I'm not a huge fan of the coloring, but she will likely be the fourth MLP Bishoujo I keep (behind Rarity, Apple Jack, and Luna). But seriously - looking at the last 3 MLP figures - how did we go from $100 to $130 to $160 in the space of a few months?

The manufacturing and painting of Celestia will be a complicated process and her pony is much larger than the rest. Also our final production numbers are still quite low and nowhere near what mass-produced toys see. Therefore the cost to manufacture each piece becomes significantly more expensive.

But we definitely are aware fans do not have infinite resources and that SRP increases must be implemented only when absolutely necessary.

When I saw the different colour grading on her dress I knew this wasn't going to be cheap. I don't collect the line, but even I am tempted to get this magnificent piece.

Kind of glad I didn't get the original Miku, now that they are releasing one with a Pony.

I never knew these characters until my daughter starting getting into it. These are all homeruns imo. Good for fans because they are super quick with releases with this line.
