• Crazy Bid War For Fluttershy Mini

    by
    See that 2 inch tall recolor of Rainbow Dash from the European FiM blind bags?  She is currently going for 130 bucks on ebay with 26 bids. 

    That is crazy!

    I think us non collectors are doomed to never have the mane six if we have to compete with this!

    You can find the auction below!

      I guess I shouldn't have traded mine for a Pinkie Pie, which I didn't even get. :(

      I have spent 60 euros already and still don't have A Fluttershy yet, I'm tempted to bid for it.

      I only have Rainbow, Rarity, Twilight, and Pinkie Pie... I seriously need myself an Applejack and Fluttershy. Don't have the money to bid up to $500 on Fluttershy, which is probably where this is going to get to.

      Word on the street (well, ponychan) is that these Blind Bags are starting to show up on American store shelves. And it's easy to feel the contents of the bag. So finding Fluttershy should become easier soon enough.

      ^ PLEASE REMEMBER! ^

      This is a RECOLOR, not the OFFICIAL product! This is unique on its own, and you will definatly not see something like this on shelf stores any time soon.

      Why do you think it's a (custom) recolor?
      It has the card that says Fluttershy.
      Looks like it came out of the bag like this.

      According to the character overview from my blind bag all Pegasus ponies use the same mold. So a Fluttershy does look like RD except for the colors.

      I doubt Fluttershy is very hard to find in one of those bags (once you feel the wings through the bag it's a 1:4 chance) and I really don't understand why anyone would pay more than ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS for this figure.

      No, she really isn't hard to find.
      I found four pieces of her by random chance.
      Its a 1:5 chance if you just buy the Pegasi, you probably forgot about the transparent Rainbow Dash.

      Its fucking moronic to pay that kind of money for one toy.
      For 145$ you can get ~40 Blind bags from my import service on ponychans /toy/

      @Chris

      It IS an official Hasbro toy. It's one of the blindbag toys (similar to the PonyVille Line in the US)

      The reason people call it a "recolor" is because it has the same sculpt as the Rainbow dash figure (so it's the same body shape). That doesn't mean it's a fan-made piece.

      @crazyredemu

      You again? UGH.

      Just joshing.

      Seriously, man, go buy a bunch of blind bags from treehugger or something. You'll get all the poni you could possibly want, most likely including Fluttershy(and possibly Lily Blossom, too, who looks a lot like your fave, Derpy).

      That goes for everyone else considering bidding, too. It doesn't make sense to bid on this.

      I got outbid, I thought 20 bucks was high. Though to honest it's not that accurate so I'm not gonna miss getting this one.

      Sorry, but I just have to pull this joke: I always imagine of this Fluttershy getting a bad haircut day from Rainbow Dash, AKA Dash probably only knows one hair-style without risking a bad trim on a unfamiliar style. (AKA pull that "What if Chrome from Katakyo Hitman Reborn is a barber/hair stylist" one-shot manga page!)

      Anyway, that is one insane bid. :S

      The manufacturer screwed up making Fluttershy, so instead of recycling the duds, they sold them here in Europe?

      Sounds like a plan!

      As far as I'm aware the show hasn't aired here, so the little kids buying these things wouldn't know the difference anyway.

      Whoa someone out bid my $200 wile I was watching Mr Bean...good! I was an idiot for biding that much for something I could get cheaper elsewhere. I still ended up paying 45 for Applejack but that's not as bad

      205.00 bucks this ended at. Oddly enough more seem to be showing up.

      Maybe I have luck yet to add one.

      Those dudes that are bidding these up so high are CRAZY.

      If I'm spending that much on blind bags, I'd rather use it to buy MULTIPLE bags from the Euro Bronies offering to import for us on ponychan

      Errrrn...People? Hello there, I live in Brazil and I've been a fan of MLP for some months now... I've seen those toys selling here in regular stores, I even bought a small rainbow dash for myself (coudn't resist =D) I wonder if I can find that little fluttershy you all are talking about? I could ship to you guys, they aren't expensive at all. (or is that a rare version of the ones I see on the stores? I see is has...oddly...short hair o_o'' And looks like a re-colored version of my rainbow dash.)
