I love the picture with Baby Firefly. Anyone has a G2 baby and could do a comparison pic as well...?

My two came today though the one has a rub on her symbol right out of the box so Amazon is going to send me a replacement. Other than that, I'm happy she was released!

Finally got mine today and :huh: . It just doesn't look right. Hopefully they will correct the faults on others they make  (though it's a sure bet Starshine wold look the same way).

I am sad because I was looking forward to hunting them down in stores and buying them to show Hasbro how we want more G1... but not when the barest effort was made towards quality. 

I wish they had licensed Funko for this...  they would have at least made the mold correctly.  :(  The Funko vinyls have minor issues but it's sure not "this pony looks like a fakie with encephalitis".

But she'd have been standing upright with all four hooves placed evenly apart, staring directly ahead with eyes half closed.

I wouldn't really want a funko... Has funko even done a Retro mlp with brushable hair yet? I think that is what they wanted to keep in mind as well when making a mini of the original Firefly =/

Ehhh, I'm happy that it's at least a squishy plastic pony instead of hard vinyl...

I honestly just can't decide if I want her or not. Just that head, everything would be okay if it weren't for that head..

Ooh, I'm torn... I like the cheesy fakie look, but it is jarring to see her looking so close to being in her right proportions but having a massive head. But she's so tiny, and I love to collect tiny ponies, and I don't have a tiny Firefly yet. Hmmm...

Does any kind soul want to take a comparison pic of her next to a Ponyville or Dolly Mix pony?
I'll put something here some time

If it helps- because she's so little- she's a bit cuter in person than the large blown-up pictures of her suggest-

HOWEVER cute it might look.  I can see why people are pissed off.  The photo that the company gave Amazon, Walmart and several other companies shows a different product than what they did.  They didn't even come CLOSE to making the product look the same as what was photographed.
