Between Ponychan and MLP Arena, a bunch of new merch has popped up, primarily from that Taobao site. In this new wave of stuff you can find a bunch of these new keychain versions of the blindbag ponies (Though some of them are new ponies altogether), along with a brushable Celestia, and fashion style Rainbow Dash. Too bad Celestia is STILL PINK!
They even have a papercraft line coming out, though I'm pretty sure Kna has us covered with that!
It's a shame that the molded set supposedly didn't do too well. Brushable is neat and all, but having the realistic Rainbow Dash haircut out of the box would be amazing. Thanks to Angela for the heads up on all of this.

ReplyDeleteTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYS!
ReplyDeleteA little part of me just died.
ReplyDeleteDamnit anon I hate you >.<
ReplyDeleteCYRSTAL RARITY!!!!!!!!! must add to my pinkie pie crystal pony
ReplyDeleteShe wants to look amazing? Why does she look like she fell into a laundry basket?
ReplyDeleteI think that Rainbow Dash toy just nuked my eyeballs.
ReplyDeleteIm sure theres some way to spraypaint Cellestia white
ReplyDeleteI don't understand what's all the fuss about Celestia being pink, ok I gotta agree this might bit too dark of a pink, but she IS pink in the sow, just a very light shade, but in some episode the pink color is more than obvious(also her outline is dark pink) the only "white" ponies Ive seen are the royal guards (grey outline) even rarity is a very light grey(grey outline) yet not pure white. I even tried picking my colors for a fanart directly from screenshots of the episode and I never got something close to white(except for the eyes) anyway I might try to get that fluttershy.....yay
ReplyDeleteThat crystal Rarity looks sexy, she would look even better chilling with my crystal Pinkie and Rainbow Dash.
ReplyDeleteRAINBOW DASH ALWAYS DRESSES IN-
ReplyDeleteWait. No.
That rarity... I'm not even that fond of her and I want that!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a thrift store just threw up on poor Dash.
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash, what has Hasbro done to you O_O
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash wants to look like a dollar store tramp for the air stunt show! Can you help her?
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash is an athlete. The pony equivalent of both a track runner and a pilot.
ReplyDeleteWHY THE FUCK IS SHE STILL DRESSING IN STYLE, HASBRO?!
First!
ReplyDeleteYes, a new 6" pony to mod! I hate trying to mod this tiny ponies, more trouble then it's worth.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteNot even close, and people that post "First" are sad little people.
That's the joke.
ReplyDeleteYup. RD there definitely needs help from Rarity right now. lol
ReplyDeletePapercraft line is interesting, but with Kna, pretty much covered on that one.
That's a pretty nice papercraft but DEAR LORD THAT RAINBOW DASH.
ReplyDeleteYay Keychain ponies :D
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash always likes to dress in style, but instead biffs it, and crashes right into in her rainbow waterfall.
ReplyDeleteCrystal Rarity, and new papercraft? Nice.
ReplyDeleteAlmost makes up for the naked, pink Celestia.
Woah. That fashion is about 20% uncool.
ReplyDeleteThe crystal Rarity seems interesting, but I can't stop imagining that her hair is one of those powdered wigs.
ReplyDeletethe fluttershy papercraft is available here, btw: http://paper-replika.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=5609:fluttershy-my-little-pony-papercraft&catid=131:anime-cartoon&Itemid=202828
ReplyDeleteand a rainbow dash one made by the same person: http://paper-replika.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=5602:rainbow-dash-my-little-pony-papercraft&catid=131:anime-cartoon&Itemid=202828
No mention at all of the playset images I sent in? *sads*
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash likes to dress in style. They didn't say what kind.
ReplyDeleteThat brushable hair makes Celestia look like white Nightmare Moon.
ReplyDeleteHINT HINT HINT.
Oh wait, what I just wrote? PINK Nightmare Moon.
ReplyDeleteI wan't one of those key chains
ReplyDelete-Sees Rainbow Dash figure-
ReplyDeleteRAINBOW DASH ALWAYS DRESSES IN STYLE
That Rainbow Dash outfit is absolutely ghastly. Rarity would have a fit.
ReplyDeleteAh, I've waited so long to find out of there being a Fashion style Rainbow Dash!
ReplyDelete>Get it
>Remove all that shit off her.
>Fix up her hair
???????
Profit!!
I mistook dash first for photo finish, then zecora before I realized the horrible truth of her identity.
ReplyDeleteNononono. THIS is bad.
ReplyDeleteThis ... travesty (No offence against the very hot looking travestites out there) ... of a Rainbow Dash!
ReplyDeleteShe looks like she is going to the CSD in Manehattan.
keychains? bah. i've been MAKING those out of pocket ponies for months, way easier than trying to hunt down which store might end up carrying those.
ReplyDeleteand dressed up dash looks a little excessive, but ALL the pocket ponies when covered with all their accessories look a little excessive, so i'm not that upset. just means she'll only have the shoes and glasses on when i set her up out of the box.
RAINBOW DASH ALWAYS DRESSES IN STYLE
ReplyDeleteI hope she's just going to prank Rarity by wearing... this.
But a real cape would probably look cool for stunt flying. (Until she gets her wings caught in it and crashes... again)
Wait... there will be official papercrafts?
ReplyDeleteI think this is merchandise targeted at an older audience (bronies). If I see one I'll get it. Fluttershy looks adorable.
Wow, I am actually sort of stunned that Hasbro didn't put Rainbow Dash in a flowing gown. Stunned but happy. Love the sunglasses and the Mercury shoes.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the brushables because they are most like to the ponies of my childhood. Brushable Celestia would be cool, but also not digging the pink. How have they not fixed this by now, lazy I swear.
ReplyDeleteI actually got brave and gave my rainbow dash and a couple other ponies haircuts to make them look more as they should Still need to figure out how to style them a bit better but overall happy with the results:

Pinkestia?! Not again!
ReplyDeleteEr... what's wrong with Rainbow Dash?
ReplyDeleteI MUST HAVE THAT PAPERCRAFT FLUTTERSHY!
ReplyDelete@rabid-turtle
ReplyDeleteWhoa, those are awesome. My favorite is Pinkie Pie though. Look at that floofy hair!
The G3.5 song!! It's in my head!!
ReplyDeleteRainbow dash... dresses in style... always... Rainbow dash... dresses in style... always...
Rainbow dash... dresses in style... always...
Rainbow dash... dresses in style... always...
Just seeing that Rainbow Dash doll reminds me of the outfits Rarity made in "Suited For Success"
ReplyDeleteThe Rainbow Dash one has me laughing uncontrollably. It's like they took every single accessory they could find and then added more.
ReplyDeleteAlways Dresses in Style. ;)
RainbowDash what have they done to you. Thy need to re name this bleeding eyes rainbowdash
ReplyDeleteOy, Dash. The sixties called, and they want their clothes back.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I'm not a fan of brushable hair. As a (anime) figurine collector, I like my collectables to look crisp and accurate to how the characters should look.
ReplyDeleteStill waiting for a normal-looking Celestia (and a Luna) figurine to come out. And a decent-looking Rainbow Dash.
Speaking as someone who grew up with the ponies, I'm a fan of the brushable hair. I know some bronies in the communuity prefer show-accuracy and that's something I can totally respect (I have several statues and anime figures gracing my desk and shelves) But in my head, ponies are for brushing and plastic pink Celestia was a double letdown. Now my plastic one is painted white! I'll probably do the same to the brushable one.
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash looks....she needs Rarity's help, stat! However I'm excited there is a pegasus base now for the styling ponies for the modders to mod. I think we just had pinkie and rarity before, so yay!
@Rabid-turtle Your ponies look great! You're also braver and I am. I'm still slightly afraid of giving haircuts to my ponies.
Yikes, that site, as well as its parent company, alibaba, are notorious for selling pirated goods; a good example here being the paper ponies which can be downloaded for FREE at paper-replika.com
ReplyDeleteNot to mention that the Dash doll made me want to throw water in my eyes...
i'm scaired about that rainbow dash toy
ReplyDeleteif they bring that one into FiM,fluttershy will disaproove
