• Molded 4 Pack Finally Found in the USA!

    by
    The Positive: It's finally here!

    The Negative: It's only in states with a store called Meijer! (These in particular were located in Michigan by Saleskital

    $9.99 is a lot better than $21.99 on amazon though!

    Hopefully some of the bigger chains will start picking these up now, assuming they haven't been there all along... but both these and the single ones appearing within 2 days ago is pointing in a really good direction.  We might even get blind bags soon and stop having to import that crap from Germany!

    I want my transparent sparkly Twilight Sparkle!

      What surprises me is that they're accurate.

      I preordered one of these 4 sets from a website called Entertainment Earth. They're supposed to have them in stock next month.

      I just wish that there was a Fluttershy figure in this toy line, and that Applejack had her hat.

      Why is Applejack left out of the 4-pack? And why no Fluttershy?

      I would like to think this means they're planning a second 4-pack with AJ, Fluts, Celestia, and maybe Luna or Applebloom. But they probably aren't.

      I must of been lucky when I bought my 4 pack from eBay, it was only $17.99

      Now hurry up and bring us Pony merchandise FULL-STOP to the UK. Germany and France has it, but yet again poor old England, you know the country which uses the same darn language as America somehow gets it last!!

      huh, guess it pays to live in the midwest when it comes to feeding your pony needs. Maybe some of the midwest bronies would consider acting as middleman for some of the more desperate coastal brony's?

      After I saw this I stayed up all night so I could be the first one to walk in our Big Lots, I found all the ponies but Fluttershy... Awesome, but sad at the same time! Happy Pony Day everybody!

      I picked up these as the singles from Big Lots. Rarity and Pinkie Pie are pretty much show-accurate, though Rarity's hair is painted two-toned rather than a gradient.

      Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, and Applejack's eyes are more traditional G3 MLP style, but that can be easily fixed with a bit of model paint and some patience. The sculptor took some liberties with Twilight Sparkle's bangs.

      Applejack is missing her freckles and hat, and has a two-ponytail mane rather than a single ponytail as in the show. Again, freckles are easily added in with a bit of paint and a hat shouldn't be hard to make or find from another doll set. I actually like the double-ponytail mane though; it makes her hair look accurate regardless of which side you pose her from.

      I had seen these on the shelf at Meijer, and was disappointed in their lack of Fluttershy, but I ponied up and bought them today (even before I saw this post.)

      Dammit, when does this stuff come to Australia? We always get things last; movies, games and now Ponies? Fuck you Britain for putting us on this isolated, monster infested, desert covered land.

      Meijer, eh? That's a Michigan store chain. I'll be visiting Michigan next month.

      I wouldn't mind buying a few sets in the interest of re-selling them to bronies at the store price. I could put them up on eBay; I sell items often enough on there...

      If anyone would seriously want me to pick you up a pony set while I'm in Michigan in May - provided you WILL buy them off me, since I've little money to spend on extra ponies - then go ahead an' speak up. Heck, anyone else with access to a Meijer could probably bestow upon you the same service. Anything for bronies who can't otherwise get ponies, right?

      Why is it only a four pack? Is it that much work to make all six of them and sell them together?

      Fluttershy, where are you?.. Are you going to appear in this toyline?

      (In Russia each figure is available separately appr. $5 per unit. But no Fluttershy, everywhere. Sniff...)
