MLP G1 Vinyls Coming Soon

[sd_dreamcrystal]

I think for Glory at least it's probably from the clip art Hasbro sends out.  Much the same way that Rarity sometimes ends up grey on merchandise.

And now I can also see how the toy designs have been affected by that retro clip art.  The hair is very similar.

I bet this means one of the chase figures will be Starshine.  She is used too frequently on retro merch for her to be left out.

I haven't seen any Retro Clipart of Glory

There are several shirts, also a tin and a mug.  She was included in that set of stud earrings.  Target had a shirt featuring Glory on it in the men's section a few years ago.  Its one of my favorite pony shirts for wearing around the house.

Here's a link to zazzle.  There is two different Glory mugs right at the top.

But none of them are purple It's baffling

*shrugs*. It's baffling how Rarity keeps ending up grey, sometimes really dark grey,  and yet it keeps happening.

[Foxtale]

Hmm, I suspected that after noticing Princess Sparkle on one of my retro cups.  I suspect that they didn't specifically choose these characters after all.  They just used the characters that Hasbro has already been using in its retro merch.

I agree, these are the characters turning up on a lot of retro merchandise.  Hasbro probably sends clipart of them to all its licensees.

Foxtale did say they were open to making more waves, so people should email them and let them know their favorite ponies, with a link to their My Little Wiki entry.

He did say they were planning to make more waves. He was really into convincing Hasbro that G1 Ponies are important to us and we want more merch.

I know there are clear pictures out there but I forgot to post the full list of characters to avoid confusion (based on their symbols):

Applejack
Sundance
Lickety Split
Snuzzle
Gusty
Glory
Firefly
Minty
Princess Sparkle
**Mystery Chase Figure

I still want a Bowtie in the next wave. ;p

I think she ended up grey because on the show she has a slight tint of grey.. I guess because of the eyes since there is no bottom line on the eyes of most of the characters

So Hasbro initially doesn't think G1 MLP is important to collectors and fans? Gee I wonder where that came from

[Al-1701]

I wonder if they could be convinced G1 written media (comics and light novels) would not only appease the fans and collectors, but grab the interest of more potential customers.  Really, the G1 ponies are a well Hasbro so needs to tap, as I think they would sell to both the collectors and little kids.

I dunno who this man is,  but I could kiss him for saying that.

I think I will just buy one to support the concept ... (Still think they are weird looking). And cross my fingers and toes that cooler ponies are released later. My favorite ponies have always been later years.

Can you imagine brightglow? *melt*

[Al-1701]

I think they're going to concentrate on the first five years to begin with since they are better known.

I can assume as much, but I can still hope... which is why I'll be crossing fingers and toes. :p

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not, but I'll say it anyways. I've seen a lot of MLP 'fans' hate G1. I look at pictures of G1 ponies and art on Deviant-art, the comments are usually full of hatred and ignorance. They seem to forget no G1, no MLP.

What about asking for International Exclusives? Think big guys. We could finally buy an entire set of Mountain Boys or Seaside Babies or Roller Skating Ponies or Nightlight and Raindrop without selling several organs on the black market!

[LadyMoondancer]

OMG, yes, MOUNTAIN BOYS.  Never enough MOUNTAIN BOY merch!

[Sunset]

I thought about mentioning Mountain boys when I posted on their Facebook page but I was worried that a long list of things might detract from the more immediate concerns like the symbols or fixing colors.

Definitely, if it looks like there will be a second wave, we should mention our favorites.  I'd like to see the TAF babies, too.  That could turn out even cuter than the adults.

I was being mildly sarcastic with the last part of what I said. I do know why but I didn't want to directly say it as my point was kind of obvious.. well I don't know how obvious but my friend got it pretty well.

Anyway, I submitted an email to them about the G1 figures mostly about the two who were the wrong color. But also added my two cents on who I think fans would like to see (which yes I did say Big Brother ponies and on TAF pony)

Is there a way to contact them other then Facebook?
