Title: Let's discuss the NY Toy Fair
Post by: Sunset on February 04, 2017, 02:25:44 PM
So it's two weeks till the New York Toy Fair ( Feb. 18-21).  Is anyone else excited?  I always look forward to seeing what new ponies are coming out.

I hope to see which mini figure theme will be next after the Rarity sets.  Will it be Rainbow Dash or Fluttershy?  Will it have a theme like the Nightmare Nights one?


What do you hope to see?  What do you expect to see?

I'm really excited too! I can't wait to see what big playset we're gonna get this year. Maybe there's a new castle in the movie?
I hope we also get more new reboot brushables with new characters, from the movie or not!!

And more cute plush and GOH sets! :biggrin:

Yep, I'm excited! I hope to see more reboot stuff, I've got my fingers crossed for Fashion Styles in new designs but figure it's quite unlikely. I also hope to see more Guardians of Harmony stuff, none of it has turned up in stores down here yet... even so it's fun to see what's new. ^.^

I'm kinda bummed since my NY connection is now my roommate.  Which means...obviously he won't be going to the fair this year.  He was always good for letting me know what was there.  I do like seeing what is new, even though I haven't been super excited to pick things up like I once was.

Not too excited sad to say. I don't have an interest in the story packs but I'm sure we'll see some of those as well as more of the GoH lines and the reboot lines. Right now I'm just wishing for really good non-G4 based fakies XD

Also, because I'm looking at MLP Merch atm, We'll likely see the K'Nex spinoff...

But this brings a question for me... What happened to the figures from Loyal Subjects?

Hopefully there'll be some non-reboot ponies, or at least they'll have figured out how to make their faces better. Some more fashion styles would be neat.

I can't wait to see what's coming.  I like some of the GoH and the EqG mini figures.  Hoping to see an EqG mini Luna. I also really like the closed-mouth new-mold ponies, so it would be nice to see some more of those, too.

honestly I agree with this completely. The G4.5 poses look weird and I don't like how they have unpainted tongues and I also don't care for GOH because most of them look angry or have opened mouths. I'm also not into statues like the GOH fan series cause I have nowhere to put them. The only thing I like is the plushies.

But this brings a question for me... What happened to the figures from Loyal Subjects?

I haven't heard anything about them in some time.  I wonder if they decided they didn't have enough interest.

Post Merge: February 05, 2017, 11:05:55 AM

I'm not completely sold on the new style brushables but part of that is because I already own every one of the characters released thus far at least 4 times over.  I just can't bring myself to buy them again.  That's why I'm hoping for brand new characters.
Title: Re: Let's discuss the NY Toy Fair
Post by: Luxrayx on February 05, 2017, 11:07:09 AM
More than anything, I'm hoping for happy GoH figures! I adore their articulation and whatnot, but it's a shame that they're all angry-looking. And maybe some new characters for the reboot brushables...
Title: Re: Let's discuss the NY Toy Fair
Post by: sd_dreamcrystal on February 05, 2017, 12:49:33 PM
Actually there are two characters in the GoH line that are not angry looking... Pinkie and Cheese Sandwich. The New AJ in the line is also not angry looking (thank goodness)

That was my question too. I had talked to the representative at their booth last year. I am going to make sure to try to stop by their booth again to see if I can get the scoop.


As for regular ponies, I hope we get to hear more about their toy release plans. Meaning if the majority will be singles or if they will be more "playsets" I love the Celestia figure but I really don't want to buy a playset for her. I also hope we get more of a glimpse at the movie. I think a lot more licensees will having products featuring the new style artwork.

Considering it's been about a year and that set keeps getting pushed back, I hope you get some answers when you visit their booth.

I'm curious of what other 'gimmicks' will be added to these newer figures for the normal toy line.. I mean those ponies are small enough what else can they do with them? (I almost want them to do a Gumby thing with them XD)

Post by: Gator on February 15, 2017, 01:24:48 PM
I would like to see more G1 characters brought back, but done well.  I hated the new Moondancer in the new cartoon series.  Hateful and unlikable.  I would even like to see more retro G1 items.  I am a huge transformers fan, and the generations line for them has been alive and well for years, bringing back all our old friends with an updated look.  Hasbro is really missing out with pony collectors who were children in the 80's.

I'm always excited about Toyfair-  I heard they were going to try and start opening some parts to the public? I wonder if they started that yet?

I sneaked into Toyfair once on an Exhibitor pass (fam member) and was disappointed to learn you have to make appointments in advance with the BIG manufacturers like Hasbro and Mattel in order to see most of their new goodies... (I think they do background checks to make sure you aren't a corporate spy, haha)  - it was still fun but I didn't get to see the REALLY good stuff in person- I had to wait until people posted pictures of it online (thank goodness for press sneaks!)

Now I just wait to see what pictures pop up-  I am curious to see where MLP may be going- I'm not currently a huge fan of the reboots but there are things about them I like a lot- particularly the details

They do have a public event currently, it started last year. It's called "Play Fair" but its sponsored by Nickelodeon so its only a select few licenses. Last year they had like Shopkins and Miraculous Ladybug and such. Was a huge event!

Yeah, everyone wants to see all teh new and cool stuff so unless you get a verified press pass and appointments (or just know people) it's hard to get in to see stuff otherwise. Most people do a great job at covering new stuff. Can't wait to see what trickles out. I believe Hasbro is having a pre-press event tomorrow so hopefully we'll see some awesome stuff. Movie is this year so I expect big things :D

Also, because I'm looking at MLP Merch atm, We'll likely see the K'Nex spinoff...

Also, I looked at the EqG Minis list again, and;

"In the fall, kids can pretend that RARITY has opened a boutique to sell her stylish accessories. Or pretend to enjoy a fresh fruit smoothie from APPLEJACK at her smoothie stand where she can whip up a fresh and tasty treat!"

I wonder what these will look like, I hope they're cute.

Thanks for that link!  So the one thing i can see for certain is that the next FiM Collection is going to be Canterlot.  I guess that makes sense that they will want everything to go along with the movie in the fall.  But I do hope we make it back around to Fluttershy's cottage at some point in the future.

I also think I saw Fashion Styles in the new design but I'm not certain.

Where?

I wonder what the playset with Pinkie is? It looks like a coral reef.

Also, AAAAAAA SOARIN. And next to him are several new pose characters. I see Lyra and Starlight, but I wonder who the other two are? One looks like Bon Bon and the yellow earth pony I have no idea about.

To be fair, they did make that giant castle 2 years ago.  For the FiM collection, they've skipped making Fluttershy's and RD's houses in order to make Canterlot for the movie.  It looks taller than the other houses so I'm a little worried it won't fit in the space were I'm displaying these.

There's a giant hippogriff.  I believe that's a first for MLP.  The guy calls it a griffon but it is definitly a hippogriff.  Actually looks kinda neat.  I like his color scheme.

Not sure if I'm allowed to say this, but I just figured I'd say that the MLP Site-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named has a TON of information and pictures of stuff - more GoH, more brushables, stuff in packaging, close-ups of the blindbags (we're getting a solar guard! and svengallop! AND MOONDANCER! and many more!), fash'ems and tons of other stuff.

UPDATE: I looked closer at the blindbags and there's also an awesome updated Celestia, Trenderhoof, Starlight Glimmer, what appears to be Lightning Dust (!!!!!!), what appears to be Sapphire Joy, an updated Uncle Orange and a few that look like they might be Aunt Orange, Philomena, Tempest Shadow, the Storm King, a Wonderbolt with a metallic mane, Grubber, what looks like Limestone Pie (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), and Cloudy Skies or whatever his name is.

Also, a bunch more updated characters like Vinyl and Octavia, Fleetfoot, Thunderlane and what looks to be Suri.

The MyFroggyStuff video shows a Pinkie Pie seapony in the background in a shell that looks like a smaller version on the G1 ones. I already wanted the pearly/translucent sea ponies but if they come with the shells I'll want them even more! It's a non pearly version with the shell but hopefully all version will have shells. The babies are cute too!

Oh boy did Hasbro DELIVER this year!

I really hate going onto that "certain website" and giving them even more page views but I just had to! Hasbro really is going all out with this movie, they had to dedicate 2 articles to licensed merchandise! One with regular MLP and one with movie MLP! IdleHands also did a walkthrough video seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RKFskrFt8I and we got to know two of plot points:

*The mane 6 will be celebrated at a "Friendship Festival" in the beginning of the movie taking place in Canterlot, which is where the conflict starts

*Twilight and Spike get a song called "We Got This"

The Twilight doll sounds nothing like her  :lol: but strangely it sounds like...Jenny from Friendship is Witchcraft doing the voice? Hmm.

That Twilight robot doll better have Tara Strong coming out of that mouth. For 130 bucks a pop they BETTER have gotten her.

A few more updates from That Site;

-Aurora and Diamond Select have dropped their license and will no longer be making MLP products. This means the Trixie and Vinyl banks will be cancelled. The article I read speculated that Hasbro is trying to cut down on using other companies to produce MLP stuff, and is trying to produce more themselves.

-MLP cookies will be coming! Very exciting. They will apparently be available at TRU, Ross and Burlington.

-Starlight Glimmer will be getting a new pose rerelease, in what looks to be the same line as the Fluttershy, Twilight and Rainbow with their gala dresses (not sure what outfit she's wearing, though). Her box also has the movie logo, which may or may not indicate that she will be in the movie.

Funko had no new pony products to show. Funrise is not making more plushies but is working on other pony products that weren't available for showing.
Isn't it because Hasbro didn't renew their contracts because they want to be making more of their own pony stuff or something along those lines?
It usually has more to do with what the licensee wants than Hasbro.

My guess for Funrise is that there are now so many plushie competitors that do a better job... that they don't want to compete for a tiny market share.

My guess for Funko is that since they did ponies for a couple years- it is just time for them to move on. They specialize in trendy pop culture- so it is rare for them to have the same characters lasting for years...
