Hello! Sorry, I've got a lot of fakies that I don't want anymore, and thought I'd get a price check here. I've got some standard fakies, as well as some oddities. I've got a lot of DG Baby fakies, but they've all be painted on by my sisters and me. I don't know if fakie collectors even bother with that kind of stuff, but I thought I'd see anyway. I've got tons of Walgreens fakies. I've got a Remco Donkey, a fakie flutter (or lady fakie, as I think they're called.) I've got a couple other fakies. But the real jem is the Bizarro Pinkie Pie. *Shudders* It is so neat, but kind of creeps me out, so I thought I'd try to pass it on to someone else. Hehe. Hope you all can help me with the prices. I don't know trades are allowed, as I didn't think I saw anything about it in the site rules, but I'd be open to a MLP-fakie trade if you all are.  Dollar Tree Sparkle fakie, and G1 pose fakie. Walgreens fakies:       Painted-on Dollar General fakie Babies    Customized DG fakie baby and G1 pose adult Remco Donkey    Flutter fakie and other? And finally....   Bizarro Pinkie. Anyone ever seen her before? Thanks so much for helping! I'm guessing most of these will be in the $0.50 to $1.00 area, except maybe the painted on DG baby fakies. If anyone could tell me if any of these are sought after, that'd be great! |

That Remco Donkey is frikkin sweet! ^_^ I've never seen one like him before. Most of those are in the $3 range. The MOC ones are only worth around a dollar new, but you might be able to get more for the mom and baby sets because....well, they're sets.  |

Thanks for the help! Some of the fakies are in, well, bad condition. I may make a sales post soon. Gotta make room for the ones I really want!
I love Bizarro Pinkie, but I just can't keep her. Well, if no one wants her, I'll definitely keep her.
The Donkey *is* cool. But he's kind of sticky, I'm not sure if that's a common occurrence in the Remcos or not, although I have a Remco family from my childhood and they aren't sticky at all. He's a silly guy!

Claire...first off, welcome!  I hope you enjoy your time here. Secondly, I'm really glad you posted that picture of the MOC Playful Pony/Dollar Tree Fakie. I'm trying to organize my Ponydex & I was wondering if you could help me out with something. I have a bunch of those same fakies...but I need some more info on them that hopefully you might be able to find on the cardboard backing & provide me with...So...is there a production company name up there anywhere on the backing & a year of production? Thanks so much in advance for any thing you provide me with!  |

Hi ditabee, nice to meet ya, and thanks for the welcome.
I'm glad you asked! This is the last MOC one I have, the other ones I had I gave as prizes for some games.
Ok, the front says:
Playful Pony & Accessory
FOR AGES 3 & UP
Warning: Choking Hazard--Small parts Not for children under 3 yrs.
The back is blank, but there is some info on the bottom of the back backcard:
UPC barcode: 639277249883
924988 78
Distributed by Greenbrier International Inc.,
Chesapeake, VA 23320
MADE IN CHINA
I can give you a little more info. They came out in fall/winter of 2007, I believe. I think people only found them in Dollar Tree stores. They were $1.00 new in stores. There were these colors: pink, dark pink, blue, green, purple, orange. I don't think there were any other colors. They came in 2 poses- Rainbow Dash I pose and the Bumblesweet I pose. Each came with stickers and a brush.
There was also some speculation that they were recalled due to the lead paint, but I was never able to find any information on the recall on the many toy recall searches I did, mainly because they are so... well, generic. They were also pretty hard to find in the community. Lots of people had to buy off other collectors.

It was a different scented set that looked more like Remco fakies than MLP mold fakies that were recalled. Not the sparkle fakies. I used to have the link to the recall page but I can't find it.

The pink "bizarro" I've seen in white,and he/she is kin to my pink unicorn with the same leg position, but there are no engravings on the bottom, so I don't know the manufacturer. I'd love to have her, if you want to pm me. The remco donkey is cute, and I have a reaing baby that is kind of sticky, so I know what you mean. Mostly I'm getting the inpression, fakie collectors sell ponies that are not their favs in order to make funds to collect the kind they do want, since we all sell at a low price, or trade.The Walgreens white set with the rainbow hair I would love as the one I have was a hair color disappointment.
