New 35th Anniversary Collector Ponies Spotted! Pics!

[Haruna]

Sorry for short notice, but the people at one Target told me there are 8 of these guys at the Target I'm headed to next. Any requests? Speak now or forever hold your peace, lol, so I can buy a particular one you're looking for. If you want one let me know soon, and just pay me what I paid plus shipping to your country.

Edit: I finally found the elusive Cotton Candy, yay. I think just like in the 1980s she's the first one people buy so I haven't seen many of her. Anyway, my offer of picking up any of these guys for anyone who needs one still stands. There were some left behind at the Target I went to and the employees looked up other Targets and there were more. If you want one just pay me what I paid and then shipping, no more than that

So glad to know Targets are already stocking! That was fast.

Sad to hear the rainbow ponies are currently UK only >.<

[Einhornbaby]

UK only? Ive read Europe, where did you get the "UK only" info, cant find it. o.0

[Dreamer]

I know one of the biggest toy release windows is Christmas, are there any others? I recall summer because it's the time to play outside on holidays. At least I used to notice way more toy ads when summer holidays were coming.

It's Europe, not UK only. In fact, the only confirmed country atm who has the rainbow ponies on pre-order is Sweden. ^^

Apparently UK is a catchall term for Europe when it comes to ponies. I mean, how often do we see European release ponies tagged as UK...Do wish people wouldn't do that though, as if we weren't all separate countries...

Sigh. Don't panic, Einhornbaby. It's still Europe.

[Einhornbaby]

I felt it while writing it... people often mix UK / EUR.

They do, no idea why O.o. You'd think it's be the other way around...though I guess it is confusing because the UK is in Europe and yet we tend to refer to the UK and Europe...and yeah Geography huh O.O.

In any case, Europe appears to mean Europe in this case but we haven't had a specific confirmation list of countries...

WHOOPS WRONG THREAD

[Taffeta]

This is your weekly (?) reminder to email me a photo of your letter at [email protected] to get an entry in the giveaway.   

(Exceptions being Taffeta, KarenTheUnicorn, and LadyPinwheel whose entries I marked down before going "OMG this is getting too complicated, email only from now on", lol.)

Especially important because I just got an ADORABLE pony pin of Princess Tiffany /  Princess Pearl and I'd like to sneak in a giveaway for it before I go away on vacation (in February).    Like, I might draw a name for it this weekend.

(Pic is from Studio BMFC storefront.)

Someone...made a Pearl pin? As well as a Fizzy pin? Is this the same people? O.O. (Unashamedly off topic).

[LadyMoondancer]

Shoot, I put this in the wrong thread.  Please pardon me while I move it, LOL.

But yes, they did!  Unfortunately sold out on their storefront, though.  (Maybe they will make more?)

She is really gorgeous. <3

I’m missing Blossom but I’m really short on extra funds right now.

I went to Target today and they STILL didn't have any ponies on the end cap, so I finally did ask them if they had any.  Turns out they had two full sets in the back!  I only got Snuzzle and Blossom today, because I don't have the real toys of those two.  The quality looks great on them!  I hope they've put the rest of their retros on the end cap by the time I go back, LOL.  (I will say the associate who went looking for them was super helpful.)

[Ponyfan]

Congrats LadyMoondancer.

i got mine... well arrived from the states last week, yay so fast, they are amazing, well made. only cotton candy and butterscotch are really different in colour to the 25th Anni's. the rest are very simular colouring. all are very different to the original (Hong Kong made).
i was lucky to be able to trade for them.
im really wanting to do comparison photos but im guessing loads of peeps out there have done that already.
anyways the 25th Anni's aren't that badly made, its just the fact they are hasbro made and these 35th ones arent and they are so much better made. if hasbro were to ever do more retro releases in the future they really need to improve their quility to match The Bridge Direct's versions.
