Seeking Advice (And Train Twilight)
« on: January 18, 2017, 12:47:44 PM »
Hello, I need a bit of advice. There's one specific Pony I've been looking for and I'm not sure about the best way to get her; the Pony in question is Twilight Sparkle, what makes this release so special is that it's the only one to actually be the right shade of purple (She's pastel purple like in the show rather than that plum purple the toys usually are), the big issue is that she's $25-30 and I don't especially want the train, which is what's making her so expensive. I've tried looking on ebay for just the loose pony and nobody's had her, not even the people that sell factory rejects.

I wanted to try my luck here, I haven't found one listed, but I'm not sure what the best option to go with is; Ideally I'd like to trade the Twilight Sparkle I was going to put in my set or maybe pick up a Coloratura for the other person since the exchange rate isn't very good, but I'm a bit worried about asking there since it seems to be a bit more difficult to get what you're looking for. I also thought of perhaps asking if anyone had been looking for just the train and would like to pool their money to buy it, but I'm not sure what the odds of that are since I've seen a lot of other playsets where everyone wants the specific pony it comes with and nobody wants playset itself.

If anyone could offer any advice, that would be great

I didn't know the one from the train set was a different color! Can someone show me a comparison?

I noticed this too! If it helps, the articulated Twilight is the same, proper color as the train brushable twilight if you don't want to buy the whole set  ;)

Once I get the set I'll take a side by side comparison for you guys! Providing someone doesn't do it before I do :)
