Am I the only one who loves the eyebrows? I like thick eyebrows in general, but I feel functionally they help with facial expressions. Or maybe it's an orange pony thing! Didn't the G4 applejack randomly have eyebrows, and no one else did?

I wouldn't give a kid a CD player unless it was something they were interested in, since they probably already have a portable music device. CDs still exist for those who don't want to go fully digital..
Music gifts are still possible with subscription services (like spotify), which allow people to listen to whatever they want. It's kind of a better gift then a CD/tape/etc, because they can listen to whatever they want.
I think vinyl would be better for someone /really/ into music.. it's better quality, it scratches the itch for physical, it's displayable.. etc. But, that probably wouldn't be for the average 11 year old.

It'll be interesting to see if Sunny is short for something, or if Hasbro dropped the Sparkle Shine foofoo names.
As mentioned on the last page (though evidently a thread was merged and I’m not sure if your post came before or after that happened), her full name is Sunny Starscout.
I read it at 5AM, I skipped over the first sentence or two. It's still.. not quite foo foo to me. It's like "first name, last name".. kind of like people who have last names that were derived from professions.

Aw, she's much cuter in 3D. It's a shame it doesn't translate to 2D well. ... Not sure why the eye shape changed. It'll be interesting to see if Sunny is short for something, or if Hasbro dropped the Sparkle Shine foofoo names. And I look forward to seeing the pom! I love poms. I assume those are tiny mane6 toys in the background?

banditpony, do you think that they would accept a partial refund?? it'd be nice if they did bc i defintely wasnt expecting all that ick. feeling a bit pressured to wash her now bc I definitely dont want to leave stains or anything 
A good seller would... they'd probably be shocked and embarrassed... But the question would be how do you value that ... eh, who knows. That's why I say just quote them for time -- and even supplies, if you have to buy gloves. Otherwise... thanks to everyone .. I really appreciate the help! I checked and apparently the seller doesnt accept returns. hopefully they make an exception for me if I cant handle this.
What that means is a seller isn't going to accept a return because you changed your mind for no reason. They have to accept a return if an item is not as described... which, you obviously have a good case for. It's a part of "buyer protection". If you completely don't want to deal with it or wash it-- don't. You don't have to. You'll be able to get another pony one day without the nasty gunk. Just ask for a return/refund and send it back as-is. Also, I don't think it would stain right away. I just think it'd be easier to wash now while the gunk is still wet, rather then if it dries and hardens. It's a pet peeve of mine when that happens with dishes.

The more that I look at them -- I agree with whoever said they have Disney Junior vibes.
They look very safe, and very fitting into the preschool visuals. And I think that's why I feel indifferent to them. *shrug*
I also think the art on the pillow looks awkward and stiff, especially highlighted by the fact two of them have pretty much the same face forward expression. It's possible this won't be as bad when animated, but meh.

I think if washing her is too much, then you should just send her back for a full refund/return.
Otherwise, I think the best thing to do is just ask for a refund equivalent to your time of washing it up. And if you went that route, I'd wash it sooner rather then later in case it dried.

Got home, found the thread mentioned earlier. The names were "Work in progress names":
Spoiler "Yes, the names were works in progress, im assuming they’re nicknames. The white one w the pink hair is the cutest IMO, she has a rainbow dash looking lightning bolt and a blue and pink mane. The Izzy one is cute too. She also has like a dual colored streaked mane. I thought it was weird their names were only one word on the concepts but I’m just assuming they have a second word after those names. " Thank you.  ; I just like knowing where info comes from .

Where are those names coming from, it didn't say it on that page. I did a tiny bit of translation, but then there was one character I couldn't see well so stopped.
names aren't from the bedding page, they're just what this person called them. i'd imagine they aren't the official ones... or at least, i hope so.
Oh ok. Eeeeh. yeah, so not official. Where are you grabbing that info from? Anyway. I decided to hunt down a better image so I could look at it one more time. 电影5个人物 Translates to 5 movie characters -- didn't realize that before. :/

i sure wish i didn't have to dig through this place to find G5 info buuuut here's a post i found from january that got the designs right. i swear i got something this time! 
Spoiler "These aren’t the same designs, but they could definitely be nicknames!! Izzy is a long haired unicorn like rarity, with a dual colored mane, colored a bit like twilight in her body, but blue to purple gradient hair. Zipp is a rainbow dash lookalike. Same hair and everything, but white fur, and pink and blue striped hair. Pipp is a smaller Pegasus (not a foal) who’s pink with purple hair, and she has weird wings. They’re not the regular kind of Pegasus wings. And Sunny is an earth pony colored like scootaloo but with longer hair. The two boys look like Big Mac and then the other one is yellow and green? But with that picture it seems like they’ve changed the boy to a girl with that model. Those little toys are the exact designs of the other four girl characters though (the picture where it says “movie characters” not the one with magic mimic and stuff)" toys they're referring to (from the taobao logo reveal): visitors can't see pics , please register or loginthey said they were pretty sure the names were placeholders, also.
What a weird coincidence... 
Does this mean we'll get a Mane 5? I'm excited to see the green/yellow one! I'm liking the Cutie Mark designs of the ponies so far, and they're much more interesting visually than the Mane 6.
Where are those names coming from, it didn't say it on that page.. or did I completely miss it?

:O The post office has lost my incoming IRS letter. of all the things to get lost. It's been over a week since it should have been delivered and our local post office is claiming they never received it.
I've never experienced this. Sometimes mail is delayed (usually by the local post office not delivering that day), but never had anything vanish. Informed Delivery is such a nice thing to have. . .

Hm... I've always drank sparkling water from the can. I guess I'm just used to it because before sparkling water I always drank pop in cans and it's just really convenient.
I've never tried Soda Stream. Is it any good? Does it make unsweetened sparkling water (because that's what I drink)?
One line of flavors for them made by Bubly, so yes... and people make their own natural flavors using juices and stuff. I guess it depends what you like.

Oh. I really have no emotions. I don't think I care one way or another? There's that little icon crown thing that we saw on some of those headers... sooo... visitors can't see pics , please register or loginETA: I think I know what it is. They are not drawn in a style I find cute. But I don't hate them. I'm still excited to see how this style will translate to toys tho'.
