Dungeons and Dragons Ponies

Loving those girls LM

Talk about some timing, the artist who did the DM screen (and probably the front box art too?) posted it on Twitter. Her name is Leesha Hannigan ( @LeeshaHannigan) and she's a D&D / Magic: The Gathering illustrator.  It's always nice to be able to connect a specific artist to a product.

Also, she posted a high quality version of the art on her Twitter in case anyone wanted to use it for their desktop:

She put up a close up of Woodheart's almiraj (bunny with horn--it's a real D&D critter!) too.  Awww!

I am not into D&D but I keep getting more and more tempted.  Especially since I found out they are a larger size and not g4 brushable size.

Thank you for posting LadyMoondancer!

I really want one or two -- but alas, not the whole set. u_u;

I'm wondering if their eyes can just be replaced with a water slide decal...

This is my first time seeing the Crossover collection ponies and oh my goodness I love them !

Does anyone else see the mould design as G1 and G3 merged together ??
There's been lots of threads about what G5 could look like recently. If G5 looked like this- (especially that box art !!!) I  would love them.
Does anyone agree or is it just me? Obviously they would be perfection with moulded details and brush- able hair.

They look good quality, I hope they have some weight to them like other good DnD figures.

I liked this set enough that I made a video review of it.    Includes close-ups of all their symbols and info on how to get their robes off, because it might not be immediately evident.

Thanks for the video!

I'm very surprised that these guys aren't generic, and it looks like Hasbro put some thought into this set. I also appreciate the little details about D&D too, thanks for explaining those! It feels like it's been awhile since we've seen a nice creative twist, with backstories, and meaningful details.

Great Review!

 I commented on the video but I will add here that the method they devised for removing the clothes is very odd.  I can imagine games using this set in which someone decides that losing her tail is a quirk of the character.

[Mana Minori]

I was wondering earlier today if these ponies might be the cast of g5. Just hear me out. These ponies are tied loosely, in the box blurb, to Equestria. They are someone reminiscent of the mane 6’s characters. I am already somewhat invested in the idea of falling back toward a more gritty D&D type setting and feel that RaMC had that this set seems to pay tribute to. I don’t think I would mind too much if these were the ponies we would follow in g5 in a more adventure based world. I could picture Tale Spinner pony retelling the now olden legends of the mane 6 as g5 begins, to get the cameo out the way (maybe with Storybelle getting her own cameo to serve as inserting more accuracies to the tale), but yeah... I wouldn’t mind following these guys for a gen.

Much regret in not getting the D&D set! Ugh! I will try and find it someday! :3

[LadyMoondancer]

Thanks guys!  I originally recorded my blind reaction to their symbols (the only one I had peeked at was the Rogue's) but wouldn't you know it, my camera quit recording almost immediately and I didn't realize it.  Whoooops!  It took a long time to rerecord, but it was fun too!

I would love it if they were the G5 ponies, but I think the main cast will be bright rainbow colors. (I'd love to see the D&D ponies get a cameo, though!)

I forgot to mention this in the video, but the Barbarian's trunks do have velcro on the underside.  So potentially her clothes could come off without her tail being removed.  I was worried about stretching the fabric, though, so I did the tail method anyway.  I was a pro by then, lol.

saw this set at gamestop today.  priced at $60 which is higher than
hasbropulse i think

[LadyMoondancer]

They were $60 on Hasbro Pulse too.  I think it's a fair price considering their size, quality, and accessories.   They're about the size of G3s, just a teeny bit smaller. Way larger than the "G4s as retro G1s" set, which I initially thought they would be the same size as.
