Title: Typo Cotton On's new retro/G1 Christmas tree ornaments
Post by: shabbychicdee on October 03, 2022, 01:15:34 AM
just found these at Cotton On's Typo store, one single star Shine and a gift pack of 3 with firefly, glory and applejack.

each have '2022 Hasbro all rights reserved' under them.

weirdly enough, wondering why there is a pink blotch over glorys shooting star symbols on both sides and on the online pomo photos too, maybe they didn't get Glorys copy writes  :wonder:  it's so annoying but she is super cute.

and sadly applejacks head isn't just turned but very much looking like its on backwards  XD
i would not have bought this if it was a single. i wonder if my crafty husband could take her head of and re-arrange it LOL  :lol: :P

Applejack's apples are tipped over too!  💨💨💨🍎🍎🍎

Glory's pink spots were supposed to be on her cheeks (her face cheeks, that is  :biggrin:  ) The little cutout is supposed to go around her hair. 

It's too bad they didn't catch these errors.  I wonder how many of them are like this?

It's Typo in the UK, I've only recently seen the shop when out and about for my birthday. VERY expensive in my eyes, seems like a more 'adult' Paperchase (i.e. less bright colours, more serious tone, MORE EXPENSIVE) with some brand names such as Care Bears, MLP and Garfield

The MLP figures are also available in singles I think, if you only want one character

Ahhh that's awesome, thanks for the link!! I don't go in Typo very often but there's one not too far away from me. I'll have to go there soon ^^

"Adult Paperchase" is a great description of it :silly:

I had to look it up, and the reason I've never seen the place is that the closest one is either in a totally inaccessible midlands shopping centre or Derby :Z

But I might get to London by the end of the year, and apparently there's one near where I used to live, so if I get there, I'll try and remember to go look.

ohmygoodness me :lol: i did think of that lol. it would have been a very big blush spot, maybe it didn't fit so they decided to put it someone else. heheh

oh dear didn't notice AJ's sideways apples.
yeah i wonder if they will mend these since they are on stock photos too. its amazing what passes QC these days

Awwww these are so cute! I hope they fix that error with Glory's blush though XD We have Typo shops here in the UK, I hope we get these too!! They had a really cute Grumpy Bear ornament in there last year so fingers crossed :3

i have the cheer bear from last xmas, i might add more as they are still selling them this year

Those are pretty cute but they could be so much better with some quality control  :cry:  Glory is so cute but that paint error is pretty bad.
I'm having flashbacks to last year's Powder ornament's leg debacle...

I'm on the east coast of USA in a little state called Virginia. Seattle is the other side of the country but maybe they have a store or the product is somewhere on the east coast of usa??

on our site (in NZ) we have the gift pack of 3 with funshine, grumpy and cheer bear and singles of cheer, tenderheart and grumpy :D
maybe they are still yet to come hopefully, fingers crossed for you guys ;)

Post by: Carrehz on October 04, 2022, 06:11:09 AM
I checked their site and they haven't got any Care Bears listed for sale yet, but they do have one in the photo for the Ornament section, so hopefully they'll show up over here later :)

edit: I got them! The MLP ornaments I mean :) I checked all the sets in store and all of them had Glory's cheek paint stuck to her symbol, so it looks like that error's here to stay... not sure quite how they managed to mess that up... but whatever. they're soooo pretty!! ty again for the heads up shabbychicdee, I don't usually go over there so I'd have missed these otherwise :)

Post by: Ponyfan on October 04, 2022, 03:24:45 PM
These are cute. I can kind of understand how Applejack's apples ended up a bit tilted but I'm also confused why Glory's blush ended up on top of her symbol and the error wasn't caught before these went on the shelves.  I can't figure out why someone would think the pink circle was supposed to be where it ended up unless someone is using a photo that has a really bad reflection on it as a reference.

Sadly, there's not a store close to me to buy these. :(

They can be ordered online in the UK, not sure about elsewhere. I can pick up and post for anyone if someone wants!

Ooooh she's so CUTE!! I hope she shows up over here later. I don't think they've finished bringing all the ornaments over here yet (there's some pictured in promo photos on the UK site that aren't actually available yet, like the PPG heads) so fingers crossed!

I found the Starshine and the pack of 3 in Typo in Kingston, but none of the other stuff mentioned, so maybe we just won't get it. I won't be back down south for a while anyway, I don't think. (sad face). The store was ridiculously easy to find, I don't know why I never saw it before :)

Title: Re: Typo Cotton On's new retro/G1 Christmas tree ornaments
Post by: Carrehz on October 17, 2022, 02:08:05 PM
Congrats on finding them :)

I checked the Australian site the other day and it looks like they do ship to England. Shipping was a bit silly, but not as bad as some international shipping costs I've seen. I'm holding off on importing because I'm keeping my fingers crossed Bluebelle'll show up here later (also because I'm broke right now xD) but it's nice to know that's an option if they don't release her over here.

Because of the postal strikes causing chaos here atm I didn't order bluebelle, but we did put the other four on the tree the other day. they are quite heavy but they do look very pretty nestled in with the tinsel :)

I know they are mimicking the official artwork but... why with the backwards heads??? It's even worse in 3D.

I finally got my paws on Bluebelle yesterday :) Sadly one of her legs snapped off in the post, luckily it was a clean break so it glued back on okay. Shame though since I think she's the best of the four! I wish they'd released her earlier in the month - I had a devil of a time finding her >_< the closest Typo to me sold out of her in a few days and never got another shipment.

Oh my gosh, I guess I need to check in the forums more often. I've been crazy buying Typo's various Care Bears products over the last two years but I didn't know about these!! It's been a few months since I was last at a physical store and I don't think they're selling them online. Maybe I can take a trip next weekend to see if there's  any on clearance.

(Cotton Kids does have some cute stickers and water bottles online though)
