Those four look absolutely stunning!! :iconclap: The faithful accuracy of these toys never disappoints. I'm definitely going for Sweet Stuff and Gingerbread, because I don't have their original counterparts yet.
Although, I'm still disappointed I never found the second earth pony set upon release. I don't even believe Target will be carrying MLP reproductions anymore... I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for alterative stores or online websites, perhaps including the one linked here? I certainly hope prices won't be too outrageous in comparison to the past, but we'll see. Regardless, what a truly awesome set of TE ponies!

Galaxy, Speedy, Masquerade & Sweet Pop would be a great second set of these

Ponybookworm, YES!!!! Love this call for a second TE set!

They would look good together, but my Galaxy and Sweet Pop are both in pretty ok condition so I'd probably just go for Speedy and Masquerade.

The eyes look like they're set in nice and tight,  as far as I can tell.

we were so worried theyd have “painted on” gem eyes.  totally satisfied that they went with legit classic gems.

I "love" the same poses we get for three of them! It's just my favorite pose! So blocky, and chunky ... and square... and static... :lmao: But thank goodness we got Fizzy in there!

I'll give them this, they are saving me a lot of money by trying to find a perfect Sweet Stuff and Gingerbread!!

So...a bit frustrating for those of us not in driving distance of a Blain's location, but--according to the customer service rep I chatted with--the TE's will only be sold in physical stores. No online ordering  :(

They will be available in-store only from Oct 1 2021 - Feb 15 2022 as seasonal items in Blain's Holiday Toyland.

I did ask why the TE's are listed on Blain's website if they can't be ordered online. The response was "That is a very good question, the item is shown online for customers to see what we have available in our Toyland."

Anyway, I feel so badly for getting everyone's hopes up on online ordering for the TE's from Blain. I was so excited when I stumbled upon the listing, and never imagined they would be posted online, but not be available for online ordering.

Personally, I'm holding out hope for finding the TE's in Cracker Barrel. I'm just a bit disheartened that, at least so far, there is no direct ordering from retailers for this set. I'm sure they'll hit Amazon around Nov with a big mark up initially, and then settle after a few months. That seems to be what's happened with the Sparkler and Tootsie sets...

Aw, no! Blain, my last hope!

It's alright, I was able to find the most recent wave locally at some smaller Mom n Pop shops, it'll be good to support them again. :)

the distribution practices are idiotic.

From everything I've read so far, it sounds like you guys don't expect these will (ever) be sold by Amazon then?  :(

I'm just a little confused because some of the reproductions, such as Gusty and Posey, are still available on (European) Amazon, while others I don't know if they were ever sold there or ever will.

Being based in Europe, Amazon is simply my best bet for any MLP repros  -_-
