Worst My Little Pony toy ever?

[Merion 783]

Those new jointed ponies. I hate articulated animals because it just ruins the whole look and makes them robotic and ugly.

 

I finally found them in a store the other day... What's up with their huge barrel-like bellies? They all look pregnant!

They do lol I made the mistake of buying one...they aren't that good and the posable legs are somewhat loose so they don't stand well and the cutie mark has to be on the lower thigh because of the joint. Also on the bottom there is a nice screw showing but I guess that's no surprise considering they have to hold the thing together somehow. The face is still seems the same as the non-posable ones though.

But I can't say Fluffy Heart was better.

Their lack of proper buttocks is another thing that bothers me so much XD

Mattel's articulated Barbie horses actually have nice, round butts where cutie marks would fit perfectly... just saying X'D

Did they bother to use coloured screws or it's the metallic ones, as always?

[Ponies4Bronies 394]

Mattel got it right then, so hopefully Hasbro will realize it soon enough. And the screw is metallic and not colored or capped off with a piece of plastic or anything. It just looks like the thing got impaled or something. But it doesn't bother me as much as the one cutie mark thing, with any of the figures the cutie mark is not supposed to be on only one side. But from an business point of view it would add more cost to the production.(Im a business major, so I at least understand why they make these decisions, but as a brony it still bothers me.)

[Sketchy Tail 206]

Basically all of Hasbro's pony merch.

 

Especially the EQG dolls and stuff.

 

The POP ponies too.

 

And the MLP Radz, whatever they are.

[DaringDo-While 47]

 

How about these tho? they're called MLP Radz and it's the worst merch i've seen so far. They don't even LOOK like ponies!

The horror. THE HORROR!!! Seriously, before reading this thread I didn't knew MLP-toys this terrible existed. :S

[Dabmanz 2,128]

Im not sure what the worst toy ever is but im sure its a 3rd Gen Toy

[SilverXFluttershy 27]

I think the worst pony toy is Aj w/ BLUE HAT. Or eg dolls...

Well, baby ponies hafta come from somewhere. Lol

Oh really? Hasbro hasn't been very good about jointed anything. Even the Transformers get loose joints really fast.

i didn't read every response, but I'd be shocked if someone already mentioned this:

take a look at this power ponies set, and see if you can see anything atrociously wrong about it.  Then open the spoiler below for the answer.

 

 

that's right, spike/humdrum is missing!  even after making him the butt of an entire episode, the makers of this set reinforced the theme of his worthlessness by excluding him from the product!

I see it everytime I go to target and it makes my blood boil!

Even worse than the ones I originally mentioned at the very beginning of this thread!

[Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,298]

I'm gonna take a moment to point out that this topic is full of teens-to-adults that are criticizing toys intended for children; young children, at that.  We aren't supposed to like the "Newborns" line.  I don't think we fall into the demographic that's even supposed to be buying the brushables.  Outside of this fandom, I've rarely run into anything quite like this.  It isn't as though most twenty-somethings see this:

And then proceed to go, "Wha- what even is this?  There are blocks, and there are holes.  That's, that's all it is!  Blocks and holes.  There are only so many things you can do with that.  And some of the blocks don't fit into some of the holes.  Maybe, today, I want to put a square peg in a circular hole.  Can't do it.  Can't do it.  Take your nonconformist shape-related thinking someplace else!  Not to mention: They don't have my favorite shape (which has a billion sides), the box itself isn't appealing to look at, and it hurts when you get hit in the eye with one of the blocks."

 

That being said...  It bugs me when the Rainbow Dash figures that "talk" have recorded voice samples that don't sound remotely like show-Dash.  I'd rather the voice feature had been excluded altogether.  I'm lookin' at you, "Flip and Whirl Rainbow Dash."

Okay, I'll admit it: I still kind of want it anyway. xD

 

And I don't know exactly what to say about this figure:

Those are not the right wings.  Those are not wings at all.  Why are there weird ornaments hanging from them?  What's happening?  Where am I? x (

I definitely second the original EQG toys, they were ugly as sin. Thank gawd for the Minis

 

There's still the subject of the early toys in the early days of G4 and stuff like Skyla

Then you've never taken a chance to see them. There are a lot of very beautiful and unique ponies in the G3 line. With great colors symbols and poses.

[Leave a Whisper 703]

It's not MLP, but you guys have got to see this monstrosity. Lol!

[Derpy Derper 87]

They really messed up this one wave 15 blind bag pony. Does THIS look like Sapphire Shores to you? Apparently not to Hasbro.

That's where I got it from XD.

[Darthy Hooves 106]

Oh god, that's a good point. Now I'm intrigued to see what they name the baby...

Did Spike have a secret affair with Princess Cadence?????? Because that Princess Skyla plushie's head sure reminds me of Spike! Edited August 9, 2016 by Darthy Hooves

Really? I think she's a cutie

[Steve Piranha 28,783]

 

Um, one is pink with a blue mane, and the other is blue with a pink mane.  Could it be?

Oh, someone noticed this long before I did 

This one is disturbing to say the least (spoliered for protection).

 

 

 

Something else I've noticed.... is the mare's cutie mark  . Yeah, I'm pretty sure having a special talent in bringing kids to the world it's not something I'd be proud off . then again, don't ponies usually get their cutie marks as foals  ?

The Spike figure that comes within the MLP busy book will forever haunt my dreams. 

 

 

There is also something really, really off-putting about the Beddy Bye-Eyed G1 ponies. That something is definitely the eyes.

Beddy Bye Eyes creep me out. I don't like most blinking eyed toys. It's a shame, because Baby Frosting and Baby Lofty would be so pretty if they had normal eyes.
