I have Nightmare Moon and  Twilight vs Changeling so far. I want Princess Celestia and now that I've seen pictures of Shining Armor. I want him also.

Great photos! Cool topic!
These toys are very 'show like' I must agree!
Happy Pinkie there is a REAL way to do expressions on the pony toys. I think the brushable was going for the same look, but really missed and the 'super happy' brushables are just kind of weird to me, while these toys aren't. They made Cheese Sandwich cute too, which is surprising because I really don't like his funko.

They got pink tongues in there...but Twilight gets purple teeth?
Spitfire finally doesn't look high? Good.
Why does Chrysalis have wheels? She never had wheels in the show?
Fierce Dash! (She looks this way so often in the show, I am liking the idea of toys with varied expressions. Hopefully we get 'happy twi' too later)

For anyone who has these: do you feel the prices are reasonable for what you got?
Do you feel it needs to be on sale to be good, or are normal prices within reason?

I ask because some of the other things like normal snowglobe brushables for 10 dollars or light up princess 10 too or like 3+dollar blindbags or the costly Wonderbolts BB set and I feel I have to wait on a sale because it feels too much for the size/what you get.

I think the head molds are pretty much the same it's just the lack of paint really makes it look bad.

The wheels on the Queen are launchable weapons for shooting at Spike.

This whole set has all sorts of play accessories that are completely unlike the show which is kinda wierd when it's the only G4s Hasbro has ever made that actually look like the show characters.  (except for BBs that I can't even see without a microscope).

I got the Sisters one at a time for $20 each and while pricey, it seems worth it to have a heavy toy in my hands that feels like something worth buying and I bought them one per paycheck so it wasn't so bad.  The rest I bought all at once and now I'm broke, missed out on the 2-for-1 BuildaBear sale:  I could have had both Sisters new with all their goodies including gold shoes for $55 together plus shipping but I don't regret buying a Shadowbolt, the Queen, Spike, Twilight, and Thorax instead.  Their articulation isn't all that good and the wings fall off and they cost too much but they feel like toys and they look like G4 and they do move enough to play with imagination and I love them and I want Rainbow Dash with Spike, Pinkie and her canon, Shining Armor, and any of these in played-with condition so I can enjoy them carelessly while my pretty ones are safely in their boxes.

Short answer is yes, worth the price.  Buy at least Tia she's cheap on eBay!

Hey WingsofMasquerade, did you know there is a Masquerade in Whizzer's pose??

I have Celestia and Nightmare Moon and love them.  But I am disappointed that my Nightmare Moon can't stand on her own - I have to put something under her one hoof or she will fall right over.  Does anyone else have this problem?

I really want a Shining Armour next, he looks awesome.

I feel like Princess Celestia and Nightmare Moon are well worth the $20. Twilight vs Changeling I got for around $10 since I had a R rewards coupon. I wish Hasbro had painted Twilight's teeth.

I'll go ahead and take my NMM off her card maybe tonight and report whether she stands up on her own...she seems to be standing on her own hair, and Tia too, so I assumed they stand up well.  She better or I'll just have her lose all the time.

I had some 2" plastic Indians when I was small and one had a chief that stands up nice and the other didn't stand up and he'd always get killed off early cuz he was hard to deal with, then my sister had him crawl to sneak around and that's when I realized he wasn't supposed to stand up but to crawl and he was cool from then on.  Much smarter than the one that stood up proudly all the time actually, haha.  Dang I completely forgot about those guys until this moment....regardless, NMM is supposed to stand up so I'll check her out right away.

Mrbrightsky, they must have sent all our Shining Armors to Texas cuz I don't see any here in my little corner of California.  I forgot there was any big Spike until I saw him on the GoH line card included with the Shadowbolt...I bet he's real expensive!

A few of him have shown up around here. Runs about $40-45 iirc.

Mine stands up great.  A little disappointed only the wings are articulated though...I'd add pics but she looks just like the one pictured earlier here and she stands on her rear hooves and a points on the bottom of her tail where it is directly under her front hooves.

Do you have a picture of yours?  Maybe the point on the tail is wrong and can be corrected.

Ponyfan,
Too bad about Twilight's unpainted teeth, that should be easy to remedy though with a dab of white paint...

And why has no-one posted pics of theirs yet?  :P I have never seen these in the flesh so curious to see how they look in hand.

Well, if you insist.  :P

Awesome, thank you! I feel I will be getting these if/when I see them.

Here's a pic of giant Spike. Maybe I will paint Twilight's teeth if I get another set of Twilight vs Changeling.

I really want these now, I hope I can find them at some point.

They have all of them on Amazon (except for the Fan Series Chrysalis), and they're all heavily discounted.
