4DE back on track?

[Galactica]

Toywiz and BBTS both list the 4DE Luna plush as available in April or May-  could it be she will actually finally be made?

I noticed she is $10 higher and price than previously- but since the anticipated ship date seems to be so soon, I went ahead and ordered her (again).

I had originally ordered her from a comic shop back in 2014- yes, 2 years ago.  After about a year of delays- I finally cancelled my order.  I am not regretful as the comic shop DC'ed the item.

Here's hoping she actually comes this time! http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=FDM10011&mode=retail

Hopefully she'll be up for sale soon, I missed their Trixie plush as I was waiting for another plush to be released to save on shipping.
Weren't all the newer 4de plushies back then listed at $25 or so? Luna's a much more complex plush than the Mane 6, even Trixie costs more (Though that's due to her hat and cape).

What concerns me, there was a comment on 4de's facebook, saying something about 4de losing their license due to the issues they've had over the past few years. I don't know the validity of this, and I haven't gotten a chance to email 4de service. Hoping 4de still comes out with more plushies, they did show off smaller sizes, a Big Mac and Muffins plush at some point. Would love to add those to my collection.

Luna and Celestia were always way more expensive- they were $48 or something (back in 2014 when they were previewed).

I think even if 4DE lost their license to make further products- the ones that have been ordered and which are in production will likely, eventually, arrive.

There is a comic store selling Trixie on ebay for $26.99 with free shipping if you are still looking for her... they seem to have all of the current 4de ponies.  Seller name is manji12blades

That's a great deal on that Trixie plush, bought it instantly. A lot less expensive than buying her from 4de directly.
Still hoping for more 4de plushies, the quality is amazing for the price.

Well, I'm guessing the princesses will eventually be made since RD, Trixie, Alicorn Twilight, and the others all got made. They may be delayed a few months to a year from from the promise date, but they'll get there eventually. I can't really say it's a bad thing for me, since it gives me more time to save up.

Yeah- thanks to you I bought one too!  Plushies are dangerous because they take up SO much room but I have really really loved the 4DE ponies that I have so far- such beautiful quality and proportions. My favorite by far after actual custom ponies by WhiteDove and Skeen

Apparently this artist worked with 4de, doing prototypes for Maud, the CMC and Flutterbat. Would've loved these as official plushies.

That would be a really cool plush to have! I just don't know if I can justify the price tag for myself... Would love a Flutterbat, too, btw.

I wish they did not lose the license.  Finally we get show accurate plushies...and of course, the company has issues getting them made...sigh, I wanted to collect all of Ponyville and more

That is awesome- love that style. Looks like he/she may have been key in developing the entire pony line, based on the fact that they are selling a pdf pattern- pretty cool!

That's SpaceVoyager's dA.  She's a member here and makes AMAZING plushies.

Oh that's awesome!  How cool that she worked for 4DE?  I am sorely tempted to buy one of her patterns- as IF I had time to sew ponies.  But what stops me is that I don't have an embroidery machine and I think they look way less good without the embroidery...

Get patches made?  I know people on Etsy make them.  You can just whip stitch them on!

Hmmm, that is not a bad idea...
