hi! My name is Maria I've only been collecting MLP's and fakies for maybe a month or two so I don't have whole lot but I'm working on it I wasn't really interested in fakies until I saw a giant pink CPK fakie in an ebay lot and just fell in love. I didn't win the lot but a couple days later I saw that very same fakie at a flea market! (fate I tell you!) needless to say I bought her and love her to little fakie bits ^^ I only have a few others in my collection (7 total) but my favorites are CPK fakies, DG baby fakies, Totsy, and these ones that I don't know their names but they have these odd plastic collars around their necks I kinda have to put fakie (and pony in general) collecting on hold for right now because I am away from home but I still like to browse the forums and such as far as MLP goes I collect all three generations but G2 is my favorite. I also collect Littlest Pet Shop, Toki Doki, Asian Ball Jointed Dolls, and Nyan Nyan Nyanko plushies. I'm Regina Mortis on pretty much every forum I'm on (including MLP Arena) and I usually use the same Dinosaur Comics T-Rex avatar so anyways thanks for having me and sorry for being so long-winded Regina

Hello and welcome! Don't worry, there's no such thing as being long-winded around here, Maria, we love getting to know everyone!
Wow, it's great to see some love for the CPK fakies, that's awesome! I believe the ones with collars you are referring two are also a kind of CPK fakie, and I don't think we have any collectors of those around here, so it's awesome to see them getting some love!
It's great to have you here and thank you for coming!

Hi and welcome! If you have any Dollar Generals around where you live, I've seen some of the ones with the plastic collars there. I picked some up, even.
You avatar keeps making me want to yell "FEELINGS ARE BORING; KISSING IS AWESOME".

Ooh, another BJD owner. Which one(s) do you have? I'm a Dollzone fan *dodges thrown Barbies* and have a DZ Wing and DZ Jing. I also have a Soom Gena. I'm considering getting a few more, but it takes ages to save up that much money. Nice to see another Totsy fan too. ^_^ Oh, and the fakies with collars are probably Chap Mei ponies. Chap Meis (and fakies thereof) are generally unicorns, with a molded forelock and those wierd plastic collars.

thanks for the warm welcome you guys yes the ones with the collars are Chap Mei ponies! like the ones at the top here: www.mlplovers.com/fakiea2.htmZainin: XD I really want the t-shirt that says that lol t-rex is so great Knotty Kitty: I love DZ's though I only have the fox. and Soom Gena is gorgeous. I have 7 BJD's (because I started collecting in high school when I had a job and no responsibilities to spend the money on ) I have a Souldoll Celestyn, Souldoll Harang, Oriendoll Ji vamp, Elfdoll Alice Cherry Blossom piggy, Domuya Potpourri, DZ fox, and a Pipos Cheshire. I also have a Soom Amber on the way but I had to ask them to hold off on shipping her because I'm out of the country

I have an Angell-Studio Abel in Pink, a resin colour they don't actually sell anymore. XD;; I have two of their heads, too- a Kana, and the limited Christmas head- floating around waiting for me to save for bodies.
I wanted a Dollzone Wing for a while for one of my characters (I'm a writer and I make dolls of my characters) but I found another doll that fit him better that I'm going to save for after getting bodies for my two floating heads. I'm still trying to figure out if Wing fits one of my characters because I want an excuse to buy him. XD

Regina Mortis: Ooh, nice collection! (It's been about a year since I've been active in the BJD community, so I'm proud of myself for still being able to put headsculpts to those names. ) I love the DZ fox, and Cheshire is absolutely awesome. I've been considering picking one up on the secondhand market. He's pricey, but also very, very cool. Celestyn is also gorgeous. She's one of the first dolls that ever made me say "Wow..." Zainin: Wing is awesome! Well, he can be awesome, lol. I've seen some gorgeous Wings and some pretty terrifying ones. (One eyesore comes to mind, but I won't mention names out of courtesy. But if you hang out on DoA, you've probably seen him.) I really love the 70cm DZ body. I find Hounds to be too lanky for my tastes, so I'm fond of DZ's toned sculpt. And I love his giant hands and feet. XP It's been impossible to find decent shoes for him, but I think the sculpt and poseability more than makes up for it. (Plus, mine's a hippie elf, so he's always shirtless and barefoot anyway, haha.)

While I'm not a huge fan of G2s (there are a few that I do want to get one day) but it's always nice to see someone stand strong & proud of liking G2s the most out of the MLP generations since it always gets such harsh criticism in comparison to G1 & G3 lines.

What is it about G2 lines? The G2 Strawberry Shortcake toys get a lot of harsh criticism too. I personally love the G2 of Strawberry Shortcake but not the G3.
