Title: Twilight Sparkle Playset

Don't think we've seen it MIB.

And on a side note, does she have two pairs of wings? It doesn't seem very noticeable from this picture though, but on Taobao itself (where you can zoom in) she pretty clearly has two pairs of them.

Edit: Here we go.

That is cool! My daughter wants it to add to the castle. Does anyone know what the price of its going to be?

I think she's just being displayed with one wing down, and the rear wing has a bit of shadowing on it from the plastic of the packaging. The feathery backs of the wings are kind of nice, from what I can tell.

if you are referring to the way her wings look on the back compared to the front there is weird sticker on the front of the wings that can be seen in other pics of her loose

Oh, that would make sense. xD I was about to say.

Oh! I'm glad that it's a sticker.  That means we can make our own stickers to put under the wings.

I want this set for the castle attachment... but I think I'll be going for the carriage too, because that has the new Spike and doesn't have those bizarre wings....

That is my problem.  I want this set for the castle but I like the pony better in the carriage set.  And I do not want to buy both.

Awesome! This will be a great addition to the wedding castle, also there's a carriage set?

Did they hire fakie designers to make this Twilight? She is soooo hideous! But I guess that is usually the way with motion ponies.

Also, Acheron 187, I am uncomfortable with your avatar--it makes me go wee wee :'(

We only saw the edge of the box at the Toy Fair so its nice to see it completely. I like this little bolt on Castle better than the Royal Wedding Castle to be honest but I can live without the Twilight. I have a feeling this is an item I ll simply try to pick up in a couple of years on ebay rather than shelling out the $30-40 Hasbro will probably charge.

Will this release of her only be with the playset.
Because I'd buy it... but like Hathorcat said it's kinda a bummer having to pay the full playset price.

I think she is going to cost a lot single for sure, unless some china sellers up her up for sale :)

Mmm, true. I just don't have space for more playset parts :yikes: I have bags of labelled accessories things from g3 and 4 in about 4 different places in the house! lol.

I think it was on Taobao for 20 dollars.

What on earth is going on on the underside of her wings?  It looks like the 70s threw up on them.

i will be selling the 1 that comes with this play-set I'm not interested in the crystal motion.

Ooooh. I think I'm willing to get the full playset. I like that it attaches to the wedding castle, even if said playset is a bit cheap and flimsy compared to previous MLP castles. But... well, we'll see. It'll probably be a while before alicorn Twilight is available as a single (or, more likely, coupled with somepony else like Celestia) and that will probably drive me to splurge for the playset.

*sigh* I guess I'll have to get this, since I've committed myself to buying all the playsets.  It doesn't look too interesting, though.  It just looks like a watered-down version of the wedding castle with an alicorn Twilight.

I would buy her and just remove the trippy stickers. Problem solved. XD

The playset is so cute- I love that it connects to the other set.   If I had room for playsets I'd get it for sure :D  Alas, I don't.

I also want the Twi- despite her odd head/neck issue.  She is on Taobao for approx $7.70 here: [link removed ~ many thanks ~ hathorcat]  not too bad, really.  I'm hoping she will be a mite cuter in person...

I love the playset and will get it to add on to my castle, but good lord! That version of Twilight Sparkle is hideous!

I'll just buy regular Cadance mold Twilight for now, who's on Ebay for around $14.
