The only problem I see with these ones is knowing that Hasbro always goes the cheap route, those joints could not stand poses very well...

Also, I'm getting Applejack.

I like them because they remind me of bjds. I swear I saw someone working on a homemade Luna that had similar joints.

For those who are unsure about how the joints look, perhaps custom pony wear?

I always said the only thing that would get me back into G4 were nicely articulated ponies, so I'm definitely intrigued. I agree that they look a bit clunky, but still cute. I can't wait for owner pics/reviews to see how well they can pose.

That swan boat is super cute,too.

I'm so torn.  I've been pushing for more brushables, but...  eeeeehhhh...

I think I'll get AJ and Coco, though!  A) I want to support the brushables, and B) I'd love to try and put AJ in an apple-bucking position for display lol.

I'm partial to the argument that [the ribbon brushables] are just being put out to sell their codes in this upcoming mobile app, and once that's over with, they can move on to other characters. Time will tell if it's right or not, of course, but in the meantime these are pretty easy to read as contractual obligation and nothing more.
Well, I lose.

Well they are always going to have some of the Mane 6 since they are the stars of the show. At least there is one new-ish character and hopefully there will be more new regular brushables since they are at least adding newbies to the gimmick lines.

Yeah, the repeat mane 6 again is kind of a downer, but at least this means we can get Starlight without a ribbon, and a cute little bow. Hopefully, though, they can push out some new characters.

I like the idea of them even if the body sculpt seems a little odd.  I won't be getting them but I hope the kids like them.

I wouldn't have liked these as a kid, the joints would have bothered me.

But as an adult I am seeing an opportunity to make a custom Peridot pony (from Steven Universe) or even a robot pony, so bring 'em on, ha ha.

THAT I would get !!

It just dawned on me what the legs look like to me. They make me think of the legs of a crab.  :|

Starlight Glimmer; Aw man it's going to be tough to wait for the EE ver. once the CMM ver. hits stores. I think I'd prefer her without the ribbon though.

More under the spoiler. You kinda get an idea of their range of motion and get a better look at the new head mold on Fluttershy.

Those look painful and freaky.  Just give me more poses that actually like a pony would be in them.

Okay that just looks bad.  Dangit, great idea with a horrible execution is more painful to me than just flat out blandness...

I'm hoping they actually look better when posed right because that seller put them in some really awkward poses.

They will!  Taobao pics are usually not the best.   ^^;
