Why on earth has Bon-Bon changed her name?
I'm really interested in seeing Spitfire out of box.

Thanks for the pics!

Sweetie Drops is more commonly known as Bon Bon within the fandom. Also in most fan-canons/stories Bon Bon is either Lyra's roommate or girlfriend (in that dating & romantic sense). In the actual show she's a background character, who has got a couple of lines during the show.

Personally I want these as any of the non-variant Funko pony (POP or) vinyl figures. As a characters Spitfire and Bon Bon does not interest me that much.

Stay in bed! I was reading on one of the pony boards that these were spotted at toys r us in Canada and it might be a distribution snafu.

But if these are the next two I'm pretty excited.

I swear, that Funko heard me, when I swore couple of days ago, that from now on, I'm only (maybe some other thing every now and then) going to focus on Funko ponies on my MLP collecting. So now they are making sure, they'll get all my money, by releasing these ponies at faster rate.

ok back from TRU (we have one literally 5 mins from the house so it wasn't too hard on my neck :) ) The report is that they have nothing as of yet. Don't even have the pop ponies. We will check again soon since we have to pass it to go anywhere that we go.

The good news is that they had smurf stuff that my sister doesn't have yet, so I took pictures of those and sent them to her so maybe she'll go check out her local TRU in Canada for me in return. :)

I feel like they will release 100 background ponies before they ever do Applejack or Rarity.

I'd like AppleJack too...only bonus I see to background ponies being done first is that there's more of a chance more of them will be made.

If anyone wonders, what's the deal behind these. These are (at first) TRU exclusives, like previous ones are or have been Hot Topic exclusives, tells Funko on their Facebook page.

https://www.facebook.com/originalfunko/ ... comments=2

This means I'll have to wait till these are getting their wider release as even if these would appear on TRU site, they don't ship to nordic countries (other parts of the Europe they pretty much do).

One of the threads on the pony boards said they were told the street date for these at TRU was Sept 2.

Don't you have a TRU in Finland? I thought they were established in all the Nordic countries. Have you tried the swedish TRU site? We have a Norwegian TRU website that ships here at least.

Yes, we have TRU. The problem is that I don't expect these items to ever appear in any TRUs or sites outside North America. Also Nordic TRU is different from other TRUs, since it operates under franchising agreement.

Two of my Toys R Us stores had them, but neither would sell them to me. Three hours and $20 in gas later, empty handed. I don't think any of them will be leaving the stores, as when they try to ring them up, they get flagged as "not sellable until September 2."

Becky-

It's okay. Deep breaths. The thing to remember is that carol has just about everything. I have a white spitfire proto and am really jealous of your rainbow dash one. I am also on one of the pony boards and someone on there has a white and color if just about every pony. Spitfire is the one they don't have in white ;)
