Hi,

I finally found Wave 2 of the All About ponies and was able to get  Soarin. Here are some pics.

Oh look, one of the few ponies the short mane doesn't look stupid on

Nice! I'm still on the lookout for them myself!

I like him!

Congratulations.

I wish we got those here!! Are they US exclusive, or did Europe get them?

I live in the US, but they're still slowly trickling into stores here. I've been seeing Wave 1 for a few months now, but Wave 2 I have not seen yet.

Soarin' is a cutie!  A bit of trivia, he was named after a kid of one of the animators (kid's name is Soren).

I found him in the UK yesterday! He's gorgeous, I had no idea his wings were poseable

Probably because his show model has the spiky hair. I wish that they let the boy ponies have hair like the girls, they'd be more fun.
Congrats, Ponyfan!

He looks pretty darn good. Of all places I found him in a bin of ponies at a local gaming store.

Yes, that's exactly the reason why.
And I agree - Hasbro did it in G1, they can do it now.

That's one of my cousins names.

Well, there's always a rehairing option.

[ZeldaTheSwordsman]

There is, but it's annoying to have to do that to a pony fresh out of the packaging. I'm going to be complaining about this design choice through Hasbro's customer feedback form

Thank you everyone. I agree that the shorter hair looks better on Soarin than Big Mac. I haven't quite figured out why the boys come with a comb when their hair is too short to use the comb. I think the store I found him at had just put Wave 2 out as I had checked that store several times before and only found Wave 1. There were only two Soarins in all of the Wave 2

I didn't know that. I thought he was named Soarin because of the association with flight. That's very interesting.
