New Crane Machine Plush
« on: July 30, 2012, 08:14:28 PM »
So there is a new Pinkie Pie plush in the crane machines now. It's G3.5, but it has the new logo and the Hub logo on her tag. This might be exclusive to the arcade I was at, but one of the crane machines had some pony movies playing on the backdrop of the machine! I thought it was the best thing, but I couldn't take any pictures because 1. No camera and 2. If I did have my camera (which is a DSi), I doubt it would pick up the things on the screen. On to lame pictures of the plushie! Yes! My favorite!

her tail is much longer, it's just curled. also, she is much pinker in real life, i just don't feel like poorly editing it in picasa.

It's to weigh her down in the machine so you can't get her. XD

This one has been out since Easter. It came in the Easter set with a puzzle and luggage that was found at Kmart.

I believe there was a problem with the company, Sherwood Brands, and they didn't get distributed correctly. It could be why it showed up in a claw machine. These were meant as Easter basket filler though.

Edit: Yes, the company went under before Easter... Everything is being liquidated in auctions.... http://www.candyindustry.com/articles/85063-sherwood-brands-to-be-liquidated-through-auctions

To me.. she has the legs of a G3.5 but not the head. It's just not large enough and the eyes are wrong.

I found her at an amusement park (some in large arcades, some in weird 10 machine "arcades" in between the wheels.) They were in at least 10 different machines.

This one has been out since Easter. It came in the Easter set with a puzzle and luggage that was found at Kmart.

Oh, I wouldn't know since my local Kmart was demolished and I haven't really been to once since. I thought it was newer because the whole two minute google search session pulled up nothing. Besides, I would hate to pull out a plushie of such lame quality from my Easter basket. They're not really made for anything besides claw machines.

They didn't make it into too many Easter kits and many Kmarts didn't even stock them. (It wasn't really a basket but a piece of luggage, candy, an egg shaped puzzle, and this plush.) The plush was omitted from some of the sets. I posted looking for this set over on the TP awhile ago and posted that I found it on here not long after.) The company that made the plush went bankrupt early this year. They never made plush for claw machines just holiday gift baskets.

Because of the liquidation it looks like these plush could end up anywhere!

Neat! She has a .. "unique charm" about her!  I'd like more characters!  Wouldn't a Granny Smith in that style be nice!
