My little pony backcard fakies

I have had these for about 5 years, my partner used to work in an arcade and he was unboxing some cheap nasty gifts that you put on the 2p machines and came across some pony toys, in which he recognised the pictures on the small backcards attatched to them.

 I have no idea what the toys were and he cannot remember but they were small fakie ponies of some sort (now I been saying they better not had been fakie petites lol) coz he didnt bring any of the toys home just one of each of the backcards.
 
(also now thinking about it we both agreed why didnt he bring all the backcards back, as I think they went in the bin and only was toy was used as prizes!!!)

Hope you enjoy them :)

Oh they're gorgeous :)

They actually remind me of the art a member of the MLPTP used to do years and years ago. Can't for the life of me remember his name (M something) but they looked very much like that art you have there :)

Absolutely lovely finds :D

I found a photobucket account that has most of these images on it and some of them have signatures on them so this might possibly be a case of art theft. But I can't read cursive so i'll just leave the link here http://smg.beta.photobucket.com/user/mmmday/media/My%20Little%20Pony/CANDYCANE.jpg.html?sort=4&o=7

If I can read cursive right and if I remember correctly it's Marco. That name does ring a bell anyway :P

Yep it seems like the artist's name is Marco Albiero if my googling skills are what they used to be. Seems like this isn't the first time his art has been stolen like this either?

That is sad that his art was stolen :(  Those are very cute and I do wonder what the yours looked like that were with them?

Yep, that is Marco's art all right.  :(  Sad to see such rampant art theft of his works...

I can see why they chose his work to steal though. The images are awesome.

If I remember correctly, wasn't it Marco's images that were stolen to produce the MLP playing cards?

Hmm maybe he gave permission? Or maybe it's just art theft :x

Man he does get his art lifted a ton, maybe because it is so Hasbroesc?  They are neat to have and thanks for sharing.  That Minty one is to die for.

Marco's art is still showing up on stuff after all these years. It is such beautiful art.  Congrats on a collection of the tags :-)
