UK Magazine Twilight on the way
« on: December 26, 2013, 07:22:33 AM »
Remember this mysterious Pinkie Pie toy? I just got a pair of 2.25" figures, Twilight and Pinkie, assuming they were from the Monopoly set, but no, the Pinkie is definitely the one from the magazine and the Twilight is definitely in the same style, so it looks like there's a Twilight on the way. (Or... already released? I don't live in the UK so I can't comment, but if so, nice going!)

And to be clear, no, they are different from the monopoly ponies:

Magazine Twilight has a more elaborately layered hairstyle in the top front, and on her display side, the part of her mane going down to her neck is split into more pieces and doesn't have the highlights curving forwards. The highlights on her tail are more purple-oriented. Likewise, magazine Pinkie's mane curves in more toward her right eye, and the two tail versions curl differently. Both the magazine figs look to have somewhat wider eyes than the Monopoly ones do, too, or at least eyes that are set farther forward.

My boyfriend sent me a snap chat of the latest issue with her on it, spotted at an Asda in Leeds while he's home for Christmas. So they are out there :frolic:

...I'm actually tempted to get this. Does anyone know how much the magazine is? Really hoping it's more £2-£3 than the £5+ magazines seem to be these days...
Idly searching for: loose, good condition G4 Blossomforth, Starbeam Twinkle, Plumsweet. TTM Celestia doll's wings Within UK or EU only, please.
Will also take in Pretty Pony Club (UK magazine) fakies.

Its been a while since I bothered to check the price on them and I only have a couple but I believe they run to a rather expensive £3.49 per issue.

Thats cute :) I may pick up the current issue if it features the toy however.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

£3.49's a bit steep....are the toys closer in size to a brushable or a blind bag figure? Would be worth it if she's more 3" size than blind bag sized  :P

Great news, it would be nice if they release all the Mane Six  :biggrin:

The figure is roughly 2 inches tall, I would measure mine but she lives on my desk at work  :lol:

OH just bought the magazine for me at lunch time (I decided only to get the ones with figures!) and it says £3.99 on it, and that's the price it went through for at Tesco. There is a free story book in this one as well as a pony though.

TS is really cute, she looks happy with my Pinkie Pie! :)

I got it :P The book is Twilight Sparkle and the Crystal Heart Spell although its just an extract(64 pages), it says at the end the full book is avaliable at Asda (but there's limited availability). It also says Pinkie Pie and the Rocking Pony Party is coming soon, and there will be a 3rd MLP DVD released on February 17th called A Pony Party.
The story in this issue is based off One Bad Apple :)
 Apologies about the price, it is £3.99,not £3.49!

Got TS but sadly missed Pinkie. Any way to buy it now? Can't find it on ebay, maybe taobao?
