Thanks LunaMoonCustoms1212 and WaterRaven!  I wonder what good LOTR customs are out there...I have a few baits, hm...Moondancer's pose might work for Gandalf...baby pony for the hobbits, I don't have any bait babies though.  Maybe an Uruk-Hai oh, could try and do the Balrog to fight moondancer Gandalf but that's probably beyond my limited ability...

Tell me who else has been seen in the new sculpts??  Enough ponies that we might see them more??

I just dropped in on one of my two walmarts today and found a couple GoHs including Shadowbolts and lot of Spike the Dragon but he was $40!  Ouch!

Heard Shadowbolts has gone as low as $3.x on Amazon...haven't checked back in yet to see how those prices are doing.  At that price it might be worth getting a few to make some customs of the other G4 characters.

I don't mind the new GoH sculpts, I just don't like those sculpts with hair. I love the original brushable mold, and I don't want them to take it away  :(

BTW heres some AWESOME LOTR customs made out of g3's. I might have to try this.

My Walmart had everyone the other day, so I might be tempted for more.  I agree about missing brushable the thing for me is these ponies just look better. I wish they did have brushable hair but since I think G4 ponies look like stunted deer I'll take neat ones where I can find them. :lol:

I find that I like molded hair and brushable...hopefully they do some of the new sculpt with brushable hair.

Some actually like the current brushable mold?  I hadn't thought of that...if it does go away some will be disappointed and that would be sad.  There are a lot of them out there now though...and they did look great animated in the Toycracker.

What I really don't like is molded and brushable on the same pony like the McDonald's ponies tend to have...I completed a half-finished McD G3.5 custom I got in a lot where the molded tail had been cut off, and when she had hair for both mane and tail she looked much better. 

LOTR ponies don't seem off topic to me...I love the bottom two especially!  Aragorn and Legolas....eh, maybe I shouldn't try cuz mine would never look like those.  I'd like to see the whole trilogy re-filmed in ponies now.

Maybe something to do with one of those $4 Shadowbolts would be to chop off its molded hair and put in brushable...hm it's always easy to think of things that would take a long time to do.

If I could make a request in this thread...?
Does anyone have BOTH a GOH Pinkiepie AND a "reboot brushable Pinkie" and could take a photo of their heads side-by side, both on side view/a profile?

I just got in some of the super bargain Amazon figures they had for GOH, like the Cheese/tank for 5 dollars or something.
I haaaaaaaated POP Cheese. But this one of him is so cute! The face is funny and happy and fun. I never thought I would get anything Cheese Sandwich. I actually like the face on the Shadowbolt too, & Dash /tortoise is good as well. I don't see why these heads couldn't have brushable hair installed.

It's been mentioned that "the reboot brushable happy faces (where the mouth is open) are -supposed- to be like the 'more active' GOH faces but I suspect they're not as good looking. I've never seen a reboot brushable in person & I didn't order the GOH Pinkie because I have too much Pinkie stuff already and 0 real desire for more. But, I would be very curious for a side by side comparison.

they are taking so many themes from the early episodes of MLP (like the giant spike, and the shadowbolt), too bad they didn't do this while those episodes were new. Its a little late, Hasbro.  -_-

I picked up Discord the other day to put me over a free shipping threshold, and by gosh he is enormous. Not sure I want to keep him. :|

I got Giant Spike and wow, he is a lot bigger than I thought!  Not that I'm complaining, lol.  Finally something G4 that can also hang out with my G1s without looking out of place.

I know he's supposed to be "magicked up Spike", but I think it's pretty fun pretending that he's Spike's dad.  Or mom!  I might add eyelashes to him . . .

LunaMoonCustoms, I was thiking the same thing.  Shadowbolts are from episode 1.

VioletCLM, I was thinking the same thing.  However, I got Discord for $6 and his price has gone right back up....maybe good eBay fodder.

Lorei Redfern, I hadn't thought of that.  Now I feel I do need giant Spike to accompany my two giant twlights and pack of talking princesses...

Maddie, this sculpt is out with brushable hair, I've seen Rarity's new fashion studio and she has this sculpt and brushable hair so you will have better looking stunted deer to choose from.

MintySocks would you like fries, I mean Chrysalis, with your Spike with lance and shield?  Well you get her anyway.

LadyMoondancer I just got Funko Big Mac at last, and he kinda fits right in with G1s...he's tall enough.  Eyelashes on big Spike??  Coooooool.

Yep, same. But he's $15 with free shipping on eBay, and between eBay and Paypal fees for that size box I can probably only do a little bit better than that if I want my money back. Maybe it's worth waiting until the market is less saturated, but that's a lot of space being taken up in the meantime.

Yeah, Discord is disproportionately large compared to the princesses :\ quite disappointing for a line based entirely on show accuracy. Oh well, I like him regardless.

I don't like his umbrella and his coffee cup and expression don't really fit in with the rest of the line.

Q why won't you play well with others??
