Is anyone else really bored with G4?

[Salli]

So.

I have Minty.
I have Muffin Pony and the others from the newer TRU set.
I have Sunset Shimmer.
I have Wisteria.
I have Mrs. Cake and Twirly treats.
I am waiting to see the new school fillies set.

Are there any other ponies on the horizon????

New characters? Nope...nothing spotted at all outside of the blind bags.

However the Toy Fair is only 3 weeks away so I am sure we will see something [or at least we can hope]. If we see only the same as last year  - i.e. the only new characters in one "Collectors Set" and one or two singles then I am going to prepare for a disappointing 2014/2015 as well

They didn't show Rainbow Power at the last Toy Fair so even if there is nothing new there there might be new stuff. But there haven't been any taobao leaks lately either.

Rainbow Power is just another version of the same characters, so not like they neglected to mention the addition of new characters.

Yes sorry I meant new characters. As the Rainbow line has just been repeats. They also did not show Mrs Cake or Twirly at the show. Its more a general indication for me. If the line does not indicate some variety...and lets face it after goodness knows how many repeat waves now with no new characters, if they dont show a future singles wave with new characters it does not forebode well for the year.

Hopefully last year's lack of new brushables was due to a desire to focus things on Equestria Girls (both on the production and consumer ends); there's still some new EQ stuff coming out but maybe the main line will get some breathing room again. Otherwise... at least the mini sets are getting new molds...

hadn't thought of that. maybe you're right.

[hathorcat]

Ok. I like the idea of EQG distracting attention! I am going to hope thats all it was. *puts hopeful hat back on*

Rainbow Power would be the perfect opportunity to re-release Rainbow Flash... I have one, but I know lots of people are hunting for her. Hasbro's stupid for not observing the highly demanded ponies. People want Fashion Style AJ, people want the Euro Exclusives - they could just remake them, but no.

[RainbowAlicorn999]

I think that if they added more characters and diversity to the brushable line, my little pony could be the biggest toy craze in the world.

Re-releasing Skywishes, Rainbow Flash, Star Swirl, and Non Glimmer-Wings Ploomette within the Americas would be really good for profits for Hasbro. They would not have to get a new copyright, since they have previously been brushables... Tis just a matter of using the same molds as before.

I liked when they had the random ones like Dew Drop Dazzle etc. Rather than the recycled mane 6 over and over again.

Precisely. I was excited about this line because Hasbro said they wouldn't fall into the Bore 7 thing again. Nope.

They've still got to release an awful lot of ponies in Europe too. There's an insane amount of stuff in the US (including merchandise) that the rest of the world just can't get hold of

I agree I see quite a few Skywishes and Ploomette on ebay and Taobao, but no Star Swirl :/ Star Swirl is uber expensive on ebay!!! Irritates the crap outta me knowing I'll never be able to get her :/

Hasbroken should definitely re-release them over here in the USA...

At first I didn't like G4 at all, G3 are my favorites and the G4's are really boring compared to them (not to mention the quality isn't as nice). I had a period of time where I watched the show and began to quite like it so I bought a couple of Pinkie Pie's but honestly my like for it had just died down again. I haven't been keeping up with series 4 of the show and there are very few toys that I actually want. I really hate the Equestria Girls dolls and I think that's what made me start to dislike G4 again (I actually enjoyed the movie though).

I think I'll get all the Build a Bear's (they are the one thing I love about G4), the So Soft Pinkie Pie's and the Funko Pop vinyl Pinkie.  If they go on sale I may get the giant Twilight Sparkle (I love big ponies) and possibly the Fashion Style Princess's, chances are I wont though.

Honestly I really cant wait for G5 to be released, I'd love it if they were similar to the G3's but I think that is kind of unlikely because of how huge the Brony fandom is. But a girl can dream. ^^
