I spotted this thread and thought I'd share. Someone recently said something along the lines of "At least fakies aren't in the clone pose!" Well, apparently they are now. I guess it was just a matter of time. www.mlparena.com/Forums/viewtopic/t=198705.htmlThere are some awesome fakies in that thread, though. I think I have a new fakie grail....the green unicorn in the pink box with the blue pegasus. MUST. HAVE. GREEN. UNICORN. *wraps self in ShamWow so as to not drown in own drool*

GREEN! Some of those are too awesome (although I think some people would disagree, from the comments). Hasbro's funny where it comes to fakies that use the same molds and (virtually) the same packaging... they could probably go after them, but I bet they don't feel particularly threatened by knock-offs at this point.
Hasbro really should be afraid. The fakies are getting more and more creative than My Little Pony.

Well Hasbro isn't gonna care about the clonie pose ones since they have moved on from the clonie pose mold to the new "Chibi Kid Pony" molds. I wonder how long until there will be fakies of those tho. I am actually hoping for sparkle fakies in the new molds.

I'm pretty sure those fakies are in fact, made by Hasbro themselves. At least, that's my theory. In Denmark (and I'm sure other countries too) we have a brand of biscuits. They make a well-known biscuit called Marie biscuits by Bisca (Bisca being the producer), and they cost about 5$. Then there's an off-brand biscuit called something else, made with almost the same ingrediences but not shown in commercials, or "known", so to say. They cost 2.5$. Do they taste similar? Yes, I cannot for the life of me tell the difference if I should tell them frm eachother. Why would they choose to make the cheap brand too, which they don't make as much money on? It's simple. People who can't (or won't, like me) afford the expensive brand will buy a cheaper version, so the company chooses to make the cheaper one too, instead of losing that part of their sale to another company. Could Hasbro be doing the same, or have a deal with another company? I think so That being said, I LOVE THESE FAKIES! Especially the set you're after, KK, so I'll have to look out for them for both of us And the yellow NBC.. *drools*
