Title: Basic Fun G1 Mash'ems
Post by: Gator on June 05, 2019, 02:16:01 PM
I searched to see if there was a thread on these, but only found them listed on the "Out now and coming soon" thread. 
But I found them today at Walgreens here in Georgia, USA.  Since they are expensive, and I hated the whole Loyal Subjects experience of getting stuck with doubles (I hate blind bags), I only bought three.  They are really small but cute.  But of course, I got a Minty and TWO Blossoms.  Of course I'd get a double.
So anyway, looks like these are making their way out.  Now, if anyone wants to trade for a Blossom, let me know LOL!

I had horrible luck with the Loyal Subjects ponies. I ended up getting Firefly almost every time I bought one. I might get one of these.

I plan on getting them but I need to figure out a way to display them without letting them get dusty.  I guess a little clear container would work.
I haven't seen these yet but I do hope to get them all!

They've been out here ages.

A tip with identifying which pony before buying. They don't have codes but there are the air holes on the bottom and it is possible to see the colour of the pony through those. It's harder to discern the difference between Blossom/Bluebelle/Snuzzle (I assume, haven't actually found Snuzzle yet) but Minty and Butterscotch are obvious and I imagine CC is as well. I managed to pick four different ones using this method (Minty, Buttercotch, Bluebelle  and Blossom).

Taffeta, I thought I could try that.  I thought I glimpsed pink on one, but I was wrong as I got purple, white and green.  Poo!
Tailrustedtealeaf, I agree.  They have a tacky feel and most definitely will get dirty unless I put them in something.

If I come across them I'll try to use my phone flashlight to see if I can get a better glimpse inside. 
And yeah, I've had some G4 ones of these and the ones out next to my bedside table are just dusty and grossss.

I guess it does also depend on how good the lighting is in the store ;)

I will try this if I ever find them. :) My stores are pretty much stuck on the same stock right now.

I have done this too with g4 ones pretty successfully. Can be difficult and not fool proof though.

I still haven't seen these ones anywhere, kind of sad about it. Definitely anticipated their arrival in my turf.

These are so cute! I got 3 off Tradera, hoping I wouldn't get any doubles. I was lucky and got three different ones, but not the Minty I was really hoping for. :( All well, I did manage to get the sparkly Cotton Candy! Sooo pretty. <3

I only like coded blind bags to be honest. Some consider it cheating, I consider it mercy on my wallet.

I haven't seen any g1 fashems here in the netherlands, but most physical stores are going out of business here.

I recommend buying them loose, like I did with the loyal subjects, but the pric es on ebay are downright criminal.

I was able to find these yesterday at Walmart.

Does anyone that has opened these know if they're made of rubber or latex? I am allergic to rubber and latex so I will have to pass on these if they're made from that even though they're really cute and I want some.  :sad:

This review (https://www.todays-woman.net/2017/toy-game-reviews/fashems/) from a few years ago says that:
 "They are made of a substance called thermo plastic rubber, which is rated non-toxic and not a latex or rubber allergen." All of the fash'ems are the same material.

Thank you tailrustedtealeaf.  I might pick up a couple of these now.  :)

I looked through the holes and saw yellow. (I got lucky that Butterscotch was stuck over one of the holes  :lol) and I thought pink and blue or purple. I got Butterscotch, Bluebelle and Snuzzle

I got an extra Blossom, but I found these and was lucky enough to grab 5/6 in my first go. Just need Minty!
