guardians of harmony

Probably after the movie. Comic comes out in a few weeks, and Toy Fair will probably have the second wave that includes AJ and a bunch of other ponies.

They're going to run out of villains pretty quickly though. Tirek's too powerful to use as a recurring villain, Nightmare moon's reformed, the changelings are reformed, Discord's reformed, FUCKING SOMBRA is reformed...

They're at an unsustainable level for villainy with all the reformations.

>>29334467
I think GoH canon is going to ignore Sombra's redemption, honestly. And Tirek is going to be the next arc.

>>29334591
I'd rather they pull sombra from an alternate timeline instead. Future sombra was cool, normal sombra was shit.

That way they could capitalize on how people liked him in the S5 finale without having to worry about canon of him having been blown up or being reformed or anything like that-- this would be a DIFFERENT sombra, so his personality could be wholely different from prime sombra.

And even if tirek is next issue, the problem still remains that he can't really be used as a recurring villain since he'd be too powerful/dangerous to just leave at large at the end of the story, and you can't just have him break free of tartarus every storyline without it seemingly pointless to send him back.

Maybe new villains?

We saw how well IDW coming up with their own villains worked out the LAST time they tried that shit.
not even going to bring up the cattle rustlers... or the Minotaur real estate developer...

>>29334797
Maybe James Asmus wrote Shadowlock better

>>29335567
Maybe... but bobby "Fosgit is better than pencils!" curnow is still calling the shots, so I wouldn't expect much quality control.

>>29334467
Could bring in some more G1 villains, Grogar would be amazing for example

>>29336981
What about those rock villains?

No. GOD NO.

Hope the Fluttershy gets a wider release; can't afford the San Diego Comic Con exclusive that came packaged with their Discord statue.

Hopefully it won't get an out of character facial expression like GoH Twilight got (and hopefully there won't be any paint app fuckups like what happened to Twilight's teeth).

>Vinyl gets a stature before the mane six
Hasbro, just wtf. WTF. Unless you're waiting for something special that happens in the movie for statues, This is just a whole lot of WTF.

>>29338574
Fan series.

They know priority.

>>29338580
there's probably more Dash or Twilight fans than there are of Vinyl.

>>29338601
Mane 6 had a lot of merch through the years though. The BG ponies weren't too prevalent in the brushables, or outside of Funko Vinyl/Pops.

Anybody with a bottle of whiteout can fix it. It's more a "problem" for people who keep their toys MOC.

Feels like whoever sculpted this one also sculpted the Celestia one. I want to like it, but the articulated version has a much better head shape.

For comparison.

>>29338469
Fluttershy based on the SDCC release is just neutral. However the rest probably will have angry faces, that's just how the line works unless you're Cheese Sandwich or Pinkie.

>>29338504
They probably thought the white teeth would make her look too scary for the little girls.
