And I know where four TRU's are >)  Plus, my dad travels for business and knows where even more are, so I can send him searching.

THe wait for them to be released is going to be killer.

These look awesome, and I'm all for more toys of characters from the show (and the accurately-colored Celestia), but does anybody else kinda feel like these are basically just catering to the brony side of the fanbase?

I mean, a lot of these characters (the DJ, Nightmare Moon, etc.) have been done as customs hundreds of times. It almost feels like they're only going with what they think will sell to the bronies.

This is the official MLP FB page :)  https://www.facebook.com/mylittlepony (https://www.facebook.com/mylittlepony)

Unless this is the most cruel joke ever, It's totally official. They actually sent this to EQD first as exclusive news. And now that I look more closely, I am really happy to see the dark blue and yellow pony. Finally some different colors! And I think the pink pony has green hair? Is she one of the flower background ponies?

My eyes are watering from this. I may actually want the Nightmare Moon figure, which would go against my otherwise lack of interest in the toys. Not to mention she looks very TV accurate along with the much-awaited WHITE Princess Celestia.

The only sad part is that large-size Princess Cadence's wings are way better than white Celestia's glove wings.  But oh well . . . white Celestia!   That is still incredibly cool!

I have never been this excited for the FiM toys. Now to hope that either it's talking NM and she has more fitting lines or not talking at all but I guess I just wouldn't put the batteries in for her talking.

I.... I still think it's too good to be true, even if it did come from the official page. I don't know what to believe! They all look a little... off. Plus didn't Hasbro specifically say they weren't doing a white Celestia ever? Didn't someone not too long ago actually interview someone there and ask them that?

Plus I refuse to believe Hasbro would do a pony as dark black and blue as NMM without tweaking it to be more "girly"! Even an "evil" pony.

This is for certain, right? No hoax? It's just... TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. :whoa:

Zecora, Nightmare Moon, white Celestia... DJ! I'm so pleased Hasbro are listening. And so excited!

Soooo happy to see Zecora! She was one I really wanted but wasn't getting my hopes up. I hope they'll make more zebras... Ahhh imagining a pink one with green stripes now. G4 Zig Zag!


Can't wait to for better pics of Nightmare Moon. I hope they make a white Celestia of that size.

I have a feeling that this line is going to be 1) more expensive and 2) collector aimed.  TRU is known for having collectible toys in many of the boy toys lines.  The one that pops into my head at the moment is the Thundercats ones. They have a line of retro Thundercats that are larger, more detailed, and completely cartoon accurate to the 80's version.  They do the same with Spiderman, Batman, Superman, etc all the time.
 
Who says they haven't listened to us before?  We got the 25th anniversary collectors edition, didn't we?  They just chose the ponies poorly, priced them too high, and manufactured them cheaply, so they didn't sell well. 
 
I'm so jazzed.  Haven't been this excited about new ponies since it was announced that Blind Bags would be at the fair last year!

Maybe Zercora will be a Halloween pony! I hope these ponies aren't going to be US exclusives...

I'd be cool if Vinyl Scratch came with a DJing playset, and Nightmare Moon came with an awesome castle of doom.

I don't pay attention to other lines like Thundercats since I'm not into them, so I wouldn't have known that lol. That does make sense though, doing it as a collector's edition type thing, but that's kind of a scary thought. I hope they'll be good quality and/or not TOO expensive.


I still think it's strange as I do remember someone on here getting a very clear in-person "No" to the white Celestia. I don't remember who it was, but then again it was also in another country. Maybe they just didn't get the memo  :P  I'm hesitant to get excited because if it's not real I'm going to be bummed, and if it's real but too expensive I'm going to be even more bummed!


Oh well, either way, they are super duper cool. A very strange assortment of ponies even for collectors, but still cool. The DJ pony is a bit out of place if you ask me. It's not catering so much to collectors in general as to specifically "bronies". Not that its a bad thing, lol. It's nice that any sort of collector is getting attention. I don't even know what I'm saying anymore. I need more coffee.

Is that... Flower Wishes (She's been called Daisy in the show) in the very back?  I've been planning on making a custom of her for a while because she just appeared so often in the show and it had become a game with my fiance to try to spot her...lol.  Now I can just buy the official one XD

Also: MUST HAVE ZECORA!!!  And Nightmare Moon!!!  And Trixie!!! OK THEM ALL!

I just saw this on FB and raced over here. XD OMG YAY! :D

And bronies are incredibly prolific in showing their passion for the show - the quality and volume of fanworks is astounding.  Fanart, comics, music, fanfics, customs, plushies, PMVs, original animation - it's mind-blowing how much media is produced as a response to this show.  After months of continued, never-waning passion for the series, of course Hasbro is gonna sit up and take notice of this demographic, and assess them as a potential market.  I'm so happy they finally responded with some of the "most-wanted" merchandise, e.g. a white Celestia.
 :D

^ THIS!  It always astounds me on what awesome stuff is created by the fan community. I mean, you don't see that with a lot of things, especially toys existing for almost 30 years originally targeted toward little girls (with exception to the collector exclusives released over the years). I'm extremely happy that they are listening and creating some much-asked for stuff for the adult fans and collectors!

Either way, this is exciting, nonetheless!  And I shall just spend the time waiting for fall by cleaning, reorganizing, and cleaning some more to make room for everything! (and then wait some more, as Bangor seems to get things months and months after it's been found everywhere else!)

Celestia certainly looks much more pretty in white with all the right colored accessories. I bet the brony comm. is blowing up over the fan favorite ones like the DJ, but I'm really interested in the brushables! It looks like Lemon Hearts, Flower Wishes and Lulamoon maybe. Zecora is pretty cute too. Lucky there's a Toys R us so close to me, now just gotta wait to see if they actually get them and how long it takes TT

WOW, that's fantastic!!! I would love to have Zecora, and I wish that the next releases would be the Wonderbolts and Big Macintosh.

In my opinion the children market is decreasing (they play less with toys and more with videogames, become teenagers earlier, etc.), so toy companies are a bit more devoted to adult collectors. I think that this is part of the exist of Monster High dolls, for example.

Hasbro is listening to its cash cow--I mean, Fans! :P I look forward to Nightmare Moon, DJ Vinyl Scratch and Celestia (I can call her by her proper name now because she isn't pink!) :D

And your comment on kids vs adult collectors is very interesting in how the toy world is polarizing like that possibly. More and more adults playing with toys? XD

Well since I have NO idea who these ponies are (other than the DJ pony that I've seen in half a dozen PMVs) - I'm not sure still. I have to admit a glow in the dark pony is pretty cool. I'm guessing it's the zebra looking one, right?

Nightmare moon, is that a "bad" pony? Or is she related to the Luna/Celestia family?

Who is the blue unicorn?

yeah, sorry - I'm sure everyone else knows who these ponies are but me (dang cableless house...)

Nightmare Moon is the villain pony from S1E1+2
The blue unicorn is Trixie, aka The Great and Powerful Trixie as seen from the FiM episode "Boast Busters"

LEMON HEARTS!! WHAHOOO WE HAVE A YELLOW UNICORN!!! WITH BLUE HAIR.. she was totally my #1 to blind bag to become a brushable.


I'm also excited for Zecora and Lulamoon/Trixie. Nightmare Moon is cool, too. Not sure I want Celestia- She's a  bit large compared to my shelf. Flower wishes/Daisy is cute but nothing mindblowing. DJ P0N-3 looks a little strange. These ARE prototypes, though. But what's with the standard fare RD and Pinkie Pie just chilling?


I'm happy that I have a Toys R Us in walking distance of my house  I'm sure people near them (including myself) will be happy to help those far from them out =]

other angles for you guys, aaaand LYRA!


If I HEARD correctly,
the background ponies will be a set for 34.99
Zecora will be 9.99 (hope I heard that wrong, and yes she is glow in the dark)
and celestia will be 19.99
only if I heard that right.
and all of those are TRU exclusive.


And lyra was on another shelf, so I don't think she's TRU exclusive too

Already thinning on top...Bet he goes bald by the time he's 29. Heh heh. I like his colors, though. His nose is more streamlined than, say, Big Mac's. Wonder if that's just a prototype, or if that's how it will be (conveying, I suppose, aristocracy...)

Post by: ShortyBoo on February 11, 2012, 01:59:10 PM
I was so excited until I saw the part about them being TRU exclusive. The TRU that used to be just down the street from where I live closed down like 5 years ago and the closest one to me is about an hour drive. That is, if it's still open. I haven't been there in years, so the closest one could be even farther. Then there's the fact that everything at TRU is way over-priced. Why couldn't they be Wal-Mart or Target exclusive? So now what I'll likely have to do is get someone else to buy them for me and then I'll have to pay shipping, which I hate doing.

The one I'm really, really excited about is Trixie. I've been wanting a Trixie since Boast Busters first aired. I definitely want her. The others, I'd have to wait to see better pics before I decide if I like them or not. Something about the Zecora toy looks off to me. And while I'm happy to see they finally made a white Celestia, I'd much prefer a white version of the smaller brushable that came with Twilight Sparkle and Spike. Maybe now that we're getting a Nightmare Moon in that mold, we'll eventually get a white Celestia in that size as well. I also love Cadence and Shining Armor, but if they're only sold with the castle, I probably won't be able to get them unless I could find someone to sell the castle to, since I don't have the room for it.

I still hate Shining Armor's hair, but that is what rerooting is for . . . Though I feel bad for little girls who have no rerooting capabilities and would probably like a boy pony with "nice" hair."


Cadence is "eh" to me, but I'll bet (and hope) her mold will be used for another Princess Luna toy.  If you look closely, you can see Princess Luna's shoes are part of her mold.

Lyra! I didn't see her earlier. I've always loved Trixie and Lyra's designs the best and have been wanting toys of them for so long and we're finally getting them!

I wonder who all is in the $35 set? For that price, I'm guessing it would have 6 ponies, 7 if there are no accessories. So it could be Lemon Hearts, Flower Wishes, Trixie, Lyra, Nightmare Moon, DJ P0N-3 and since they're standing near them, probably Pinkie and Dash.

That doesn't necessarily mean anything. Last year the LPS shelves weren't set up properly and several of the sets were mixed together. This was especially true with the Blythe sets, where pets from another set would be put with the wrong doll. Was Lyra even by any other ponies? It just seems weird they'd release her alone. I mean, if she was part of a singles wave, wouldn't there be other new ponies sitting with her?

WIth a Toys R Us across the street from me, I hope I can manage to snag some of these. Money is always tight, so we'll see how things look when they actually get released.

If I have extra money to buy extras (or people wire me money to buy when found), I'd be happy to ship them to overseas people who have a hard time finding them, for no extra fees. Just whatever it costs in store + shipping. I wouldn't say no to a tip though ;)

Rewatched it.


She pointed to all the ponies of the shelf except for Celestia and Zecora and said it would be one package. (34.99)




But really, I don't see why she would be on the opposite end. The rep would was veeery excited to point her out. So I'd imagine if she was part of the TRU exclusives, she'd be sititng with the other ones. *shrug*

*puts on glasses*  Are those 2 on the steps of the castle new babies?  I think I see Scoots in there by the staircase, but the other 2 look brand new :D  And as much as I am not hugely thrilled that ponies from the show are making it in, I have to say....I'm loving Heartstrings!  I love minty green, so I definitely will  be picking her up.  Awww and the envelopes!  They're so small and cute :D  As for the new pic of Cadance and Shining Armor, I am really loving SA's snoot.  I'm not too keen on those wide snoots on ponies like Big Macintosh.  This one seems perfect, to me at least.  I just kinda wish they would sell SA separately as well as in the set.  I'd love to customize one, but it wouldn't be worth buying two $40-something castles just to get my hands on two SA's :P

I'll keep my comments about attention given to bronies vs collectors to myself as not to further derail the thread. Besides, new ponies are much more exciting than debating anyway. I am SO happy to see a Nightmare Moon! As with boy ponies, I honestly thought it would never happen. Loving Zecora too. (And omg, she GLOWS? Kinda weird, but if you're going to make a glowing pony, Zecora is a good choice...and its cool to see a pony that has a special feature. The new line seems to be sorely lacking that, when the G1s had so many!) White Celestia is also very nice :) I'm not a big fan of Vinyl Scratch...DJ Pon-something-or-other...but all the others are pretty nice. I'm seeing a very refreshing lack of pink, as well. And I'm happy that there might be flower girls who aren't the CMC after all. Yaaay!

So, we've got a brushable Nightmare Moon and Heartstrings/Lyra...now all we need is a Roseluck and I can die happy :)



Who's the new pegasus? She's cute


She looks like a Mama Scootaloo! I thought she WAS Scoot at first, until I realized that wait, Scoot's wings are a lot smaller than that :P

could just be trixie again u__u;

Ooh. Looks like Trixie and Lyra/heartstrings will be single 'wedding guest' ponies?? I really hope so! That would mean more chance of them being widely available internationally and more other places than Toys r Us

I saw these on Tumblr earlier and I thought they were just someone's customs!
I am really surprised Hasbro is making these ponies. I will have to make sure to save up for them. The nearest TRU is a little bit of a drive away, but I think it is totally worth it for some of these ponies. Especially Vinyl Scratch and Lyra! I really hope they make Bon Bon too~

I dunno. it's probably bad to assume anything from bad screenshots. @__@~
I'm not sure if I am excited or not. I love baby ponies, so I'm excited to learn what those other little baby ponies are up near the castle.

I imagine that peg is just fluttershy tho. u__u~ (I wouldn't want to get any hopes up! lol) .

If white Celestia is $20, doesn't that actually make her cheaper than Huge Pinkestia?  I thought Pinkestia was $25.
Title: Re: OH MY GOD THEY DID IT!!!!!!! New toys, and white Celestia!
Post by: MikaUtsukushi on February 11, 2012, 03:41:07 PM
Oh man... where to start.


I love that Celestia is white finally. I wonder if the VA did some acting for it or I could not buy a double of a thing I already have just edited.


As for the showsclusive ponies I am glad they are being released I just hope the 18 individual are just regular price instead of $30 for a bunch of them.


I'm hoping that they give them original Hasbro names. I don't really like the names that the fans gave all the background ponies so I'm hoping that Hearstrings is Heartstrings and such. (Lyra to me will always be the girl from HG/SS)


And I would just love that display shelf. Where to put it however is just mindboggling. XD


Also what's the playsets in the middle of the stairs. It looks like Pinkie Pie with a scooter.

I will be this summer though.  Yippee!  And I love Shining Armor and Princess Cadence.  Gosh... how am I going to afford them all!

I'm surprised there's so much neat stuff. Last year the stuff Hasbro showed was pretty boring. I mean, all they showed last year was like Rarity's Carousel, Pinkie Pie's car and I think one of those big baby doll type ponies. I don't remember them showing any singles or anything. I really wish they had Minty there, though. I've been waiting so long for news of her official release and it was a long time ago that she was on Taobao.

Is anyone else surprised that none of this new stuff leaked on Taobao before now? It just seems like usually we first see new MLP stuff months in advance on Taobao. I really like this better, though, because at least we know it's coming and that it wasn't a prototype or whatever.

I too kinda wondered about them not showing up on taobao first... especially the prince and princess set (as we have known about them for a tiny bit now).

It doesn't look like it from the picture, but it would be neat if you could take her glasses off.
Then we can finally find out what her eye colors is! Though I doubt Hasbro would make them red like how most fan interpretations are.

I am excited for these ponies!

I just really hope they don't come in a set. I don't want to buy them all. I really don't like the DJ pony her glasses scare me. :(

I however would LOVE Lemon Hearts, Heart Strings, Trixie/Lulamoon, Zecora, and Night Mare moon!

Someone mentioned that it would be a set of background ponies? I bet the placed Pinkie and Rainbow Dash in the set instead of the Candy Mane and Heart Strings. Like someone said before, the LSP set from the Toy Fair was all sorts of wrong. I hope this isn't the case though!

Hmm I also just remembered them mentioning "18 ponies with wedding accessories" in another early NY toy fair release statement, some of whom we saw in the video (ex: heartstrings, lulamoon, and other unnamed). So we should see at least one or two new waves of 6 new ponies!  :)
Title: Re: OH MY GOD THEY DID IT!!!!!!! New toys, and white Celestia!
Post by: banditpony on February 11, 2012, 04:28:47 PM
I am the one who used the word background ponies.


But the rep pointed to pinkie pie, rainbowdash, NMM, DJ pon-3, Trixie, Lemon whats her face, and the pink one... and said that was a set that was to be available at TRU.
Which was also on facebook's page that all those pictured (also white Celestia, and Zecora) are the TRU.


:/ I don't get why they would post it up on facebook falsely as well.

I was wondering why they made Zecora glow in the dark... if you think about it Glow in the dark stuff is usually that greenish color, so it may be reminiscent of the SFX magic she used in Luna Eclipsed.



On a side note does anyone know what the red text says on what I think is the sales rep's Rainbow Dash shirt? Looks like something from WeLoveFine. Its at 3:08 in the video.

Man I am just so excited about everything, this is all awesome news! Princess cadence or whatever looks pretty rad too. Maybe they can make celestia white because they have a shiny new pink princess to sell?

also, has any pony before been as dark (almost black, looks like) as that Nightmare moon? It'd be cool if she were the first so dark!

I know why they have decided to release some of the "background characters" seriously, think about the ammount of customs that have been sold of these "characters" they would be mental not to. Even if they do keep preaching "its aimed at little girls" they have a huge adult fanbase as well. It may not be as big as that of the kiddies, but it does seem to matter some because they seem to have listened & given in to what the fans wanted.

It may not be as big as that of the kiddies, but it does seem to matter some because they seem to have listened & given in to what the fans wanted.

Well, they might be thinking that the little girls / their parents will buy them anyway because they're still pretty ponies and they appear in the show, which is a proven way to sell toys since the early 80s at least. Then again, the "target demographic" might not specifically remember who, say, Trixie is, but they may still want a lovely blue pony (I would!). This way they can still sell to their target audience AND they get their disposable income-possessing, incredibly spendy, fervent adult fanbase to go absolutely nuts and BUY BUY BUY from them as well (and hopefully dip into the apparently limitless amount of money people are willing to spend on customs of these characters).

Honestly, it seems like win-win to me, though I'm, of course, not a marketing dude. White Celestia was a freaking no-brainer though. Seriously. Little girls aren't stupid.

Fandom craze aside, it just makes sense for the toys they release to be ponies that appear on the show. I remember that lots of us (me included) were complaining that none of the non-mane 6 toys were in the show at all. 

I'm especially ecstatic about Lemon Hearts! Except, OH NO! Her eyes are blue instead of red. The red was something that made her especially stunning.

Ah so this is all of it huh? Not bad~ I wish the photographer didn't really focus so much on the Flutter wing ponies. I mean, they're nice but it's nothing we haven't seen before and I'd rather see some new stuff. Also I wish someone could have moved that pink pony's tail out of the way... it looked like it could have been Lily from the show but that tail is covering it up.  Looks like a good year.

I'm super excited about this. I never EVER would have expected Hasbro to make these characters.

Only things I can think to add are that I wish we'd seen more about the Fashion Style Princesses and I hope they make white Celestia in a different mold. But even a talking one is a huge step forward and gives me hope for more. Looks like Nightmare Moon can only be bought in that expensive set and at Toys-R-Us. Little drawback, as the closest near me is a 3 hour drive away, but where there's a will, there's a way!

Can I just say that this picture makes him look not at all happy to be getting married? lol!




Sorry if it's been pointed out, this thread is growing faster than I can read!

He's probably thinking of the divorce papers if it doesn't work out.

lol I'm sorry, I just had to. :lol:  *Imagines a little girl playing out that plot with this set*

xDD My friend just said the same thing. How will they divide the castle's assets?! Okay you can have the swing, but I get the banners.
maybe they can sign a prenup

I was thinking maybe the yellow peg is actually a reissue of Diamond Rose. If we could SEE her mark! It frustrates me watching videos like that because I can't move the camera myself. I don't want to seem ungrateful but he kinda zeroed in on Lyra and the weird thing is that those ones don't even appear in the ASM photos :O

If the placement is all correct, it looks like Nightmare Moon, DJ Pon3, Trixie, Lily/Daisy, Lemon Hearts, Pinkie and Dash are in the set but if you can't get it, Trixie and Lily/Daisy will also be sold in the widely released brushable packs. I'm not super excited about the DJ because I've seen better customs and I'll be kinda bummed if I can't get Nightmare Moon but I REALLY want Lemon Hearts to be available seperately for baits as well as having one. But that would probably mean Lyra would be exclusive instead :(

These look awesome, and I'm all for more toys of characters from the show (and the accurately-colored Celestia), but does anybody else kinda feel like these are basically just catering to the brony side of the fanbase?

I mean, a lot of these characters (the DJ, Nightmare Moon, etc.) have been done as customs hundreds of times. It almost feels like they're only going with what they think will sell to the bronies.

Who gives a flip!? :lol: I mean seriously... Hasbro... actually... LISTENED! :whoa: What a freaking CONCEPT!!! :silly:

And no... even though they are, in a way, catering to the BRONY fanbase... guarenteed there will be tons of little girls SQUEEING as  much as we Bronys are... ;)

I know I would be, if I was still a little girl! I can't remember how many times... ALL I WANTED was for some lesser known characters to be made into figures! Be they from movies or TV shows. The most desperate one I can think of... was Nala. BOY did I want an ADULT Nala toy when I was young! I even wrote a letter to the toy company (tho I didn't actually send it)...

That said... *SQUEE*!!!! WHITE Celestia! (with painted boots! *faints*.... and the best... a ZECORA!!! :drunk: She is the one I am MOST excited about! Not terribly hot on the "glow in the dark"... but it's ZECORA!!!!! :D
 
 
EDIT: Hum... methinks these new "Mane 6" gals... have GLITTERY Cutie marks!?

The funny thing about Rays is that they obviously chose her because they saw the design and liked it (or the other way a round?) She wasn't picked because she was a fan favorite. Nobody really knows who she is, but obviously somebody noticed her. "Rays" is kinda a generic placeholder name anyway, I wonder what they will call her!

Whoah, that Pinkie does look like her symbol has some glitter, ladybrooklyn.  They probably figured they had to do SOMETHING new with the figure itself. Tinsel goes ratty and there's only so many times you can sell a kid the same identical figure.

I just hate Sweden right now D:

I really would like to get an American shopper to get everything of these stuff for me

Here in Sweden we have ridiculous customs. So when you pay 5$ for a pony in US, I pay 80Sek = 12$ for a pony here in Sweden. The blindbags are 1,5$ in America, 4-5$ in Sweden.

Especially the Wedding castle set I want to order from an American sweet Pony lover, that set will be so pricey in Sweden, it will probably cost 80-90$ here D:

I think I may have some painting to do for the NM toy because she looks more purple-y in the photo but even if not, at least her horn and body will be the same color because her horn is blue, which IIRC in the show is black, that is of course if I find her cheaply on eBay.

Is there any point to anyone making these news threads if we're not allowed to express our opinion?  Seems like if the opinion isn't "YAYYYY more ponies to spend money on!", any other speculations are frowned upon.  :( 

However.... I called white Celestia!  ;)  I figured they would eventually have to cave to nearly every fan's request that she be released in a toy in  the proper color.    Shining Armour's hair is absolutely terrible.. troll hair, gross!  How are you supposed to style and brush that?!  Molded sunglasses on Vinyl Scratch that are painted and not removable?  Geez Hasbro... 

Well, as usual, if I see them at the thrift store, I'll pick them up for trades but I'm certainly not interested in owning them myself!

Unfortunately, they probably won't be pearly. A lot of prototype ponies look/are that way for some reason, but when they do come out in stores, they never really are. It happened in G3 and when we first saw G4, too.

But dang, I am impressed. I will be getting all of these. Hasbro, take all of my money. Just take it.

It's Trixie. For whatever reason (I'm guessing the toy designers don't watch the show) when they came out with the Trixie blind bag (wave 4) they called her Lula Moon instead of Trixie. Even if the brushable is called Lula Moon, I'm going to call her Trixie. Just like I'll always think of Heart Strings as Lyra.

LOL! XD I can just imagine now in years and years time there might be posts like "Ohh man do you remember the old days - when Celestia was PINK?"
"Yeah I saw her on eBay the other day for like $350!"

My mind has started working a lot like this lately; I was thinking a slightly similar thing about the new light-haired Fluttershy, maybe on a much lesser scale... It's just that everything people get hyped about in changes to ponies, I end up thinking that the earlier, different versions would end up going for more, especially if they are going to get phased out by the newer ones.

I guess though, customs could "muddy the issue" especially with how easy it is just to rehair the Fluttershy... I guess the real thing in that sense is the date on her hoof...
- Wao I really am thinking waaaay too much into this! I don't even know if I'd ever have the heart to sell my ponies! XD

It depends how long the g4 line runs.

She might start becoming a super common thrift store find in the next few years. There's a lot of pinklestia not selling in stores currently. I can only see pinklestia becoming sought over in the future if many white celestia's are sold in stores for an extended period of time, and so the white version becomes more common & accessible.

Or alternatively, this white celestia might become super sought after if it becomes the only official white celestia. Personally I think they're moving towards her being white in the toyline now since there has already been an unconfirmed factory made white fashion style celestia spotted with cutie mark on taobao. I feel it will almost definitely get released since there's a matching updated confirmed luna fashion style. And we have another pink princess alicorn to thank for holding that place of girliest pink unicorn toy conceivable. haha

In any case, I don't forsee pinklestia's rarity or price increasing anytime soon...but if you like pinklestia I'd keep a look out for store sales, thrift stores, and garage sales this summer. Her price will drop with the excitement her new version coming out.

I'm kinda fed up of unicorn babies... Out of all the babies that are not the CMC, they're all unicorns...

Agreed, but probably because I'm still so much in love with SCOOTALOO'S TEENY WINGS OMG.  I want more pegasus babies!

YES! I wonder why the didn't put out a set of cherubic pegasai instead. I mean, these are cool but they need to use that mold more often!

So Celestia has a Russian nephew? :silly:  And isn't that Blueblood in the pic with Rarity? Blueblood=Vladimir? I'm confused now. :what:
Title: Re: New toys, and white Celestia!
Post by: Taxel on February 12, 2012, 03:19:26 PM
Leon is a baby Prince Blueblood. They're identical aside from the wings.

But honestly I doubt they'd have a four year old and just now be getting married. While that's perfectly fine in real life and such, its not so appropriate in a cartoon for young children. We don't need "lol get pregnant, great things happen when you have a baby ASAP!" promoted to children any more than it already is.

Even though the pictures from the show have them with one colored hair, it looks like the brushables have multicolored hair! Yay! I just can't wait until they come out, it's going to seem like forever!

I hope they are of better quality than the current ones.
I got Twinkleshine and PlumSweet yesterday, they were kinda hidden behind their "The Ticked Master" DVD... but once I opened then, their body and head color doesn't matches :(
That's, imo, the worst flaw a pony can have.

Sad that not even Plumsweet, who is white, matches perfectly :( Really poor quality.
Didn't bought the other ones because even with the DVD I could see they didn't match.

Saw at EqD. I was shocked. Looks like the Bronies should embraced that Hasbro listens to their loyal fanbase, while the kids can still enjoy them ponies!

I won't mind getting my own Nightmare Moon (thanks to Past Sins fanfiction), but almost all of these pony merch. will be TRU exclusive, and I don't go there frequently... Let alone not cheep for my pocket. :(

Actually, I was wondering if perhaps, under those flower girl dresses, one or more of the three new baby "unicorns" might actually be unipegs. Since the wings could be hidden by the dresses.

This is from a different pony country, so these changes might only appear in FiM magazines/reading material. Also that looks like Little-Filly Blueblood. I still like to keep the "babies" form from the "Baby Cakes" episode. ^^; (Even as babies, Pound and Pumpkin had the most amusing expressions when Pinkie Pie sings her Piggy song~)

Is it really true that Nightmare Moon/Vinyl Scratch/Trixie/RD/PP/and the other two ponies are all going to be in one giant set together?  For $35?

Really only just want NightmareMoon/Vinyl Scratch (x2)/Trixie... but I'd still shell out the $$ for all of them if I had to.

Maybe she will be announced later on? The symbol is already made, so at least there's hope of seeing her in the future...(Just hope it's the NEAR future. ^^;; ) Maybe they'll announce that she's a winter special pony or something, like special for Target or TRU...*crosses fingers*

Maybe because I am thinking like hathorcat....and I'm wondering what happened to Minty. I hope I can get excited when they actually hit stores.

Post by: Tally Mark on February 13, 2012, 07:43:27 PM
I just about screamed with delight when I learned about these new releases.

I am SO happy to have white Celestia, though I may not get her because I really don't want the huge talking version..I want the small one. But definitely need to get Nightmare Moon, Zecora, etc etc. I'm delighted that background ponies from the show are finally becoming brushable toys! Though, I'm a bit disappointed in Vinyl Scratch--not because the glasses are decals, but because I can see from the corner eye indent that they again used a head mold with an eye shape that doesn't match the decal (i.e., like they did with Luna. Under the glasses decal Vinyl clearly has the typical slanted unicorn eye). But I can make some real glasses to put over that so I'll fix it.

And I don't know who that little orange pegasus is, but I want her.

A lot of collectors want her but i don't think she matters much to the newer fans.
At this point i hope she will still pop up as an international exclusive like Skywishes.

I think asking about Minty will result in emails like "Hasbro does not make My Little Pony mouthwash at this time."

Ohhh... after googling around I found this press release from Hasbro on a Toy Blog. Another chance to snag Applejack! And I really hope Celestia ends up being white:

MY LITTLE PONY FASHION STYLE Assortment
(HASBRO/Ages 3 & up/Approx. Retail Price $14.99/Available: Spring 12)
Dressed in pretty party capes and glamorous heels, each figure in the MY LITTLE PONY FASHION STYLE assortment is outfitted for any pony party! Girls will love combing and styling each pony’s lustrous mane. Add a pretty bow headband or candy-shaped barrettes for an extra sweet ‘do! Each of the FASHION STYLE pony friends comes complete with fancy accessories and dress-up outfits that match her personality. Girls can choose to collect and style RAINBOW DASH and PINKIE PIE this spring, and look for four additional fabulous pony friends in the fall: RARITY, APPLEJACK, FLUTTERSHY and TWILIGHT SPARKLE.

Ah ha! White celestia fashion style! Called it!

Miniatures? I wonder what on earth those could be. We already got blind bags, sculpts, brushables, and fashion style.... this is starting to get ridiculous. Hasbro just needs to pick one scale size.

Yeah, we don't want it to be like Lalaloopsy, regular lalaloopsy, then mini lalaloopsy, then just when you think they were small as it was, they introduced lalaloopsy Micros. @,@;

That yellow unicorn, I'm not sure if she's Lemon Hearts or not.  Her symbol looks more like gems than hearts.
I think the camera was just too far away to easily see the indentations in the hearts.  Still, it does look a little off, in that the hearts are supposed to be swirling around each other, not arranged into a perfectly neat triangle.  It would be strange if the blind-bag toy got that right but not the regular size.

It doesn't say which Celesita is getting made for that. It could be the pink Celestia.

They look like gems to me. I don't really think she is supposed to be the blind bag Lemon Hearts. I just noticed her eyes are not the right color for her either.

I'm wondering if the "miniature collection" might be the blind bags packaged like this ???

Could she be Upper Crust (the snotty knotted-sweater-wearing unicorn from "Sweet & Elite")?

Pretty obscure, but that's all I can come up with from the show.

Upper Crust's hair is kind of purpley for that. Somebody suggested Sapphire Shores as well  :shocked: I can't wait untill we have some confirmed names! On her, that new peg and those flower fillies! I wonder if anyone asked? Would they have decided yet?
