Well, looky here! · 11:43pm Aug 24th, 2015
Look who got her own Build-A-Bear plushie!
Five bucks more than the typical 25.00 price and she's a web exclusive, note only 4 per order. I bet anything she'll be gone by tomorrow and only available on eBay for a larcenous 250.00, so if you think you want her, MOVE.
Predictably, some people are busy having cows because her "official" name is Muffins, but y'know, there are "birth certificates" and you can name her anything you want.
Now I'm going back to sulk because Scootaloo is gone for good.
PS: I have the Fluttershy in her gala outfit and Pinkie. They're pretty decent value for money, actually. They're cuddly, have hair instead of that weird sculpted "show accurate" jazz, and at 25.00, you don't freak out about something happening to it.
Ikr, I just got her literally just now. (T.G.F.T.I.,thank god for the internet!!
) also, WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY GOT RID OF SCOOTALOO!?!?!?!?!
3344862 Retired ages ago, alas. Don't know if they will bring her back.
I have to admit, I am strongly tempted to get a cuddle-compatible Derpy. However, I have the Funko figurine, one of my two bits of pony merchandise, and I am perfectly happy with her. Even if she's called "I
" Best Pony has many names, and I am okay with that.
3344894 aw, man...
3344898 I have to be mega strict with myself about pony merch. It's more about house room than anything else. I have a custom Cheese Sandwich and Rainbow Power Pinkie, which are my pride and joy. I just don't want to have a Pony Room (™). But I know from experience that they are cuddly, and she does look cute.
Pinkie got to be Best Horse through the Build A Bear plushies. I was going to get Rainbow Dash, who WAS Best Horse, but I couldn't leave Pinkie behind. It seemed too sad, when there she was at the mall, waiting to be my PFF! So I brought her home. And then she took over my brain. Now RD is retired, and lo, there Pinkie is, formerly retired but back from the dead. She will never, ever leave.
She's so cute!
Yeah, well, they're the type of people who are always going to be unhappy about something. They could have a canon episode where an evil time traveller goes back and undoes Twilight's ascension, making it so she was never a princess, and the anti-Twilicorn people would bitch that it didn't happen soon enough. The could rename the show Superior Spike and His Pitiful Pony Pals, and the Knights of Spike would be upset that he has to share billing.
Congrats on scoring one!
There was a brief moment when I considered being That Guy and buying one just for the supply-demand scalper's fee I'd get later, but then I remembered I'm not completely evil. Is it treasonous for me to say I'm not that big of a "Muffins" fan? I mean, yeah, she's cute, and I like her as much as I like any other background pony, but I gotta restrict my pony plush purchases to the ones I can readily maintain, and that means saving EVERY SINGLE SLOT FOR PRINCESS CADANCE.
But it's not like I'm obsessed or anything.
