Spain Comic PVC figures
« on: May 23, 2013, 08:21:17 PM »
Is there a website, or any information on how many & what they looked like? (For the PVC, Bully-like ponies that came with the Spain comic books.) Any info will be helpful! Thanks!

Most of mine are pictured at Sebby's site here: http://sebby6.darc.net/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=1684

A few of the more recent ones are missing as I've been having problems uploading.

There are a LOT of Comics Spain figures. I don't think we can even begin to know how many as a lot have only been seen once. I do have a Comics Spain promotional poster that includes three ponies on it, but I don't think any of  those three have actually been found. They didn't come with Spainish Comic books - the name of the company is actually Comics Spain ;) They make a lot of PVC figures, some of which are licensed, some are original. Most of mine have come from Spain, France or Germany, but I can't be entirely sure exactly where they were sold in the 80s. I had one as a child, but since we holidayed in Spain and France in the right time period, it could have come from there. I do recall other Comics Spain figures being sold in the UK, but not sure about MLP.

Although they don't actually look like specific ponies, I believe all of the symbols do actually relate to a known character from the early years.

If looking at Ahrian's site, the pricing is very out of date now. I typically pay $15-20 each for ones I don't have and have sold duplicates of the more common ones for $8-12 without problem.

I have actually been planning a Comics Spain website for a while, but never got round to starting it. Maybe I should while I have some time! They're one of my favourite parts of my collection, and I've been collating information for a while.

So much want...
Where do you guys tend to find these? I saw some on ebay once, but they were something like $40.00 each!  :blink: That seemed like a bit much.
I'll put something here some time

Ebay is the main place they pop up. Sometimes you might find a member here selling some, but not frequently.

I don't recally seeing any of the Comics Spain figures on ebay for the that price, but I have noticed a lot of the Portuguese keychains/necklaces being listed at that kind of price. They've been sitting there a long time and not selling ;)
