EAG International/London Toy Fair 2015
« on: January 22, 2015, 04:21:34 PM »
The last couple of weeks saw my annual visit to the EAG International (a large amusement arcade/fairground trade fair) and The London Toy Fair.  While I don't really follow G4 news anymore (meaning I don't know how much of this is of interest), I tried my best to take pictures for my pony friends. :)

I've made a slideshow on Youtube which can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeBelu3Yi-Y

Unfortunately, security at the Toy Fair has really tightened up and the staff were jumping down my throat at the slightest whiff of a camera so there was a lot that I couldn't photograph, and most of the pictures I did take are not of the best quality.  Better than nothing though, right?

Yay for news! :cheer: Thanks so much for posting! We're still seeing Rainbow Power being advertised, so that gives me hope that the later releases will come along to shelves. Mrs. Cake and her Rainbow Bakery, the giant Sweet Style Rainbow Dash, the Rainbow Neon singles... but only the first wave of four? Even the Fair staff can't get a hold of Rarity/Holly Dash? :cry: Yay for Canterlot Castle playset!!! And is that a POP sized Canterlot Castle displayed on the back of a box? And yet ANOTHER castle with some heart designs on top? A yellow FS pony with blue hair, could be Coco Pommel, but the body is darker and looks closer to Sapphire Shores... FS Pinkie Pie on a big scooter... Angry Trixie? And a transparent white pony with Sweetie Belle's hair colour? Water Cuties Rarity doesn't have that light pink hair colour :lookround: And a POP Big Mac! I might have to break my 'no POP ponies' rule and get him!

I thought the Fashion Style looked like Coco Pommel because of the way her hair was cut, but the colour didn't look right.  Wish I could have got a closer look.

The Rainbow Neons weren't on Hasbro's stand, but I'm not sure whose stand it was.  I had to laugh at the fact there was no Holly Dash even at the fair...the one G4 I really do want for my collection.  Why did I have to choose such a rare one? :P

Odd, the UK is one of the few places that Holly Dash HAS shown up :lol: Looks interesting! I just hope that it being shown here means we'll get them and they won't be doomed to being exclusive to North American stores or just plain never showing up here.

That Trixie kinda looks like maybe she had a design on her eye...maybe she'll be a CMM pony, or come as a doll & pony set?
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.

Yep, it's definitely Trixie at the end.  Looks like one of the Cutie Mark Magic ones with the symbol over the eye.  I thought the pony behind her was Sweetie Drops, but looking back at the pictures now, she looks more pink?

I think the purple-haired pony down and right of Trixie is probably Maud Pie.

Great slideshow, thank you!

I'm so excited for POP BIG MAC! I just recently got my first pop pony and it was more fun than I thought it'd be. I can't wait to scoop him up. Now if only they'd make a brushable of Big Mac already...

I think its a grey unicorn tho with purple hair, I swear I see a horn there. That other pony has to be Coco its a light yellow body with short cut blue.light blue hair thats what she looks like right? That Celestia Canterlot Castle looks pretty cool.

And OMG did I see the mane 6?! (*sarcasm) anyways a POP Big Mac... really now after years of people asking for a brushie one.. lol I wanted to see the Flash doll because I wanted to see if a pony is with him!

I think the purple haired unicorn is regular old Water Cuties Rarity?  (Wow, maybe I know more about G4s than I thought! :P )
