So does anyone collect merch? I recently got the Guardians of Harmony Spitfire/Soarin' toy with the weird jetpack thing. I'm pretty sure they took the sound chip from some Transformers toy:

The rest of the first wave comes out the last day of September. Oh, and someone found this pic of probably movie toy designs.
With the movie, Hasbro's pretty big on "Go big or go home" so I've been assuming the toys would be updated for the movie for a while. These things look really cute but, I do like the regular brushables more. Ah well. But a question: if these really are for the movie, why is Lyra here? Will she play a part in the movie? And if so, what?
Also, pic related is the new MLP logo for EVERYTHING. This might cross over into the show. What do you guys think about it?
>>28401924
Few of us do, others bash on them for shilling and all of that garbage.I own some figures, a watch, few shirts and a sweater from my younger days.
>>28402889
Yeah, I hate the people that do that.
>Actually shows support for the franchise you love so much so as a token of your appreciation you go out and buy a toy to say thank you to Hasbro for making such a wonderful show
>"HASDRONE KEKKKKKKKKK"
>pic related
>>28402943
Okay I don't know why but I wrote kek instead of cuck but hey it works
>>28402838
Less pink.
I've got a few things, when I get my next paycheck I'll order the >EqG Mini Vinyl Scratch. I've only been waiting since February since they announced it for it to be available enough to where I can easily find one for not 3x MSRP.
>>28401924
I'm trying very hard not to go on an EqG Mini collecting spree, but I'm not having the best of luck; I usually grab one or two a week. I don't really like the fall formal-series, but I might have to snatch the others up.
>>28403195
I wonder when they'll show the Dazzling ones. Maybe NYCC, when they might show wave 2 of GoH?
>>28403148
Amazon and Toys R Us have her for a cheap price.
>>28403222
Yeah amazon's where I'm getting it. That's a recent development though, just a couple weeks ago I could only find her for $18 at the cheapest.

If anyone wants the GoH Spitfire/Soarin' I mentioned, here.
>>28401924
I found the show through collecting so OFC I have a huge autistic collection.
I haven't gotten anything recent except for a Glimmer and an articulated Coco, and a Dash mini. I stopped getting every new release in maybe 2012 cause the toys got super boring for a while.
I really want Pursey Pink and the Pearly brushables, but they've been so shit with brushable distribution I may just go ahead and grab them off EBay.
Also they rereleased the set with Minty so I'm excited about that.
I like the new designs, especially those Twilights. I'm hoping it's a complete overhaul so we get new pones in new molds, not just the M6.
>>28401924
I've got a few 4DE plushies. They're pretty great. Also have a couple of shirts, a pile of cards from the CCG, Rarity and AJ minis, and I'm patiently waiting to see if they'll ever put the seasons on blu-ray.
>>28401924
My walmart just got the GoH Celestia and Nightmare Moon statues. I wanted them so badly, they're surprisingly gigantic and the price is nice but every single one had horrendously sloppy molding/painting spots on them. Like, they looked straight up chinese factory dirty and I checked all of them (about 6-8 boxes).
>>28401924
Yes
I have a few more plushies and toys since i took the picture.Kill me
>>28402838
Looks like they're really trying to market it as more gender neutral than it was.
>>28401924
You don't want to see my Rarity collection.
>>28404867
Honestly Anon, on one hand I'm terrified you actually have that much. On the other I'm mightily impressed you have that much.
Just don't live in a shithole or something because of it.
this is pretty much all the fan merch i have, i like how the minis look and might buy sunset shimmer once the price goes down.
Guardians of harmony are cool
>>28405510
>>28404867
So you're a Ponkfag, huh?
Behold my autism. Haven't got Spitfire and Soarin in there though.
>>28402943
>Hasbro do nothing but shit on the scripts.
>"We should show support and appreciation for that."
You're a retard.
here's some of my stuff
Although I prefer getting fanmade stuff at conventions, usually the official merch isn't my cup of tea
>>28405522
The heck is that stick thing hanging on the wall?
>>28405806
>That Rarity photo.
I WANT IT. Classy af. Wha- What is Rainbow doing?
>>28405815
Anything is a dildo if you try hard enough.

EQG is shit.But those humanized figures are cute.
>>28405975
Rarity pic is made by the talented pyrographer Horseez, I got it at Brony Fair 2016

GoH has yet to hit my country
>>28405776
Whether to show support or not, the bashing in the board against merch is hilarious. Even /toy/ gives 0 shits about their cartoons so long as the toys they put out are good enough for them.
>>28405776
>Show sucks
>IT'S HASBRO'S FAULT THEY RUINED IT
>Show's good
>THE WRITERS ARE FANTASTIC THEY DO NO WRONG
Do you just use them as a scapegoat?
>>28405806
Very cool etched Rarity picture, I need it.
>>28406546
This. As I recall, /toy/ was actually pretty welcoming to the Minis and GoH toys whem revealed, the mods just nuked the threads .
>>28401924
Are we getting new brushable molds? These actually look pretty good.
Some more found. Just need Rarity and Pinkie.
http://www.mlpmerch.com/2016/09/more-new-brushables-appear-rainbow-dash.html?m=1
>>28407443
Fuck, I misread your post and thought you had pics of Pinkie and Rarity.
>>28406758
When the show is good there's a noticable lack of "Here's a new $60 toy for you to spend money on" that butted its way into the show.
So even though you're trying to convince people here that it's never ever ever that black and white (on top of how your bosses have never done anything wrong, even with the Michael Bay films), the vast majority of the time, it is that way.
>>28407498
Transformers Beast Wars had several toy mandates, and it's regarded as an incredibly well written show. When you work on a cartoon for a toy company, it's your goddamn job to write in toys. If you can't do that, that's your fault as a writer. You're writing a toy commercial, write it well. Also, Hasbro still expresses control over multiple episodes without toy mandates. Also, Starlight Glimmer is one of the worst things to happen to the show, and she wasn't a Hasbro mandate, she was a creation of the writers. The writers are the ones who couldn't write Rainbow Power as anything more than a shitty DBZ clone. They're presented tools for storytelling, they don't know how to use them.
Also, in the case of the Transformers films, the amount of say they're allowed to have is limited, because that's how movie companies work, they fight over these things. That's why they made their own self finaincing film studios, so they could make sure their say is secured. Transformers doesn't carry Allpsark Pictures with it.
Also
>Because I defend Hasbro I must be a shill
Oy vey, totally. Because that's definitely how the world works.
>>28407537
>If you can't do that, that's your fault as a writer.
Because Larson must clearly be a shitty writer in every episode because he couldn't write MMC well (even though hasbro ensured that Shakespeare and Dante's bastard love child couldn't write that well). And that same episode is the reason Starlight exists-they had to do something with it. We've seen that the writers are very capable with making the show (by the fact that good episodes exist), so they clearly aren't the ones directly responsible for garbage finales, premiers, and regular episodes (helicopters, anyone).And if you're going to deny that the situation isn't ham-fisting toys into the script (since there's more than one way of getting them into the story as you listed with Transformers) you have the choice of declaring yourself a retard or a shill (everyone whose big is doing it nowadays, so don't act like it's out of the ordinary).
>>28406159
I bought a wood burner a few weeks ago for burning cutie marks into the wooden computer case I'm going to be building. Can't even imagine making it look as impressive as that photo.
>>28407423
I haven't seen any word of it, but I hope so.
>>28407498
Please, it's toy commercial show. /co/ would bitch about it, /toy/ would argue if the toys are better but neither would tell you that you're a hasdrone for liking either because any fan of a franchise would buy a toy of their favorites. Abstaining from buying because of reasons like ">supporting hasbro" instead of acceptable ones like "The brushables are pretty shit, not worth the money" is ridiculous.
>>28404867
Rainbow Power is racist power!
>>28405510
>>28405522
Chop off Twilight's wings, it's racist!

I have the CMC trading cards and AB dog tag. If they release more decent filly stuff, I'll get it.
CMC EQG minis when?
>>28404915
... Well, you're not wrong...But i actually live in a shithole for other reasons
>>28405533
Gee, what gave you that idea? &:DI still don't have the normal funko ones, though
>>28407697
Except dipshit, if your logic is "The writers can't be bad, there are good episodes" than that same logic applies to Hasbro, because they micromanage a ton of shit we both don't know about. But instead, you'd clearly just be an autistic "REEE HASBRO RUINING EVERYTHING" without a second thought. And don't act like you aren't acting like that, if you genuinely believe this. >>28405776
Why the fuck are you even in a merch thread anyway?
Also, the last part of your post doesn't make sense, you admit there are good ways to write toy mandates (The show is a commercial, it's their fucking job) and I'm either a retard or a shill? Go back to >>>/v/ with your shill bogeyman.
>>28401924
When's GoH coming out anyway?
>>28403390
Too bad 4DE got fucked over.
bump
>>28413444
Did they get a C&D?
>>28401924
I would, if official merch weren't such garbage. I have one ching chong plushie though.
>>28415265
They were officially liscensed, 4DE just got overwhelmed with preoders and didn't know what to do with themselves. But they never got a C&D
>>28415383
Glad I got all the ones I wanted when I did.
>>28415383
Bite more than they could chew? Kind of expected that. Are people getting their money back, or anything going on with the orders now?Sorry for demanding the spoonfeed.
>>28415402
I don't know what the case is with money involved, like I don't know if they took the money or not, nor do I know the full story, but they definitely bit off more than they chew. They basically thought they could fill the preorders, despite not being quite being prepared, which lead to all the delays, as well as different problems. Basically they fucked themselves over.
Most of them are available on Amazon at the moment, at least, for their normal price. From what I could tell, of what was released, only Pinkie is unavailable now.
>>28415562
They need to hire more slave children from China.
Looks like my order of horse dildos finally arrived
>>28416892
Fuck, wrong package, but still, these arent available in the country so internet purchases saved the day again
>>28417053
Very nice. Getting the others?
>>28417459
Probably. I'm very interested on Celestia and Luna for my collection.
>>28417053
I saw this at a Gamestop no less. I didn't think much of it besides how big it was.
I have some.
Pic related is 1/2. The scarf is from a con I went to. The black pony is from Voltaire (he's a guilty pleasure, so sue me), the Spitfire plush is from last year's secret Santa, and the Discorf was hand made in Germany.
>>28418303
And here's 2/2. The Twiggles plush and the thing next to her were also from the Secret Santa, as was the Vinyl. I also have an Applejack pin on the magnet in the right corner, but you can't see it. Lastly of note is an old G1 thing we found while cleaning out my Grandfather's house after he died.
>>28418303
That's a good looking spitfire! Nice taste with the drill Sargeant suit
This is an old photo but shows part of the collection (files I've too big for 4ch
>>28419038
That is a bigass monitor.
>Old image.
>>28418303
Oh shit, someone else has a P.O.D. from Voltaire.
>>28419068that's actually just a 55 inch tv
>>28419413
That's still pretty goddamn big.
>>28412242
>That same logic applies to Hasbro.
The logic is applied to Hasbro, but when you have a good-bad ratio of 1 to literally everything else, you're doing something very very wrong. But of course, you can just continue to act like nothing is ever their fault at all.
>Why you here?
Because I saw shit opinions-no you don't get to have a hugbox. Or we can just simply stop talking.
>>28419076
>googly eyes,
Every fucking time.
>tfw nothing but shitty official merch and a chink chrysalis plush

Is... that a bottle with cum between Celestia and Luna?
>>28421092
Oh christ it is.

I like to collect them, that's it, besides if i open them eventually i would need to resist the urge to hot glue Applejack and Derpy ones, I even bought 2 of Pic related so i could use one, the other for the collection
