are you frikin kidding me? Funny how they can release pops for the movie, and we still don't have a full-sized Sunset Shimmer Vinyl collectiblefrom them? What's up with that? Especially when SS is such a popular character? How do you guys feel about this?

Maybe they don't see Equestria Girls as being official when compared with the show? I mean, I'm not sure why they haven't made a vinyl collectible of Sunset--is this also true with other EQG exclusive characters--given her popularity.

no excuse. its still officially canon and Shimms is originally a pony anyway, so it wouldn't matter of human world is canon or not when she could've been made a pony. No excuse.

Hmm. I thought they weren't doing MLP anymore? 

 

ETA; Wait, aren't the Pops the smaller, cheaper ones with the dead, soulless black eyes? Those things give me the heebie jeebies.

I don't even like the vinyl pop figures very much, so I don't really care about the MLP versions.

However I am disappointed that Sunset never got one of the regular vinyl figures.

Guess they didn't see her as important enough. That's my best guess though I hope that isn't the case.

Maybe she dosen't sell as well as most people like to think. Just a hinge though.

Why would they have to sell Sunny? 

 

Do they even sell anything EG related? Because that is all Sunset Shimmer is related to, nothing more. If they don't sell EG stuff, then it makes total sense why they don't sell Sunset Shimmer.
