The first set is called the Nurturing Friends Set which comes with Fluttershy, Princess Celestia and Philomena. This set is most likely based around the "A Bird in the Hoof Episode"
The second set is also a new one and is called Royal Friendships. This set comes with Applejack, Twilight Sparkle and Spike (who's got a nice looking new mold as well) and it comes with some sleepover accesoires as well. It might be loosely based of the "Look Before You Sleep Episode" although it can just be a regular sleepover party.
And at last we got the Family Moments set and this time we get a much better look at the brushables. Shining Armor has now real rooted hair altough it's designed like a mohawk just like his Fashion Style Release. He does have a real tail as well instead of the troll-hair one he's got before. Princess Cadance looks kinda weird in my opinion. She has a large forehead but perhaps she will look better if you style her hair. Baby Flurry Heart looks the same as her Crystal Empire Playset release with the difference that she's solid colored instead of translucent.
I really liked that ponies before but seeing Cadance and Shining Armor really hurts :| They are ugly. The ones we already have are much more accurate. I wonder what price tag will be, 12.99$? Kinda worried as 4.99$ brushables are working perfectly for everybody. Fluttershy and Celestia is must have for me. Seems all of these will be release together. save up your money
ReplyDeleteConsidering the prices on Taobao they are going to be the same price as usual for sets.
DeleteThanks for the tip jorge I'll be saving up my money to buy these mlp sets.
Deletewe have seen a Celestia, a Twilight, And a Cadence, but there is still no sighn of a Luna yet!? wow, the celestia set looks cool though, though i'd love it if Hasbro made a princess Luna one which looks just as awesome as the celestia one
ReplyDeleteWell we didn't see a luna sculpt until Cadance came around. I just think Hasbro puts the "darker" ponies aside, as pink and light purple ponies are more popular.
Deletei guess that's true, bud i still hope to see at least one luna around
Deletefor sure we will
DeleteLuna and Rarity maybe
DeleteMaybe needs the longest because they always had issues with getting her fur coat right.
DeleteCadance's head looks like a balloon!
ReplyDeletePETSSSSSSS!!!! PHILOMENAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! And new Spike! I love these a lot except for Cadance.
I guess open mouth brushables are single editions
ReplyDeleteToy Twilight is an Alicorn while Show/Art Twilight is a Unicorn. What is the truth?

DeleteI adore that gif
DeleteI really don't think that this is for a reboot of MLP. They are using episodes to base these sets on. If this was a reboot, it would have different artwork, and it wouldn't be based on old episodes.
ReplyDeleteits not reboot of TV show, its reboot of Toy Line, updated molds, all generations used it.
DeleteTrue. I'm just glad the show isn't getting rebooted. It wouldn't feel right at all.
DeleteThey may change to Toon Boom after the movie tho including, the style changes, considering they have talking a lot about Flash being outdated.
DeleteLooks like I'm saving up money to save up on these mlp sets!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so conflicted..... I hate them but like them a little... I HATE that this signals the end of new G4 ponies, but Celestia looks a little cute..... And I want the full color Flurry Heart and the Philomena.......
ReplyDeletethis Fluttershy looks supercute compared to open mouth version
DeleteI don't like them either. I definitely prefer the ones we currently have. These just look to out of proportion to me.
DeleteDefinitely not a fan of the open mouthed versions either...but hey, last night i saw all 3 sets now being offered thru 1 seller off the aussie ebay site! Each priced @ $28.99 US.
ReplyDeleteYAY!!!
Oh, & i too thought that Cadence's head looked a little baloonish til i saw some better pics & realized her head was really no bigger than the other ponies. Once u get her out of packaging & give her a nice forelock & mane styling, she actually looks pretty darn close to how she does on the show :)
ReplyDeleteNice!
