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

Postby **Galacticat** » Thu Oct 01, 2015 2:18 pm

WOW Nightmare Moon and CHrysalis look amaaaaazing! I am pretty glad I didn't see these in the Gemini store or I would have been tempted and I can't afford even one

I bet these come out REALLY soon in time for Halloween !!!! (Both absolutely PERFECT)

Despite my earlier resolve of not ordering bunches of them to up my chances of a glitter- I might order a few of these juuuust in case. Given the popularity of these characters, it may be a couple of years before the glitter prices fall to a reasonable (or affordable) range. Especially if they sell out as fast as Luna, and are slow to restock (like Luna)

I honestly can't understand why they STILL haven't restocked LUna and Celestia. Were they really THAT popular that they just sold out way faster than anticipated? Or production delays? Whatever the reason, they definitely need to restock those as well.

SO EXCITED ABOUT NIGHTMARE MOON AND CHRYSALIS! I love the minis but these are epic. Plus I have Nightmare Moon and CHrysalis armies to add to...

SO glad I didn't end up customizing my Luna to make a Nightmare Moon, this one is SOOOOO much better!

Please keep it up Funko! (Dying for a herd of Changelings next...)

And Carol- CONGRATS! These are yours ??

I just noticed that Nightmare Moon's horn is a bit bent. Maybe from shipping? I hope the regular vinyls aren't like that (although easy enough fix with heating the vinyl and then cooling in position)

Holy crap Carol, those are amazing. :eek:

MY QUEEN LOOKS SO PERFECT, OMG. I NEED HER NOW! :makeitrain:

I'm super excited for these two, they both look wonderful. And yes, let's see some comparison shots of the two with the other figures!

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Thu Oct 01, 2015 2:27 pm

Here is a pic for size comparison :

The horn is bent a bit but it is made of a pliable material and could be shaped if so desired...the wings also are made of this pliable material.

they look great standing next to one another. Thanks Carol for the pics!

Postby **renirawr** » Thu Oct 01, 2015 2:53 pm

Thanks for the picture!

I really hope this means we'll see Sombra and Tirek from Funko, because Hasbro sure as heck isn't putting out anything for them in their regular toy lines.

Thanks for the pictures!!!!!!!!!!!! Stunnningggggg Just in time for a Halloween release! Nightmare Moon looks way better than the mini with the larger mane!

Postby **frankusho** » Thu Oct 01, 2015 4:10 pm

Those are freakin' awesome Carol!!!

Postby **Kitzka** » Thu Oct 01, 2015 4:43 pm

Omg. Holy smokes!! Carol thanks so much for sharing. I love them!!

Ah, man... they look so good. I feel Funko is really stepping their game up with these figures. Can't wait to see what the glitters will look like. @.@

Postby **Birdeh** » Thu Oct 01, 2015 6:55 pm

I'm so excited. Bummed I didn't see the Chrysalis proto though. D: Would've bought her uncolored in a heartbeat.

I NEED MORE PONY SHELVES. D:

Postby **brand42** » Thu Oct 01, 2015 7:26 pm

Congrats Renia!!! All the best to the two of you!!!

And hopefully you didn't let Muffins send out the invitations

Also, great to see the new protos. There aren't many remaining large vinyls that I want but Chrysalis and NM are definite buys.

Nightmare and Chrysalis look amazing!! I'm so excited!! Thanks for posting the pics Carol

Postby **Mori_LeStrange** » Fri Oct 02, 2015 10:17 am

Wow! Those look great. Thanks for posting the pictures. I can't wait for these two to come to stores.

Postby **Seachell** » Fri Oct 02, 2015 1:22 pm

I wonder how fast those two will be sold out. Gotta stalk these forums so I can order one in time.

I also wonder how Nightmare Moon/a black glitter variant will look. I feel like I used all my glitter luck up with the double Sparkle Blooms last round, but either of these two characters would make an awesome glitter variant.

Postby **Galacticat** » Fri Oct 02, 2015 1:38 pm

They look awesome together !!!!!!!!!!!

Postby **Seachell** » Fri Oct 02, 2015 7:35 pm

So uh... the real wave 12?

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Fri Oct 02, 2015 7:38 pm

Could be? These are either wave 12 or 13, who knows they could come out around the same time like Pinkie Pie, Lyra, Spitfire, and Bon Bon did..

Postby **Seachell** » Fri Oct 02, 2015 10:04 pm

I hope so. I'll be disappointed if Cheese and Maud are next instead. I really don't care for either one all that much.

I'm kinda the same way I loved the Cheese episode, and I like Maud Pie but as figures they aren't anywhere near as cool as Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon. Plus I don't want Chrysalis and Nightmare around Christmas it was WAY too chaotic last year when Luna and Celestia came out I missed three Luna glitters.. and she was my most wanted and my fav and the one I needed..

Postby **Kitzka** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 8:53 am

Since we have glans of Maud and Cheese and the list mentions a giveaway(the original post in FB). I'm guessing these will be the next wave an NM and Chrysalis around the holidays. I'm sure the size of latter will mean those are a bigger price point.

I'll be at the mall often for holiday shopping so let the glitter hunt begin! Either way I'm excited for new ponies. It's interesting we have t seen protos for cheese and maud. I hope we see their protos soon.

I came across a Starfire glitter at B&N if anyone still needed her, just PM me. The box isn't perfect but I can send a pic.

Postby **Neeko48** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 7:45 pm

I'd be happy with a regular nightmare moon, hopefully they make enough this time :/

Postby **Birdeh** » Sat Oct 03, 2015 11:30 pm

I think I have room for like...three more ponies on my shelf. :x If I had the boxes for them all, it'd be less..

Looks like an excuse to buy more furniture for me!~

Postby **tabby1375** » Mon Oct 05, 2015 11:06 am

Just catching up...
Congrats Carol! These look awesome.

Postby **Galacticat** » Tue Oct 06, 2015 7:48 pm

Aw- so based on the give away it seems certain Maud and Cheese are probably next? THey look great and I will definitely get them at some point but it is hard so hard to be patient for Chrysalis and Nightmare Moon- those are the ones I NEEEEEEEEEEED

Postby **PrincessDaisy** » Wed Oct 07, 2015 9:47 am

Congrats Carol!

I am so stoked for new ponies!

Postby **Dark69** » Wed Oct 07, 2015 4:41 pm

Interesting. That makes the most sense. NM and Chrysalis would sell well during the holidays.

Postby **Birdeh** » Wed Oct 07, 2015 6:33 pm

I bet they'll switch it up and we'll get one of each. AKA Maud and Chrysalis, Cheese and NM. Instead of two villains / two other ponies.

They will be released as Lara mentioned. cheese and maud are the next wave, then Chrysalis and NM to follow.
