Articulated Ponies!!!

[ponyqueen]

These look like skeleton ponies to me because of the articulation. Especially Coco- she is bone colored!

[otocolobus_manul]

OK. Update.  The Pegasus Ponies that are poseable don't have poseable wings.  At least not the RD one with Red shoes.   

She's one of the basic ones, i think people were talking about the more expensive version with Tank.

I'm not entirely impressed with these. I got Coco and Pinkie with the swan boat, but those are still in their boxes. I took Rainbow Dash out of her box, so I could take out Tank and... ugh, the articulation is strange. I honestly only got her because Hasbro is dumb sometimes and Rainbow Dash is the only EqG mini that doesn't have her pet. But I figured it'd be nice to add the articulated RD to my army anyway.

Not sure I'll be picking up any more of these, unless they come with neat accessories like Pinkie and her boat.

I wasn't that impress either.. I got Coco and let me just say the hair styling is not working out.. I haven't tested but I do thing her hair is in fact poly.. one of my friends who sells doll hair said there is a test I could do to see if the hair is poly but my mind already thinks it is..

I agree with the Articulation. It's awkward at best..

does this mean all the new ponies have this new (horrible) type of hair?

Don't know.. maybe, maybe not.. I would think that if they changed the hair at all they should at least go with Saran type hair.. could be they are trying to make production cost less for them...

I did just do a little bit of a test..

My friend said to try what I would call a 'sink or float' test.. According to her Nylon hair sinks while Polypropylene floats... So I grabbed an old tail I had laying around from a pony I never put back together due to the pony having cancer and I haven't decided what to do with her.. Anyway, filled a container with water and set a small portion of the tail in.. Of course like most things it sat on top of the water, but once i prodded it into the water it pretty much sunk to the bottom of the container... Now I took Coco and did the same thing with her mane... I was hoping it was going to sink but apparently even prodding it a few times after getting it submerged it still floated to the top.. so with this I assume it's Polypropylene... but I'm not sure if there is other ways to test other than feel and dye... and well I cannot dye this pony's hair unless I plan on customizing her... and I'm not an expert on how other types of Poly hair feel...

Interesting! Thanks for sharing.  off topic, but maybe I will try that with the ribbon hair AJ I got recently and see if it floats too.

Worth a shot.. the tail is harder to test while on the pony because it is kind of short

unless you want to completely submerge the pony.. I'm tempted to do that with Coco.. but I was worried about the possible washer holding the tail..

[sd_dreamcrystal]

Well I know this is old but anyone manage to tame the hair on these gals? My Coco is looking like she has fluffy pigtails

[gabumon]

not me.  i think it must be the packaging that perms it funny

I noticed no one ended up posting more info about the interior workings and dismantling these guys, so I've posted some tutorials with lots of pictures over in the Customs Area.  The thread is here: Clicky!

I think this proves that G4 ponies are way too thin.  Even looking at the non-articulated ponies, the cutie marks go two far down the leg because they have almost to haunch.  Similarly, there is no haunch to the articulated ponies, it's just a narrow leg.

These people need to go to a farm and actually look at a pony and how they move.

Yes this!

It just dawned on me what the legs look like to me. They make me think of the legs of a crab. 

Starlight Glimmer; Aw man it's going to be tough to wait for the EE ver. once the CMM ver. hits stores. I think I'd prefer her without the ribbon though.

More under the spoiler. You kinda get an idea of their range of motion and get a better look at the new head mold on Fluttershy.

wait they're target only??? sigh lets hope they're there when i manage to get to one

I've seen Coco Pommel at Walmart. She'd be great for freaky Halloween customs.  Ha! Make Skeletor out if her!

What I'm curious about is if they can do a sit.

They kind of can, at least better than the Mini EQG dolls

The body and head of the pony makes sitting odd... because no joints

Lol, I like the "sort of sitting" pose. It seems like an odd position one may have to take when crammed into a packed airplane.
