New toys, and white Celestia!

[Zargata]

Few, I am so glad I didn't cave in and buy the pink one! White Celestia, you shall be MINE!

*reads through thread again* 

Oh my gosh.  I am not a big g4 collector (I don't even own all of the mane 6) but there are so many ponies coming out in this set that I want.  My g4 collection is going to grow by leaps and bounds when this all comes out (next fall?)  And TRU will own quite a bit of my wallet.

I'm so excited! Finally some ponies I want to actually buy! I'm just worried about stock, around here there are a lot of people who buy toys just to sell them twice as much online. I really want them and I hope there is enough supply for the demand when they do get released

Zecora! DJ! NIGHTMARE FREAKING MOON. OMG this is so exciting I WANT THEM ALLLLLLL.

Am worried about them being released in Australia, though - does 'TRU exclusive' actually mean 'N. American TRU exclusive'? Better not, I need those ponies lol.

[DazzleKitty]

That Nightmare Moon looks AWESOME!!!! And a white Celestia! I'm glad I never got the pink abomination, haha!

I'll definitely be getting them all. Is that Trixie I see?

I NEVER thought they'd make a Zecora figure. That's neat too!

But my complaint? Fall is TOO long to wait! Ugh! I want them NOW. lol

I know why they have decided to release some of the "background characters" seriously, think about the ammount of customs that have been sold of these "characters" they would be mental not to. Even if they do keep preaching "its aimed at little girls" they have a huge adult fanbase as well. It may not be as big as that of the kiddies, but it does seem to matter some because they seem to have listened & given in to what the fans wanted.

Well, they might be thinking that the little girls / their parents will buy them anyway because they're still pretty ponies and they appear in the show, which is a proven way to sell toys since the early 80s at least. Then again, the "target demographic" might not specifically remember who, say, Trixie is, but they may still want a lovely blue pony (I would!). This way they can still sell to their target audience AND they get their disposable income-possessing, incredibly spendy, fervent adult fanbase to go absolutely nuts and BUY BUY BUY from them as well (and hopefully dip into the apparently limitless amount of money people are willing to spend on customs of these characters).

Honestly, it seems like win-win to me, though I'm, of course, not a marketing dude. White Celestia was a freaking no-brainer though. Seriously. Little girls aren't stupid.

[Ren-Ren]

Fandom craze aside, it just makes sense for the toys they release to be ponies that appear on the show. I remember that lots of us (me included) were complaining that none of the non-mane 6 toys were in the show at all. 

I'm especially ecstatic about Lemon Hearts! Except, OH NO! Her eyes are blue instead of red. The red was something that made her especially stunning.

I'm going to help out people overseas, too! So don't worry everyone!

Hehe (boy it's been forever since I posted here ... I had to find where the old arena went! But the new line makes me so excited. <3)

Kinda really want the Nightmare Moon and Zecora. Dang, just when I was telling myself I was going to declutter my life . . .

[bewilderness]

This is fantastic!!!  200% cooler!  And just when I had decided to stop buying any more G4s for awhile. 

[Malancaiwen]

Yay!
I can't wait for this gitd zecora! I can see lots of glowing fun comming

[DazzleKitty]

Thanks for sharing the pics, squirrels!

I am in LOVE with Trixie. She is the one I am most excited about!

Oh, and those two little flower girl babies are pretty. I may have to purchase that set providing they don't change the colors.
