Something Seems Off About Luna...
« on: June 10, 2012, 06:57:34 AM »
Can you spot it?

I pulled her out of her box this morning and the fist thing I noticed was that she wasn't packaged well. She just kind of slipped out and the plastic holding her hair to her leg just fell off. Then I notices her wings are super weird!

Here is her comparison to Tinsle Luna:

Here she is with the new Celestia:

Here is a shot of how they are attached. Just slightly different than normal

Anyone else see this before?  They don't seem to be bent like that from being laid on or anything... They appear to be warped that way from the factory.

Wow, it's weird that they are warped when she comes packaged the same as her other counterparts there (But I guess if she was packaged badly it could happen, and obviously did). It really looks awesome, though! Having the wings slightly more raised like that looks very regal. I love it!

They looks a bit warped. Probably why she didn't fit in the packaging right. I wonder how they didn't catch that.

If you want you could send an email to Hasbro with pictures of what it wrong. From what I've seen on here they are usually pretty good about giving replacements. The only issue is you may not get another FS Luna, but you are supposed to get a pony of similar value.

I am hoping this is a prototype and not a factory error, the curved wings look good I think!

I actually really like it too. I don't know why, but she almost feels angelic with the wings that way. I may send Hasbro an email about her but I don't want to send her back!  Lol she's so cool with warped wings.

That would be cool if she was a prototype though!  They are neat wings.

I do really like the way they curve, but I think it's just packaging that did that.  :\

Tokibear--I only have one other fashion style, so I didn't see the difference automatically...but my Luna has the same thing. The walmart I got her from is already out of Luna and only has one Pinklestia the Second, so can't compare to the other ones, but maybe this is just a first run issue or an attempt for Hasbro to save some plastic/time.

There were a few flaws on mine that weren't evident when I bought her which is why I'm thinking this might just be a "first run" thing. She's adorable, still.  :lol:

I really like that wing style better than the wider ones! It seems more pegasus-y...

Everyone needs to check their new Lunas now - to see if its a pattern!
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

My factory error Luna has similar wings, they were curved the same way so they maybe changed the mould? Otherwise they may just store the ponies oddly. :s
