Wow very nice work and design, the Rarity inspired one remind me of a modern and younger version of Erick Raymond

 :whoa:
Great quality on the dolls, too bad the price is too high for me

Ooh, those are really groovy! I especially love the hair on the Pinkie Pie one. :D

This isn't the kind of thing I ussually buy, but I really like these, especially the Pinkie Pie and Rarity ones. Applejack is up there too.

I'm wondering what market these will appeal to. Do most bronies want them? Do most pony collectors, or the people who ussually buy these dolls want them? I remember seeing comments on a doll forum when they were announced that suggested that MLP was too childish a tie in for Integrity.

I want them as a vintage pony fan who has had some involvement with bronies. What about you guys?

I really like them, but they are too rich for my blood.  I'm really not sure what market they are trying to appeal to here honestly. :huh:

Agreed on both! I wonder if they really limit how many they make? I'd be curious to know...is it like 10 of each doll? The Jem dolls they make seem to sell out.

Honestly, as a huge doll collector, I find these incredibly embarrassing to the point that I could never own one. Even if somehow I got one as a gift I'd just have to sell it. I couldn't stand having one of those in my home.

Sexy Applejack and Sexy Fluttershy are really just the worst to me. I can't even look at them. Pinkie Pie is pretty bad but at least he's so ridiculous looking its a little funny. Rainbow Dash would be the easiest to make acceptable but I don't really like his hairstyle. Rarity is just ugh. Ugh ugh ugh. Twilight Sparkle is actually okay and I'd quite like her by herself, if her outfit was changed and that tattoo scrubbed off. I like her faceup and hair. But if I'm buying an Integrity doll I'd rather have one with a good stock outfit that I like.

I also find it really cringey that they don't even have names. They just have pony screen names. That's just a whole other level of embarrassing.


I'm also equally confused about the target market. These are very, very obviously aimed at bronies but bronies aren't doll collectors. Integrity fans don't want them. Collectors of all MLP gens might not care enough about G4's mane six to spend so much money on something they don't even collect. They're not for children. There's no nostalgia factor that might pull in people who liked MLP as kids. Their only pull is the pop culture angle.

I wish they'd done a G1 inspired set. That would've had a wider appeal and probably would've been a lot prettier.

Rarity looks okay I guess. I don't see the appeal of these overall.

They don't look horrible but i don't see the utility.It's like they said we don't have any idea how to make mlp dolls, so why not making dolls of mlp fans?I don't see how anyone will be interessed in these.

It says in the link 500 of each doll at $130 per doll.

Umm... Ok? These are just strange to me. The only one that I could maybe think[/] of owning would be the FS one but definitely not for $130. These just seem a little ridiculous to me. Definitely nothing I will be losing sleep over.

AppleJack's man!? All joking aside, I like the "Twilight" one, but not enough to really want to get her.

Ah, ok! Thanks!

I wonder if Applejack is as buff as Pinkie Pie? I can't tell because his upper arms are covered. I would think he would be the most muscular of the group!  :P
