mlw.org Big Top is white-bodied, Toppy is yellow-bodied.


I have them both. I like their poses.

Aww, both so cute!

This is one of only 2 sets of twins I don't have, and the only one I probably won't actively seek out. I feel like their colors are redundant to Rattles and Tattles, and I think their names are dumb (again, redundancy here, as Toppy just sounds like a nickname for Big Top, doesn't it? and what does 'Toppy' mean, anyway?). I think they could have come up with something really cute name-wise for circus-themed twins, and done some brighter, more fun colors that hadn't been used in a previous set of twins; Hasbro missed an opportunity for a fun, colorful set here I think.

Otherwise, they are cute, as all newborn twins are, and if I managed to pick them up for cheap or in a lot, I'd consider grabbing them.

Only missing Jabber, Jebber & (deliberately) Rattles & Tattles of this set, so yep I have both.

I love how cute they are, but then most Newborns are cute xxx

I've only got Big Top! I don't totally love this pair but I figure I'll come across Toppy when I come across her.

So cute!  Used to have them but not now...

[Leave a Whisper]

I think they're cute and unique but I don't like the playful dog pose and its my policy not to separate twins so..

[Safflower]

I'll pass, newborns aren't my jam.

[SunPony]

I had Toppy as a kid (not sure how I only had one of them...), I really like him - his pose, colors, symbol - and I'd like to have him again someday.  I don't usually like the newborns but he's an exception.

I am not sure if I have these loose. I know my sister has. I do know I have them MIB. They were one of my earliest MIP ponies and I bought a bunch from this seller back in the late 1990s or early 2000s. I remember they cost $35. And I sent cash, as that was before Paypal.

   so mint in box, lucky

they are super cute, i have them complete, toppy is my favourite

[kingluke]

I want both of them. I like their names.

[StillandSilent]

My friend had them growing up and I was so jealous of her.  We didn't know their names, so we just called them Jack and Jill.  It was always our headcanon that all newborn twins consisted of one boy, one girl.
When I got back into collecting, I had to get them back.

[SkyCakes]

I have both. I think someone gave me one of them in a swap. They are adorable. I just dont have alot of newborn acessories. :/

@shabbychicdee <3 I know. I am a little bit obsessed with newborn twins having never been able to find any of the sets in stores as a kid (I wanted Nibs and Dibs SO much but no joy). They have such fun accessories too.

I think I have 4 twin pairs MIB but I'd like more.  I'd really like the UK ones too. I have the boxes for Nibs/Dibs and Sniffles/Snookums and the former is pretty complete (no sticker :I) but they just look so adorable in there like that.

When I bought BT and TOppy I also had the "Sticky and Sniffles" US boxed set. Which I sold because US names. And then had to buy again later because NEWBORN TWINS. And a UK boxed one doesn't seem to survive (or if it does, I've never seen it.)

...So yeah. Twins ftw.
