Fake Blondie
White Pearl variant - how to know if she's legit

Hi Everyone,

Hopefully this page will help you with identifying your White Pearl variant as legit.

Unfortunately there's been a fake version made of the Blue Pearl variant. Here are some tips to figure out if your Blondie is the real deal.

Here are some tips for checking your White Pearl variant.

• Yellow
  The yellow in the mane does not match any available rehairing colours right now. Blondie's hair is much lighter than 'Lemonade' from Dollyhair!
  You can see in the pictures below that the first pony (custom) has much brighter colours than the actual variant (2nd, 3rd and 4th picture).

• Pink
  The pink in her mane is close to Dollyhair colour 'Strawberry Mousse'. This is a very close match unfortunately...
  

• Re-root check - pop the head off
  The fastest way to check if your White Pearl is legit, is to pop her head of. Check the tail and if it has a washer, please check if it is the same size as the other G2 washer. Especially check for clamp marks, that would have been used to bend the tail washer back around the hair.

• ​Re-rooting 
  A freshly re-rooted pony has a mane and tail that look different than that of a pony's that is 20 years old. In my experience Nylon/ Kiwi hair has it's hair divided into little locks, which makes it easier for the customizer to pick out little hanks.
  New hair also has a more silky feel to it. G2 hair should feel more stiff/ rigid.
