They're here!!!

The vendor photos are pretty similar to what I got, with a few minor differences:
  • Orange-bodied glimmer wing: Mane pink instead of blue
  • Purple-bodied glimmer wing: Head purple instead of orange
  • Orange-bodied alicorn: Mane yellow instead of red; tail blue
  • Purple-bodied alicorn: Tail yellow instead of orange
  • Pegasi, G3s: No difference.
The glimmer wings both have Fluttershy's cutie mark; the pegasi both have Rainbow Dash's; the alicorns both have Cadance's; I don't recognize the G3 pony at all but there are a lot of G3 ponies out there.

All the ponies have their left legs molded to their bodies and their right legs attached at joints, but unfortunately they can't actually be rotated. All the ponies have cutie marks on only one side, usually their left, but the pegasi have their RD cutie mark on their right (and thus on the side with the detachable legs). Some of the tails are detachable, whereas others, uh, probably would be if I wanted to put more strength into it? Unfortunately the yellow pegasus didn't end up coming with any tail at all.

They're exactly the same height as regular G4 playful ponies, so presumably the same mold, although the wings might be a little wider unless that's just interfigure variation. I don't have any real glimmer wings to compare against. Their legs are hollow. They came in a box, but it looks like just a reused box from something else, no "My Happy Horse" packaging or anything like that.

A lot of them have minor bumps and ridges here and there if you look at them closely, and there's the occasional ink smudge on the backs of ears or something, but overall they're quite presentable except for the constantly mismatched mane/tail colors. A little repainting and they'd be rodeo-ready.

I really do find them interesting. So clearly cast from Hasbro parts but the hair is clearly the fakie makers own creation. Thank you for sharing the extra information and pictures.
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

The two in the back are actually quite cute, I think.

I think they're nice.  Though I wonder if they are that light-fakie plastic...

and look at those G3 Babies!  I've always said G3 babies would make good G4 Stallions!  :3

G3 babies were my best guess too, though again I don't have any to compare to so I was just looking through Strawberry Reef's pose index. They don't feel particularly light, although the manes/tails are surely contributing. The surfaces feel pretty similar to the blindbag fakies.

Multi-colored hair! So cool. Besides the Raricorn with awesome hair colors, I especially like the yellow girl with the dark blue hair... something about those shades just works well together. And more G3 babies for your hypothetical collections!

Personally I'm a compulsive thread reviver, and they're pretty much exactly the same topic, so I'd say yes and I could put a link in the first post to the opener for the second thread. But you know the rules/policies on thread revival/reopening here better than I do, so I defer.
