For anyone who is playing Star stable: There's an event going on where you can help Spirit in missions and by doing so befriending him and even add him to your own herd of horses. :)
As for the new serie, I haven't seen it and I'm a bit afraid to.

I would love to try that if I knew how much the subscriptions were XD
I still have not tried to watch even snippets of this show so I can't judge it.. I do wish there was a proper 2nd movie but that likely will not happen

i play the game and theres two sub, one is a monthly of 7 bucks month, and you still don't get full access to the entire game, or you do lifetime for what is now 109.oo  when I lifetimed it was only 70.oo  and they do special offers all the time so the lifetime star rider might go down again lol

also: I have Spirit in Game and he's fully max level when you get max rep with him and buy his apple

The mash up of clothing and time periods aside which irks me. And the animation which coming off the film is off putting. The show has grown on me and I have the first tie in book. Want two of the three large Breyers and it's nice seeing them us the Spirit and Rain molds. The original ones used for the film often are costly on eBay.

In addition to the toys by Breyer, there are also some made by Just Play that are really cute and done in a style very similar to the show.  I picked up one of the medium sized horses and 3 blind bags at Target the other day.  The interesting thing about these toys is that a lot of the horses must be from season 2 since I don't recognize everyone.  Also the blind boxes say "wave 1" on them, which is great since that implies there will be more!!  I think they are adorable!  I'm going back to Target for more blind boxes soon.

This whole thing is so bizarre, I suppose that in a similar vein to MLP they are cashing in to the girls' horsie phase? (Like the human characters are all girls in the poster, that's kinda cool)

I never thought Spirit was popular enough to warrant this but I guess it's nice that great film is getting a bit of attention :3

The toys look nice, I've never seen them on stores but then again I doubt they bring them here lol

Honestly, I think it was about time Dreamworks finally had a girl property. All of their movies have been male-dominated. Most of them only have one token girl that gets to be cool but is relegated to secondary character status and that is simply not enough for girls nowadays.

Angry Spirit fans should look at it from this particular angle: the collab with Breyer seems to be a super smart move because they know how to make and market horses. Everything works better as a movie franchise tie-in these days. People want pre-established characters, the Barbie model of buying blank slates has been tanking as of late.

Plus, at least the toys seem to be good quality. I've been unimpressed with the cheap hair and discolored plastic on MLPs for quite a while.

I love the expressions on their faces.  They look like toys I would have begged for when I was a kid.   Not to mention playing with them for hours.  They look perfect for the sandbox and getting pushed through the grass.

The Breyer site has info about the show and the tie in merchandise. It also lists blind bags so I think those are re colored Stable Mates. Which is awesome because not everyone has the money or space for the larger sizes. Time to find these in the wild. Isn't a new season supposed to start next month on Netflix? Once I got into it I ran out of episodes fast. :p

Yeah I grabbed Just Play Junipero at walmart. To say the quality is disappointing is an understatement. That tail could snap off very easily and the plastic feels really weird.  The gray cracks me up, because its head looks like it got shrunk down. I own sturdier dollar store fakies.  Its a nice mould and the colors are decent. Could make good custom bait, but I think I'll stick with Breyers version.
