Yes, but then on the other hand, the majority of plushes BaB sells are not recognizable characters.  If kids bought only recognizable characters then I would imagine that BaB wouldn't have 2 or 3 times as many generic plushes to licensed plushes.

I dunno, last time I went, the majority of their bears were licensed characters, or based on them, and the majority of clothing is also licensed - Disney princesses, Star Wars, etc, plus all the outfits unique to the limited edition licensed characters. I don't know if this varies from store to store, though I recall a few years ago that it was pretty much entirely generic toys. From memory, last time I visited my nearest BAB, I think they had maybe a quarter original toys to three quarters licensed characters. Online it's probably a bit different as they carry the full range of their original toys (including a very gorgeous dragon I'm forever tempted by).

I do think Build-A-Bear could be convinced to make G1 characters, though, as they're very aware of how well the G4 ponies are selling to collectors as well as children. So it might just be a case of convincing Hasbro.
Idly searching for: loose, good condition G4 Blossomforth, Starbeam Twinkle, Plumsweet. TTM Celestia doll's wings Within UK or EU only, please.
Will also take in Pretty Pony Club (UK magazine) fakies.

I would think either Sunset Shimmer or one of the fan favorite background Ponies, like Lyra or Muffin or DJ. Interesting to see so many think Big Mac is a plausible choice. :) That would be cool!

I think Sunset Shimmer is prolly the most plausible, I could see them making Discord, too. I'll be *very* surprised if we don't get Ditzy sometime.

Personally I'd love them to make Chrysalis, but I doubt that they will ^^; Lyra and/or Bon Bon would be lovely, same with Vinyl Scratch. (Just as long as none of them are online exclusives >___>)

I'd also love Small Fry (I think that's the name?) BaBs of Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon and Babs Seed, especially if Babs had her symbol! <3

It has recently occurred to me that if they make Big Mac he will most likely be the online exclusive.  They will of course make his yoke/harness which will come with him, raising the price.  Just like Zecora and her jewelry and Shining Armor and his jacket.

I completely agree - Sunset Shimmer seems the most likely option. And Big Mac would be amazing!!!

However I would not be surprised, and would be disappointed, to see DJ Pon-3 get yet another release.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:
Loa is my love god!
I love Loa more than PonyLady!

DJ Pon-3 would be amazing for me :P I love music, techno being one of my top music faves, and DJ is the "Dubstep pony ",so, it'll pretty mush be a perfect match for me!  :lol:
Oh no!

I collect DJ Pon3 items so I would love a BAB of her. But I'd rather see other characters first, like Sunset Shimmer.

This is kind of random but I'd love to see Blossomforth? She has a super pretty design! I think what I'd love most of all is a BaBW Chrysalis, but that seems very unlikely.

Any guesses on when the next ones might come out?  I'm hoping before mid July since I have some points to spend.  It does seem that they are being released every 4 months or so.  Once in the spring, once in  summer, and once right before Christmas.  That seems to be the pattern.
