*UPDATE* The only pony showing on the website as of this morning is Snuzzle. I don't know if they got a ton of orders and they're out of stock, changed their minds about producing them, or maybe had a limit on how many preorders they could take. I'm hoping we see all of these available again soon!
*UPDATE* Alternate store site: CityLightsCollectibles.com (http://www.citylightscollectibles.com/disney-movies.html?product_collection=855)
I LOVE seeing new G1 merchandise, especially when they're THIS CUTE :iconclap: From Department 56, who also has those G1 snowbaby sculptures from last year.
Preorders for these Christmas/Holiday ornaments are available at Department56corner.com (http://www.department56corner.com/catalogsearch/result/index/?function=857&price=10-20&q=my+little+pony) and will be available August 1 for $14 each.

Wow! These are so cute. Do you know the prices on these? I looked on the website and couldn't find them.

Aww! I don't even collect G1 but these are really cute!! If I see them around I might have to grab one. :lol:

oh my godddddssss do they ship worldwide? checking the site now, I NEED those!
(Also, I can't find these? Only 3 'snowbabies' things which are also completely adorable, but not my thing XD )
oh! just saw your link. thank you :D
-
Following this so I remember! :)
-
Awesome! Those are so cute! I'll definitely have to get at least some of these. I'm surprised that they did an entire set instead of just one.
-
I hope they ship internationally! I adore them :lovey:
-
Those are SUPER cute! I just ordered 4 and found there's an added bonus. If you sign up for an account, you get $10.00 off your order. If you buy more than $44.00 of stuff, you also get free mailing. Thanks for the heads up Ashlyne!
-
Oh how cool and not bad prices for them! I might have to get them. I'm not sure something about the eyes and cheeks look off to me.

Yes, they're not the traditional G1 eye. They look chubby :)
-
Thanks for the link. The price is pretty reasonable also. :)
Ponyfan
-
I'm freaking out. I love these!
-
ZOMG I NEED at least 2 of these! Gotta remember to check the site once I get paid again.
-
AHHHH I NEED BLUEBELLE !!! Everyone is shocked at that, right? :P
But seriously, this is the first Bluebelle merch since the early 2000's, I'm so excited!!!
-
They're a nice idea, but why do they look like a 4 year old painted them? :(
-

I'm wondering if they're small?
I wouldn't doubt they're hand-painted. It's a pretty typical paint job for an ornament like this. It doesn't even phase me anymore :P
-
That's it, decision made - I will have to go get a new tree specially for pony ornaments! XD
-
Need them!! :lol: I hope there is a Cotton Candy one, always need more Cotton Candy!
-
OMG!! I want them all, but $14 each?! Oof!!
-
That sledding Minty is tooooo cute! :lovey:
-
Those are adorable! Can't decide which I like best. :)
-
Love them!!! I love how they each have a different pose. Thanks so much for sharing! :D
-
They're a nice idea, but why do they look like a 4 year old painted them? :(
Yeah I am quite disappointed! I was hoping that Hallmark would release some nice ornaments again like they did with Cotton Candy in 2014...
-
How cute!! Yayy!!!! I'm not a preorder type of girl but I will definitely buy all of them like I bought the large figures last year.
Maybe these are still pretty prototypey? I'll still buy them regardless but I feel like we'd get neater painted eyes and smoother sculpts.
-
I'm only seeing Snuzzle on that link.... Everything else is non-Pony. But Snuzzle is very cute!
-
Those are adorable!! Want!!
-
Well that went right on my amazon wishlist... *grabby hands*
-
I'm only seeing Snuzzle on that link.... Everything else is non-Pony. But Snuzzle is very cute!
Looks like they took down all the others except Snuzzle! Maybe they fulfilled their preorder limit? I hope we see them back on the site soon! Or at least by August, when my order is expected to ship.
On a positive note, I managed to track down that Cotton Candy image. See updated original post :)
-
Very cute.
-
Well darn! I'm gonna have to get all of them lol!
-
They are cute, but they look a bit... unprofessional ^^; like if someone with not-so-great art skills made them...
-
These are so cute!!
-
They are so cute! I wonder why there is only Snuzzle now? Did anyone manage to preorder the rest?
They are a leeeetle bit expensive considering that it looks like a 9 year old painted them- but the shape is nice and I think the sloppy painting could be fixed right?
Ah- they have those other MLP/Snowbabies in stock too- now THOSE are some beautifully executed ponies. If only they could just take the ponies from those sculptures and make them ornaments...

I placed an order for all of them last week while I was on vacation. It seemed to go through, but the order showed "verifying stock" as the status on the items. Then, just this morning, I got an email saying the Cotton Candy one is out of stock and is removed from order. I emailed them asking if they plan to have more in stock when these are ready to ship in August, and they said aren't getting more in. So I'm not sure what's going on, since I don't think ANY of them are actually in stock if it's a pre-order. I'm half-expecting the others on my order to be cancelled too :(
-
I need the Bluebelle one hanging on my tree this year! I hope they become readily available
-
I have been confused before by department56.com and department56corner.com back when I was ordering last season's figurines.
I know there are a lot of other side sites or whatever, too. Here's Cotton Candy on another one.
http://www.citylightscollectibles.com/department-56-4051761-my-little-pony-cotton-candy-ornament.html
Though I imagine if they are pulling from main they'll be pulled from the sides too.

I went ahead and ordered them all through City Lights just in case!!! I really love the shape of them- I think the sloppy painting could be fixed probably...

I might do the same thing -- cover my tail on both sites and hope for the best. I can't find any discounts for CityLights, but at least they're another source! Thanks ponycake!
-
want 10 of each! :X!

Yeah I mean what if they just have a limited supply? It would stink to miss out.
OR it could be that the number of preorders will determine whether the figures get made or ordered...
-
I ordered Cotton Candy, Bluebelle and Blossom. I hope they aren't cancelled. :(
-
*sigh* I placed a "just in case" order with City Lights. I just don't want to chance not getting a full set of these.
By the way, City Lights does ship internationally :)
-
Also guys, this site has last year's on good sales.
https://www.countrynmoregifts.com/Good+Night+Snuzzle-26811.cnm
$21 for the Snuzzle figurine, $25 shipped. These are very big very nice quality pieces. I was surprised how large and nice. I think $25 is a steal.. I paid full price for mine I think last year and even that was worth it.
-
There is one store in my area that sells Department 56 stuff. They did get the Snowbabies MLP figurines last year so I'm hoping they will get these ornaments also.

Thanks Ponyfan! The Starshine one is also only $28. That's a good deal! I don't like the babies much, but the ponies are really nice quality. They have the Powder one too, but it's still full price.
-
Ahhh! I need these so bad!!

Ugh- you had to post that. Now they are in my cart... but I really don't love snowbabies. If only I could get them off of there somehow...
-
ordered them as I can't resist G1 stuff. We will see what happens!!

Buuuuy ittttt
I bought another Snuzzle and they shipped it already. Same day.

Such adorable ornaments! :D Love the different poses and activities for each pony too.

I did it. I did it damn you! The figures are just so cute... and there are only a few of Starshine left!
I also heard back from "City Lights" regarding the ornaments- he was not aware of any cancellations, it is on their books that the ornaments will arrive in late August of this year.
Looks like I've expanded my pony holiday stuffs!!
-
Eh, I don't like the eyes or the sloppy symbols. Would have been nice to see something closer in gorgeousness to the Cotton Candy from Hallmark. -shrug-

Well, that is seriously lame! It's hard to believe they would only get a shipment in August and none like, when it's actually the holiday season! Hopefully you just talked to someone who really doesn't know what they're doing. Heaven knows that happens to me all the time....
*sigh* I placed a "just in case" order with City Lights. I just don't want to chance not getting a full set of these.
What will you do if everything from both places ships?
-
:iconclap: :iconclap:
Thanks for posting! I ordered all 6! Lol
My poor bank account! :sheepish:
SOO worth it though! :biggrin:
Hopefully the order will be successful. We shall see.. :wonder:
-
Interesting. Cotton Candy is now "out of stock" instead of on order on citylights. Maybe demand surpassed the amount they were going to make? Idk. I have no idea about the process of preorders.
-
Ornaments??? Did someone say ornaments????
Thankfully I saw this while all 6 were still available. Now let's keep our fingers crossed that they actually get shipped out.
Now to think hard about ordering the snowbabies. The price is still a little high for my liking.

Yay no snowbabies this time!!!
These are precious, I hope I can get them :lovey:

Came to the thread to check out the ornaments ($14 for each one?!!?) and ended up buying the Snowbabies Figurines (Shame the powder one was sold out). A win in my world!
-
What cute ornaments! A bit too expensive for my taste, but it's great to see more G1 merchandise.
-
How cuuuute! I love G1 Minty, but they are all so great!
-

I'll ♫ have myself a merry little Christmas ♫
:xmas:
*If* everything comes in, I may sell the extras. I know a few people that were on the fence, or that it was a little early to be thinking about buying Christmas stuff. I got free shipping with both orders, so at least there's not that added expense. I might just hold onto them or give them randomly as gifts to others I exchange with.

A lot of places have small number of items they will sell on "preorder" because they don't know the actual number they will get from the company. Then when stock actually comes in they will put the rest up for sale.
Looks like preorders of Cotton Candy, Bluebelle and Blossom are now sold out- but they still have Snuzzle, Minty and Butterscotch...
I do really hope the line doesn't cancel!
-
Ah got it. That response from the company before seems strange. Without that I'd think we're definitely getting them.

Wow, I just checked this morning and they still had Bluebelle and Blossom at City Lights. Either there's a really small amount they've set aside for preorder, or they're very popular! At $14, I can see why they're going out of stock one-by-one. It's pretty pricey to get the whole set, so I think people are picking up their faves.
-
Any updates on these?
-
My backup order at CityLights came through :) So I have a full set, and a few extras.
-
I like that places are still putting out G1-styled merch, but these look so cheaply made. :blush: I want to want them, but I hope I can see what they look like in person, otherwise I can't bring myself to order them, especially if that's an accurate representation of their quality considering the high price...
-
They're gorgeous! <3 I want them all!
-
I bought a full set on ebay for
$10 $14 each a few months back in late August. The quality is pretty bad, but as a customizer, I had planned to touch the paint up myself. There is no "white" in the eye, which is what drives me craziest.
ETA - I incorrectly recalled how much I paid for them and when exactly I bought them. ;)
-
I am gonna pass these look super cheaply made, color me rather unimpressed and disappointed :mad: :enraged:.

:shocked: People have these in hand already? I preordered and totally forgot about mine/haven't heard anything.
-
Oh my goodness, those are so cute!!! :lovey: I really want Bluebelle especially.
-
The person I bought them from, on ebay, still has a Blossom and a Snuzzle left for $14 each with free shipping. :)
-
I preordered ages and ages ago and JUST TODAY got my notice that they are all in and ready to ship!

I was thinking of fixing them up too- even in the promo shots they look very sloppily painted, but they ARE G1 ponies!
I don't suppose anyone has a picture of them in hand ?
-
These are so cute! Does anyone have "in hand" pictures yet to see the actual quality?
I wonder if any US retail locations will have them. I love them but $15 each is steep for a non-hallmark ornament.
-
I'll try to get you guys some pics tomorrow. :)
-
I wish they had the ponies by themselves and not with the Christmas accessories. I don't think they look very good.
-
my order has been 'processing' for over a week since the final payment went thru. I am starting to get a bit irritated.
-
I am curious to see what them look like in person. The Cotton Candy and Minty ones are kinda cute.
-
Sorry guys. I keep meaning to take pics, but it's been a crazy couple of weeks and other things are taking priority. I will say that the quality is about what you see in the pics.....not that great. However, they are only a few inches in size. When they're on display and you're not holding them in front of your face, they're super cute. I think when I put them on my tree, they're going to look even better.
-
I finally got mine!
They are surprisingly cute!!!
As Ashlyne mentioned- they are so small that the imperfections aren't even actually noticeable in person-
-

As previously stated, not good quality but very cute. On a tree you wouldn't even notice the flaws.
-
Nooooo they actually do look pretty cute :yikes:
lol I might have to try and get my hands on some eventually :biggrin:
-
I love when G1s makes come back!
-
Gosh they are so stinking cute! Thank you for the pictures. So small though. >.< Molded accessories might have been easier to control.
I'm going to have to get these.... I wish they would show up on a more reliable site like Amazon.
Skylar: Have you gotten your order yet?
-
...I'm going to have to get these.... I wish they would show up on a more reliable site like Amazon...

Glad to hear they made it finally. I think this might be my suggestion to my mother as to what to buy me for Christmas.
