WeLoveFine Chibi Not-Blind-Boxed Vinyls

[Bergamot]

Looks like WeLoveFine wants a piece of Funko's blind box business!

Check out their new vinyl set here:

Like most of WeLoveFine's vinyl Pony offerings, they are very stylized! I think that they're pretty cute little things, but I'm really only interested in pony because I collect her. For that reason, I'm bummed out that they are blind boxed, since I figure the trading pool will be relatively small on these given their cost and lack of retail presence.

What do you all think? Yay? Nay? Hooray? They're okay?

UPDATE:
As the comments later in the thread reveal, these are no longer to be sold as "blind box" toys. Hooray!

I already like them better than Funko's blind boxes because they're in different poses and I love the chibi style.

I'm guessing that's Discord in the back and... is that... IS THAT CHRYSALIS?!  The wings... that HAS to be her, right?  *faints*

No Dashie or AJ though, that's actually extremely upsetting.  Maybe they'll do a series 2 if these sell well enough, and with the shipping date being at the tail end of the year, that gives me time to save up for a whole box.  I think I'll like these a lot!

Hmm... they're kinda expensive, though. There's plenty of time to save up, but I'm not sure if I want to buy two boxes just to ensure that I get Chrysalis, who is honestly the one I want the most aside from and Twilight.

very cute!
though i don't know if i'll get any.
i do want the twilight, and the muffin for a custom.
but i doubt i'll buy them just for that.
pretty easy to tell who the mystery ones are.

I want these so bad! They're super cute, but I'm sad that they're blindboxes. I really want Vinyl, Chrysalis, Muffin, and Flutterbat.

i'm sure you'll be able to get them. i'm mostly looking for twilight, dj and possibly muffin.

No Fluttershy either, just Flutterbat.

We'll need to get a trading thread together when they're released!

I'm really curious about how Chrysalis and Discord will look in this style. December, why you gotta be so far away?

[Rainbowrific Renia]

No Fluttershy either, just Flutterbat.

I guess I was counting that as technically still Fluttershy.  So yeah, maybe in another series they'd include her, Dashie and AJ.  Hopefully!

[medleymayhem]

Yeaaaah. I really want all of them. Mainly Ditzy Doo, Flutterbat, Chrysalis, and Discord...so basically all of them. I'll be totally in on a trading thread. Hopefully they'll also show up at Books-A-Million.

[nogames]

almost 350$ to get all the variants

It's greedy even for WLF.

I really, really love them but boy do i hate them being blind packaged. They aren't cheap to start with and importing them will be even more expensive. D :

[Violet CLM]

I think the Rarity looks really cute! The others I'm not a fan of, though I would like some Flutterbat toy someday.

[egyptiondragon]

I want them all but twilight damn we love find dont be so greedy

Yeah this :/ I only really want Twilight, though, so hopefully I'll be able to pick her up fairly cheaply. For $15 a go these had better have flawless quality, too.

I've been waiting for this thread... *cracks fingers*

I was so excited for these but the second they announced they were blind boxed my desire to get them plummeted to zero. The fact that they actually recommend buying two cases (at over $300) to ensure you get a full set, are they having a laugh?! They should have sold them like Nendoroids! 

I'm hoping by the time their December release date rolls around they'll have back-peddled and done away with the blind boxed idea, especially considering the fiasco with their first vinyl figure (having to purchase items to a certain value to be allowed to purchase it, then a few months later you could get it for $20 with no hoop jumping), there's already collector backlash on other sites where the news was announced lol.

In fact, their designs are a bit awkward if you ask me, not as cute as I'd hoped. I only really want , if I could buy them individually from WLF I might have bought a couple more characters, but since I'll probably have to shell out on eBay I'll only be buying her if any. 

But that's just my opinion.
