"Fakies" -bootleg My Little Ponies- have been around since the beginning and there are MLP collectors with a soft spot for them because they really are... something. Like, obviously My Little Ponies aren't realistic at all but with some Fakies it's like, do you even know what a pony is? (Don't look at me like that. I collected My Little Ponies since I was a little girl.)

In Canada, corn comes in bags.

Rockin Orthodontist posted:At first I thought it must be some weird corn on the cob themed candy, but no, it is fresh cobs of corn. Best Before june 2017, somehow. Why? Why is canada importing this? At $2 for 2 cobs it's not even a super cheap price for corn. Why does this exist? Why would you assume it was imported? Canada produces lots of corn.

Throatwarbler posted:Why would you assume it was imported? Canada produces lots of corn. Probably enough for their population, but compared to actual "corn producing" countries, not so much. They only make about 1% of the global yield, compared to ~35% for the US and ~21% for China. Not sure what the breakdown is between feed/seed/industrial is.

I thought Canada was more about sweet, sweet wheat. Might have thought this up during a Canadian Mist-induced stupor.

They look to be knockoffs or at least extremely similar to Beast Wars Transformers. DIAMOND ELEPHANT. HOEL LEO. THUNDER TIGER. KNIGHT LEOPARD. THUNDER CRAZY OX. EXCAVATION BEAR. EVIL CLEVER DOG.

I can't believe there isn't someone stocking up on stupid gimmicky knockoff garbage like Evil Clever Dog, Amusing Duck, Titanic Bot and such. Like, you could sell those online and make a fortune, I would pay 7 dollars for an Evil Clever Dog just for the novelty of it.

Dollarama, apparently. I feel like there's enough demand that maybe a "bootleg hunting thread" might be a good idea. Going to dollar stores and posting the sort of poo poo you find and seeing if people might be interested in it. Have a list of must-buys like Evil Clever Dog, Amusing Duck, etc

Most certainly is. Here's Ashens reviewing the bloody thing with some details shots of the back of the card: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpVcIBSsNSQ

I only skipped through that video with the sound turned off, but the way the reviewer tossed the evil clever dog aside at the end of the review looked really mean-spirited. If he only paid £1 for that, that's amazing.

I remember seeing a video or two of Ashens years ago and being somewhat amused, but everything since then has been painfully unfunny for the most part, just going through the motions.

I like Ashens but his mic setup likes to capture all the sounds of cheap plastic and paper being felt, moved, and crinkled. It's like horrible toy ASMR.

So I recently got hold of some pretty amazing knockoff pokemon toys from (presumably) china. They are pretty awful/amazing. Heres the box they come in, you can see they are inside these cheap little Gatchapon capsule like pokeballs, they are not easy to open due to the awful molding. These are what the tiny figures like, there are some allright ones like this Tyranitar Or this Registeel However others like this poor Blastoise are not quite as well produced, Or this thing which im pretty sure is not a pokemon at all, (sorry about the blur) As an extra here is some random knockoff Mega charizard X next to a legitimate one, can you tell which is real?
