Oh yay, I'm glad to see that this got an international release.

It came out in April I think, and I know that at least in my town, they are selling these at Barnes and Noble bookstores. I've thought about picking one up, but I can't justify the price at the moment, so I guess I'll just wait until they are marked down in price. Congrats on your new pony! ^^ :frolic:

I saw this a while ago on Amazon...however they advertised it with a picture of actual G1 Firefly so when people ordered it and received that small g3 type pony they weren't happy!

What I imagine happening:
"How are we going to advertise this if we don't have pictures of the toy yet?"
"Just google image search 'Retro MLP Firefly.' They're going to look exactly the same anyway."  XD
I'll put something here some time

I think you may have missed it because the thread was initially wild with our desperate community hope we were going to get what looked like an actual mini Firefly...then we got this little guy instead :P

Good to know they have become a proper worldwide release now :)
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

She was on Amazon. I got two as I was hoping upon hope she would look like a G1 pony. much as I love Remcos I didn't expect her to look like a bad Remco copy so am thinking of letting one go.

UK Amazon has them for £6.00 direct through them, but a few second hand sellers have them a bit cheaper so I am seriously tempted right now, because Firefly!
