Urgent! Should I take the risk? (Blue Belle variant?)
« on: February 11, 2013, 09:01:25 AM »
I am seconds from getting this little girl, however I can't find a scrap of information about her!

What Italian variant of, what I'm assuming to be Blue Belle, has green hair, a yellow body, and (9) green stars?
Would she even count as a Blue Belle?


Should I take the risk of getting her, or did I completely botch something up and miss any info there was about her? :P

AUgH what :(
Aww... I guess someone got her. Siiigh, I shouldn't have waited like that... :(

Still, I'm really curious about some info. I know I'm putting salt into my own wound, but yeah.

I'm so bummed.... siiighs I probably shouldn't have posted here before buying ;-;

That is actually a Colombian pony, they used the Italian Molds for some ponies.
I thought it was a Fair Price.  If you check the Nirvana Gallery you will find another Italy stamp Colombian in there.

Here's the auction:


http://www.ebay.com/itm/MY-LITTLE-PONY-YELLOW-GREEN-STARS-ITALY-HAIR-GREEN-RARE-HASBRO1982-/300860399413?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&nma=true&si=yxEsw3XxZ3l8HN9dh2B5GVQB%252BoY%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

So she's Colombian? The seller didn't look to be a collector, or perhaps there was a translation barrier, but I was especially curious since I couldn't find any other pics on her-- except for ones from this auction.

Guess she's going from my cart to my wishlist.

Does indeed look like very good condition. It can be confusing that some of the Colombians still say Italy!

I'll definitely be kicking myself for missing her my literally SECONDS for a long while. :drunk: As much as it hurts to say, it's probably for the best... for my bank account. Not my pride! :throw:

But thank you for the info! Now I know what to look out for. I'm not too well versed on Colombians mostly because there just seems to be nearly countless variants when it comes to color combinations.

Wow, what a beautiful pony. Just to make you feel better, I probably would have hesitated and lost out as well. It's not everybody who can make a split-second decision like that about a toy for a collection. Most people have to think about it and figure out if they can afford it. Must be nice to just be able to click "Buy it now" whenever you want ;-)
