New York Toy Fair 2020!

Yeah geeze, Tootsie is neon. Also, Sparkler's tail being half purple half red is interesting.

Still not a single pony life Rainbow Dash. I was hoping for mane 6 brushables, and I’m still let down.

Yeah I'm really surprised they didn't show her there? We know she's coming out because of the (now deleted) trailer for the toys...

Ooooo Sparkler was my first pony as a child! I may have to cave in and get her when Basic Fun releases her, even though I still have my original (quite beat up er loved) and several minty versions of her lol.

Oh,  I’m loving the Basic Fun’s!!  This is so exciting to see!

I don’t have a Tootsie, so I hope she turns a bit more green in the final release.  I like the new color, but I like the old color more.  I also love Sparkler’s new tail!  I hope they keep it.  Would be neat to see Gusty’s tail with a 2nd color too.

Hooray for Toyfair!
And Surprise! Even though she wasn't at the UK one, everybody kind of knew she'd be on the set but it's nice to see her for real with the insta photos you found. But really, why are photos of BF so hard to find? I was doing tons of searches all over the internet and that insta is the ONLY photo of BF that I could find at all that wasn't their new electronic care bears or whatever. It's weird, it's like no coverage...

I'm still SUPER happy with the new set coming out.
This gang is just so nostalgic...it seems like for lots of people. I must own them all!
Cherries Jubilee with that soft pink hair...so nice. She'll look a cute variant.
I do wonder why they're treating Sparkler differently than everyone else.
Dollyhair has "Wisteria" hair that is her exact color from days of old, so it is well known that companies can make such a color.

I hope there's more news from them since this lasts thru Tuesday, I think.

If the pony life pillows go on clearance I'll be harvesting the embroidery to make patches.
I guess it'll be nice to have yet another year to focus my hobby budget elsewhere.

Yeah, this is how I see it, too. Hasbro's loss is other companies' gain

They were all (except Surprise) at our Toy Fair in London in Jan so we can hope to see them at some point this year

Additional Basic Fun photos.  Sadly, there seem to have been no other ponies at the booth.  And at least one person on Facebook claimed that the Basic Fun people said that they where having trouble finding retailers so this might be the last set.

Doesn't seem to be a shortage of retailers here, they keep appearing in more and more places :/ But I guess the US market is going to make or break the line in the end.

Ugh nothing good by Hasbro this year.

Maybe we need to start a Basic Fun Arena at this point.

If they would open up orders on their site for us to buy from them directly, I would in a heartbeat.  Even if it was a little more expensive because I had to pay shipping and didn't get a bulk discount, it would be worth it because I don't make it to Target overly often as it's an hour away and nowhere closer to me sells these.  I know they sell on Amazon but they only seem to put up the extra stock that they didn't send to the retailers so it's hit or miss if the ones I'm looking for will be available for purchase.  (Seriously, why don't they want our money?)

I would so buy from them. Still, we can't be too mad. They've done a phenomenal job so far.
