Hmmm...interesting.I'll go with a Dolly Mix theory
Its one of their mini editions though - those books are quite small and in fact the size of the product is not large enough for a brushable. Big enough for a blind bag but that does not make sense with the "rooted hair" line. Perhaps its one of the Dollymix size ponies.
I haveno idea what that is but I really want to find out!
Not released until Apr. 2014, hm,
and from Running Press... aren't all the other pony books Little Brown?

Lot's of speculation on EQD saying she will be Rainbow's mom and there is a LOT of support too! Didn't see any negativity and they are mostly bronies on there, just saying I think everyone is in full support for Firefly to be her mother.
I'll stick around to see what'll happen. :popcorn:
HOLY HOLY HOLY CRAP!!!!!! Firefly!!!??! Maybe in brushable G4 version?! :dropjaw: :dropjaw: :dropjaw:
If this is a brushable G4 pony, man finally hasbro is redeeming themselves! I think if they kept creating online release only G1 ponies in G4 molds they would sell amazingly well, crosses fingers and bought one!
I realllllllly hope its a book about these two ;)

Definitely curious to see what this actually is. But I guess I'm in the minority in pretty strongly disliking the idea of the G1 characters as the parents of the G4 characters. I mean, if that's the direction they go, eh, I'll live, but I'd rather they kept the storylines separate, much as I like both.

^ So interesting. I mean, it couldn't be the exact same Firefly who sought help by flying over a rainbow to find a human instead of going to Celestia. I always wondered how she knew about humans before even meeting megan... and wasn't weirded out by Megan's horse. Humans lived in Ponyland as well. Scorpan turned into a human prince. There is a kingdom of humans somewhere in Equestria? So how could Twilight Sparkle not know about humans after all her studies? And what about Baby Firefly? Would she then be Rainbow Dash's sister? What happened to Scorpan's kingdom? Where are all the humans?
I'd really love a Firefly in G4 form. I just don't know about mixing them together like that. I always thought that G1 was kind of ancient history for G4 ponies. Is Firefly a time traveler or is there simply a Firefly in every generation? Or does she skip generations?
This is why I"m just happy to collect the toys I guess. :)
Um, so the info page said something about the book being 39 pages. Did any one else see that?
I'm not a fan of having G1 characters as the parents of the G4 characters mostly because of the actual Generation gap... The G1 time line and land is really in a completely different world from G4... I just don't see how the two would fit at all =/Definitely curious to see what this actually is.

I am actually with you. The cartoons are secondary to me in comparison to the toys and in some ways while I would love to see a G4 toy version of Firefly [just because of the G1 flashback] I am not necessarily a massive fan of tying the generations up in this way. It feels a little forced sometimes.

*Shrugs* I guess I don't see how this is any different than having Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash in both G3 and G4. Same character designs, different reality.
Plus, we already have G4 Applejack and no one is trying to suggest that she is the same Applejack who traveled with Megan to Midnight Castle.

these books are the little pocket sized books, you know, like the mini 'grow a bonsai' books? they are only about 3 inches square, so 39 pages isn't *really* a very big book.

If that is the case, then the Firefly figure should probably be really small too. Maybe it will be small enough to be considered a new born by g4 standards.
Hmm... maybe they're planning on releasing Rescue at Midnight Castle as a dvd on its own, and this book is a kids picture book with screenshots as illustrations? I see that a lot, picture books with screenshots from a popular movie, etc.OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Still waiting for the picture on this one, which we likely won't see until after January 1. I've been dying to see if the book is Firefly's Adventure!

Well it DOES say MINI pony... Which I was under the impression was the 'official' name of the blind bags ponies... that's the title of the 'mini ponies collector's guide' right?
When this first popped up all I could see was a bb with burshable hair haha. That would be rad though lol. Hopefully they mix it up and make it G4 at least...? It would be so cool to get a G4 firefly.
I'm thinking Dollymix Firefly.

When you pre-order do they take the money right then and there? Or when the item is in stock and shipped?They take the money when they ship the item, and they charge you the cheapest price that was on the item before it gets shipped to you. Meaning: if the price drops to, say, $6 sometime before April, I will save 29 cents. Likewise if the price increases to $20 I will still only pay $6.29. :)
yes , it is correct , I pre ordered the season 1 DVD and the price dropped and I got it for less than when I ordered it ,pretty cool :)When you pre-order do they take the money right then and there?

This is one of those little book/kit sets that you find near the registers at bookstores and other places. You know like there's a mini bonsai (http://www.amazon.com/The-Mini-Bonsai-Running-Press/dp/0762409746/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1382388758&sr=8-1&keywords=mini+bonsai+kit) one, and a sushi thing, and a sand garden. Running Press makes a ton of them.
Sooo yeah, my guess is still dollymix or similar. That listing image just has a picture of G1 firefly photoshopped onto it. Now I guess it's possible that they could reproduce a mini in that pose, but that product image is just a photo of G1 firefly scaled down to the size of the box (which is 1.8 x 2.8 x 3.2 inches.)
That said, I'll still preorder. It will be a cool item to have no matter what ^_^
haha i ordered 2 as well, one to open one to keep MIB :)Hey! That is exactly why I ordered two XD

I'm glad it isn't a G4 model. Nothing against G4 models as I own two but I also own some G1's and to me those seem to be the better quality.
It's curious though as to what the figure actually is because what I do know G1 models aren't exactly...well "mini". :what:
Yep, I definitely have my fingers crossed for something totally new too. :biggrin:I'm glad it isn't a G4 model. Nothing against G4 models as I own two but I also own some G1's and to me those seem to be the better quality.

That is curious. I hope it isn't just a repro of Firefly-- I'd much rather have something totally new! I assume it'll be close to the G1 style, since that's what's pictured on the box.

If that turns out to be the case I know what I'm getting instead.
Running press makes little kit/book boxes, they are sold in bookstores. They do things like desktop gargoyle, and cat butt stickers, etc. This is obviously a prototype image and I expect the real thing to be the dollymix firefly, like everyone else has said.I wouldn't mind if it was a dollymix pony, I like those ponies XD
I'd put money on her being the repro mold they used for the Starshine and Skydancer repros. I'm most excited about the story!
Why does everyone think this can't possibly be a mini G1, that the pic has to be photoshop. :/ I hope the picture is exactly what we get. :) Really looking forward to this!I don't see how someone would think it's photoshopped unless they did a really good job with shadows

You know now that I look at it (and I hate looking a Jpgs because of the quality of the image) it does kind of look like the book is sitting on top of the shadow for Firefly, and your right about the edges of the pony..

I actually think it is Photoshopped; there is just something not quite right with the image especially around the edges of Firefly.
Exactly :) This image is definitely photoshopped. It's not difficult to paste an image on and create matching shadows, but the clean cut edges and the difference in image quality give this one away.You know now that I look at it (and I hate looking a Jpgs because of the quality of the image) it does kind of look like the book is sitting on top of the shadow for Firefly, and your right about the edges of the pony..

G1 ponies are my favorite ponies. :) When I first saw the picture I thought someone just put a picture of G1 Firefly next to the box/book and just put the two images together. The Firefly in the picture just looks too much like a real G1 Firefly to me to be a picture of the Firefly that comes with the book.

apparently you can pre-order from walmart too!interesting! However, I might have to wait for them to actually show up in stores if they do.. I did pre-order 3 from Amazon though

I'm just thinking of the fact that the hair (I mean the single strands of hair) should be gossamer to obtain that look on a "mini pony".
It just occured to me that the "mini" pony could mean something like Dolly Mix ponies. I don't think standard sized figures were ever refered to as "mini" before, so I don't think we're getting a full sized pony.
Here's the Dolly Mix Firefly:

Just because the product size says one thing doesn't mean she will be mini, they could be referring to just the book.

Ehhh...I don't think so. The description says "mini Pony....mini brush...mini book" Unless the description is just flat-out wrong, I think we're getting a mini pony ;) But it all depends on their definition of 'mini' too. The G4's look mini compared to the G3's, in my opinion!

I doubt they would be just referring to the book, it is usually the size of the product as shipped. There are also other mini boxes published by Running Press, they are not big. The size of the box (1.8 x 2.8 x 3.2 inches) means that the pony will probably be about 3" high.
Although the pony in the picture appears to be an actual G1 Firefly, I still have hopes that it will be a mini version of the G1 Firefly mould. I can't imagine the quality to be as good as a full size pony, but I would still be happy! :)
same image, so maybe it really *is* a firefly G1 rerelease?!
mini pony, little pony...not really much difference, haha, if you think about it!
Looks like her price went up if I am seeing that right?

LOL!!! :like:Agree!
Wow- well Amazon doesn't usually post pictures of stuff that isn't actually available- so maybe I am now cautiously optimistic! (also glad I pre-ordered before the price hike, heh)same here
All the people worrying about it being a dollymix - I highly doubt this would be the case. Dollymix ponies were made for a small, UK company (Teeny?) while these Fireflys (Fireflies?) are being made for Running Press which is a larger, US company.Actually I'd be happy if it was a dolly mix, but I know it's not XD My worse fear is that it will be something like a blind bag pony but we will see
I am not expecting the same quality standard as a G1 pony - especially as it is small - but I am hoping the it is a miniature replica of G1 Firefly with a miniature version of her brush (like the picture and description implies). The pony will probably be 2.5"-3" high.

btw what are the different shipping dates for the different places that is selling this? I know Amazon's April 22

I'm 99% sure it will be G1 style - the artwork is G1 retro and it wouldn't make sense to release the figure in a different gen style. Plus she will have brushable hair so not like a blind bag.
The release date on Amazon UK is 8th May (atm).
I just tell myself there's some suit in Hasbro who hates My Little Pony and gnashes their teeth at their inability to destroy the brand.

It seems to be for real! (http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,340742.0.html) It's been on Amazon since September. Nobody knows what it will look like--the toy, at least, there are scans of the book buried in that thread somewhere--but it's only around a month out at this point, so it can't stay secret forever. There's been absolutely no sign of anything Firefly related from any of the usual Chinese sources.These are not being made for Hasbro, but one of their third party licensees, so the typical Chinese companies might not be making it.
not sure if i can post the link to it or not, but on walmart.com they have a firefly with a book set for pre-order and it looks like the 80's version.

That is cheaper then Amazon, what was the original price when it was first on pre-order?maybe cheaper but I don't trust walmart to ship when it's supposed to XD

I'm so torn! Do I order or do I wait? If I order will it just be a Dollymix Firefly? Or will it be something different? Or a cardboard cutout or something? But if I wait and they are awesome I won't get one as they will have sold out....I doubt it will be a dollymix or a cut out because it does mention the package comes with a brush I believe and DMs are overseas only
Honestly I can't remember if I still have this on order, or if I cancelled it once I saw the images, I wanted a G4 Firefly... anyways... Spoiler ahead on new episodeSpoilerGeneral Firefly OMG how awesome for the G1 fans!
I doubt it will be a dollymix or a cut out because it does mention the package comes with a brush I believe and DMs are overseas only
Does anyone know if this will be sold in stores? I don't purchase stuff online so I will only buy if she is found in a store.Who knows really
Tempted to order but too cheap to risk it! Fingers crossed the mystery is revealed soon, because I'd love to see details before I commit.
Depending on what this pony is, it could go one of two ways for Amazon lol XD

I just want to see what it looks like! I feel like the sizes were off on the box I have a feeling its a regular sized G1 maybe?? Mini same mold G1 sounds strange I dunno maybe though??
Bringing popcorn to wait for pics....
Mine should be here tomorrow. Stupid fedex turned my package over to the postal service. I've about had it with prime second day doing that.UPS and Fedex will do that if they have an over load of deliveries... often times though they -share- the same facilities as USPS.. Fedex Smartpost being a shared I believe... I've had it happen many times but our post office is pretty reliable so I don't worry about it... It's fedex I don't like because they tend to make weird route jumps that in the past bypassed us at least once in route despite being already so close... I haven't had many things delivered by fedex recently so I can't really say if they still do that.
Uhhh I'm glad I didn't order it.
I think it's ugly and it also look like a cheap fakie :blink:
*sorry if anyone else likes it but I don't* :blush:
erm, not what I was expecting :blink: but id love to see her out the bag, would someone mind taking a pic of the inside of the book? Id love to see the illustrations :)I'll take photos of mine when I get it XD
I think she's adorable, personally! I'm surprised so many people seem to dislike her. I can't wait to get mine now :D.Most people sadly don't like things that look too much like a fakie.. I like fakies to a certain degree and I'm willing to give this pony a chance.. though when I get her I'll probably still give a slight review on the product on Amazon

I think what kills me wth the fedex bit is that the fedex hub is 10 minutes from my house. Now I have to wait 2 extra days for the post office to sort it. Not fun.
I'm looking at SoSilver's picture and I'm looking at the one on Amazon and that picture is NOT representative of what SoSilver got. The one on Amazon looks like an original G1 (height, head size and leg width), and the one SoSilver got looks like a fakies you see on the horse aisles in stores.
This reminds me of the ceramic pony "scandal" of the early 2000s. Anyone else remember that? Hamilton collections sent out these flyers in newspapers of these gorgeous MLP ceramic figurines they were going to make in a series...what we actually got were these hideously ugly acrylic ponies that looked nothing like what they'd previously advertised. They must have gotten enough complaints because they never released any after the second one.
I'm glad for the people that like what's come out, but honestly, to me, it looks like Little Brown took the easiest route out and went with a fakie and slapped Firefly's symbol on it.

I'm not going to cancel my order. I'm hoping if Hasbro sees that there is a demand for G1, they might make more of them...
I think she is downright hideous! I'm not totally sure but she really could just be a fakie, I don't see anything about Hasbro involvement on the Amazon page. Running press just might have had licensing or something to use the MLP logo and Firefly's design and to me that would put her in the fakie category. So u less her feet are stamped with Hasbro, she's not a real MLP to me. I am glad most people that ordered her like her though, I'd feel bad if everyone was super disappointed with their purchases. Glad I did not buy one though.
I edited it to see what it would look like with her head smaller, and yeah, it definitely would help some I think.

She's about what I would have expected to be honest, though I agree on the head.
Book seems to really be stock images, but still nice. However, did notice that in the original packaging art (US - ours was dfferent here), they managed to include a set of ponies that were never actually produced!
Looks like I got mine today too!

Poor ugly thing.
Btw, yes, she is stamped Hasbro 2014!
And the booklet is meh. It's a bunch of the retro designs they've been putting on everything, then they have some pages of the original box art that we've seen a lot of.
In the beginning of the booklet it says, "Celebrate the timeless My Little Pony adventure and cheer with classic ponies Firefly, Starshine, Snuzzle, and Glory. Full of charm, each one will bring you back to an enchanted time full of sunshine and rainbows. For every young girl at heart, the world of My Little Pony awaits you. Let Firefly and her friends remind you that dreams can come true!"
It then has a page to each of the named ponies in retro style. I wonder if they considered making all of them?
Here are a couple of the old problem threads about them

Well I must say I am dissapointed in Firefly's design. The book is cute. IF they make Starshine or Glory (which the booklet gives the indication of) I would consider buying. otherwise I just want the book and only for the pics..same here , as soon as I saw the pics, I cancelled my order .
Whic brings up thiis question: I do not recall seeing anything about a unproduced set of ponies. Can someone direct me to where I can learn more about them?
lots of people over on FB are throwing a fit, what do they expect xD I plan on customizing at least 2 of the 3 unless my friend wants one of them

She needs to take a trip back to the amazon and get that head shrunk a little more ;p
I actually feel kind of bad for the person/people involved in the design process. I just keep thinking though, surely with 3D scanning/printing technology that something more accurate (even in a small size) could have been done.I don't even think they do 3d printing for even designing 100%... more like rapid prototyping which involves other materials like wax or clay...

you know... I wonder if it is possible to shrink the head XD

Meh, she looks about the way I was expecting. I'm not fond of the rooted tail but for $10, I wasn't expecting much.
She's sort of endearing in an odd way. :)
Lol I might buy more depending on things.

Agree on the head beeing to big and the legs too short :(*glances over at some of the G4 proportions* >.>;;
I... I kind of love her. And I have one en route to my house.
I will call her Donkey Sparkles.
I think she's a thousand times better than the sad sad Collector Pony repros. Much higher quality.
This thread is now so brony-esque...I don't understand what you mean. :x

Really? I didn't know the Collector Pony reproductions were low quality. Are you referring to the 25th Anniversary Ponies? I remember seeing them in stores and thinking they looked well-done. Of course, maybe I would have thought different if I'd bought them and taken them out of the boxes....
I hope she sells well or she'll probably be the last G1 product we'll ever see. Personally, I love her. Yes, her head is large compared to G1 Firefly, but she is definitely based on the same mold. She has the boot foot even! AND she's the first pony in who knows how long to have symbols on BOTH SIDES, hallelujah.
She even has a little mini version of her proper brush. I can get people not liking her, but research and effort WAS put into her, whether you like the results of that effort or not.

I think it was kind of an superfluous comment.Exactly, we are here to share opinions and what we like or don't :)
Ppl should be allowed to say if they don't like what producer (who ever they are) throw on the market.
Should we all keep silent when we dislike something... ? >_<
Also I personally don't convict anyone who likes that pony so why just let it just go?
Different ppl different opinions that's how the world works.... =)
*just my two cents*

Yeah, my concern over all the cancelled orders is not that Hasbro and its licenses will think "we should do a better job!", but that there is no market for retro ponies. From what I understand, that's exactly what happened with the last retro collection.

Heads up. When I go there my Avast A/V gives me a malicious URL warning. Must be from an ad or something.
How about we forget moaning about other people moaning and just moan [or not] about the product?I think I'm actually going to stop looking at this thread XD mostly because I'm seeing double bouts of moaning xD I think I've seen at least a dozen or more say she's flat out ugly just by looking at the photos (photos are not very flattering for anyone really XD)
Come on guys...people are allowed to be elated or disappointed.
aw thats sad they are so negative :( i really dont think shes that bad.. i mean look at the size and they really did attempt to make a teeny new sculpt of an actual old sculpt. plus that little book is adorable! the price certainly seems high to me, but such is life lol. maybe ill just go leave a nice review :P i want more retro stuff here in the us! would have died if we got that pretty UK mug that got released. adorable.I'll probably give a nice review too, Like I said I have to see mine first XD
To be honest it seems immature to see everyone complaining because they preordered and are disappointed what they're getting. Everyone in the tens of pages of this thread admitted that they had no idea what the actual product was going to look like and were essentially taking an exciting gamble. That's a reason to, you know, wait until you know what the product looks like.
I think the pony's cute enough, I've got Prime so I'll order one of these if they don't crop up at Barnes & Noble. But, I didn't preorder it because I didn't know if I was going to like it. It's nice to see G1 on the market - the face is funky but some real G1s had funky faces, I don't love them for their glamor. I hope they make the other ones in the booklet, I'd get them too.
I think returning purchases at the expense of the company will ensure that they don't manufacture the rest.
I don't think it's fair that they abuse of the collectors. If they had the pony, they should have shown it. But they created expectations, and maybe many of you didn't expect a mini G1 version of the original Firefly, but I'm sure others did. And that, is a dissatisfied constumer. If they aren't going to release G1s, then don't. But don't try and sell me those... ponies as if they were retro.
Do the t-shirts, bags, cups, coaster... whatever with the retro art. That doesn't cost them much production money.
To be honest it seems immature to see everyone complaining because they preordered and are disappointed what they're getting.There's absolutely nothing wrong with taking a chance, paying for something, and then being disappointed with what you got. And anyway, you do realize not everyone complaining here preordered, right? I didn't because I wanted to wait to see what it actually was, and I was hoping for something I would like more. But it's not, and so I'm disappointed as well because I likely would have bought it otherwise.

If you like it, that's great; I'm glad there are people who are happy with it. But there's nothing wrong with not being happy with it, preordered or not.
That's what makes this so difficult for me. Buying it would show that yes, people want more G1 stuff, but I don't want more G1 stuff that's poor quality, and I don't see any reason to think buying things like this won't just encourage Hasbro to continue doing things like this instead of produce nicer things.

But just to be clear- it's NOT Hasbro- it's just some random company (Perseus Books Group) that bought a license from Hasbro to use the MLP name/images to sell its product. Hasbro could care less at this point how successful the product is- they already made their money from their licensee.
If Perseus doesn't make enough money from this set, they probably won't make the other ponies, and will focus on their numerous other little book/product combos like:

The fact that Perseus is not Hasbro and is not generally in the business of making toys- probably explains the clumsiness of the figure produced. Poor things.

The figures are stamped Hasbro though, aren't they? Or does that not matter?
They were awful. (IMO). Nasty hard plastic, thin cheap hair, thin manes and SUPER thin tails. They also have a tendency to fall forward onto their faces because the real flat-footed Collector ponies were sort of weight back by their tails . . .
Then to top it off half of them had the wrong colors. I mean, yes, Blossom was purple, but not that shade of purple and Cotton Candy didn't have dark pink hair.
I think their symbols must rub off easily too, because I keep seeing them at the thrift store with parts of their rumps blank?
Their plastic quality and hair quality / quantity were what bothered me the most, though.

Back on topic - With most other pony releases, we have a fair idea of who is going to appear as they appear on Taobao. This Firefly didn't appear on Taobao or on any of the other sites as far as I'm aware...does this mean she wasn't produced in that part of Asia? Maybe somewhere else? Just fishing for the next release (if any) and also maybe...someone to contact about how the design is OK but how it could be so much better.

No. It just means she was never sold as excess, unrequired or damaged stock to third party sellers. Not every factory or every factory manager or every production line ends up on Taobao so unfortunately its not indication. For a cheap plastic toy, I would be surprised if she was manufactured anywhere other than China, Taiwan, India, Bangladesh or similar.

I wish they had licensed Funko for this... they would have at least made the mold correctly. :( The Funko vinyls have minor issues but it's sure not "this pony looks like a fakie with encephalitis".But she'd have been standing upright with all four hooves placed evenly apart, staring directly ahead with eyes half closed.
I keep thinking about this weird little gal; I can't wait for mine to arrive - wonderfully cugly (cute but ugly :P ) little thing :biggrin:
I wish they had licensed Funko for this... they would have at least made the mold correctly. :( The Funko vinyls have minor issues but it's sure not "this pony looks like a fakie with encephalitis".I wouldn't really want a funko... Has funko even done a Retro mlp with brushable hair yet? I think that is what they wanted to keep in mind as well when making a mini of the original Firefly =/
I am sad because I was looking forward to hunting them down in stores and buying them to show Hasbro how we want more G1... but not when the barest effort was made towards quality.Ehhh, I'm happy that it's at least a squishy plastic pony instead of hard vinyl...

If it helps- because she's so little- she's a bit cuter in person than the large blown-up pictures of her suggest-i would love to see her next to a dolly mix pony, she looks like she would be just slightly bigger
I'd guess the pony used on that promo pic is an early prototype and then for one reason or more than likely, because of bunch of reasons, the final production version didn't come out as good as the prototype, which is very common thing to happen in toy industry.
Small edit:
I just took a look of the listing on Amazon and they have now changed/updated the pic to reflect the actual product on sale.
I don't think that picture was a prototype. I think that was the original concept and that the pony pictured there was a real g1 firefly and brush that they Photoshopped into the picture. They clearly made no attempt to actually make a faithful miniature firefly. And the picture that they gave to stores and websites for the preorder should have reflected the actual product from the very beginning.

I totally agree. I think if they wanted to make a photoshopped prototype picture to give stores an idea of what the final product would look like that's one thing, but when Amazon posted that as a product picture they gave the impression that the final product would be similar to what was shown. It was very misleading. If they didn't have an actual picture of the product they should have simply refrained from posting a picture.
Hi everyone!
I just got them at my parents home!

I'm STILL so bummed about this... it could have been awesome. They could have had a sold-out product! Tell me, what would have been so difficult to buy a cheap $1 baity Firefly from Ebay, (it didn't even need symbols or hair!), transfer the measurements into a 3D software program, and properly create a G1 repro?
Seriously, the lack of regard for the collectors' demographic that would be buying this product has turned me off from ever purchasing one.
I think her face looks a lot like a dollymix pony- anyone have a picture of them together?I don't have Dolly Mix firefly but I do have two other DMs I can hold up with her
The box for my pony actually shows the pony that is inside- so that is good if they are going to sell these in stores. I will admit I had this teeny tiny hope for an exact mini replica of G1 Firefly, but I think we all knew THAT wasn't going to happen since they were using stock photos...
If it helps- because she's so little- she's a bit cuter in person than the large blown-up pictures of her suggest-I totally agree. I think she's cute in person and I really don't notice her weird proportions as much. She'll look nice with my dollymixes :)
