I love these water globes so much. I have them ALL- I needed them in my life when I found they existed about a year ago.

Dare I say, though; I was disappointed that the new G4 Flip and Flow Seaponies were a missed opportunity. I wish they had put the same cutiemark glitter in them that the Water Cuties did. I also doubt this line will extend outside of the Mane 6.

Excuse me while my inner 7-year-old whines in the corner...


Woulda been nice if they were full on translucent plastic. I do intend to get 2 for customs.

...that, too, yes. Yes. I get that they want to cut corners and whatnot, but you can't even turn their heads. In fact, I don't know if you can do customs with them easily without shattering them because of the head being fused to the body since that is where the water flows into to disappear.

At least the Water Cuties were made with translucent plastic throughout and you could remove their heads so you could attempt repairs without it showing on the outside.

The distribution on these was very strange. Where I am in Canada we never saw Applejack or Flower Wishes, but the 3 winged ones were here for years. I saw them a month ago at Superstore.

I have Diamond Mint, Applejack and Luna Water Cuties. I never found Twilight or Cadance. I was dissapointed that the new Glitter Celebration ponies look like Water Cuties but they’re not.

I can solve that problem for you. We have Applejack and Flower Wishes here in boxes marked Hasbro Canada.
Yep. Go figure.

I got Blossomforth from a big hypermarket in Lisbon last summer. She was the only G4 pony I saw in the whole of Lisbon. I am sure that is an exaggeration but I didn't see any others. But I didn't have any version of Blossomforth, so I took her home with me xD.

But yeah, StrawberryScoops. The UK has your share of Flower Wishes and Applejacks.

I've sadly never seen any of them in stores here, so I had to buy my Diamond Mint secondhand off eBay. They are gorgeous ponies though! Super pretty and fun <3

Oh really? I found mine ages ago and I thought I saw them the other day at Superstore.

do you guys think it would be possible to take the watery wings off of the winged ones and glue them to the water cuties with the water bodies that way you could have a full-on watery body and winged pony?

Like...could you take the wings off of Lily Blossom and glue them onto a rarity? Pony fusion!

I don't think so. Those wings look pretty big and the fins on the Flip and Flows are translucent.
But you could certainly try it.

The only one of those I have is Blossomforth but she's not here with me right now so I'm not sure how the wings are fixed. I guess the risk would be somehow splitting the plastic when trying to remove them? I suggest thorough research before trying it out...also whether they'd look clunky by the time you'd got them fixed on? They are quite big...

In all fairness, they look too big and clunky for the Water Cuties too. Though I haven't seen them IP.

They are quite. I mean, I like Blossy's wings, but that's partly because she has a cute face that sort of asks why all the fuss...

But when I brought her back from my trip I wrapped her wings carefully as I didn't know if they'd break. She stands fine but she's heavier for them. I wonder if trying to transplant them might upset the centre of balance on the pony?

Could be. Has anyone actually seen a flip and flow in person? How big are they? I sort of thought they'd be as big as swimming pinkie, but I could be wrong.

Flip and Flows are just normal sized ponies, same size as the pearly Mane 6 seaponies.
