Check out the page for it here! It's actually really well done! Hopefully something like that will be a reality in the future. It looks like you can buy one if you really want to though!

Taobao has these Derpy toys up for sale on one of their random shops. While they are usually a good source for really early toys (The 3rd generation blindbags with colts and Trixie came out early a while back) I'm pretty sure this isn't real. This site tends to have lots of random clones/prototypes from people that work in the actual factories over there.

VastaKustutaJust bought this
VastaKustutaI ordered one last week hehe
VastaKustutaAnd the eyes ARE DERPED!
VastaKustutaWe can only hope! :D
VastaKustutaSo you're saying that my Lily Blossom is safe from being repainted? Yes!
VastaKustutayay derped Derpy! Might have to buy me one.
VastaKustutaLOL Chinese website
VastaKustutaI understand them all!
they all look... kind of weird O_o especially Fluttershy. and only one-sided cutie mark? but yay for Derpy!
VastaKustutaHow did those of you who ordered it, go about doing so? D= *can't figure it out*
VastaKustutaThe description The latest arrival, the gray-blue Pegasus - bubble pattern
VastaKustutaTo order you have to find an agent site to do so. (just google buy from taobao)
Looks like this is the 6-inch "fashion style" mold. Pretty cool.
VastaKustuta@Marshall
VastaKustutaIt is
omfg
VastaKustutahahahaha
VastaKustutasee a need, fill a need I guess!
VastaKustuta@anako
VastaKustutaThe real toys have always had the cutie mark on only one side.
cool :D
VastaKustutabrain
VastaKustutay u can't read this
She has the derp eyes it's so awesome!
VastaKustuta@Beatfox thanks for letting me know, I actually never bought any, so I didn't notice. ;) But you'd think that an official toy should have both cutie marks visible... meh.
VastaKustutaThe only thing I can understand is the words "iPad 2" in the description -_-
VastaKustutato be fair they did a good job, some of these are oddly better then the original toys.
VastaKustutasure there is some errors but they look worth buying if at a good price.
look at the wings!
VastaKustutai think it's one of those fashion style versions, so it's gonna be a big derpy :p
INCONCIEVABLE!
VastaKustutajust ordered one. we'll see :3
VastaKustutaand of course its fashion style
Ordered one. Here's hoping.
VastaKustutaFake or not, they are really well done. I think they'd have a more difficult time selling those with Hasbro's trademark than they would without too.
VastaKustutaPut myself down for a Derpy and a Celestia. Let's see what happens. The actual price itself is good (16 dollars total) but it's going to be the shipping that will prove costly.
VastaKustutaThey look awesome. I'm surprised that they actually included the copyright symbol on the hoof. It would be pretty fantastic if they weren't knockoffs though I have a feeling they are because after the Derpy fiasco I doubt they'd be so cool to do a toy of her. BUT I would not want to buy them if I knew they weren't made with crappy paint or something like that.
VastaKustutaConsidering some of the new toys from Hasbro themselves, a Derpy toy doesn't seem like a huge stretch anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if perhaps Hasbro released one in their next wave. Maybe.
VastaKustuta@Octavia I was thinking that too, but the thing that makes me think they aren't legit is the wings being different from the other toys.
VastaKustutaPretty neat, happy buying guys ^_^
VastaKustutaHere's for anyone having trouble navigating the site:
VastaKustutahttp://item.buyfromtaobao.com/item.htm?id=12593852531
I need to buy one of these
VastaKustutaTime to order the Luna
VastaKustutaUsually I don't like Chinese knockoffs but in this case it's very useful.
VastaKustutaBuyFromTaoBao are going to be so confused as to why so many people are ordering My Little Pony toys all of a sudden. :P
VastaKustutaHow do you select which one to buy? Or do they come as a group? I can't figure it out.
VastaKustuta@graywolf71
VastaKustutaAfter you hit Add To Cart you get to choose which one you want.
Lots of interesting stuff going on there, on that Taobao website.
VastaKustutalol, the luna's all glitter-coated.
VastaKustutaWell, I just ordered one. Came to a little over $8 in the end, not bat at all. Thanks @Dashell for that link! It's probably a knockoff, but it's Derpy and it's actually a decent price for a knockoff so I don't really care lol. She can join Leeroy Jenkins, Edward Elrick, and Blind Bag Fluttershy and Sparkly Twilight on my shelf of epic. She'll be the biggest thing on the shelf of epic too lol, fitting. I wonder how long she'll take to ship.
VastaKustutaErrgh... Western union doesn't want to work for me and Paypal and I have been fighting for years... Looks like I'm going to miss out on Derpy.
VastaKustutaIt's not clear if this is going to be a genuine Hasbro release; the derped eyes and cutie mark are too large even by Fashion Style standards. It seems very possible that Chinese workers printed different eyes and cutie mark on a Fashion Style Lily Blossom [if such a thing exists] to emulate the popular character. I'd say it's a 50/50 chance that this is actually going to be sold.
VastaKustuta@Octavia
VastaKustutaOrdinarily I'd agree but after the Derpy Fiasco I think that hope has been dashed.
@Scherzando
VastaKustutaOh, I wouldn't quite say that...
Though I wouldn't count on the name "Derpy" being used.
And in that sense, it's sorta a different character I suppose.
@Rockabore
VastaKustutaThey look the same to me. Based off the fashion style molds.
what random rototypes? Also if they are making Derpy, chances are the toy will be labeled "Ditzy Do" because of the whole thing with "Derpy". I'm also guessing they'd only risk it because of all the positive mail they received about Derpy and the Derpy merch keeps selling from We Love fine.
VastaKustutaOh geez. I need this. Like, right now.
VastaKustutaI'm not having any luck trying to get their site to work =\ Can't properly set up a deliver address.
VastaKustuta/cry Those Celestias, the Luna and Derpy all look so awesome, too =(
Hmm...Not sure if wise to buy from that site...
VastaKustutaI've been tossing Chinese money at my monitor for 5 minutes now, and I still don't have the figure yet. I wonder if that's because this stuff is made of jade and not metal.
VastaKustutaThere is no Fashion Style Lily Blossom. Only the mane six and Celestia and Luna are fashion style ponies.
VastaKustutaThis is quite odd. If Hasbro were to make a FS Derpy, wouldn't they also make a normal sized one?
Ooh! A white Celestia! Awesome. :D
VastaKustutaIt looks great wish I had one
VastaKustuta"Hasbro's asleep, make ponies!"
VastaKustutaWhy no moonies right now?!? Aaaaaaaaaa
VastaKustutaI thought seth try's to stay on hasbro's good side when it comes to running the site? won't posting knock off toy's hurt that.
VastaKustutaThe toy is "official" in the sense that It's made from the factory, the Fashion style is exactly the same as the other Fashion styles, (the wings are correct, the cutie mark is the correct size, ect), and Everything I have seen this website post, eventually came out (excluding factory errors, but this doesn't seem like a factory error).
VastaKustutaHasbro should learn how to make toys for niche markets like bronies or someone else will fill the demand.
VastaKustutaaren't there too many bubbles?
VastaKustutaPlus, thats what you get when you outsource your production to cheap labor.
VastaKustutaThis is what happens when you miss a demand for the Derpster, Hasbro. China wins. >>trots off to give Taobao all my money<<
VastaKustuta@Piper
VastaKustutaI don't really like hasbro to much.
Honestly i feel everytime transformers does something right or like now with FiM it's mostly just luck.
I feel lucky to be a Taiwanese. But I prefer stuffed toys rather than plastic ones...
VastaKustuta@FSTR
VastaKustutaYep plush is for sure the way to go plastic is really pretty lame.
Those aren't hand-painted eyes, obviously. Wich means that at any rate, somebody at the factory put in the effort to design and then print derpy-eye decals.
VastaKustutaSo either there are undercover bronies working in a chinese factory, or this is a prototype.
Whatever, I want one.
Hmm - is the official Vinyl Scratch/DJ Pon3 toy a Fashion Style or regular size?
Holy... her eyes actually ARE derped. that's a heck of a detail for a "knock-off" or are these early release of official designs? Even if she's released here like that as "Ditzy Doo" if they keep the eyes derped I'm getting one no questions. The Luna one's also pretty cool.
VastaKustutaAnother thing: considering how much of this fandom seems to be devoted to modding the vinyl figures, how come we haven't seen a blank, modifiable figure on sale yet?
VastaKustutaAlmost every single vinyl toy these days has that option since they're dirt simple for the companies to produce: just pour colorless vinyl into an existing mold, skip the decals and sell at the regular prize.
@Ryan E
VastaKustutaWhen you consider hwo the official hasbro toys look it's a lil hard to make em much more crappy.
and i don't imagine it's hard for them to look up derpy and see the crosseyedness.
Their shipping rates to the US start at $32 for 1 lb of items. Yikes.
VastaKustuta@Dashell
VastaKustutaThanks for the link, Dashell! Just ordered a white Celestia and Derpy. My daughter is going to scream when she sees this! Just hope the shipping charges don't leave me screaming, too.
I really want one, but before I order this:
VastaKustutaPeople who've already bought one, did the site seem safe? Did you have any problems using it or the agent?
@Reality Check
VastaKustutaHasbro released a blank customizable G3 pony, so hopefully they'll release a G4.
For now, the closest thing we have to a blank base are Blossomforth, Plumsweet, and Rarity with a bit of acetone.
Just ordered a Derpy... I think. $8.85 total including shipping although the website is a little confusing. They take Paypal so that seems safe enough but they ask for a mobile number to complete the order. I went ahead and put mine in... I mean, it's worth the risk for Derpy.
VastaKustutaI have a theory on the Derpy toy. I rather doubt she'd be sold like this in typical stores such as Toys R US, but what if she's this year San Diego Comic Con exclusive? That would definitely be in line with the niche market idea someone else mentioned.
VastaKustutaIf she does turn up at ComicCon, I'm finding some friend of mine that's going to get me one. No doubt they'd be selling on eBay for a small fortune.
Can someone release a guide on buying these from their shop? I can't make sense of what's going on at all.
VastaKustutaI'm hoping the order actually goes through. Haven't received a confirmation email from PayPal yet, but figured the merchant has to calculate the overseas shipping charges first.
VastaKustutaI want this so terribly badly but I can't figure out the site at all.
VastaKustuta@Kelley
VastaKustutaIf you don't mind, can you please drop us a line when it does come through ok? Sorry to be so cautious, but I've had my credit information stolen before so I get really nervous using unfamiliar websites.
Will be glad to post an update here, Woodencoyote. :)I've never had a problem with security going through PayPal (knock on wood), but I can't blame anyone for being a bit wary.
VastaKustutaLOL, it's easy: http://item.buyfromtaobao.com/item.htm?id=12593852531
VastaKustutaHow much did shipping cost for most people?
VastaKustutaThe seller has a 99.84% feedback rating, so that's encouraging.
VastaKustutaBTW, if you're not scrolling down to read the customer comments, you're really missing out. :D
Surpasses US ultra lovable!!!!! (but one side eye spent
Very attractive horse! Good likes! Ha ha
Pony very lovable, is the pony hair chaotic
Actually, how much does one fashion style doll weigh?
VastaKustuta@NinjaGalad What? Was the official Hasbro brush-able Lyra, Trixie, Vinyl Scratch/DJ Pon-3, Nightmare Moon, Zecora, and White Celestia, that are all coming out, not enough for you?
VastaKustutaI ordered a derpy and i got both the Notification of payment received and the paypal receipt... Nothing suspicious so far :)
VastaKustutaIf Paypal and I got along I'd consider doing a group order to see if that saved on postage per pony. I'll have to leave that idea to someone else. I'd be in for one Derpy should that happen.
VastaKustuta@KimmyHow much did shipping come up for you? I'm thinking about getting one when I get home from work (and clear it with my wife) but I don't want to suggest it if the shipping is going to be outrageous.
VastaKustuta@The Hero Pony
VastaKustuta4.7 ounces. Yeah, I weighed it.
@TRice01 Shipping said 1.91 :)
VastaKustuta@KimmyAnd that's what's been charged to your paypal? Sounds good then.
VastaKustutaMakes sense that it would be cheap considering it's on the light side. Hopefully there aren't any surprises.
Can anypony who's ordered one of these post if something fishy happens?
Autor on selle kommentaari eemaldanud.
VastaKustutaGot mine ordered. Here's hoping for the best.
VastaKustutaFashion style Derpy is great. Plushie Derpy would be universe cataclysm event.
VastaKustuta@Garrett In Communist China, Fashion Derpy buys a doll of YOU.
VastaKustutaI ordered two. One for my niece and another in case my nephew throws a fit wondering why I didn't get him one. I hope that it gets made and actually looks like the picture and if it doesn't get canceled, it'll get here in time for Easter. I'm going to get my niece an Easter basket and put the Derpy front and center and get her reaction on film.
VastaKustutaOH GOD WANT.
VastaKustutaAnyone know how much it costs to ship to the US? D:
You guys do realize that these probably are either pirated or salvaged, so even if the store delivers it's going to be a limited supply, right?
VastaKustuta@Reality Check
VastaKustuta>Pirated
I think a better word, given the type of product it is, is either "bootleg" or "counterfeit". However, the latter is a little strong given the overall low value of the product, and the former is used for the imitation toys from rival companies. In which case, "Knock-off" is probably the best term to describe these.
Also, I think everyone here knows that these are most likely going to be in short supply, and are probably not going to be officially released and found in places such as Walmart and Target.
I must get my mitts on the Derpy toy, just have to scrounge up the money first. I'm almost out of disposable income because I insta-bought the Friendship Express DVD (much to the dismay of my dad, who is the least tolerant in my family).
Then again, it's payday either tomorrow or this weekend, and I can always dip into my "new computer parts" fund...
Can anyone confirm if it seriously costs 30 bucks to ship to the US? It looks like it only costs that amount if the item is 1 - 2 lbs, but it doesn't say anything about the cost if it weighs less than 1 lb.
VastaKustutaLike others, I don't want any surprises.
If you're having your item shipped to the US, it's gonna cost you around 32 bucks when the time comes. The $1.91 cost that you're seeing is shipping within China, from the seller on TaoBao to the BuyFromTaoBao folks.
VastaKustutaThis page will tell you more:
http://buyfromtaobao.com/Rate.aspx
Chances are that BuyFromTaoBao bills the additional shipping to US cost to you later, to allow you to continue shopping for items if need be.
So it's gonna cost about 40 bucks by the time all the costs are totaled.
VastaKustutaDammit, I don't have that much to part with right now.
@Mattatatta Yup.
VastaKustutaThough, this listing scares me... Does anybody else get the impression that the Pony might arrive bedazzled like one of the sample pictures there?

VastaKustuta@Archimer
VastaKustuta>mfw that happens
You know...if this ISN'T an official upcoming product, it's kind of impressive that workers churning out these plastic toys know enough about the fandom or show to even think of making Derpy toys. Bronies in my People's Republic slave labor factories?
VastaKustutaI keep throwing money at the screen, but NOTHING HAPPENS!! D=
VastaKustutaWe just spent about $16 for two of these. Even if the shipping's going to be around $35, I figure that a custom commissioned 3" Derpy would be between $25-$30 each... so two 6" Derpy's for $50 isn't all that bad.
VastaKustutaIt's Derpy! She's always the exception.
Appears to be sold out, the selection picture no longer allows you to select the Derpy.
VastaKustutaFYI, it's official hasbro merc according to the seller
VastaKustutait even has the little MLP stamp at the base of their hoof
I ordered one for me and my wife (she says it will primarily be her's). I'll try to send over pics to here when it comes in.
VastaKustutaLooks like I bought it at a good time if it's all ready sold out.

VastaKustuta@Piper
VastaKustutaMaybe you could order "bubble design Ditzy" instead? ;)
BTW, I just received an update from BuyTaobao saying my order should take about a week to process.
I do think this may be some sort of limited edition. Why? Because 1. as said before either there's bronies in the factories or Hasbro has some plans for this
VastaKustuta2. It exists and will probably be the Comic Con release, last year some people complained about the Con pony being a past Gen and Hasbro isn't stupid, they know Derpy would be what everyone wants. However due to the previous issues with Derpy the only way to actually sell a figure of her without "offending parents" would be to sell it at Comic Con.
Funniest thing is that the ponies are being sold to be used as Ipad Acessories >< To be covered in the shiny jewels and glued to the back of some Ipad's cover. Apparently its the new way to decorate Iphone's and Ipad's. Poor ponies...
VastaKustuta@Kelley
VastaKustutaI also got this same email, last night! Fingers crossed!
@xkappax
VastaKustutaMe three. Here's hoping!
I think that I would be disappointed in the Equestria Daily crowd if we did not purchase all of the Derpies. ;)
VastaKustutaI broke down and ordered a couple last night. I seriously cannot resist the derp!
Has anyone else gotten past the processing phase? I'd hate to think the orders were cancelled or whatever other quagmires could happen, aha.
VastaKustutaAlso, image of the product from the seller:
VastaKustutahttp://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m0nu56pCbt1qcoci5.jpg
Interesting!
VastaKustutaIt looks like the original item page on TaoBao has been removed completely...
I'm looking for others..since I wasn't able to get even one...stupid slow taobao agent =_=;
VastaKustutaWill one of y'all post information so I can try and contact this seller? Email, company name, backup of the page, anything?
VastaKustuta:( MLP! I bought one like a few hours this was even posted, and the link was removed, and I wont be getting a Derpy! I think i'm going to cry :(
VastaKustuta@F7
VastaKustutaHere's BuyFromTaoBao's cached version of the page, complete with clunky English translation:
http://item.fromtaobao.com/item.htm?id=12593852531#
You might be able to find the seller's other items through this page.
I'm glad I ordered when I did... I just hope I still get it, and they don't cancel the order or something!
VastaKustutaMy order finally finished processing earlier this evening (well over a week's time) and I ended up paying $16.74 for shipping and handling. That's not bad whatsoever considering the fact that I live in the United States!
VastaKustutaI ordered mine on the 8th and it still says my order is processing. I really hope it goes through okay.
VastaKustuta@silverdragon54 @silverdragon54
VastaKustutaI ordered mine around then too, and mine is still processing as well :< I hope they come through! I ordered white Celestia as well as the Derpy and I'd hate to miss out on either. It's possible it's just taking its time though, mine only moved to 'Processing' a few days ago and I ordered on the 9th, so I'm remaining hopeful :3 I'm pretty patient and I've never minded waiting, but boy do I hate uncertainty XD
Anypony else got any updates? I haven't even gotten to "processing" yet, and i ordered it on the 9th at like 2AM EST.
VastaKustutaIs mine the only one that has finished processing and been shipped off? That's a bit odd considering the fact that I ordered mine on the 8th of March - which is around the same time that everyone else did.
VastaKustutaMy order finally finished processing on the 22nd of March and I paid $16.74 for the shipping and handling charges (like I said above). After that was done, it was shipped off about two days later. Once I receive her, I'll be sure to leave another update.
Mine is still in the "Processing" stage. I think I'll send a note and ask them if they know what's going on.
VastaKustutaNoooooooo!!! They told me it's sold out! T_T
VastaKustutaIt's not quite the same, but I can always customize a fashion style Rainbow Dash.
@silverdragon54
VastaKustutaI'm a bit confused. You ordered it on the same day that I ordered mine and mine has already been shipped off. Why would they wait this long to inform you that they're sold out? It just makes no sense. My mind has been boggled!
Argh! Even though I ordered on the first day I found out about this, they just emailed me to tell me that they're out! SO SAD. I told them I'd like to wait and see if the supplier gets any more. I REALLY HOPE THEY DO OR ELSE I WILL BE SO SAD.
VastaKustuta@Frenchi
VastaKustutaDid your order finish processing before they told you this or was it still in the processing stage?
[quote] Hi I think you have waited for a long time I am so sorry for this
VastaKustutaThe seller is lacking blue and white horse now could you change other color or other seller so that we can handle your order easily and quickly and efficiently
For there are so many people choose the same seller and the same color as you which leads to the seller have no enough quantity and the seller can not make sure that they will have this two kinds of horse again
The seller let me wait for longer time now and not sure when they will have them in stock!
I hope you can take it into consideration seriously!!!
[/quote]
:(
@serenakiti I left a message asking if there were any problems with my order because it's been processing for 3 weeks, and ^ that is the exact reply that I got too. I'm super jelly that you actually got one! :)
VastaKustuta@silverdragon54
VastaKustutaWith how many orders that seemed to have been cancelled - I'm actually amazed that I was able to get one. She hasn't arrived yet, but I'll be sure to take a photograph when she does.
@turelpld
VastaKustutaI got the same exact message. I replied back to them telling them I want to wait to see if they got any more in stock, but I'm not hopeful. I'd give my entire pony collection for this. :(
Is anypony having trouble getting their money refunded? When I ordered I checked the option "If this item is sold out, cancel my order" but I haven't seen any evidence that they actually have. I'm leaving another message now directly saying that I'm cancelling the order and I want my money refunded. Personally, I don't think I'll be buying from Taobao again.
VastaKustutaI received Derpy today and I must say that the photograph from the website just doesn't do her justice. She's absolutely adorable!
VastaKustuta@serenakiti
VastaKustutaCongrats! I'm super super jealous. :)
I've told them twice now to cancel the order and refund my money and they still haven't done it. I'm trying one last time before I open a PayPal dispute. I'm not mad that they don't have my Derpy, but gimme back my money dammit! >:(
I'm super-pissed considering there are apparently people who ordered well AFTER I did and have received their orders, meanwhile I got the same lame form letter that turelpd did. Why on earth were they taking a bajillion orders for something they didn't have?
VastaKustutaI never received an e-mail mine was shipped or anything.. :/ I ordered the day this was posted and was charged via paypal. How do you contact the seller?
VastaKustuta@synchra
VastaKustutaSync, which deputy did you go through? We went through BuyFromTaobao and opted to wait and see if any more came available, but none ever did so I think you just hit up the deputy for a refund which is what I'm gonna do.
They're supposed to cancel your order and give your money back if the item is out of stock but apparently some folks here were having some issues getting refunds out of them, but I dunno if that's been sorted out yet or not...
I was just alerted a new one has come in. Looks to be ComiCon overstock from the sticker on it. Don't order any until mine has processed! :D
VastaKustutahttp://item.buyfromtaobao.com/item.htm?id=15765107705
I just ordered one yesterday. It never told me if it were in stock or not, but I assume that means it is. When will it let me know if it isn't?
VastaKustuta
