Super Commando Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Well, I have all the Macdonalds ponies on my shelf, that counts I'm sure, and the McD's doubles that I have are sitting on my Van's dashboard, I don't have any G1/2/3/ ponies anymore, we got rid of those when we moved awhile back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skye Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Sadly, I don't have any ponies on my desk. I was shooting to collect the whole set from McD's when they came out, but I ended up giving them all to a little 8 year old girl who loved them so much more than I. Maybe someday I'll replace 'em.

Puck Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 I have Applejack that came with a pink saddle and a little dog. Unfortunately she didn't come with her little cowgirl hat which was a bit of a let down but is still adorable. She's sitting on my monitor right now giving me that same old look. I hope to get my hands on a Rainbow Dash Plush some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianblackberry Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 Managed to snag all the McDonalds ones in one affordable eBay swoop, which is just as well since I don't care for McDonalds and I don't have to explain why i am buying a Happy Meal. Friend (Bramble Rose on here) bought me Applejack from Target I believe, just need to make the right kind of hat for her. My biggest win was the custom Derpy for a commission trade.

Puck Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Custom Derpy? That sounds like the best form of commission ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derpy Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 Well girls (and bronies?), I finally got all my McDonald's ponies!I don't have them setup on my desk, but I do have them setup on my bureau. =BI'm expecting to get Twilight's Twinkling Balloon in the mail soon, and that will have the honor of going on my desk in nite-lite-brite mode (very picky about what shares space with my PC hehe).Out of curiosity, has anyone gotten their hands on the giant plush of Twilight Sparkle that is a Toys R' Us exclusive? I've looked online and at my local Toys R' Us, but I can't find her anywhere! =( Help locating her online for order would be super duper appreciated.

Yes, I was stunned he was willing to trade her, but said something along the lines that she get far more exposure if I had her, or something like that. Whatever the case, it is so worth it!

GraphiteDoodles Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 I only have AJ from the Happy Meal toys.I'm actually thinking of at least buying toys of the six main characters for MLP:FiM, maybe Celestia and a few others. I've always rather liked ponies--I thought they were cute! I also would like to encourage Hasbro to keep up the awesomeness that is MLP:FiM!Hopefully the thread doesn't 404 anytime soon, but there's a great thread on Ponychan regarding how to make the toys' manes and tails resemble the characters from the show. http://www.ponychan.net/chan/toy/res/431.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hippo Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I came into fandom too late to catch the McD's promotion. Was it hard to get a toy if you go in asking as an adult? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackFang Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 here in latinamerica the McD ponies are yet to come (as well as the show) might give it a try via drive-thru + niece excuse when they come, like that comic (not brave enough to do it in person) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derpy Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Hey girls (and bronies)! I wanted to show off my new Twilight Sparkle Twinkling Balloon. I think it is the most darling of all the playsets right now -- it lights up, plays music, and even has a little handlebar (which you can use to carry it around, but I use it to hang it up). My only complaint is that the nite-lite mode doesn't last very long, and there is no way to mute the sound (it will always play a short song clip no matter what mode you have it in).I didn't like how the stock Twilight Sparkle and Rainbow Dash looked out of the box, so I cut/styled their hair in an attempt to make them look a little more like their cartoon counterparts. What do you think? If I am still feeling this adventurous when I get my Rarity, I'm going to try curling her hair with the soda straw method.I know that quite a few girls here collect or refurbish, so if you have any styling tips I'd really appreciate them!Well girls (and bronies?), I finally got all my McDonald's ponies!I don't have them setup on my desk, but I do have them setup on my bureau. =BDat set up is all of my want.I only have Apple Jack and Princess Celestia on my desktop.I want the rest, but I don't have 30 dollars to spend on them, ebay.I must have gone to Mcdonalds 20 times and only been successful in getting ponies twice.I've never hated that place more.I so sorry that you couldn't get the rest before the event was over. =( They were probably the most affordable ponies to get, too. At least Hasbro is finally offering a larger selection of FiM ponies, so you can always look for the normal ones at Toys R' Us and Target. They might even be more affordable to purchase than the McD sets on eBay at this stage.If there is ever another FiM promotion with a fast food place, I'd recommend asking them directly if they will just sell you the ponies. That is what my Mom and I did since I try to avoid fast food and couldn't bring myself to eat a Happy Meal every week. Sometimes they will have more than one type of pony in stock, so you can actually collect them faster that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKX Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 I wasn't going to even try and get any of the actual toys, but after seeing what you did to their hair, I really want them now.Seriously.That's awesome.As for the restaurants, the first time I walked in and asked for a pony, and apple pie, and a Mcflurry, as that's all I eat there. But the other times were just when my family was at McDonald's in the drive through anyways. My mom would get a happy meal and I'd have her get a girl one. I must've gotten every toy but a pony.I regret not going in and just asking for the whole collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At worst, I still have McD ones for the others. Yours though look really well, probably as close to the show as one can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ember Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Got my first ponies today! I bought the hot air balloon and a small Rarity, and let my sister have everything except for Spike and Rarity themselves. I've started to fix her hair up, but obviously not done...
