Ah OK, it just gets me annoyed a bit when people ship here and there about nothing. Sorry about that.

Other than that, the box is pretty and unique. It looks like something from a tea set... a cheap teaset with cardboard. XD

I don't see any shipping here at all, really. Generally, you'll find users here tend to be older and more mature then other pony related websites. Well, as mature as one can be about pretty pink ponies that is!

The box seems so dark and enclosed. I liked being able to see the scenery cardboard I hope this doesn't become the new standard.

If the set was with Princess Celestia and two newly designed ponies (Blind Bag released Ponies are a great source of options *Hint hint Hasbro*)

YES!   They should have included Tea Love and another brushable version of one of the blind bag ponies.

Tea Love with a tea set. That would have been awsome. You can still sort of do it, Hasbro. You can put Tea Love out as a single and include the tea pot and a teacup as her included knicknack. DO EET.

Believe me, the stuff fans come up with is better than most of Hasbro's "real" 80s ships.

Heart Throb + (human) Prince Charming!

Wigwam + . . . a corn dolly  (in the comics)

Quarterback + . . . an elf!

The elf's big appeal, BTW, was that she could jump up and down a hundred times without stopping.  Quarterback was VERY IMPRESSED by this feat.

Somehow I can't picture Rainbow Dash at a tea party :/

I was thinking the same thing.  They picked the wrong pony to be in this set.  She looks cute and all but its way out of her character.  Rarity or anyone else would have been better for it!  Not that I want more repeats!  It obviously would have been better with new brushables!

It is a cute set though.  I love the hats too!  I may end up getting if for my daughter.

You know, I thought this was why Core 7 failed. Because they kept re-re-re-releasing the same characters over and over. Why is Hasbro making the same mistake? That's why G1, G2, and G3 were immensly more popular than Core 7. There were hundreds of different ponies to choose from.

THIS!!!!!! C'mon Hasbro pull your fingers out. Yes we are all excited for the collectors set (Zecora etc) and the castle  but I am having my doubts that either of those will appear in the UK :(

Give us more characters! Give us the mane 6 with a raised hoof here and there, tinsel and glittery symbols, 3D symbols even. But, hasbro, carry on re-releasing the same boring crap and you will kill FIM.

Hahaha random set is random. I am not in love with the idea of a scene from the show where PP and RD attend tea with Celestia. XD


Don't complain guys, they probably just have a lot of extras of these ponies and they're trying to throw together something to tide over the kids and collectors until the next new thing is ready to go. We will be seeing new stuff as well. ^.^

This set would have been a perfect opportunity to release a brushable version of Tealove. I think if they had done that, the set would sell so much better. Her colors are just gorgeous and I bet she'd make a really stunning brushable pony. Plus, we need more green ponies. I think if I were designing the set, I'd include a white Celestia (I hate how she's pink, but white on the box) Tealove and a regular pegasus version of Ploomette. I think that would be a good set.

I wonder if this is a ploy to unload the Pinklestias before the white one comes out?  Or move a bunch of things that aren't selling? (Especially if there's G3 stuff mixed in.)

This seems like definite "little girl" marketing - "Look, the pink princess is having tea with the pink and blue ponies... with hats!"

Why do RD and Pinkie get all the love from the marketing guys?  There are other, more interesting ponies out there!  I would love more varied brushables... oh well, at least we have the fancy Toys R Us set coming in the fall! :)
