I'm in the "They look odd category" here.  The colors of the different parts don't seem to match and the joints don't look good.  I think part of it might be the size.  The joints needed are too big to be inconspicuous on such small ponies.  Articulation is a cool concept, but the actually product isn't visually pleasing to me.

Pretty much my thoughts on it. I'll get Coco, though. :)

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.

Some of the ponies look awfully-buff like "Errr.... You ok there, sugarcube?" but regardless, it's hasbro trying something new (I think they saw the love of MH and other BJDs, so they're seeing if we'll like them mixed with ponies) and with new things come more new ideas to show us! (Still hoping for more boy ponies. I can only imagine how play-time goes for kids with only Shining Armor as the boy pony)

I'll be getting Fluttershy and Coco Pommel when I can afford to do so (Fluttershy for the army, and Coco for the brushable collection)

I'm with you, boy ponies is what I want. They have so many male characters they could do a couple of waves of only boys but hey we know that will never happen. However I digress ....

Articulated ponies!

Now I've seen more pictures I'm a bit more sold on these. I like that they are obviously trying something new at least! And I kind of like that ope mouth head some of them have. I will get fluttershy at least, and the symbol on the leg isn't even as annoying as I though it would be. The only thing I really don't like about these is the short thick neck. It would have been nice if their necks were a little longer.

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.
