Disapointed in DJ pony
« on: November 19, 2012, 12:33:38 PM »
Soooo I got DJ pony in finally and I must say... MAJOR disappointment on how Hasbro handled her Shades. I know there was a big thing about her shades when she first showed up and I knew what to expect for the most part... but seriously? A simple solution for them would have been to -angle- the shades to cover the eyes.

Other than that, she's a fine pony and my first one with the raised leg that isn't a glimmerwing

I think they should of made them removable, so her eyes would be underneath, and that fixes the line problem.

I'm sorry you're disappointed with you're pony, that's always sad times. Buuttt....I haven't heard of the problem? Probably due to being in the UK and relatively new on the forum.

What is up with the shades/eyes? Or does someone have a picture?

Thanks ^_^

her shades aren't sitting where the eyes should be on the mould. So you can see where her eyes should be, but there's nothing there, and her shades are further forward.

It would probably be too difficult to make removable ones. Besides, bronies got mad when her eyes were purple in the show instead of red in the fandom, so who knows what would have happened.

The custom that I made is all wrong! D'oh!

I too was annoyed when I realized that Hasbro had simply stamped her shades over a standard Rarity face mold.  If you don't look at it up close, then it's not really noticeable.  Still, it would have been nicer if Hasbro had put just a tad bit of effort into her.

I really wasn't too bothered by it myself. It seems typical of toy companies to skimp on the gift sets. (I've seen it many times in wrestling action figures as well)

Sometimes the plastic used will be different or details will be omitted, or they just plain cut corners.

I still can hope for a regular Lemony Gem and DJ Pon-3...I don't dig the sparkly cutie marks.

I still say if they angled the shades more it would have worked just fine ;)
