Dat Discord, Oh My Gawsh!!!  :P

I wonder how small he really is if he's going to fit in the same box-size as the other figures in the wave?

Yaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!  Think there will be a glittery version of Disccord?


I think, if I'm lucky enough to get more than one, I'll turn him into a lamp XD

Discord!  :biggrin:
And Big Mac and Rarity!

I'm a little disappointed there isn't any glow in the dark variants this time around.

I wonder if Hot Topic will get an exclusive set for wave 2. I'd like to see mini show accurate Big Mac.
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2
Post by: rosierjay on June 06, 2014, 08:22:17 PM
fantastic!!! i wanted the twilight but couldn't justify the space the big one would take. this is very exciting!!

wonder how hard it would be to turn big mac into flash sentry… i have muffins wings left from another custom i'm working on….hmmm.
though the doc's hair would look better.
twilight is the only pony so far who will be spared the blade and paint.

but its awesome to see these so soon.
think they realize how much better these sell than the big ones.

Post by: moonsugar on June 07, 2014, 03:16:06 AM
I'm wondering if the Discord minifigure and the normal release are going to be different. I know they're very fond of using the same molds wherever possible, but some comments here talk about his size, fitting in a square box the same height as the other ponies; perhaps his odd pose is to squash him down to scale?
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2
Post by: hathorcat on June 07, 2014, 05:34:29 AM
LOL....well I guess we know who the next Funko release after Rarity and Daring Do is going to be :P Looks like a single wave Discord. It was about time someone released him I guess.

Post by: UrocyonFox on June 07, 2014, 05:38:18 AM
Dear arena members, I need that Aj and big mac. I will be buying these bad boys until I get them, so if you want the others I will most likely get them.

That is all.

ha ha, but yes I need those apples!

I'm really not a funko fan but how big are the minis compared to the normal G4 Brushables?
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2
Post by: Charmypony on June 07, 2014, 09:20:00 AM
I could take a bet that the hot topic exclusive will be real color rarity and AJ.

they're about a half inch smaller than the normal G4 brushables, give or take.

Rarity looks SO GOOD in black. :)

As for the box size question-- This mockup image really makes it look like all boxes will be a little larger in this wave. They will probably all be Discord-sized, regardless of what's inside!
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2

Dat Discord, Oh My Gawsh!!!  :P

I wonder how small he really is if he's going to fit in the same box-size as the other figures in the wave?
The current Figures leave a lot of space  in their little box, so he will fit very tight in there ,but yeap :)  same box size :)
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2
Post by: Pony_Mama on June 07, 2014, 11:25:52 AM
There's still a chance that Hot Topic will have it's own exclusive assortment of these with a few more color options. Right?
Or will they have the GITD? GITD Rarity would make sense because she's a pale pony like Muffins and DJ Pon-3. Maybe Applejack?
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2

I see they are saying the boxes are the same size its just that each box will have 2 x Big Mac and 2 x Discord - so it will still be a 12 box set.
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2
Post by: Flitter on June 07, 2014, 11:40:53 AM
I wonder if Discord will be a good size to go with the brushables? I hope so as I just don't see Hasbro making him ever, besides maybe a mini figure eventually, and I'm not sure if I like the character enough to get a full size one. I can't wait to see more if him though.
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2
Post by: Aquatic Neon on June 07, 2014, 11:41:19 AM
Series one had more ponies 10 right this only has 7 characters which is weird I wasn't expecting series 2 until the end of the year, also what they should have done is include ponies from series one then to fill the extra 3 spots like show accurate Fluttershy, Lyra and Bon Bon. Maybe Series 3 will start to use ponies from the new waves and then some from the old series.
Title: Re: Funko minis: Series 2

Post by: Tabbyclaw on June 07, 2014, 04:29:17 PM
I don't really see the point of a black variation Discord if they're going to color all his limbs and add-ons normally anyway. My opinion on the clothed ponies is similar but less emphatic. I'm in love with the black Rarity, though. She reminds me of Nightmare Rarity from the comics, which is a character I'm pretty sure they created just because it would looks so cool.

Post by: Aquatic Neon on June 07, 2014, 05:02:44 PM
I like the minis, but not nearly as much as the larger figures, I will still get them all but need a large Discord! I wonder if Rarity and Daring will come out in full size before or after the minis are released.

Post by: QueenGusty on June 08, 2014, 03:05:09 AM
Discord's so much larger than the others...how on earth are they going to hide him in those boxes...uness he splits in two..?

And I haven't got ONE of the series 1 figures yet :cries:

Trixie's got a giant hat, and Discord is pretty big, so my theory is that the individual blind boxes will all be larger to accommodate these characters.

We'll see what they come up with! :)

Well looks like he is the correct scale he is just slouched over to match the minis though which are smaller than the brushables but not by much.

Thats for sure. Which just makes me even more wary of ever pre ordering with them. Its a gamble they take I guess. Especially as the images they are using are simply cropped versions of this original image rather than proper stock pics [which probably do not exist to retailers yet] or simply "image coming soon" shots.

They're a teeny company- so probably they don't have someone who can comb all the pony sites (assuming they even have access to them) and ask the boards to take the pictures down.

I suspect if they knew how much the pix had already been circulated, they'd give up.

Well I hope it doesn't hurt their marketing too much-  I'm sure they must be a bit miffed at whoever it was that leaked the picture before the press date. 

I'm pretty miffed at myself for going ahead and preordering with Toywiz.  I noticed they decreased the price somewhat.  I guess I'm just concerned that they'll sell out, and I definitely want the entire box at once so I don't have to search through the stores for each one.  I sure wish it were easier to get the box somewhere else.

Wonder if Hot Topic will have its own exclusive colored again-  probably...

Oh I understand how small they are and as someone who works with product launches on occasion I cant imagine how upsetting something like this must be. We had an internal investigation once over a picture of a new sports shoe leaking and it was a nightmare - turned out it was a leak by a retailer and not our little company but still pretty intense when everyone was hauled in and the investigation went on. 

My comment was more that I thought it odd they were contacted the odd pony blog or two, while the picture and the thread discussion stayed live on the actual Funko forum itself. One which is checked by Funko staff - you would think perhaps they would have caught started there.

That's fine, doesn't bother me :) Anyways I bet the price went up just guessing, also love how much black Rarity looks like Nightmare Rarity!

Aww, they did that weird thing with AJ's eyes...Last wave, it was Pinkie Pie. For some reason, her eyes were much skinnier and longer than the others, and it just looks weird. That stops me from really liking Pinkie. I'm bummed they did that to AJ too though, since she's my favorite character :( Daring Do's eyes are perfectly round, so I don't see why they couldn't make AJ like that as well.

Wonder if Hot Topic will have its own exclusive colored again-  probably...

I'm wondering if I should wait and see, or just go ahead and get a box.  Last year I wish I had waited for the Hot Topic releases so I could get the colored ones and not have to hunt.

People will probably end up with extras, especially if there are different exclusives at Hot Topic vers other stores again, if I get an extra AJ I can sell her to you :)

Up for preorder on toywiz http://www.toywiz.com/funkoponyseries2mysterybox.html
Also on http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=FNK12041&mode=retail

Both for $69.99 anyone know of any discount codes, also isn't this box more expensive than the last?

I'm so stupid for pre-ordering from Toywiz.  I preordered the first day they posted pictures- and to my surprise, they mailed something out!  But guess what it was?  Series 1.  Uh yeah... don't need that.

Now when I log in, it says in my invoice series 1.  I am POSITIVE though that I clicked on the picture of series two when I ordered-  is it possible they were still arranging things in their system and that dumped a series one box into my cart instead?  I don't know but Toywiz won't take the item back without return shipping and probably a restocking fee.  So bummed.   I don't know why I never learn.  This is the second order that Toywiz has completely messed up for me.  And that is out of only three orders.  Not a great track record.

In short-  I recommend NOT preordering this set from Toywiz.

  thanks for heads up !, hope they give you a return with no hassles, I have only bought one time from them and it was on the Amazon site, their site had the same item for a lot more and plus shipping and Amazon had free shipping on the same item :( and I ended up returning it ,the quality on the  ones they sent me was very poor :(.

The show accurate ones are harder to get, right? If so, what is the running price on them. Hopefully it's not as bad as the glitter versions of the larger sizes?

Black Rarity is also beautiful :O
$8,50 isn't too bad. Sadly, we don't have Hot Topics here, so I'll have to buy them second-hand or something.

Series one standard set was(is) sold at a bunch of different retailers, including Target and Barnes & Noble, where they were about $6 each. There were 12 in a box, two of which were glow in the dark.

Hot Topic had a unit with 24 boxes, but no glow in the dark ponies. Instead they have five Hot Topic exclusive ponies that were the ponys' normal body colors instead of black bodies. They were $7.50 each, but are now priced at $8.50 each. This $1 increase stinks, but considering they are constantly running a "buy one get one 50% off" deal, this makes every other pony $4.25, or an average of $6.38 each (before taxes). It was a better deal when they were only $7.50, as the average BOGO price brought them down to $5.38 each...

To bad Hot Topic gets an exclusive thing cause I refuse to buy them there due to being over priced. My HT had them at $8.99 to begin with so if they went up again they will be $9.99, but they are $6.99 at my Target.
