SDCC pony revealed!

[Bow Tie]

This is not show accurate! DJ PON3 doesn't have glitter all over her and her cutie mark is backwards and the hair not show accurate at all! Blah blah blah!

[Marigold]

Blah blah blah, lol!

The 10th Anniversary pony is way more awesome than this one. It had to be said.

I was gonna say, "WAIT, WE GOT A 10TH ANNIVERSARY PONY?! OMG WHERE IS SHE? IS SHE THE FAIR EXCLUSIVE?"

And then I remembered... oh, yeah, 20 years ago, huh...

Well at least the 10th anniversary pony wasn't an event exclusive and neither was the 25th anniversary Core 7 Collector set with the motivational words on them. I have hope that there will still be something awesome for the 30th anniversary but it will be something that anyone can get.

But (in my opinion) Gray Bubbles was unique and sold like hotcakes last year because the fans never thought she would see any sort of toy release - this was right after the controversy with her last year.  DJ has already had a brushable toy and will have a Funko figure.  I wanted Gray Bubbles because I thought she would be a one-shot (of course, now she has a Funko and will have a small brushable as well, which is ok with me).  I really like her toy as well with the lovely blonde mane and tail (mine has one of FS Twilight's barettes in).  If I would want a plastic haired DJ, I'd wait for the Funko release.  I have glitter if I felt so compelled to bedazzle her myself. 

I don't think this will sell anywhere near what last year's pony sold.  I'm hearing an overwhelming "meh".

Especially for the cost!  Even casual pony fans wouldn't mind shelling out $20 for a special pony of a popular character.  But $50?? Nope.

He cutie mark is not backwards. That's the way it appeared in the show.

I think she is very pretty and a nice pony to have in a collection for some. I like her but not enough to spend that kind of money on her. I am already looking to buy the talking Princess Twilight Sparkle this year and she is $50 so I am not going after another pony for that much money.

What in the world?  I thought this was the Funko Exclusive pony at first.  This is from Hasbro?  Why is Hasbro doing the same thing as Funko now? 

I don't like her.  This coming from someone who is a huge G4 fan and collects the molded hair Funko toys.  As for people saying "at least it's not one of the main 6", I actually would have vastly preferred it if it was.  A blinged out, glittery Rarity would have been really pretty, even with molded hair.

I used to really like Vinyl Scratch but her design isn't particularly exciting, detailed, or pretty and I'm tired of seeing her represented absolutely everywhere, especially at the expense if my two favorite (and I guess despised by the bronies, judging by the direction of FiM merchandise) main 6 characters, Rarity and Applejack.

This gets a big 'meh' from me.  Kinda glad I'm not going to the fair this year if this is the exclusive for it.

I agree with this.  I think Hasbro failed to take in all of the factors that made last years exclusive so popular.  Many of those reasons do not apply to this years exclusive and especially not at that price point.  Like others have said it might have been really cool if you could hook her up to your iPod and she bobbed her head to the music.  But not for some extra glitter and crystals.

Well it seems like most people aren't interested..... at least the price won't be ridiculously jacked up, and maybe she'll be easier to get for those of us who do want her.

If anyone who's going to the fair and preordered her, but would rather not keep her, I'd be willing to buy her from you.

[Wadatsumi]

oh i wanna do this thing once too!!!:

[Tirac]

Seriously? I can understand the financial gain for Hasbro by kissing up to the bronies.
But that is too big of a price and there's going to be at least three molded hair figures of her in the future.
Plus there's the 30th anniversary thing.
I think that if they did this only with a well known G1 pony such as Firefly, it would have been better
Or made her an MLP player speaker.
