Carol, can we please get a size comparison between the Princess Luna and the other ponies?

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 9:04 pm

Here she is between Spitfire and Rarity 18865

Postby **Arloe8** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 9:13 pm

Thanks Carol..I think there will be a riot about her being the wrong size :eek:

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 9:15 pm

She looks kind of thin/small compared to the rest...all mane & no meat !

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 9:18 pm

Dang was hoping she would be bigger than that... hopefully Celestia will be much taller. Funko stop trying to make them fit into the mystery mini boxes and just make them the correct size... atleast she is a little taller can you compare her with Big Mac?
18867

I would have preferred her a deluxe figure and the discord price...

Thanks Carol! I think they definitely made her too small, with Discord they made him smaller as well which didn't bother me because he really is way tall. I think she should be a head taller atleast then the others. I think once I have her in person I'll feel better, they should have just made her in a sideways Discord Box tho.

Postby **Eurocoin** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 9:34 pm

While disappointed about the size, I totally expected this to happen after they made Discord way too small.

Postby **Arloe8** » Wed Nov 05, 2014 9:46 pm

From the second picture she looks a little taller but I am still excited to be getting her

Same she is best pony, I hope they atleast do Celestia a head taller than Luna. I'm starting to think Luna is getting a late shipment, no postings, no findings, lots of weird stuff going on with my order.

The HT stores I've talked to said she's not hitting stores until late next week at the earliest...

Not happy with her size at all.

Postby **Kitzka** » Thu Nov 06, 2014 8:43 am

Thanks Carol. I really appreciate you taking the time to post the comparison pics. She's quite lovely.

Well, she seems to be slightly taller than the other ponies (except Big Mac) and she's thinner than them, as she should be so... I dunno, I think she looks great. I'm not going to complain because this is the first Luna figure/toy we've gotten that looks accurate and doesn't have her season 1 look. Hopefully Celestia is taller than her!

Postby **beckysaurus** » Thu Nov 06, 2014 11:20 am

I really don't care what size she is. So long as she is AS big as the other ponies, and the sculpt is great, I'm thrilled. Companies can't always make things to scale. It costs a lot of money, especially if you're doing a unique size for each and every pony. Keep in mind that we're talking about toys.

Postby **renirawr** » Thu Nov 06, 2014 11:44 am

Exactly. Although I don't mind the cost of these, I'm sure they'd be a heck of a lot more if they were actually to scale. No complaints here! They're still the most accurate pieces of merchandise out there for G4 pony collectors!

Also, Luna's street date has been changed to the 24th if you look at Hot Topic's site. So yeah. I guess we're waiting a few more weeks!

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Thu Nov 06, 2014 12:47 pm

I would have much rather paid $24.50 on each princess for a little bit bigger size. (with 25% off they still would have been cheaper than that)

such a cool proto! :D

When Funko makes the ponies who do they have to get approval from for each sculpt?

Not sure I completely approve of her though wish she was just a tad bigger though, this is the first time we are getting her actually accurate though every release from hasbro she is purple body and has pink, purple, and blue hair.

Hasbro probably has final say simply based on how other companies have forced Funko to make certain pop lines bobble...maybe this is the size (when compared to other ponies) Hasbro imagined from the beginning..they did change her size in the TV series

I can be taken off the list for Big Mac. I'm on a roll. XD

Postby **Arloe8** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 11:13 am

Congrats Michael!

Nevermind on the Big Mac. It was a scammer. Paypal will refund me though.

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 6:31 pm

That sucks !

I know, this person scammed a ton of people! It sucks, Big Mac is my favorite side pony.

Postby **renirawr** » Sat Nov 08, 2014 10:41 pm

Ugh, scammers suck! Sorry you had to deal with that. It seems that glitter pony scammers are running rampant... apparently I wasn't the only one who had been scammed on the MLP Arena site recently, either.

Yeah, I'm a little upset, but paypal will refund me, so it's not horrible. This person didn't just scam with ponies though, he scammed a lot of people with pops as well.

Understandable. I was pretty angry when it happened to me, then I calmed down after getting the refund.

Oh wow, well I hope everyone else was able to get their money back. I know there were a few people on the MLP Arena site that had been "selling" glitter ponies to users, only to disappear after being paid. It's a shame that people get a thrill out of doing that to others.

Postby **Birdeh** » Sun Nov 09, 2014 9:28 am

Went to HT today. No glitters, no Tia / Luna, but I did manage to score exclusive Twilight mini and regular Rarity mini!

Postby **Birdeh** » Sun Nov 09, 2014 9:29 am

also I've found another store to check if you have one. It's a pretty small place called 'Fetish' and they sell lots of Hello Kitty and MLP stuff--talked to the staff and they normally get 1-4 glitters in a shipment (AND they get old ones, too)

Postby **ShoMeNodder** » Sun Nov 09, 2014 9:29 am

Well that's something ! More than i usually walk out with.

Usually those scammers charge low amounts for their glitters, thats when you need to ask yourself is this legit? Seems like if you know its a super cheap deal, it quite possibly is a scam.

Yeah, it was about 42, so it wasn't like a super amazing deal, just a good deal.

I'd be pretty upset if that happened to me :/

Postby **AquaticNeon** » Sun Nov 09, 2014 11:02 pm

Thats pretty cheap for him he has floated around $100 then dropped to $70 he kinda sells all over the place. It's good to look at records of previous transactions if they don't have any then thats a flag itself! Sorry that happened to you, I hope you find one, I wish Barnes & Noble would carry more ponies!
