Articulated Ponies!!!

[TornadoTwist]

I picked up articulated AJ, (wanted free shipping on my amazon order), and FYI she's different than CoCo because her legs are spring loaded! In addition to the knees bending she has a built in kicking gimmick.  I'm 90% Cocos doesn't, I would have remembered that.

Interesting. I know that they are split up in two different sets but I never knew the action ones had an additional gimmick. So if Im right then the sets are like this:
Normal (No extra gimmick)
- Coco Pommel
- Rainbow Dash (Sightseeing)
- Twilight Sparkle

Action ones:
- Rainbow Dash (With Tank)
- Applejack
- Fluttershy

the hinges are like ball joints, they can rotate 360 and they bend back and forth.  Much like other Hasbro action figures, sorta like the Hero Mashers, (though I didn't try to pull them apart)
They don't click or ratchet.  The plastic has a silky surface.

other questions?  She's an xmas present so I won't be "completely" unboxing till later.

I personally think the hind legs should be thicker at the top near the rump, but I see that it would limit movement.

I hope they make lots more of these.

Bwhahhaaaaa!! They look like fun although I do see a lot of "broken" leg poses going on. !!!

seems they are being found in targets.

[otocolobus_manul]

Yep! I found all 6 in my local target the other day.

i want them so bad!!! but i'm not allowed to buy them till after Christmas, and i'm sure they'll be picked over, so i'll have to wait till next year. but it's ok.

It's like a pony mannequin.

wait they're target only??? sigh lets hope they're there when i manage to get to one

[rosierjay]

i don't think they will be target exclusives, i think target is the only place they've showed up so far.

I just saw them in my local Target today and they don't seem to have "Target Exclusive" stickers on them. No luck at TRU or Walmart but they seem to be getting around!

may i ask which ponies you saw at Target.  besides Coco

[Twilight Pink]

may i ask which ponies you saw at Target.  besides Coco

I saw the majority of the mane 6 at mine including Coco

[rosierjay]

only found coco, rainbow dash and twilight.
grabbed coco and dash, but left twilight there for now.
do we know if they will have any unicorns?
and has anyone tried opening one up yet?
i have a few projects on my list before this one so i don't have time to get to it.
if i can't customize them, i'll probably return the two i got. since i only want them to bait.

I have my CoCo opened and will probably open AJ next month.  I really love them.  I'm an odd-ball saying this.. but I wish ALL G4s were jointed like this.  They are fun to pose!  I'll be making a Brags post this week. I'll put a link here when I do.

(my biggest gripe, though it's about al new G4s is that the hair is different... it squeaks when you comb it and goes all frayed so easily, it doesn't flow nicely like G4s a few years ago, I tried to fix CoCos, I'll include that in my Brag.)

It may just be the BJD collector in me talking, but I'm actually totally into these ponies and love the way their joints look! They definitely seem to be a response to Silverbeam's awesome printed bjd ponies, but I guess it just mean's Hasbro's on the up and up. I wasn't planning on collecting any particular G4 set, but I might have to make an exception for these :3

[gabumon]

ya. they're a lot of fun.

here's my brag, where I mostly talk about their hair, but do show some more poses.
