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

Postby **Neeko48** » Fri Sep 19, 2014 7:55 pm

I discovered something weird last night... my Sweetie Drops glitter's head slightly glows in the dark! It was kinda weird and it didn't react to my black light either.

Speaking of oddities, two of my vinyls are missing the MLP stamps on the bottom of their hooves. Has anyone else seen this?

Some of mine don't either. I think it's a wave based thing (as in older waves don't have it). My Derpy Whooves (both regular and glitter), Doctor Whooves, Fluttershy, Octavia and RD don't have stamps.

I believe the first few vinyl waves, the MLP logo was not added. It was with the start of the wave that had Pinkie in it did they start adding the logo stamp.

Debating if I should pay $70+ for a glitter pony. I don't really know why I want one. lol

I wouldn't pay that much, depending on the pony. They'll definitely go down in price after a while, save for glitter Spitfire and glitter Sweetie Drops.

Oh my gosh! The voice actress for Rarity is gonna be at ECCC! I hope her pop shows up by then so I can get both signed.

Postby **Buffy6** » Sun Sep 28, 2014 5:28 pm

Would you look at that, glitter rarity went from $99 to $49.95 now. lol

Is it a good price now? Or should I wait for it to go down more? I don't think I'll be happy until I have one glitter pony. lol

Why is Rainbow Dash glitter so cheap on some websites? Is it because it was an SDCC exclusive and not really a chase?

$49.95 is definitely more reasonable. It's at a better price. For me, a good price would be retail, but I can only dream. lol

It's really up to you if $50 is okay for a glitter pony. Personally, I would go for $40.

You are correct about Rainbow Dash. 1008 of her were made for last year's SDCC.

It's offical after seeing equestria girls two yesterday I would die to have Funko make sunset shimmer! Ugh I want her in a glitter Funko so bad. Here's to hoping.

My personal limit on glitters is $50 (not counting Sweetie Drops or Spitfire) so I'd say that's a good price!

Guessing we're still silent on protos?

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Thu Oct 02, 2014 4:13 pm

I haven't heard anything, know you're all "chomping at the bit" !

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Thu Oct 02, 2014 9:17 pm

Yes very much cannot wait my princess senses are tingling

Postby **Birdeh** » Fri Oct 03, 2014 9:32 pm

I'm a little bummed out, tbh. I was hoping new ponies in time for my birthday (even though I can't afford them now, they're still nice to look at)

Postby **MHowe1980** » Sat Oct 04, 2014 12:22 am

I was thinking the other day:

What if the reason why we haven't had any announcements, is that the next two releases will be characters related to the Equestria Girls Universe?

I speak of:

Sunset Shimmer, and Flash Sentry!

What if they're holding back until the DVD release date of Rainbow Rocks?

Postby **renirawr** » Sat Oct 04, 2014 12:12 pm

Hmm... I actually doubt it. That's just me, though.

I've always assumed they'd give us the princesses after they did the Mane 6. At least I'm really hoping that's what they do.

Postby **Birdeh** » Sat Oct 04, 2014 12:14 pm

Watch us get a couple of super obscure background ponies next.

Postby **beckysaurus** » Sat Oct 04, 2014 1:29 pm

I can dig background ponies. But I don't know that we'll see another set this year. Even if we get protos soon, I bet they won't have a street date until maybe January.

Dont be the bearer of bad news ..

...I hope we dont have to wait that long

Postby **renirawr** » Sat Oct 04, 2014 10:26 pm

As someone who collects other pony merchandise and toys from the first generation and the 4th, I'm okay with no new Funko figures until next year.

I'm already going to be broke with all the new stuff coming out!

And honestly, that would make sense for no new figures until January at least, seeing as the second series of mystery minis already came out. I'd imagine if there were going to be new figures, they would've included them this time around and had the second series come out later.

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Sun Oct 05, 2014 11:30 pm

Unless things have changed as far as I know we ARE getting another wave this year. All info I learned from such contact was true so far so I'm not giving up yet. And I have known this info for 10 months about another, I don't know exactly who it is, but I know it has not been released yet.

Holy crap!!! Awesome! And this means we'll be getting a Celestia vinyl most likely too!!!

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 4:22 pm

OMG someone post the vinyl now of Celestia!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE I don't collect pops..

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 4:23 pm

There wasn't any vinyl protos, only pop.

Postby **frankusho** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 4:24 pm

Yeah... only pops. Still a good reveal.

I know but these were the two pops that were on the wall with the concepts of the Luna and Celestia vinyls so maybe we should be seeing them soon!

Postby **XXDCXBATMAN** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 4:29 pm

That was the hardest thing I've ever done, I could've gotten the Discord proto, but then I would be broke. It was so tempting, agh, sort of regretting it now. Anyways, there was also a Spitfire proto up.

You might want to start a new thread for the new Pops, in case anyone misses them, since this is the vinyl thread? If you want I can do it for you

I'll do it, I personally like the pops better than the vinyls (sorry) lol

Feel free to start any new threads, if that makes it easier.

Sounds good guys, frankusho did you happen to get a Spitfire photo?

Postby **Neeko48** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 6:50 pm

yay celestia! Did you guys see the blue flu variant of Discord?

Postby **renirawr** » Mon Oct 06, 2014 6:55 pm

I was just about to come here and post that!

I think it looks good, but I'm not too excited about yet another variant for the vinyls... although Discord SHOULD be the only one they make like this, and at least it'll be easy to get.
