More new crazy tinsel main 6 on taobao! What's hasbro up to?

[brightberry]

Pinkie looks great!

[Wysteria]

I kinda do hope they release them. I didn't know so many have been spotted but I somehow seem to miss everything on ebay. I wanted AJ but she sold out way too fast. I really like pinkie and rarity with the colored tinsel, it really brightens them up.

Or the workers did. Who knows how much they can get away with there.

This, I really think most of what is sold is probably just this.

They cant get away with much at all. Trust me I have toured Chinese manufacturing factories, even the best ones don't allow for a lot of creativity. :/ There is not the time in the working day in order to do anything due to the volume of work which has to be carried out and the strict time limits placed on processes. In addition its unlikely that one factory worker follows a pony from beginning to end of its creation. If these are not initial versions of ponies which will be released then they are simply rejects or tests which factory managers sell to re sellers as they are not wanted.

That makes me feel better about their origins. It's what I thought was most likely to be the case but hearing from someone with experience in these areas is great.

They remind me of Vegas party girls, especially Rarity.

Yes she is a fountain of knowledge, I love it

[girlyponce]

I love these. If they are released they may be the first Mane 6 set I actually get!

[Sapphire-Light]

So the core 7  issue continues strong in G4 at least for me this means more money to buy MH dolls

I wonder how many days the G4 will continue if the keep this same ponies going over and over, G3  and G3.5 died fast after the core.

[Clipper]

Thee remind me of the second set of g1 princesses.. Looks like the front part of the mane will be used for te tinsel in the crown clips again

I have the glitter sunset shimmer! Well she is on her way here (:

I know we've seen Rarity and I think a member on here has a sunset shimmer:

But I was browsing taobao and found AJ, Rainbow Dash, and Fluttershy too. Totally forgot to save RD. They only had about 5 Aj's and 2 RD and Fluttershy's. I was able to snag a Fluttershy so we'll see if they have any dates on them.  Has anyone seen a Pinkie pie yet? I really wonder what hasbro is up to with this set. I don't think they look too bad with it tamed in a pony tail but if they actually produce these...just why?! I also just noticed fluttershy doesn't have the cystal empire eyes.

I have a feeling they are testing colors- because the variations keep changing

Do you have a picture of your glitter sunset shimmer?

[brightberry]

Aww...   I kind of liked the idea of factory workers coming up with their own creations to sell.

Lol...I buy in a lot of bespoke advertising, digital and vinyl items so it helps sometimes to know where you are buying from. 

One of the biggest factories I was at was essentially a mini town. Most of the workers live 12+ hours away [by train!] so they actually live and work at the factory for 8-9 months at a time. They usually are from rural parts of China and often had children who they sent money back to. Their life for the time they are there is basically in the factory environment. This particular factory here had an excellent standard but honestly most went to work and then go back to their apartments [bedsits mainly] with any socialising done among one another. And it is very very regimented system within the factory. Any making up of your own test pony and then taking it away to list it online would be pretty much impossible.

But I agree I also like the idea of them being little creations during someones lunch break It would be so cool!
