Quote from: shabbychicdee on February 20, 2019, 05:24:54 PMthose flutter wings look as tough as nails and built to last bridge direct sure are listening aren't they.But that's the problem as well. Flutters are a risky choice of retro because getting the wings so they don't break but don't disappoint is going to be a challenge.I am also concerned about whether they will have the right sparkle. There is an irridescence to the original wings which, as I mentioned before, is easily dulled by layers of dust, discolouration...and perhaps overly thick reproduction :/ While I absolutely accept the flutters could not be rereleased with wings as flimsy as those we grew up with, I would still rather they didn't make the set than compromised on the delicacy and beauty of the set's main feature.How you do that I don't know, I'm not the manufacturer. I just think it's a gamble.

I can see why they'd skip sea ponies in favor of flutter ponies- maybe they didn't have as wide of appeal or there were issues with packaging or cost of production (like the shells?)I'm sure that is why they are skipping the larger play sets, they probably decided it was unlikely stores would pick up something so large solely for nostalgiaI do hope they jump to baby ponies next!
do you think there is a possibility lemon drop might be a test run too so may not make it into production?I would love to see them do sprinkles and go by the box prototype so she will be blue with blue hair and if they don't do the big playsets they could do a box set of playset ponies like lemon drop, majesty, sprinkles etc..
Also, the thought of mint twinkle eye ponies with unscratched eyes *drools*

I agree on the confetti bombs...I don’t like them either. I try to open them over a plastic shopping bag.I wish the Flutter Ponies included Rosedust. I know she wasn’t along until year 4 of the Flutter Ponies, but I had a canteen with Rosedust but never had her as a pony.
