Are there not codes so that you can find specific ones?

If you want to put some effort into it you can get a better idea of which ponies you want (but no guarantees as to which ones you might get) here's a post I made when I got my full box from Toywiz. It's not the Hot Topic box, so I don't know if the show accurate ones are any different.

DISCLAIMER: I can't guarantee the information in this post is going to be consistent across all of the Mystery Minis, this is just my experience with them and I thought I'd share in case someone else wanted to do the same thing and potentially corroborate the information.

I got my box of Mystery Minis from Toywiz yesterday and opened them today. On a hunch I decided to weigh them in the box beforehand, note the weight, and match the identities after opening the boxes.

From heaviest to lightest:

Fluttershy: 77.5g
Pinkie Pie: 75g
Spitfire: 71.9g
DJ Pon-3: 67.8g
Muffin: 66.2g
DJ Pon-3 GitD: 64.8g
Lyra Heartstrings: 64g
Muffin GitD: 63g
Rainbow Dash: 62.5g
Octavia: 61.8g
Sweetie Drops: 61.5g
Dr. Whooves: 56g

As you can see, there's a lot of similar weights in the middle, but if you're looking for Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Spitfire, or Dr. Whooves, there's a significant enough difference that if you're so inclined, if you happen to have a scale, you have a pretty good chance of identifying them, or at least narrowing them down.

I actually expected the GitD ones to be slightly heavier, but they turned out to be the exact opposite. (Of course I don't know if the GitD sets have started showing up in stores anywhere yet, so we're probably stuck on the Hot Topic exclusive ones still.)

(And here's the order they were in the box, though I suspect this will mean very little)

Top row, back left to right: Pinkie Pie, Octavia

Top row, middle left to right: Sweetie Drops, Lyra Heartstrings

Top row, front left to right: Muffin GitD, DJ Pon-3 GitD

Bottom row, back left to right: Fluttershy, Muffin

Bottom row, middle left to right: Dr. Whooves, Rainbow Dash

Bottom row, front left to right: DJ Pon-3, Spitfire

edit: Just for a little bit more information, it looks like there's a slight variance in how much the boxes weighed, but only by about a gram. Comparing the weights of the individual figures outside of the box compared to in the box, the difference was usually between 22g and 23g. So even if you have an accurate scale, it looks like the best you can do for a few is to just narrow your chances. (For example, between Rainbow Dash, Lyra, and the two GitD ones.)

That box order appears to be correct. I grabbed one this morning from a full box in a comic store, the front left one, and got GITD Dizzy Hooves. Hopefully they'll still have the same box when I go back, untouched, so I can get Lyra and mebbe Spitfire....

I also find it hilarious that the mini I got has better quality and painting than my full size SDCC Dizzy and the two full size Lyras the shop had...
Idly searching for: loose, good condition G4 Blossomforth, Starbeam Twinkle, Plumsweet. TTM Celestia doll's wings Within UK or EU only, please.
Will also take in Pretty Pony Club (UK magazine) fakies.

Oooo one more post CupidStrikes!!! DO IT DO IT! :D


Hmm, has anyone figured out the display order for the Hot Topic box, like they have for the regular box? That would be super helpful for those of us trying to track down the colored exclusives...
Thank you Thimble for my amazingly cute avatar!

They doesn't look that bad for me. Just scratches and paint flaws. Looks more like factory rejects.

I sure wouldnt be surprised if they made a GitD wave for the Mini's. And if they made a Glitter mini wave as well.
Thank you so much for the adoptable, Corona! :D

Highly doubt crystal ponies will be the minis because they are they chase versions as standard sizes, but anyways can someone PM me the link where you are finding these guys?

No idea how legitimate or official those two new GitD Funko minis are, but I bought one of each from Ebay last night.
