I had never heard of these before today, an accidental discovery looking at Heart Throb's page. Apparently they are some kind of plush sticker that can be reattached to different things? Does anyone in the Arena have some? :0 I don't see where I usually look for sales and those sorts of things and the pictures are pretty limited on the wiki, and I would love to see pics ! :nerdy:

I don’t have any MLP Stickle pics to share but I’d love to see some pics too. I remember having a Care Bear Stickle when I was little. I think they are flat on the back and plush on front.

They’re not plush exactly. They’re molded styrofoam(I think) that’s flocked, and they have real, brushable hair. I had one as a kid, and I’m not so sure about the reattaching to different things claim. They had a pretty solid glue on the back. That glue hasn’t aged well, and even MOC ones usually have unsticky backings these days.
I collect them now when I can find them. They pop up here and there, both loose and MOC. I can’t do pics right now as I’m out of town, but a google search of images should have a few hits. Some are much rarer than others, and MOC ones can run a pretty penny. Even loose common ones rarely sell for less than $10.

that's interesting, which country are you from if you don't mind me asking? it seems like some pony products are easier to find depending on that, I can't find any hits looking here in the USA as of rn

I’m in the USA. Another friend of mine who had one as a child was also in the USA, and as far as I can remember, all my Stickle purchases have been within the USA. They’re not common, but they’re out there. They pop up on ebay occasionally, and sometimes people in the pony community have a few for sale. It’s one of those things you have to consistently keep an eye open for. And sometimes you have to go outside the usual ebay searches. They’re a “shows up once very few months” sort of thing instead of something you’ll always find for sale. They also show up in accessory lots sometimes, or in vintage sticker albums.

I used to have a catalog from the company that was licensed to make stickles. I think their name was AmToy. They were sold in the US (and maybe other places, not sure.)
Anyway, like people have said, they are soft (felt?) reusable "stickers" (kind of??) with brushable hair. I've never owned one but they're super cute!
Edit: Here's are some stickles from ended eBay listings. :)
