Rainbow Dash

 

Derpy

 

Heads up for those who missed them last time. Don't pay huge amounts on eBay like I did for these figures.

Not sure if they fixed any color issues this time around. Would like to think that they gave Rainbow Dash magenta eyes and no blue on the top of her mane, cutie marks on both sides, etc., but odds aren't high.

Ha, I spent twenty-five dollars to get the Dash figure a few months ago. Oh well, it was worth it anyway, even if it is a bit exasperating. I hope everyone who wants them can get their hands on one this time around.

It's a shame that shipping to the UK is at such a high price. The shipping (no, not that kind of shipping) itself is three times more expensive than the actual vinyl figure... :3

That's the only reason i'm holding out on getting these, the shipping costs to Australia are crazy. I can't work out how it costs them so much... It would probably be cheaper for me to send over a kangaroo, have them put the figures in it's pouch and give it a map to my house.

Hi, folks! I went to the mall today and went into Hot Topic for the first time ever. Lots and lots of vinyls. Rainbow Dash still has the blue at the top of her mane, and still has a cutie mark on just one side, but she has magenta eyes now. Most of the Derpys look the same as before, but I noticed one had noticeably brighter eyes. Not sure if it's just a single-case factory error, or if Funko slightly adjusted the colors of both eyes. But just a heads up. :)

I had no idea they were even doing these as I've been out of the MLP loop for a bit. I stumbled across them on Amazon, which has them for the same price they are on the Hot Topic site. Just waiting for them to arrive. I'm really excited about them. I've seen rumors that Dr. Whooves and Fluttershy are next, has that been confirmed at all?

Fluttershy and Dr. Whooves are set to be released in March. I hope they don't stop at that and release at least the rest of the Mane 6. Though, I do like the Canon & Fandom release pairings.

Thanks for the info.

 

My Derpy showed up yesterday and is actually really nice looking. I seemed to be one of the lucky ones, getting one thats paint isn't messed up or have glue splotches. While not the best quality toy I could imagine she aint bad and I'd love to have a set of the mane 6 and other ponies to display like this.

I literally just got my Derpy Whooves in the mail and opened the package 5 minutes ago! I LOVE her! :D

 

Derpy is my favorite pony, so when I found out about the vinyls a few days ago I had, had, HAD to order her. I concidered the Rainbow Dash vinyl as well but decided against it at the last minute because WHERE am I going to put more ponies?! My collection is growing rapidly and I'm already out of room to fit it all. But now that I have Derpy, I'm regretting not going ahead and getting Dash also, because these vinyls are SO worth it! I'm thinking of ordering her Monday before I can talk myself out of it once again.

I might go soon to buy the Derpy figure, because I already have the Rainbow Dash one.  Plus, I need something to do next week while my parents are at work and my siblings are at school.

Nice, I've been looking for these :3 I'll be going after the Dashie one asap. Getting a big check in a day or two, and there's a Hot Topic in the mall where I live.

Happy to say that I have now obtained a vinyl Dashie figure of my own <3 Oh how wonderful it is to have a Hot Topic relatively close by.

My Rainbow Dash showed up today and I was so excited. I'm going to be doing a youtube review of both figures and put them up on my youtube channel. I love both of these figures. I had put off getting any of the figures really cause, well they just didn't do anything for me. These, well these are amazing.

This is complete bullsh*t.  After waiting for over a month for them to get back in stock I was about to get one, Then I saw that the international shipping cost was 44 dollars! I ended up getting it on Ebay for 30 dollars and I even saved 15 dollars from it!

Bought me both of them from Hot topic in the mall :)

 

The cutie mark is only on one side for both derpy and rainbow dash on mine and there is a problem with derpy's eye, the black outline is off and goes into her eye. Nothing too bad though :)

 

I am color blind so I cannot comment on any color problems on them though :\

 

From the sound of it, your Derpy is relatively unscathed. It seems paint and glue issues are common for the Rainbow Dash and Derpy figures. I really hope they fix that problem when they release Dr. Whooves and Fluttershy.
