Pony Corral / Update On The G1 Action Vinyls!
« on: June 15, 2016, 07:02:04 PM »
So it's been a while and the original thread on this has sunk into the back pages, here's what i am talking about for the unaware:
visitors can't see pics , please register or login


These are MLP Action Vinyls (the above are prototypes from the Toy Fair) from the company The Loyal Subjects. They will be in blind boxes and are about 3-4 inches tall with articulation. There will probably be a chase figure or two but i can't remember if that was confirmed.
The prototypes are subject to change so they may not look the same as the picture above anymore.

(There was more info on the old thread, http://mlparena.com/index.php?topic=376450.0
It's a big thread, but there was a bunch of info at the time of the toy fair earlier this year. Keep in mind TLS might have changed some things since it has been a few months.)

These were announced some months back and I was keeping an eye on their facebook for any more info. None appeared.

So I decided to message them on facebook a few days ago. I asked a few questions: Are these ponies still being worked on? When will they be released? And the final was because I was curious: Why did TLS decide to pick up on the g1 license when it seems a lot of their other toylines were traditionally 'for boys'? (TMNT and Transformers were what primarily came to mind at the time)

Here's the reply

Hi -Name-,

Yes, we are indeed still coming out with My Little Pony Action Vinyls, and are hoping to have them out by the end of this Summer.  Trust that we're looking forward to them too :)

We decided to pick up the license, because there's a ton of G1 collectors out there who need something fresh to add to their collections!  Plus, they're so cute!

Thanks again for the support, and I hope we can continue to earn it!

All the best,
TLS

I thought that was super cool so I wanted to let others know.
Also I'm personally hyped that they'll be released in the relatively near future!

Customs / Customizing Questions (On Hair and Sealants)
« on: December 04, 2015, 09:55:52 PM »
Heya,
I was wondering about the best places to get genuine nylon hair/ MLP nylon that ships relatively quick? I'd love to order from DH, but a lot of their colors are sold out. And RetrodollUS is also an option, but the majority of the colors are pre-orders that will evidently take at least a month to arrive.

I'm getting my first bait lot on Monday, and I am really excited to fix them up. A number of them need new hair, and I am hoping to get started as soon as I can, so I was wondering if there was another place I could order from? Or perhaps even buy from someone here?
(And I can get from retrodollUS if needed, but i wanted to check first.)

Also! I am going to be experimenting on some of the baity baits. I was thinking of coloring and drawing on ponies with watercolor pencils and pastels. Not sure if anyone's done that before, or if it will work at all. But since I don't like working with paints much, I thought I'd give it a go.

Though, I am wondering if G1s (and all the gens, really) will react poorly to Mr. Super Clear? That's what I am planning on for my sealant and primer.

Thanks!

Introductions / Hello!
« on: June 25, 2015, 12:11:53 PM »
Hello, I am Starlight, I am happy to have found this site as it seems to have a lot of good resources and people.
I am entirely new to Pony collecting, I have a few G4 things like the third series set of fashems and some Pinkie Pie plush. My fave G4 ponies are Twilight Sparkle and Pinkie Pie at this point.
I have also made the very recent discovery that G1 would be fun to collect and care for. (I am going to blame my dear friend Gustybv for this eheh.)
I get my first g1 today hopefully, a SkyRocket! Quite looking forward to it.

I used to collect pokemon merch avidly, but have since lost interest over the years. I have always been fond of collecting things though, so I am hoping that I can attain many pretty ponies for myself. There's also something nice about owning and taking proper care of a long out of production piece of history like G1s.

I am an artist, and a hopeful writer as well.

Hope to make friends with everyone here, and I hope to learn how to restore less than top shape G1s too.
Have a good one fellow pony lovers. :3
