Happy Fakie Friday! Today I'd like to talk about my personal definition of what makes a toy a "fakie", as I've had people bridle (hee hee) at some of my Fakie Friday picks in the past.

First, let's talk about what doesn't define a fakie.

A fakie doesn't have to be a bootleg (though they can be).

A fakie doesn't have to be made by an unknown, fly-by-night company. Remco was founded in 1949, Buddy L's toy division was founded in 1921.

A fakie doesn't have to have incomprehensible or poorly designed packaging.

A fakie doesn't have to be a poor quality or poorly thought out toy.

Okay, so what IS a fakie?

Fakies aren't about non-Hasbro horse toys being "bad" and Hasbro horse toys being "good"; it's about how impactful the My Little Pony brand is. Even in the years where the toyline was completely dormant, your average joe would look at a rainbow horse with a heart on its bum and think "My Little Pony."

^ This horse in Hercules isn't proportioned like a MLP at all but in the Year of Our Lord 1997 everyone was talking about "the scene where Pegasus was almost seduced by a My Little Pony." (Though the pink horse was actually the bad guys in disguise.)

I love fakies! But no matter how innovative and high quality are, they cannot escape being compared to the platonic ideal: a Real My Little Pony.

So here is my ultimate test of whether a toy horse is a fakie:

Throw away its packaging. Lose all its accessories. Toss it in a baggie with random small toys and hang it on a hook in Savers, Value Village, or Goodwill.

If your elderly relative who knows nothing about toys points out the baggie and says to you, the collector: "Oh, here's one with a My Little Pony in it", then it's a fakie. ;)

It's just wild to me that in the boys and the boat (2023), we have the sequential events of:

Don sitting alone at party looking uncomfortable at the prospect of dancing with a girl

Bobby noticing Don alone and uncomfortable and coming over to talk to him, then, instead of pushing him to dance with the girl,

Gets up and calls him up to the stage to play piano, boosting his confidence for the night (meanwhile Girl Who Had No One to Dance with is never seen again btw)

AND THEN, in what is arguably the CLIMAX OF THE MOVIE, when Don is struggling to row at the fast pace, Bobby DOES A CALL BACK TO THE ABOVE SCENE by having Don recall the song he played at the party as a way to keep pace, AND IT WORKS

And you're telling me what?? That I'm NOT supposed to ship them??

Even my wife (who is not at all interested in mlm) said when I was talking to her about the party scene, "yeah, except for those cuts to the girl, even I felt like the scene was just the two of them flirting with each other." Like come on!!
