There's only one odd thing here: the set that was found on the shelves is a 12-pack, whereas the US normally gets a full 24-pack, just like the images we found earlier. Not only that, but the packaging only features English and French text, not Spanish as US releases usually have.
These 12-pack releases with two languages is commonly released in the UK, so it is possible that this set that hit the stores is a mix-up.
The figures included are the first set we posted in our previous post containing Tank, Winona, (brown) Angel, Opalescence, Lyra, Amethyst Star, unknown green pony, Gummy, Potion Nova, Cha Cha, a hippopotamus and Rarity.
While the Cutie Mark Crew confetti is gone, these new blind bags do come with another (potentially even messier) way of opening them: water! You can flip open the potion bottles, pour in some water, and after shaking them for a while the dust should dissolve and the pony will be revealed. Just make sure you close the potion bottle tight before shaking! (See photo and video of this below)
Update: First wave of Magical Potion Surprise is now on Amazon for just $2.99 each. Listing mentions 24 figures in contrast to the split box found in stores.
Thanks to SLPhotos for the photos & videos!

Why is it so hard to actually get to a picture of the actual toys?
ReplyDeleteAny codes to tell which is which? Since they’re no longer in actual bags no one can feel through the bag to find which one they have.
ReplyDeleteJust like the Cutie Mark Magic figures, they don't seem to have a code.
DeleteI believe there is a Letter that indicates what character is in. Equestria Daily has more info on it.
DeleteThere is a code that Thomas Selinka and Victor Ramirez posted a list on Equestriadaily and MLPMerch has updated their database under blind bags with the codes.
DeleteThese mop blind bags look horrible
ReplyDeleteWell that's certainly an unusual gimmick.
ReplyDeletethnks
