ManaMinori 4,145 December 9, 2016 Share December 9, 2016 (edited) While browsing eBay, I often spot a Sunset Shimmer plush that looks far too good, like it's made by fans and not half -assed, like a lot of licensed companies do (coughspaghettistringmanes). Is this plush made by fans or companies? I only know of the spaghetti mane SS from Funrise, unless a new one was made...

ManaMinori 4,145 December 9, 2016 Author Share December 9, 2016 I actually own a few MLP plushies from this company. They are good quality and look just like the photos. They not only make canon characters, but also more abstract ones. I used to own a plushie made from them of the character Cynder from the Spyro installments.my bad. I meant to say Sunrise (that's the only company I know that has made an official Shimmy plush) I know 4DE has some pretty show accurate plushies (of which I only have Spike). And that SS looks like it's from 4DE, but I haven't heard any word on o e being made by them, on EQD Under the Jellicle Moon- a site with cuteness, cat boys, and comic strips / Star Dreams Fanclub Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what the licensing deal is, but we have a store in our mall that sells Japanese imports and these are on their shelves. You see EqD mention them every now and again. If you see that green plushie size logo on an eBay listing ... that is what this is. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Letter 1,832 December 9, 2016 Share December 9, 2016 I don't know what those are but I assumed they were cheaply made knock-offs. 2 Silver Letter!!! Silver Letter's MLP collection Have: 946 https://data.mlpmerch.com/checklist/180/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whirlwind 1,059 December 9, 2016 Share December 9, 2016 This is a "knock-off" Plush. They are manufactured from a Japanese company call "onlyfactory" or "olyfactory"......Whatever. They are not sold in the United States but are found on E-Bay. However if your lucky and have an Anime store near you, you can possibly find some of these plushies in the store. 1 "There is no greater love than to lay down one's life for one's friends" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminance 2,186 December 9, 2016 Share December 9, 2016 Those plushies look pretty canon. I wouldn't mind getting some as I need more secondary/background characters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormBlaze 992 December 9, 2016 Share December 9, 2016 these plushies are everywhere and I have like half the catalog XD theyre really good for non custom made plushies. Not quite official though.

Knightgem 158 December 10, 2016 Share December 10, 2016 Proud owner of Luna (season 1 +) Rarity, Sweetiebelle, Maud Pie, Lyra and Bon bon. Mind you Bon bon looks a bit squished, but other than that. They come at a good price and super cuddely, even though I think only Sweetiebelle and Lyra are the only ones that actually appreciate it. 2 isn't flashing your riches, it's sharing it with others that don't know how or can't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxy Socks 2,600 December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 (edited) As far as I am aware the 12 inch ones are not officially licensed and seems to come from 中国(Middle Land, aka China) so shipping takes about a month to the US for me. I have Shiny from it and he is amazing except for a few minor flaws, mainly how his cutie mark is as there is a little bit of plastic material comimg off, but rather well made Edit: Actually maybe it was from 日本（Sun's Source, aka Japan since others are mentioning it, but it was shipped from China.

Widdershins 9,960 December 18, 2016 Share December 18, 2016 Nope, that's clearly not from whatever company Hasbro officially licensees to do their toys. Whomever they may be, I can tell from the style they usually do. For one, offical Hasbro toys don't have actual curves and shape put into the toy like that. The actual toys don't have that little back dip to the leg, you know, where instead of going straight down the leg shifts backwards making that little fetlock thing you see alot in pony OCs? (come to think of it, don't think even real horses have that either. Why do ponies?) In offical toys their legs are pretty much just stuffed cylinders & their heads are lumpy balls. Their hair is rarely that elaborate, but the toy line does seem to be getting better with age, so maybe sometime. if they're knock offs, then I prolly shouldn't get it, in that case Hah! Whyever would that stop you? Sure, there's supporting the actual company, but if they outright refuse to make the character you want and another company happens to make a decent mock-up of it....where's the harm, eh? I watch alot of Phelous's Bootleg Zones on YouTube, and he spends a TON of money on really, just absolute, crummy knockoffs that can barely support their own weight. He still plays with them, though likely, mostly so he can make bootleg videos on the internet about them, but still! Just because something isn't official, doesn't mean its worse. Even if it is, a crummy toy can still be fun! 1 Beatings & Salivations Everybeing! Creativity is something blatantly important to me as is no doubt evidenced by the 28 OCs I have posted here of the some forty plus I have, they're linked altogether at the bottom of my About Me page in my Profile & I would deeply cherish anything you wish to say about them! Among which of those I am proudest most of is my Draconequusona, His/My Ask Thread and my Hydra, Gallimaufry or "Mauf" and their own Ask Thread! Either way, sufficed to say, I am quite confident I have more OCs than you! Crazier to! Do You have a tatzelpony?! No, I rather think you don't! Hew-Hew-hew!

Is this plush made by fans or companies? I only know of the spaghetti mane SS from Funrise, unless a new one was made... $_1.JPG I believe that this is real. My reason is because of the price. If it's expensive ($25+) and has that 12 in. thing at the top it's real. I don't believe (not certain so don't take my word on this one) people aren't able to sell products like this with a price range that is as high as the company. But I might be wrong on that.

Guest December 21, 2016 Share December 21, 2016 if they're knock offs, then I prolly shouldn't get it, in that case That would be a good choice if you're generally not a fan of knock offs, but I can say that my Derpy from that company is great. I've also heard many others praising the plushies and being overall pleased with their purchases; so if you'd like to get a pony plush for a cheap price, go for Onlyfactory.
