:yucky: She doesn't look like a pony to me and her face looks off. I think the Muffin pony was the only cute one of the WLF ponies. How much are these figures?

I admit, i actually think future Twilight looked cool and ordered her.
The face on that one is already a bit wierd but...this one looks worse in my opinion.
Will have to see the full picture before making a final judgement.

Congratulations Violet!

That 3D model is actually pretty good.  I hope being that is only a prototype. WLF will have a better picture come today, but I don't see why they'd use a prototype pic for something they're going to advertise to sell...

I can live with the face being off a little, but I really do hope they have the stars on her hat/cape. 

As for the Funko figures - they are nice, but the fact she has no tail kind of kills that.  I can see why on the solid color one, but the glitter one just makes me cringe...  Guess her magically disappearing act backfired on her XD

I won the puzzle giveaway for the apparently one-of-a-kind prototype of this figure :) looking forward to getting her in a week or so. I assume the lack of stars is from that being the prototype, but I could be wrong! (And I don't think WLF has much to worry about from the Funko figures... Funko just makes everyone stand on all four hooves looking forwards, and their Trixie doesn't even have a tail!)

Here's the original 3D model that the figure is based on, so you can get a sense of how she looks from other angles, at least digitally.

I really like how she looks in that link on DA, much nicer than the other figures released thus far. Not really sure what all the hate is on this figure from other people, especially from the Funko worshippers lol.
 
Congrats on winning that prototype :)

Having pretty passionately hated the Future Twilight, I do like this one a little better it seems more appropriate somehow but its maybe a little too humanised for me [although certainly not overly done].

I dont like Funkos static boring poses, I dont like WLFs need to put all ponies upright on 2 legs and acting human-ish. Just a nice middle ground would work. Can someone do PONY POSES - think G1 or G3 - so far the winner for me on dynamic pony poses and vinyl figures is McDs :P And that should simply not be true!

Also - congrats Violet! Thats a pretty cool prize to win!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

That 3D-model looks awesome, but that WLF figure picture looks just awful. Not worth paying $40+ for me (if it's the same price as that Future Twilight figure).

Yea I agree the 3D model looks good, with the lights, and her face and hair look so much better, the WLF version looks ugly.. :/ def not worth $40 thats for sure, that's another thing I don't like about these figures besides their appearance, is their price way too expensive! The Funko ponies are larger and at least reasonable priced, and more easily available(in the US)

So for those that didn't like the human/anthro Twilight, WeLoveFine just announced a new vinyl figure - Trixie

Uh, isn't Trixie also in a human/anthro pose?  ^^;


You gotta hand it to WLF, they are in fact marketing geniuses. First let fans take care of all the inspiration and actual artwork, which also takes care of their survey phase of marketing because they already know which charas/pics are popular based on the popularity of the fanart on DA. Then slap those pics on some T-shirts or make figures from them and the fans GO CRAZY for it.
Thank you Thimble for my amazingly cute avatar!

It's better thank future Twi, but I don't want her. Muffins was the only one so far that I've thought was very cute and not too humanized. I'm glad I'm not liking them.

Well she looks more like a pony than "Future Twilight" but she's still a fail to me. 

I support dynamic/interesting poses, but standing up like a human? When do any of the ponies do that ever in the show?  Why would anyone want this?

Once again-  I am relieved because it means I won't be tempted to throw money at WLF who is a company I no longer wish to support.

I completely agree with all of this. A little better than Future Twi, but still a miss.

Why would anyone want this?

Cause seeing different interpretations of a character can be fun? I mean, haven't we seen like a million crossover pony customs?
Same thing about her standing on her hind legs. Tales and G3 did it...the concept never bothered me.

Well there I go.   I guess despite these examples-  the WLF toy just doesn't look like a pony to me.   But it looks like this may be the look people are going for these days- (alas for me)
