able to get away with such close copies. I know Hasbro sells the licensing for the bodies, I wonder if it is the same for the artwork on the box.
