High Quality G1 Custom Project
A fan-made project to make vintage style ponies was set in the works by the G1 pony community. Titled - Wishes Do Come True - High Quality Generation 1 Custom (HQG1C) Project. The meaning behind Wishes Do Come True, was for the G1 collectors dream to become reality, and revive the good memories of the past. HQG1C is a custom created fan made project, therefore not official. The ponies are made of high quality, blow molded plastic, with fully rooted mane and plugged tails.
Characters within the project were designed and inspired by collectors themselves.
The first character introduced was Genie. Genie represents the project, leading to the title of Wishes Do Come True.
Genie is the first custom in the Wishes DO Come True series, an unlicensed high quality custom reproduction of a G1 style pony. Her body color and hair color are completely unique to this pony alone. She is similar to the G1 Gusty Pose, but her hoof stamp says "Custom 2016, Hong Kong." Since This pony was put together partially in factory and partially by a group of volunteer collectors, her mane was mechanically rooted but her tail hole was drilled and a tail was inserted by hand. Due to this, her tail is not held in with the same method as licensed ponies; there is no tail washer but instead a cable tie/zip tie.
From original talks, drawings, pose creation and finally factory samples, the process to create Genie took over two years.

Back Card Stories
Genie was designed to have our childhood pony wishes come true. The stars represent wishing in hope for a G1 style to return, the hearts represent the collector community's mutual love for ponies, and the horseshoes represent the ponies themselves. The lamp ties it all in together, representing a Genie granting our 25 years long wish for G1 style ponies to come back! (writing credit to Clipper and ABC).
