MLP Vinyl Discussion (Funko please bring back the Vinyls!)

[AquaticNeon]

I would LOVE Photo Finish

Does she really have a big fan base? Thats news to me if she does, I'm not a fan, want more boys over her any day!

[Neeko48]

I thought she was a fun character and there was that cool music video janimations did, I can't really think of many boys besides Soarin, Shining Armor and Flim/Flam ( I guess bulk, but he's just so weird looking XP)

[renirawr]

I guess there's Braeburn too.

I doubt we'll see very many stallions by the time this is all said and done. There just really aren't that many of them that stand out, unfortunately. Shining Armor and Soarin probably have the best chances out of any of them.

I need Braeburn in my life, and we better atleast get Soarin and Shining Armor, Soarin would be the first ever boy Pegasus My Little Pony ever to be made (blind bags do not count in my opinion)

[MHowe1980]

I think Braeburn will take some more time to be acknowledged. I feel Cheese Sandwich has a better chance of being made before we'd see Brae.

I feel it'll be either Shining Armor or Cheese for next stallion make. Though I do feel they could reuse Big Mac's mold for making Celestia or Luna's Royal guards.

Braeburn has quite a bit of artwork out there, I think thats a pretty good way to tell who might come out is by how much artwork is made of them you know. I wish we could have the guards sooo badly... they totally could though just do the helmet with the hair coming out like the mohawk thing over the head and add the armor on. that would be awesome, then I will need a Changeling drone army as well!

[renirawr]

I feel like we'll see Soarin before Cheese Sandwich, but I don't doubt that we'll see Cheese Sandwich at some point.

Shining Armor almost definitely has to be the next stallion that gets made.

Funko has a way of making characters in a funny order though, I feel like because hasbro loves Cadence and Shining Armor so much those will be much later than Celestia and Luna. Remember they didn't make Twilight first they saved her for way later. I think we might see Soarin before Shining Armor, and hopefully before Cheese, because I love Soarin so much, especially in season 4.

Funko is not going to make all the main characters right away guys, remember they like to pair background characters with main characters, so ponies like Soarin, Berry Punch (drunk pony), Maud Pie, etc. Have a chance of coming anytime!

[renirawr]

I guess my thinking is that, because we got three this time around, that it would be great to do a Shining, Cadance and Chrysalis wave at some point (not necessarily next, but down the ling somewhere). If Shining isn't the next stallion, then it should be Soarin for sure. I know they aren't going in any sort of order, but it'd be nice to see some other characters before ones that were introduced in the latest season.

I like that they waited on Twilight, considering the whole wings/no wings debate that the fandom went in a frenzy over for some stupid reason. Her time as an alicorn and princess was pretty much cemented by the time her figure was available.

[MHowe1980]

I guess my thinking is that, because we got three this time around, that it would be great to do a Shining, Cadance and Chrysalis wave at some point.

There definitely have been some releases that have an unnoted "theme" around them:

- the release of Applejack and Big Mac
- releasing Twilight and Trixie on the same date

A Shining/Cadance/Chrysalis trifecta also seems the most logical to me as well.

Though this also raises the question: will Funko continue with 3-character releases, or go back to the 2-character release?

[allonsy_slayergirl]

I don't mind so much if they release in pairs and trios. Just can't wait to see which ponies are next! Soarin would be my choice for next stallion, unless they do Shining Armor which is also a good choice. I'm also surprised they haven't released a Cutie Mark Crusaders trio yet

[Birdeh]

I would really like a royal guard actually

that'd be rad

but yes to Shining and Chrysalis and Cadence. That's like..seriously perfection. ;;

Oh oh so wave ideas:

Shining, Cadence and Chrysalis
Tia, Luna, Royal Guard
Braeburn, Granny Smith
CMC

of course we also gotta remember they don't like giving us all the ponies we like at once so it's more likely gonna be like Cadence, background pony x2 and then Shining, background pony x2, Chrysalis, background pony x1, changeling drone

[renirawr]

I would seriously die if they made a Chrysalis figure.
Then I'd promptly come back to life and buy all the variants because I love her.

I'm very excited to see what's next though, no matter what it is! In the meantime, I need to figure out how to better organize my figures. I have the regular variants out of their boxes, and the glitter ones in their boxes. Sadly I don't have anywhere to put the glitters, so they're just stacked on the floor in front of shelf where the regular figures are. This wouldn't be a problem if my fiance and I weren't collecting so many different things.

idk what your budget is / space management is but I got a bookshelf from walmart for $60 and it holds exactly five pony boxes on each shelf (sideways, with the name facing out) and gives you space in front to display. It was called something like 'south shore narrow bookshelf'

it's really pretty and sturdy too

[renirawr]

I was thinking of buying a bookshelf at some point, but we're living in an apartment now and we'll be moving into a house next year (hopefully) so I was going to try and wait until then. Less things to move and whatnot.

I may cave though and just buy one. I don't like having my ponies on the floor. I'll check Walmart or Target tomorrow.

that's what I went for. Of course when I got it, it was on rollback. :x

[ShoMeNodder]

Collection now w/glitter Rarity :

[beckysaurus]

Gorgeous as usual, Carol!

[allonsy_slayergirl]

Congrats, Carol! I just picked up Rarity also today!! Slowly getting all the pony vinyls!

[Neeko48]

Yay! It's so pretty! :D

[AquaticNeon]

Carol I'm curious to your order of ponies its so random? It's not wave ordered, color ordered, or character ordered?

[ShoMeNodder]

No particular order...i do that to bug all of you with ocd.

[AquaticNeon]

Lol really?

[ShoMeNodder]

No, just joshing with you !

[AquaticNeon]

Oh haha do you just have them ordered in your favorite order? Or do you not watch the show? Also how come you don't have any mystery minis from series 2?

[Kitzka]

Carol

Love these complete collection pics. I'm
Hoping I can move stuff around in my room to put all the ponies together. Right now my production ponies are in one area, glitters in another and minis and protos somewhere else.

I just like the horses, don't know anything about them and not really collecting the mystery minis unless i stumble on a whole group of them i can buy in one fell swoop.

[Arloe8]

Loving the update Carol!!

[Dark69]

Just won glitter Discord for $60.00 shipped! 1 down, 2 to go!

Ah man, you should totally watch some episodes of the show! I was curious because of the vinyls, mystery minis, and pops, but WOW!! Totally loved the show! Makes me feel 10 again

[renirawr]

Beautiful set up, Carol!

If all goes well today, I'll be able to cross two glitter ponies off of my list and I'll be down to just needing one more! I don't wanna jinx it though so...

[Birdeh]

Good luck!

[Arloe8]

Finally getting around to posting a couple of pony pics...sorry for the bad lighting

[allonsy_slayergirl]

Is that Princess Celestia??? I thought they hadn't made a vinyl for her yet

[MHowe1980]

..I'm assuming that Princess Cadance is custom? Or is this one of our first images of what's to come!?

[renirawr]

That Cadance is really pretty! But yeah, is it custom made?! There haven't been any Funko ponies that tall, unless her shoe things just elevate her a bit.

[ShoMeNodder]

Looks great, Dorian !

[Arloe8]

Is that Princess Celestia??? I thought they hadn't made a vinyl for her yet

No its a Princess Cadance custom..actually pretty impressed with the work and is very funko like. I can only imagine what Funkos will look like if we get one!!!!

[Kitzka]

Dorian

The pics are amazing! I love how you have the proto, production, mini and glitter together. I may have to clear off some of my shelves and you have pony teefs!! Those are great!

Thanks so much for sharing your collection. I have a package on the way and will have to post my own pics soon.

Question- I noticed you are missing some production pieces. Is this intentional or did you only want production pieces if some? Oh and that custom is amazing!

Oh, gosh.... DUH! Mea Culpa...

I hope if we ever get a princess Cadance it looks that good! Fabulous custom!
