The Luggage Pony Set HATH ARRIVED

(Luna Mode: Deactivate)  For all the collectors out there, or those that are dying for some pony luggage, a new set has started popping up.  Our bros over at Sci-fi Genre sent these hasbro-supplied images over from their new stock.  I haven't dug around stores of pony in a while, so I'm not too sure how widely available they are.

All images/ponies can be found after the break!

hmm, Baggage. Interesting theme...

agentfire said...

the great and powerful trixie will not be amazed when she find that hasbro has not made a toy of her.

coolpowers said...

Their little pet pals look like Pokemon.

(When I first posted this I said "like like Pokemon". Maybe they're REALLY into Pokemon)

galapagois said...

I'd like to know why they can't find a way to make the toys look more like the actual show. I get that the toys represent the traditional portrayal that people are used to, but still, i'd actually probably buy some if they looked as awesome as the show's art style.

But maybe that's just me.

CTVulpin said...

Heh, none of the pets are right and Fluttershy gets TWO. THAT at least I can understand.

fatalshademlpa said...

Fluttershy comes with conjoined chipmunks!

mattwhite924 said...

I just want molded hair versions of Dash, Fluttershy, and Rarity. Is that so much to ask?

Kinrah said...

Those ones have been in the UK for ages. I have luggage Rarity, Dash and Fluttershy.

Yellow 13 said...

So, they strap it to their back leg? Makes sense. Saddle bags seem like a lot less of a hassle.

Kinrah said...

Oh yes, these are also the ones which are attached to the packaging with sellotape. Yup, sellotape around their manes and tails too.

FlimboStache said...

These ponies are so cool that they have pictures of THEMSELVES on their luggage.

InstantDeath said...

This isn't new? D:
I got one of these for my birthday 8 days ago, I thought they were commonplace. (This is in Nova Scotia, Canada)

Twitchy.717043 said...

My sister got me the fluttershy one of that set. She's 10 and I'm 22... needless to say, BEST GIFT EVER!

Pawn Heart said...

@CTVulpin ...conjoined twins, by the looks of it.

These are available in the UK already (Toys R Us, at least).

pauliewx said...

These have been out around here for a few weeks now XP I got Applejack, Rarity, Pinkie and Dash. The duck's body feels like it's made of a different plastic, but mabye that's just me.

Son Gopaul said...

These are already out in the UK. Or is it a new batch?

ZeroG said...

Guys....The UK has had these since LAST NOVEMBER!

JitteryJoe said...

@galapagois

Yeah, I agree, I'd love to see some show-accurate stuff. Can't be that difficult, I imagine.

Also, the suitcases are cuffed to their hooves... what on earth are they transporting?! Diamonds? Equestrian Missile Codes? Elwood's Harmonica?!

FreedomChannelBA said...

I like the stickers! Also the duck made me laugh.

terrycloth said...

Are those passports with pictures of their house?

Pawn Heart said...

@ZeroG and yet Boomerang still haven't finished showing season one yet. Its a queer world, sometimes.

Pawn Heart said...

@JitteryJoe Well, it best be nothing breakable at least! Unless she fancies dragging her rear leg on the floor, AJ's gonna have some bruised produce.

Surprise Pie-Anderson said...

Luggage? Where are they all going?

Kinrah said...

@Pawn Heart

It seems their reasoning is that somehow they think each season is 13 episodes long, so while they're broadcasting episodes 14 - 26 of S1, they think they're broadcasting S2.

A friend of mine sent a questioning email a month ago. He got no reply.

Mike said...

@A sleepy brony

Yeah: if anything, she should have a turtle.

MyBoyJ said...

Those suitcases cuffed to their legs look like prison ball and chains.

Mike said...

@Mike
*tortoise

...whoops, now I'm doing it.

Pawn Heart said...

@Kinrah If they'd decided split it for DVD release (a la the more recent UK Family Guy DVDs), I'd have chalked it up to cynicism... but there seems to be no direct advantage in calling the new run "Season Two" on telly... I dunno. They probably just ordered a half-series batch or something.

MyBoyJ said...

@Mike

Should we sing about it again?

Copper Plate said...

What the hell is that...thing (Turtwig?) with Applejack?

Pawn Heart said...

RD's suitcase image is covered up. Is it a shipping image? And seeing as she's travelling... SHIPPING's probably TOO EXPENSIVE! ... GEDDIT?! ...tough crowd.

KTS said...

Why does Pinkie have a hedgehog?

Onipolice said...

@galapagois
I completely agree with you. Ha ha, you almost get the feeling they had a warehouse full of these left over from the defunct older seasons and just decided to slap them in new packaging.

MyBoyJ said...

I don't really care for these, they make even less sense than the older ones with the saddles and carts. Also, I really don't need stickers to go with my plastic ponies. I'll need to pick up Pinkie and Fluttershy to complete my collection of the Mane 6 before they get replaced by these.

I suppose the travel theme with stickers appeals more to the target demographic than us.

On a side note, what am I going to do with the two birds, a dog, and a squirrel that I already got with the four I have?

Rekiara said...

I haven't actually seen these in my area.

Then again, my shopping has been 'Do they have blindbags on the shelf? No? Come back later', so I can't say I've actually looked.

Are they the same size as the basic toys?

Mike said...

@MyBoyJ
Hmm... Nah.

btw what's up with this:
@Son Gopaul
@ZeroG
@pauliewx
@InstantDeath
@Kinrah
@forgotten sin

Where'd the apparent mixup come from? ...troll senses tingling.
lol

Masquerade said...

What the duck?
Why is everything so incorrect?!

Loneheart said...

I bought one of these like 2 weeks ago at Zellers!

Amby said...

@terrycloth
They are not passports, but tickets to ride Pinkie Pie's train!

These have been available in Canada for over a month. I picked up some of them a couple of weeks ago.

Lunaeria said...

These have been in Scotland for a little while now.
Recently picked up the Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, Twilight Sparkle and Rarity versions of these. (Already had the pet versions of Fluttershy and Applejack.)

Vipera said...

@fatalshademlpa
I laughed WAAAAAY to hard at that.

Got Derp said...

Hasbro, Y U NO MARKET TO BRONIES YET???!!!
but seriously, when they do, all my bits

sonic55514 said...

so many problems with these when it comes to how they look... colors and everything

Rebecca Gunn said...

Bit late on this one hey guys?

Luggage Ponies have been in UK since just before Christmas at least, I'm actually sick of seeing luggage mane 6 toys XD (though still need to get Rarity...)

Seems the luggage is here to stay as part of the main range, as the next wave is new ponies with luggage too. Likely will be that way till the "Wedding" event happens I imagine

Chivahn said...

All I want is a gorram fashion Applejack. I have ALL THE OTHER fashion ponies and not having a complete set is driving me nuts. Can't find ANYWHERE :(

James Corck said...

These showed up`in Spain too, just a few days ago. It looks like they released the toys pretty much at the same time >_>

This is the first time Equestria Daily show cases a toy that I already knew of its existence. That's unsual.

Zenn said...

is it just me or does AJ have a mutated turtwig?

Ki said...

Eh, these toys are pretty "show-accurate". I don't get why people need to complain about it every single toy thread. Is it just the fact that they got brushable manes? Than style them, it's not that hard. Also, kids like to actually play with their toys. Brushable manes are fun.

Or is it the animals? Frankly i'm glad they mix up the animals. They keep re-releasing the main characters in the same pose. At least you get a different animal with every release.

Ismaldi4ever said...

Ironically the first three ponies there I own.

coldshoulder said...

me and my brother totally picked up the luggage fluttershy and pinkie pie last Friday at my local wal-mart. as well as the talking spike plushy thing that is actually ridiculously adorable.

Bunny said...

They are pretty cute, but the animals seem off. Lol Well I supose that flutershy could have all the animals if your setting up a display with her.

Unknown said...

yeah i also picked these up about3 weeks ago - but i figured you guys already knew about them XD - being any news i send in seems to be ignored (or its old news) - much like the Pony Valentines - i picked up a glittery set that came with a set of 35 stickers as well - but again never heard anything back from the mods here so i assumed someone else had already sent them in... oh well

Woof Hooves said...

these have been spoted over the past week at various wallmarts in oregon....now if only i could find more kiosk ponys!!!

BakedBad said...

Another release and Apple Jack still doesn't get her hat and Rainbow still has a backwards cutie mark?

Come Hasbro you need to fix this already. I want buy these two to finish my Mane Six set, but not in their currently incomplete or flawed forms.

dw1482 said...

They've been at the wal-mart I work at for several weeks, in Canada.
Still no blind bags though.

Present Perfect said...

Pinkie gets a pink hedgehog! :D It's so cute! (And the only pet that isn't a horrible abomination. Well, the duck's okay...)

Why do I like these.

Michelle said...

OLD NEWS IS OLD. I've had these for months.

Fogpelt said...

I got the Rarity and Twi, put em up on my shelf with my other ponies from past sets (RD, FS , AJ and blossomforth) All I need now is a Pinkie

BeastialPony said...

Why do they all have such random animals? Aside from the hair, they all actually do look really close to their cartoon counterparts. The only ones that the hair really makes a difference to me would be the Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle ponies.
Rainbow Dash with hair longer than her body just looks weird. And Twilight Sparkle needs bangs.
Seriously. She looks so weird without bangs!

And on a related note, it looks like Rarity has a pet Breezy. What happened to Spike? lol.

Laura said...

@galapagois

I think they look as close as a plastic toy can reasonably get. Remember, the toys have to hold up to regular handling by small children, AND be inexpensive. The spindly features of the show ponies would be expensive to produce, and would break easily during rough play. The current toy design is a very nice compromise, and is DEFINITELY a lot leaner than my old G1 ponies.


That said, you can always boil-perm your ponies' manes to look more like the show ponies. :3

Laura said...

@Amby

...Pinkie Pie needs tickets to ride her own train?!

Amby said...

@Laura
Hey, it is Pinkie we are talking about. It would not surprise me. :3 (Also, I am sure you were just teasing, but now that I am thinking about it, Sweetie Belle and Fluttershy also have train cars, so possibly the tickets could be redeemed for ice cream or vet services?)

Ropera said...

I find it sad that I didn't recognize that first pony was Twilight until I look at her suitcase.Her color is so bright that I can hardly see her cutie mark.I don't know if it's the lighting but she looks more pink than purple.

They're still cute though.

Joe said...

HASBRO
ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
Y U NO MAKE GOOD TOYS

Seriously, none of these remotely resemble the show's art style at all. Especially the eyes. It's like they're PURPOSEFULLY trying to model them after G3 or something.

If they'd just make them show accurate, they'd get all my money.

Drew said...

Why does Applejack have a Pokemon?

Distant Horizon said...

The Wal*Mart in Bradford, Ontario, Canada has ALL OF THESE. Lots of Rarities, Fluttershies, and Pinkies.

Evil_Spike said...

Er, that's not Twilight Sparkle. I don't know which pony it is, but it isn't Twilight Sparkle.

Starlight said...

The toymakers choose the weirdest pets for the characters. o_O

Draik said...

...why does Applejack have a pink Turtwig?

Don't Call Me Brony (Please) said...

Nothing like going on a fun vacation with your luggage shackled to your leg.

You know, I'd almost like to see this show up on the TV show, if only to see the characters start bitching about how ridiculous it looks.

Don't Call Me Brony (Please) said...

Oh, my God, I just realized. Fluttershy has a monstrous conjoined rodent as a pet!

Quackers said...

Old news is old.

Also if you don't like toys, leave.

Solar Phoenix said...

Hey, has anyone paid attention to what's actually on the stickers?

Twilight: Stickers of Canterlot and the library. Makes sense, she's related to both of these locations. And then there's Sweet Apple Acre's barn.

Pinkie: Canterlot, Carousel Boutique, and SAA's barn. Again. This character has nothing to do with any of these locations.

Rainbow: More Canterlot and APPLEJACK?!?! Well, there you have it. AppleDash is now canon.

Fluttershy: Canterlot and the barn, again, as well as the library. I guess they can all have Canterlot since it is the capital of their nation, but why does the barn appear so many times?

Rarity: More Canterlot, but at least they were kind enough to give her Carousel - IS THAT APPLEJACK AGAIN?!?!

Applejack: WHY DID THEY PUT HER BARN ON NEARLY EVERY CHARACTER'S SHEET EXCEPT FOR THE PONY IT ACTUALLY BELONGS TO?

ultra8 said...

I may get the AJ just for the pink Turtwig, not sure about Fluttershy with the Siamese Chipmunks.

ultra8 said...

@mattwhite924

I hear you. Throw in a Nightmare Moon and we can finally have a set to complement the first set.

Teilzeitbernd said...

These ponies look like our beloved tyrannical overlord Princess Celestia put them in ball and chain.

Brendan_Boyle said...

Got the Dashie as a gift from some of my friends ages ago, so please be jealous or something. Also, who is that duck, I really want to know.

Dawoc said...

Normally don't comment on threads like this, but does the luggage remind anyone else of a ball and chains?

Lilly said...

These have been in the UK for about 2 months. Blindbags too have been in the UK for about a month now [even in tamworth which is impossibley unknown.]

Jedimom said...

Poor shackled ponies...

Jophser said...

LOL Pinkie Pie Have A Pink Hedgehog! Cool Toys.

Chaoyll said...

Equestria Daily is getting really slow on merch updates, huh...

He has made kits that you can use on your ponies to replace the brush-able hair. They are sculpted, and look exactly like the show style.

PaleoClipper said...

Haven't seen these in the USA

Xo Xo said...

I have all 6 of these!!!
