Oh man...this is disappointing. I was really looking forward to this wave because Lyra is my favourite background pony =/ I hope by the time these hit the UK maybe they'll have addressed the manufacturing flaws >.<
Idly searching for: loose, good condition G4 Blossomforth, Starbeam Twinkle, Plumsweet. TTM Celestia doll's wings Within UK or EU only, please.

I got the Lyras I ordered online in the mail today. D: No sparkle...

Would anyone want to trade sparkly Pinkie for a sparkly Lyra? Or would I be better off just selling pinkie and trying to find a Lyra later?

(and now I have 3 regular Lyras...! Lol.)

I was never concerned with getting the chase figures, or the Funkos really (waiting for Rarity and AJ), but that clear Lyra is gorgeous. I might have to shell out for her.

Got mine today, and I am so disappointed in the quality. Dashie and Bubbles' quality was bad, especially on the display sides...but Fluttershy and Dr. Hooves were fine. THESE are terrible. They have like...wrinkles on their display side faces. I mean, really? Couldn't that be on the OTHER side? They look really terrible. Poor quality. Glad I only paid $9 each.

....the eyes get worse, the light refractions dont even match and there is dirt on the muzzle!!!

... speaking of mismatched eyes, check out Ditzy-Pie!!!

Tiny cutie mark.

Dissapointed in Funko with these two, but to be honest its better than having no Pinkie and no Lyra at all.

I think the eye reflections are not identical on both sides purposely.

I think that Hasbro does eyes and cutie marks way better. The only lacking things on the funko figures in my opinion are the eyes and cutie marks, being very blah. Factory errors don't count. Luckily the very well 3d and detailed manes and tails distract from the lame paint details.

A lot of these always have paint application problems, i have to look and examine so many just to find 1 decent one!

I did get my order from hot topic the other day, i was lucky enough to get the clear Lyra but got a regular pinkie. I even went to hot topic that day and they didn't get any of the chase figures which sucks =(

Very disappointed in these quality issues. :( Do you think they're going to re-release them like they did Rainbow Dash and Ditzy?

Usually I don't complain about the quality- but it is really really terrible with this round!

I ordered an enormous box of Lyras- and every single one of them had serious quality issues!  More than half have tail drips- and ALL of their eyes- have one or both eyes seriously out of alignment (the black line of the eye isn't flush with the white part- but all over).   A couple have smudgy marks like above- where it looks like the pony was moved or touched before it was even dry.

I would agree that the quality of this batch of ponies is even worse than the first set of Rainbow Dash ponies.  I wonder if it was because they were rushed? I know that production was late. 

I am hoping that much like with Dash and Muffin, Funko will do a second release that fixes some of the quality issues.  If that happens I'll definitely want to swap for a fixed Pinkie and fixed Lyra.  I figure I'll make the extra Lyras into customs anyway, so it doesn't matter if their eyes are not perfect. 

I still have a bunch of extra Lyras-  if anyone wants them, they're $11 + the cost of shipping to you :D  (I'm sure I'll get lots of takers after railing about the eyes, lol)

Just received mine :). They are very rough looking kinda hard to find a good one , out of 13 lyras that i ordered and 7 PPies it was very hard to find one with no so much paint or body blemishes , i will also offer the extra one for. 11 dllrs plus shipping fees , will keep them for 3 weeks or so and then return the left overs to the store !  My ordering paid off got 1 glittery PPie :). Now the hunt for glittery lyra begins

OMG, those are terrible! I'd definitely be returning those! There is no excuse for this crappy quality at $16.50 a piece!

Still waiting on mine to get here, I am so worried because customer service goofed on my address. There were issues with me ordering from the site, took me three tries to get it to accept my order, then it blanked out my address except for city and zip on the confirmation. Called customer service to get it fixed and that was a pain because I used paypal to pay for it and that causes issues when you need to adjust something. SO we got that fixed and I gave them my correct address, spelling it out for the lady and when I got the "they have shipped" email, it had the street address misspelled!!! ack!

So now I am not sure if I am going to get them or not!!! I have been waiting, and now I am nervous and will probably call their customer service again.
