What weird ponies are these?
« on: May 01, 2014, 07:20:23 PM »
I'm sometimes scrolling taobao just for fun and I've happened to come across an odd set of the mane 6 ponies as, I think 3.5s? Anyway, they look really odd and I have no clue what they might be other than them being hasbros own as the stamp implies on their feet. Any ideas?
:what:

Maybe they're the fair ponies  :lmao:

In all seriousness... that isn't the G3.5 logo, its the G4 one... that implies they are a real product, surely? What are Hasbro planning?

They're rather assumed to be fakies, given they're all pegasi, they all have blue eyes... oh yeah, and they're G3.5. They're actually quite large--note the fashion style fakies in the first pic for size comparison--but very few people seem to have bought any, partially because they're also pretty expensive. But they've been wandering into eBay in the last week or two, so maybe that'll start to change.

The thing I find funny about the G3.5 fakies is their tongues... their tongues are painted pink while the real Hasbro G3.5 Styling PinkiePie and StarSong have unpainted tongues... there was slightly more effort put into making the fakies than the legit ponies from years ago? :lol:

It's kinda weird but it totally bugs me  :P

I was contemplating buying them but I really don't know. I've been looking for the knock off plushies that have been floating around when I saw these and they just looked so weird. Maybe they are fair protos then? :/

I've seen those-  I think they are made by the factories that make other Hasbro ponies.  But they are not legitimate Hasbro products.

Oh my gods, those are hilarious.

Is it wrong that I kind of want them to be released just because the anti-3.5 freakout would be SO FUNNY?
