Title: My Little Pony Stuff/merchandise in Russia
Post by: Azurii on August 23, 2017, 05:49:10 PM
I did not knew in which category i should post this, but i was very interested in that, i could share some photos of the stuff (merchandise) with G4 that exist in our country. Sorry for my poor knowledge of english, and these ponies i have had mentioned are not mine. If moderators and admins will decide to delete this post, it is ok. In our country we have various kinds of MLP stuff, starting from figurines either big or small, to coloring pages, books and puzzles. There is also school copybooks, and pencils with MLP, this kind of stuff is appeared to be more popular and widespread than any other. Some items you can buy in the small markets, and the others you could find only in special shops filled with toys for children. I went into the last one. I don`t know much about the stuff, so sorry, i would only post this. I came across the new sets called `Guardians of Harmony` in which - Spitfire and Soarin -

You're not bothering anyone. It's fun to see what's in stores in other countries (even if I don't really follow g4)
We also have a ton of similar bootlegs in Estonia.

The Apple Jack water cutie is absolutely adorable!
As for the bootlegs, I've found all sorts of them here, too - often not in English, or with very weird names like "Applepies" and "Pinkerpony". It's always funny to see the different things found across the world!

It`s easy - because our books about MLP not the original ones, but translated. And some translations were `Daring Do and The Marked Thief` (without least words in the original title), but they are good, i`ve read them. Oh, and we also have in malls some school stuff, like erasers (with Celestia, too) and other coloring pages (with Equestria Girls). Coloring pages are different - some with good paper, some with bad. Some even contains of mostly G4 related pictures, but at another page you may see G3.5 Scootaloo or something like that... =o_o= (although G4 pictures in them also are quite strange with Rarity as an alicorn or even Wonderbolt member)

Love this post! I just visited Russia two months ago after hearing my grandmother's stories growing up. I loved it and was super happy I had learned to read Russian before I went. I did manage to find a toy store but the coolest thing was the pony display in Cyrillic. The toys were the same as here although I was tempted to add another foreign language Flip N Whirl RD to my herd, but not for that price! I really wanted to go to a little market and try to find things there but it wasn't possible with the visa I had. I did find some knockoff kinder eggs at a grocery store in Russia so that was something since they are illegal here. Poland was my hotspot for Baltic bootlegs ;) I found a pink earth pony with a cream mane and Rarity's cutie mark that I promptly named Polarity (Polish Rarity) Thanks again for the post!
