Black Grand Unicorns

[Nicole]

Sorry if this has been asked already but…. Since the black grand unicorns that were sold on ebay were painted using the older version of their mold (with the thicker tail) is it possible that in the future the newer mold of the grand unicorn could be painted in the old black color? Maybe as a limited production or something? My family of black unicorns just doesn’t seem complete without the big guy 😀

I’d love if this were to happen since I missed the 12 when they were listed (wasn’t really on ebay at that time), but I don’t think it would happen as *I think* it would be too hard to tell them apart from the others.

Here’s the picture from the ebay gallery.

I can’t really tell the difference between the tails, but then I don’t really know what I’m looking for. It looks the same as the tail on the white grand in the store.

Well what i’ve heard was that the first castings of the grand unicorns had the thicker tails and i think a thinner waste or something like that but im not 100% sure about what was revised. Here’s what Astral’s castle said: “This was the original casting of the Grand Unicorn that was replaced with the more familiar one. Windstone used this photograph in their catalogs, even though the available model differed slightly. It is uncertain how many of the original version were actually sold, but it is probably very few. Later, these castings were painted up for the limited production Grand Unicorn (Black).” The pictures in the store and that are shown in other stores are the test version.

hmm.. if that were the case then a technicality would kind of let Melody do more black grand unicorns.. and I would be so excited..

or Melody could always do a black grand unicorn in a different way, jewels/eye color/etc.. so we could still get one..
hehe

That is the fat tailed version. Look at this white grand, his tail is noticeable smaller.

I would most certainly like to have a grand unicorn, and the white just doesn’t do it for me… so it would be nice to see some new types of blacks.

Neither did I. I’d love it if it was enough of a loophole for more black grand unicorns to be produced, but I’m not going to get my hopes up.

Here is a comparison pic. Might help to see the difference.
