Filly Princess

Question, are the ones with the jewels actually rare, or is it just marketing?

I believe how it works is that there's X molds, each with 5 colored variants. The crystal princess (or whatever her name is) is just that one color and one mold, so there's not that many. Or it's just they don't make a lot of them, compared to the rarity of holofoil cards to normal cards.

They need to make sure they keep prices down, since having a Swarovski crystal in her crown will make her more expensive than the others.

I hadn't heard of these before today and so I just picked one up for fun (someone had stuffed them into the EMPTY FiM card box) and I thought they were rather cute! I think I got Sir Glory? I love flocking so I might have to get a couple more now.

I like Fillys! They are technically "fakies" I suppose in so much as they are copying the concept of "colourful toy ponies" from Hasbro but for me they are now an established enough line that they are really an entity in their own rights.

The company that makes Fillies is well know for knocking off other toylines (Sylvanian Families, Barbie, Monster High, MLP)... So I think 'fakies' is an ok term to use for them. ;>

I love Filly Princess! I need to get more of them.

I have a bunch of BB Filly Princess still kicking around... I use them in swaps and trades!    I opened two only and I was very lucky to get a boy and a girl pony.  I don't dare disturb the balance of the Filly Force.... :-p

They have blind bags for these all over here in my town! I always wondered what they were because I've never seen the actual toys. Just the blind bags!

Oh I really want a mom and baby set. Did someone say they are not in the us?

Obviously they are because I found them.  Check obscure toy and games stores.  I found them at a mall game store called Go! Games.

I have 3 of them, and I think they're cute.  Although since I've been reading Game of Thrones, with all of these ponies being some sort of royalty or nobilities, I've started calling them "game of thronies" ponies. :3

And they feature on the US Filly Princess site so hopefully you ll manage to track a local stockist

They're super cute, I've gotten a few of the blind bags just for lolz.

Thanks!  I keep finding the single sets.  Maybe I will find a mom and baby if I keep looking.

The mom and baby are too adorable! I have only seen singles so far.
