Basic fun Celestial Ponies

[Dragonflitter]

I know RAMC was the first My Little Pony special and was titled My Little Pony before it was edited for MLP n Friends, but does anyone remember what year it came out? I just checked my VHS and it says 1984.  Did I hear the BF guy say it was 1983?  Not that I'd fault them for being a year off.

Do you know if your VHS was the original release or the later release that came with the Firefly toy? I remember I had the VHS tape that came with Firefly and it was a later release, I had already seen the special many times on TV before I got it.

Those blind box ponies are fantastic! I hope they do a movie themed one with Magic Star, etc. Maybe even tiny flutters

I have the original release VHS and that's dated 1984 as well.

edit: The special itself is also dated 1984:

Many G1 sets came in groups of 6. Wouldn't it be awesome if there were 6 of these!!

[Moonbreeze]

Omg, amazing! Something new that I will buy I hope these well be decently to acquire in Europe. No BF have been for sale in NL

[Taffeta]

I think there's a good chance of 4. I don't think they're going to invent 2 completely new ones for this set

@Moonbreeze, I hope so too. If Amazon somewhere picks them up, though, hopefully it will be not too bad for you guys. It sucks that the netherlands haven't been stocking them :/

The UK has been generally lucky, we have had everything and some things early/at the same time as the US, but I'm still always nervous with each set, not knowing what will come out where.

John Lewis seem to have carried the previous TE set in stores - I'm not sure where else, maybe Toymaster franchises. I haven't seen them in Smyths or Entertainer in this area, although both did carry the Glory set in the past. :/

Amazon is currently my best hope.

I saw these posted on Discord a couple days ago. I am so, so over the moon about these!!!  I'm also gonna need to get my hands on the Moondancer plush!

[Primaltimediamond]

WHOA i gotta get my hands on these!!!

They might have said it in the video and I missed it, but do we know when the blind boxes will be released? They mentioned fall 2023 for the Celestials, but I wasn't sure if the blind boxes would be the same.

Fall 2023 as well he said, targeted at 3.99

I just watched it again, I'm super impressed that a company that licenses the IP did so much homework that it knows more about the original gen than Hasbro seemingly does nowadays.
(The Glory plushy has the symbol upside down btw, that's a fun factory error)

I am surprised that Hong Kong hasn't been using the molds to pump out fakies by now...

Give em time. (I'd probably buy those fakies just saying.)

pretty much every tv series and movie released was made one year prior to being released as it takes at least one year to cut and edit before releasing it.  so he was right when saying it was made in 83

Oooh I love those Celestial Ponies. So excited for actual new gen1 ponies! I sold most of my collection and I promised myself I wouldn’t buy more ponies, but I might need to get one of these (or more, if ny daughter likes them too… ).
