Came over here from the LJ comm, ended up *there* because somehow I'd found myself back into "real" ponies (instead of the PonyIsland pixel ones), discovered that I was too late and they'd stopped actually making lots of ponies and your choices were down to white, orange, blue purple, pink, pink, or pink, and they weren't going to make any more different ponies, *ever*.
Then I found the fakie rack and picked up my beloved Bitterblossom...not knowing that when I went back later, her green and purple sisters would be gone, never to be seen again, even after checking four more stores in the same chain. :-(
Value Village brought more fakies, eBay brought more MLPs, and the MLP Arena preview pics of G4s brought nightmares...I love my fakies!

Hey aessedai, welcome to the fakie forums! You're totally right about Hasbro's limited designs now.. If you're not into collecting the same pony oer and over again, I can see why you find fakies fascinating; not two are alike!

Hugs and welcome, Roxy! You're not the only one by any stretch who's finding fakies far more interesting than the constant Core-7 releases - and the new versions of those ponies aren't my cup of tea either.
Hopefully some members here will help you hunt down more fakies to keep Bitterblossom company!

You couldnt be more true - unless you wish to have the largest army of one of the core 7 ponies, why bother? fakies are awesome, and they arent even in a clone pose ;D

Oh, aessedai... I can't imagine you're the only one with nightmares featuring the new pony design! Welcome to the forum (belatedly)!
