Show me... factory errors!

[Taffeta]

It's a different kind of factory error, but my Fizzy has a serious identity crisis.

Even though the card is English, I'm pretty sure mine originally came from Germany, which just makes it even more bizarre. There are a tribe of Fizzy ponies who want to sing Shoobedoop. Although it's not just SunFizzy....

There's also Starlaxy. (image property of Rosie Apple).

@Tak - that Parasol's parasol dots are miles away from the rest of the umbrella! I guess they're the kind of parasols that need magic to operate...

These are so awesome! Loving all these lovely errors <3

do my girls count? hehe no one knows if it's just weird fading or *what*, but regular Blue Belles tan rather than fade, that's for sure!(I need to take new pics of them, these are at *least* 2 years old!)

No hair plugs on her head and I think the wrong shade of blue in her tail.

My Melody has some tinsel in her tail

I really wonder how an accident like this could even happen

Do you notice how off center her tail is?

I really need one of those flutters, they're so funky.

@ Lunar_scythe - for a moment I seriously thought that was a Butterscotch on the wrong card. Then I saw the stars...

The weird thing with those Bluebelles, and why I don't think it's fading but an error in the factory, is that they all seem to originate in North America. I really think there mustve been one batch where the dye didn't seal fast properly...since otherwise you'd expect it to be all Bluebelles worldwide.

Here's my odd little Lemon Hearts (from the very first wave of BB's I believe?). I keep her with some of my other toys rather than my ponies. I got another Lemon Hearts that is normal but I'm keeping this one as well.

What's funnier than her is the fact that I didn't even realize the issue for a few months. I must have just unpackaged her and stuck her on the shelf because one day I went back over them and realized something was wrong

Honestly I feel the same way; given the MOC, my belief was the wave between year 1(flat foot) and year 2, there was a small run of concave foot ponies.  That may be the wave that the white ones are from, since there aren't a lot of them?

And yeah that poor MOC has one of the most browned bubbles I've ever seen!

I have a couple of fun paint mishaps that I'll post later... Some of these are pretty awesome!

Man! Those funky flutters! They are in the same line as the Princess variants. I do wonder what they were thinking when they were putting them together out of the boxes of "rubble" that was left at the of the line.

I bet your flutter was sold in a box with three brushes MIB mane-less Bobbie had three brushes and a hat. Like the poor thing needed three brushes with no mane

Love pkw xxx

[Taffeta]

I still think Sel's MIB Bobbie shows a great sense for British irony...either that or Bobbie is putting out the vibe that she has the right to have whatever hair accessories she likes, even if she has no hair.

I really wish those oddballs had shown up in my area. Sigh, guess they didn't get to the Welsh Borders...

Lunar_scythe - that sounds totally probable. I'm not totally sure which batch of CF Bluebelles came here as the only place I tracked down advertising them was Argos but I'm assuming they were probably mail order ones or a special batch for here after the FF line?

 I had no idea there were so many of the whited ones, tho, till I saw all your pictures
