Ami Ami Takara Pony Brag #1 GRAIL

[Ember1]

I dont usually brag to much lately but I thought finally getting my #1 grail deserved a post. Shes been my grail for 7 years.

Presenting the Elusive Ami Ami: the braided takara pony from the ochame fashion pony set. She was found 7 years ago in a fleemarket in finland. To this day she is the only Ami Ami ever found.


It has occurred to me that she might be a factory error. It does seem as if she got kuru kuru's green color hair for whatever reason. Maybe there was an error or a color blind worker on the assembly line? Or she was just made in teal instead of blue like the catalogue pictures show.

A cute name for her might be "Kurami" the hybrid takara pony.

Here she is with all of her original accessories.

*Swoon* She's gorgeous! Congratulations 
Her hair turned so green over time 

It's amazing you were able to find her!

[Ember1]

Actually i think this is her original color. Her hair is the same color inside her head. I made sure I checked.

Thank you for posting the pictures! I've been anxious to see more pictures of this one for a long time! She is gorgeous!

As for the hair color, it'll be difficult to determine until another one is found what shade her hair originally was like (can't always trust the catalog photos). It seems quite common for the Takara MLPs' hair to change colors a bit over the years (might have something to do with Japan's climate? I've seen this happen on a lot of dolls bought from Japan). Some Pinkys seem to have a more warm pinkish purple hair color, while others are a cold lavender. Similarly, some Milkys have an orangeish hair color (while it's supposed to be pink)

In any case, she is an extremely rare pony! Even among Takara MLPs, which are extremely rare themselves!

Yeah, she looks more turqoise to me than green - maybe the catalog pictures were a prototype, and the actual production was less aggressively blue? Either way, I'm just blown away by her!

I dont think her hair is faded spike. When I popped off her head the rooting is the same color. So maybe she was meant to be teal? I guess we wont know until another shows up.

Congratulations
