G3 "Retro" ponies on Target website

[Taffeta]

Maybe people DO love pinkie pie after all...

(Not me tho!!!)



G5... Nothing but Pinkie Pie.

Shh! You'll doom us! 

No. It will be Pinkie Pie and her crew.

Greenie Pie
Bluey Pie
Goldie Pie
Reddy Pie

And probably, at this rate, Pewdie Pie as well.

Can they all power up and pilot a giant Trojan horse Mecha in the form of our beloved Pinkie Pie?

I am soooooo confused by this release. And I hope it doesn't mean that BF are done with retro G1

You'll be able to tell them apart by their "height lights".

That is beyond bizarre...    G3 can't be retro!?! How old am I?     Feels like I just purchased these girls new... not sure if I need to do so again...

This. Just... this. How can a toy I liked as a tween already be “retro”!? I’m only 27! Is G3 really old? AM I OLD!?

I’m both horrified and extremely sad.

My dearest hope is that they sell like hotcakes though, and Hasbro decides to make G5 reminiscent of G3 or G1. I like G4. Honest. I liked 3.5, too. ...But I’m getting really tired of stylized, chibi ponies with giant, round heads, massive hooves, and microscopic muzzles.

TheBeatlesPkmnFan42, thank you!!!!!!

Haha, "retro" - classic, sure, but retro? C'mon, they're not that old yet! ..r-right?

Okay but nitpicking aside - wow, these came out of nowhere! I wonder who made them.. and if there'll be more... and... eeeeeeeeeeeEEEE APPLEJACK!!! When I saw the first post I was half-worried they'd be G3 versions of the G4 designs (although I guess that would've been cool too), I'm so glad it's the proper G3 counterparts. I love G3 AJ ^_^

Still, how weird! I wonder if they'll make any more. I wouldn't say no to a new Minty And yessss G2 retros next please!!!

[skywlshes]

i wonder when they'll be on sale though 

[Harmonie]

The thing that makes me wonder about this is that they're only (as of now) rereleasing G3 counterparts of the G4 mane 6. Of course, it could easily be that those are just the first ones they chose to release, but it is a little odd to me. I hope they branch out.

How do you think I feel? I collected G3's as an adult and now... I'm still an adult but they are retro!? 

This is really weird. (Is it also weird that there's absolutely no picture of the packaging on the site? Or is that normal for some pre-released toys?)

It's just odd that they look EXACTLY like the G3's I already own. Like they could be leftovers that some Chinese worker found in a closet in the factory, stashed there 15 years ago. Even the Basic Fun G1's have ways to tell them apart from the original G1 releases, don't they? Slightly different colors, etc.?

The whole thing just feels like a joke. Here's a picture of a 'retro' pony that was sold less than 15 years ago with no picture of packaging and could very well be a photo of one of the original released toy, it's so similar.

I mean, I'm not saying it's a joke, it's just so WEIRD. And we don't even know which company is putting it out...
