Amazing how you can rape a huge company's entire production team with a single model.

This is win.

A little Sculpy/Fimo, a bit of paint, a good eye, some hand-eye skills...and BAM! Fans 1, Hasbro big fat nil.

This kind of lovely work is why I have to break out some polymer clay and try it myself.

A perfect universe: We get merch like this.

A good universe: We get merch that at least resembles the show.

Goddammit: Where we are.

Hasbro is going for the under 50 cents a plastic figurine angle, so they can sell it for 2 dollars, minus shipping, store cut and taxes.

But seriously crap economy or otherwise they still need to get the 20 and 60 dollar toys out there. I can't spoil my niece on 2 dollar ponies.

Eh, I beg to differ. Right now, her jewelry looks like it's hammered gold, which is awesome.

Some kind of higher grade ponies would be nice for MLP collectors, I imagine. Like the Transformers Masterpiece lines are for Transformers collectors.

Honestly, I don't see how they can't make toys like this. It can't be THAT expensive to spend a little more time.

I was in a toy store once and I heard a little girl complaining that Celestia was the wrong color. XD

^ Funnily enough, Celestia is pink for the stated reason that "girls like pink toys"

Warhammer: the explanation for that is simple.
You see, corporate executives are stupid.....

Only two problems, technically, with this model---
ONE: The mane and tail aren't brushable.
Brushable manes and tails are THE major selling point of MLP, and have been since G1.
TWO: it would be more difficult to mass-produce a model like this. Casting moulds would be harder to make, more material waste, higher expenses at a half dozen different points.

This is hoofs down the best Zecora figure so far. Perfect shape and perfect painting.
