This is the same exact girl as the one Flitter posted, but the more the merrier, right? P: I sold her a long while back though because I needed to pay for some prioritized stuff. She's somewhere in Italy now.

Hmm...I wonder... I saw a baby pony just like this on ebay right now that says its from Italy, I am wondering if it might be yours that they are selling... I wanted to bid on it but they put 2800 euro as the cost for shipping. Yea totally crazy...

Anyway, here is some of my own taobao cuties:

I saw the baby too, I think it is the very same one, and the seller just wants to sell around ebay fees I guess ...

LMAO. I can't find the listing but chances are it's def the same.

As for the price, I didn't buy for more than 200 and I didn't sell it for more than 200 (can't remember the exact price) so I don't think they're going to get much luck if they're trying to sell it for that.  :P

*sighs I love that minty so much!

How much does she go for now approximately?(Prototype vs production) I know the TRU set is out again with  Minty so she is more available but this one is so much cuter.

I wish they would release her by herself like as a christmas stocking stuffer pony. I so want her but that TRU set is sooo big.

I believe you can find normal Minty for about 10-15 dollar on ebay.  Last I checked Prototype Minty was worth around 300 dollar.

Does anyone ever wonder if someone who works in the factory pops the wrong head on a body on purpose, puts it up on ebay just to watch us collectors go wild? lol
 (I know this isn't how it happens. Just a funny thought)

I totally think this happens, I do think most of those g4 with different heads to bodies have just been "doctored" by workers pulling spare parts from rubbish bins and creating a new pony rather than it a prototype. Prototypes to me are those that have differences from the original release like different hair colours, symbols, etc.
