Title: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: hathorcat on March 16, 2012, 04:03:14 AM

She sold out pretty fast  but I think the seller only had one in stock....nice to see a close up her symbol though...


I dont really care that she is "from the show"...I am just loving a blue pony with white and blue hair!


Please do not link this post to any other website.... :shocked:

She's beautiful! I'm a bit lost though, is she a genuine hasbro creation or has someone customized her? I've never understood Taobao! xxx

WANT! Is she going to be an Toys'r us exclusive? Or a regular single?
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: hathorcat on March 16, 2012, 04:43:15 AM
I think the images at the Toy Fair showed her as part of the Toys R Us Exclusive set...dont quote me on that cause I honestly cant remember exactly....but I would think if they are going to the effort of making her she ll get released as a brushable single as well...or I hope so...I really really love a blue pony!!!

I think Trixie was shown to be both in the TRU exclusive and single

The MLP Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=381668998517210&set=a.134316363252476.23944.118429394841173&type=3) page during Toy Fair had the image announcing the TRU exclusive pack from what I remember, but not mentioning Trixie's name. But I also saw that she was shown with the ponies that are clearly going to be singles for the wedding line (having the wedding invite and a present; seen here (http://i.imgur.com/IT11v.jpg)). Also note that the two are different colors, the one shown with the TRU stuff is very dark with different hair compared to the one in the OP and the second image I linked.

Very least this is one of the legit ponies to have popped up on Taobao that we knew about a head of time xD

 Finally Hasbro you bring out a pony that isn't riddled with pink. I seriously live this pony. ^_^
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: Stroggos on March 16, 2012, 07:54:21 AM
I would be extremely interested in purchasing this pony but am currently wary of getting into screwing around on Taobao - If anyone is placing an order and can quote me a price, or has any news on her future UK availability, I would be extremely grateful.

I can't tell from that taobao picture... is that a regular sized brushable or a FS?
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: hathorcat on March 16, 2012, 07:58:29 AM
They only had one of her in stock and she is sold out...some ebay peeps must check taobao constantly lol! I would wait until she hits shelves...HB have already confirmed her as a release so I am sure she ll turn up eventually!!! Although maybe once we know what wave she is in it will be easier to track her down...

Yes, that's my viewpoint too. She will show eventually so no need to pay extra to get her now.

Should only be a normal brushable. At least that's all Hasbro had on display at the fair. Eyes also look too small to be FS, imo.

Yes, its different with ponies that may not ever turn up...or ponies that when they are released will be exclusives or parts of a set that turn out more expensive!!! But I understand being keen...as soon as I saw the big picture I was "wow...she may leap frog Star Swirl as my fav G4"

There's also going to be a White Celestia as well! It's going to be a talking one, but she'll be out at TRUs this fall according to Hasbro none the less. Baby steps!
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: hathorcat on March 16, 2012, 08:39:58 AM
I think the white Celestia which has been confirmed in the TRU set is in the same mould as the Royal Castle Friends set rather than the really large talking Celestia version...I believe its Princess Cadence we are getting in Talking Pony version...

There is no Celestia in the set actually! I think she was just displayed with that set (same with the Glow-in-the-Dark Zecora), if you look here (http://i.imgur.com/4SBYy.jpg) you can kinda see her wings are the same as the talking Celestia mold, not to mention the button in her cutie mark.  I know there's a high res image of her floating around, along with info of these sets/prices, I just can't find them right now (working on so little sleep /sobs). But that is the only Celestia I know of that will be white (not counting anything found on Taobao).
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: Dragonflitter on March 16, 2012, 08:50:45 AM
I think the white Celestia at the fair had fabric wings, though? She looked exactly like the talking pink Celestia, just white.

Edit: Oops too slow lol

I cannot wait to get the pack with her!  Wish she had her hat though!
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: hathorcat on March 16, 2012, 08:54:42 AM
Oohhh....interesting...can I ask where you found out what will be in the TRU set? From what I had read, seen and heard so far I thought it included the white Celestia [who I now see has a talking button after all!]...but I guess I was jumping ahead a bit!! In fact I thought that whole shelf was TRU exclusive stuff aimed at adult collectors and that the only separate piece was going to be Zecora and the rest altogether in one pack...

That will be much nicer if the brushables are just all by themselves...

And do you mean that only the brushables will be exclusive to TRU all the other items will be elsewhere?
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: Icicle on March 16, 2012, 09:00:25 AM
I found it on the MLP Facebook page originally and then I think I had seen more info on it on Equestria Daily (I personally don't take what they say at face value, but the fair information seemed pretty spot on). I think just all the small brusables + Nightmare Moon were part of the TRU set and it was gonna be like $35.
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: hathorcat on March 16, 2012, 09:05:28 AM
Cool! I am really pleased I didnt pay attention and white Celestia isnt going to be part of that set...I was going to say $35 is good for a pack then thought its just going to give me another PP and RD...sigh...and I dont like the DJ pony...lol maybe there is no point in this set for me after all...just keep everything crossed HB do their classic and break up the set to resell as individual ponies at some point down the line!

I don't know about ebay peeps, but perhaps it was one of the lovely people here on MLP Arena  ;) ... and perhaps that person will post some pretty pics and a review of her when she comes in the mail.


So excited though, I have wanted a Trixie for like forever. It's nice they are making antagonist ponies like her and Nightmare Moon.


And on the note of Toys R Us exclusives, Toys R Us... why must you be so far away from meeeee?

Yes I agree! Trixie would make a great FS pony!

I really wish that Hasbro would just do more FS ponies in general. I like the regular brushables but the FS have much more styling fun!

I dunno, for the 4-packs of G3's that were TRU exclusives, they were never resold. Finger Paints was only available in that pack, and Cotton Candy never appeared in that pose (although she appeared earlier in a different pose in a playset)

Hehe, I guess subtlety doesn't translate well onto the internet  :P . I will come out now and say "it was me!"


Yeah, there have been a lot of things scooped up and sold on ebay, lately.  Now I am curious. What kind of stuff have you seen that is making you skeptical? I don't think I have seen anything too crazy lately. You have peaked my interest.


To keep on topic: "trixie trixie trixie!". Just watched the episode.

Yeah!!! Thats awesome....I am so pleased it was an Arena member who managed to track her down....congrats! lol now you have told us you must post pics pretty please and tell us if she is as gorgeous in person as in her pictures...

I am afraid it is just some recent experiences when you try to help people out and find that not everyone is completely honest and as lovely and sunshiny as they appear on the surface - thats all - not something I would go into here - but just a learning curve that the community is bigger than ever before.

Aha, yeah, the internet gives people a sense of anonymity and a few people use that to do unscrupulous things. That is especially a bummer though that people are taking advantage of people. Ah well, in every bunch of good apples, there could be a few rotten ones.


I will take pics in a couple of weeks when she arrives. :)

She is so obnoxious and i can't stand her voice.

Hmm. She has the Twilight eyeprint. One of the Trixies on display had Twilight's print and one had another one. I'm wondering if the set and the single will have different prints? Did they settle on the Twilight one or is this one a prototype from fooling around while making the decision?

I really wish that Hasbro would just do more FS ponies in general. I like the regular brushables but the FS have much more styling fun!
:lol: Me too!

*this*   I don't quite understand her character's popularity in the brony community but as a toy she's really pretty.  I love blue ponies.  I'm just going to have to blank out that one episode.

I felt kinda bad for Trixie. She was just putting on a show and the Mane 6 were heckling her so they deserved it. The way the episode is might give kids the impression that it is okay to heckle a performer. I would have liked if at the end instead of running her out she had a chance to explain that she was just a performer and the Mane 6 apologized for heckling her.
Title: Re: Trixie on Taobao
Post by: Catlein on March 16, 2012, 06:41:45 PM
Congratulations BrightIdea!

Also, my theory on the white FS Celestia is that she will be out in the fall. One of the Hasbro press releases said that there would be a new release with her and Luna decked out in wedding gear so I am trying to be patient :)

That was always my thought as well when watching the episode. It takes a lot of guts to stand up on a stage. Although I think trixie's problem was the performer mask became her face after awhile.
