Post by: Malicieuse on August 07, 2012, 11:27:13 AM: Neat. Since they are "re-colors" i'm guessing they will be blindbag ponies. Though there seems to be enough unreleased ponies now for 3 new blindbag waves...

Post by: hathorcat on August 07, 2012, 11:35:05 AM: I spotted those earlier - they are super cute! :)

I was wondering if the poor quality of the paint is because they are first batch stuff - the symbols are almost hand done in appearance.

I really think HB are trying to meet the demand of new characters through blind bags now.

Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: Desert Rose on August 07, 2012, 12:12:02 PM: They look really neat :) Fits well into the whole Crystal Empire theme going on now aswell. Hopefully they will turn up as proper releases soon.
Unfortunatly though I think this is as good as they get cuz' lets face it... Hasbro are slacking with quality >.<

Post by: Brandi on August 07, 2012, 12:20:31 PM: Those are really neat!
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: ShortyBoo on August 07, 2012, 12:21:55 PM: The one looks kind of like Spitfire, so I hope they're also planning on making Soarin as well. I love the look of them, being translucent without all the messy glitter. I hope they make more like it. I've had a thing for colorful translucent things since I was a kid, so I love these.

Post by: Ren-Ren on August 07, 2012, 12:29:13 PM: They look neat! I wasn't really into the one in the Cloudsdale mini set, but transparency makes everything better! Heh heh I might get these when they come out.

I thought they looked different when I saw but couldn't figure out why. >_<

Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: dxgirly on August 07, 2012, 12:44:44 PM: The 3rd one is missing a cutie mark, unless it's on the other side
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: majikarte on August 07, 2012, 12:45:27 PM: I'm not a fan of the Wonderbolts, but these are so pretty! It's nice to see Crystal ponies that aren't all one colour, like the previous blindbags.
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: Enolaalone on August 07, 2012, 01:00:36 PM: Oooh I want! *grabby hands* This is making taobao harder and harder to resist.

And I hear rumours they used to be taller than an inch in height as well *jawdrop*
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: StarlightGaze on August 07, 2012, 03:45:21 PM: It's weird to see them as see-through. I'm pretty sure the one with the darker mane is Soarin'. Either these will be a 3-pack, or they'll be the "rare" blind bags in a wave.
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: DancingPhoenix on August 07, 2012, 04:41:36 PM: Something just looks weird and off about them, but I can't figure out what. Maybe it's the paint and the fact that the body in the suit is clear, but the wings and ears aren't? That painting though, goodness Hasbro D:

Post by: scarletjul on August 07, 2012, 05:19:45 PM: Cool! :)

I love translucent ponies. :)

Post by: MilkyTaroMochi on August 07, 2012, 05:42:18 PM: They look really neat! I'm not much of a fan of the Wonder Bolts, but these clear versions would be ones I'd love to own. <3

Post by: SourdoughStomper on August 07, 2012, 06:23:52 PM: These transparent ponies are pretty nifty.

Post by: Flutterwonder13 on August 07, 2012, 06:27:01 PM: I almost don't like seeing cool new stuff knowing America will have to wait forever for them!
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: DazzleKitty on August 07, 2012, 07:03:09 PM: Wow they just keep on coming out with more and more!

And in MY day, we DIDN'T have to trot forty miles uphill in the snow to find things!

Post by: kyandipoppp on August 07, 2012, 07:30:04 PM: These look awesome! The translucent effect is really neat. And, of course, it's the Wonderbolts! xD
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: Sunset on August 07, 2012, 07:42:19 PM: I like those! I hope they make other ponies like that with more colors and without the glitter. They almost look like the are made of glass. I actually like that about them.
Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: Lunar Dust on August 07, 2012, 07:48:01 PM: Thanks for sharing. Hope these are another Mini Set and that all are given names. One of the looks like Spitfire but not sure about the other 2?

Title: Re: Crystal Wonderbolts on Taobao
Post by: jwalraven on August 07, 2012, 09:49:52 PM: To me they look like Soarin', Spitfire, and the fan-named Misty.

Post by: xeevee on August 07, 2012, 09:53:42 PM: these are really great! I can't wait for the set to be released
