It's cute, but I'm going to have to pass. I don't care for the newer ponies at all.

Yes, I think we're all aware of the crazy fanbase. Their "dedication" borders on obsession. It's scary stuff.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I was a MLP obsessed girl back in the 80's, but I think this'll be a hard pass for me (unless the sculpts are turn out to be somehow transcendently beautiful, but I doubt it.) All I can say is thankfully they aren't actually anthropomorphized pony-girls. I've sadly seen that artwork (thanks Rule #34) and I am still scarred by it.

Just from your aesthetic I expected you of anyone here to love these.

I think the art looks great. The colors and girlie cuteness fit the idea of bishoujo so well specifically Koto's style.

It would be nice it they came with a little pony too.

I never even watched the show or had any toys but I love these. Oh well I guess I will have to be the odd man out.

Haha! True, true. There are just some bishoujos I just don't love. I skipped the Tekkens too. This one just doesn't "grab" me. By no means am I knocking them though. The art is super cute, and Shunya, of course I love.

I thought the sexified female versions of Horror villains were a weird idea that wasn't gonna sell. Same thing for female Edward Scissorhands. But then they sold... So these will find a market too - plus, to be honest, the designs themselves have a lot of potential! They could actually be very cute statues, judging by the first illustration

It was women that started dressing as Freddy, Jason, Chucky and Ash long before bishoujos were around. Same thing with MLP.


Hasbro has to approve and the line will probably look a lot like this
