A Deep Dive into My Little Pony Blindbags

[@EffMinus]

Thanks for watching! There's a clip of the show where the audio is unsynchronized, which is weird because it was perfectly fine in the video editor, but only messed up when exporting. There ain't no way I'm gonna re-export this behemoth of a video, so use your imagination to sync it up at that part!! Like I said in the vid, feel free to leave your thoughts on whether I should cover the Brushables or Equestria Girls dolls next!

[@teriso1793]

Brushables is up to you but personally I would he excited to hear about the equestria dolls Even if we do spend half the video vomiting at the Royal high dolls The minis are amazing

[@alicespunkcorner]

I would love for you to cover the brushables, And I recommend to contact some people in the collector like OkamiGirl64 (who You actually mention in this video) and Silver Cascade. The mile pony fans and the Mlp collecting community are their own little subgroup of bronies and I bet they (my friends) would love to help you with the video!!

[@Bruvhe]

Brushables would be super cool next! Although it’s mostly the 1st and second wave that have background ponies I feel so it might get redundant since they lovee to rerelease the main six with tinsel and extra cutie marks 😭

[@bestkingvegeta4000]

please do!! id LOVE an equestria girls video!!! it probably won’t happen any time soon --but id really love to see a video on the Chinese my little pony merchandise !! or even the official game cards!!!!

[@CozyGlow625]

Cover the Equestria Girls dolls first. I'm principally interested in your opinion about the Dazzlings dolls.

[@yeovolution]

as a kid i was the biggest hater of the recolours

[@numberonegiorgiosimp]

[@kaylafiee]

I hated the clear crystal ones too idk why

[@BloomBerry27]

I would be so mad when I saw that the toy looked nothing like the one from the show

[@nostaldec4705]

I remember the waves which had like 20 translucent ponies (or ‘jelly ponies’ as my family called them) and like 5 normal ones. The translucent ones always felt like a bit of a booby prize.

[@chada4806]

Same here

[@TheGoldfishArmy]

Fun fact about those blind bag toys, they're durable as fuck. I brought one to school in 2nd grade and some kid chucked it into the cornfield next door. Three years later, we find it in that same cornfield. A little sun-bleached with a small chip taken out of the tail, but otherwise perfectly fine. I also had the Octavia with the cello. She fell out of my backpack pocket and got run-over by a school bus. Had to glue the cello back on, but otherwise perfect condition. Props to whoever formulated the plastic these things were made of, they're pretty-much indestructible.

[@iwillsewyourlipsshut]

Bruh how

[@manuel-mr6ri]

its not the formula its just like the whole point of why plastic is bad lol it takes thousands of years to decompose

[@walkerdion4658]

[@moocowthepersom]

i have a very similar story for the g3 minifigs! a year or two ago my mom gave me one of my old mini g3 ponies after finding her in one of her gardens (had to of been there for at least 6 years i think since i think thats the latest i would have put my old ponies into storage) which only had some nicks on the side of her face, the hair is a separate mold so not only did it not get sunbleached from what i can tell but basically all of the painted details were still intact lol

[@wesleyfilms]

Future archeologists are gonna find those blind bags and marvel at them.

[@Purple._.Cheese]

If they actually made a Fluttershy mold early on then so many characters would look more accurate

[@soulslvr9562]

They did make a fluttershy mold it was just made later on

They did make a Fluttershy mold eventually

The trick is to find bundles with her in it on eBay if you wanna be smart with resources. I found multiple listings of people selling her alone for like $40, but found packs with like 50 ponies with her included for $100 or so.

A 3-hour video on My Little Pony blind bags? I have been waiting my whole life for this moment

[@flansolo94]

this bring backs memories of me religiously checking the codes on the bags at the supermarkets so that I only ever got characters from the show

[@EffMinus]

sounds like a fun time!

[@lightning_skyyy]

omg i did that too 😭 i remember not even knowing about the codes at first and being upset when i got some random character instead of one of my favorites lol

[@Mooms]

I always loved that the blind bags recolored the mane 6 molds and tried to pass them off as “new characters” (and even when they got new molds they just recolored those over and over)

[@TheSlipperyNUwUdle]

Honestly as a VERY casual MLP fan, I actually really love the glitter ponies. I kind of want one. I love how outrageously shiny they are.

[@Davidledonkayy]

i had a glitter trixie she uh i had very messy hands whenever i held her i would throw her around and somehow she survived ...until she went missing rip glitter trixie....

[@Crossmare_Harlie07]

That's so fascinating! I would've loved to have a shop like that when I was majorly into collecting these figures, sounds like a field day to me

[@Sai_png_]

i have so much nostalgia for these, my parents used to always get me these after every hospital/doctors visiti had to make and it always cheered me up afterwards. i dont care anymore if theyre inacurate, theyre such a big part of my childhood

[@EffMinus]

aww that’s sweet!

[@Ukiyowo]

love seeing your hands get progressively more glittery throughout the video as you handle the glitter ones more lol

[@Verminangel]

When you brought up rarity’s redesign it actually blew my mind like i’ve literally never noticed it wtf

[@ossy_serenity]

For 52:57, she`s based off the early-on brushable versions of Luna. Back then, those colors were included into her toys. Probably for the same reason as Pinklestia She did get a more accurate color scheme around the G4.5 era of the toys

[@LittleDevilAkuma]

I think I remember the reason was that Hasbro thought Lauren Faust's designs aren't 'pink' and 'marketable' enough for princess ponies (getting this title instead of queen ponies was also a marketing decision) so they released them in more pinkish colors. Apparently this strategy turned against Hasbro, as girls didn't want to buy an innacurate Celestia.

[@amesstarline5482]

1:30:29 Flim's name being Flim Skim has me wish Flam's name was Flam Scam.

[@nostaldec4705]

Maybe that was originally the plan, but I get the feeling the toyline likes to make it less obvious who the villains are.

Fun facc: horses rear up like applejack and Rainbow dash do in their figures. But it is only for a few moments but the pose is so cool that alot of companies make that pose a thing for horse toys in general

[@emmabug1375]

I’ve got to say that I loved collecting these as a kid and I love the wacky color schemes. The cherry one was actually my favorite as a kid. My friend and I would trade each other blind bag ponies and I traded one of mine to get her. I know they aren’t show accurate but I never really cared. I liked the different colors on the different molds. It might just be nostalgia but I genuinely loved the designs for these.

and i know you watched all of it

[@axolotlfairy2473]

Bumblesweet was one of the many G3 ponies they nabbed to turn into blind bag ponies- her G3 counterpart has a honey pot as part of her cutie mark and her back card says she's a baker. "Everyone says Bumblesweet is just as sweet as honey - and they're right! She likes to make sweet things to eat, too - like fudge and jellybeans and rainbow colored - taffy! No wonder her friends like to drop by to see what's cooking!" Also hoo boy- when you move into the unreleased toys you're gonna get VERY used to sweetie blue. For such a random pony she has some insane lore. Same with Starswirl the Beardless I assume Comet Tail has weird looking eyes on his card because he's a recolor of Shining Armor, who as you established doesn't have an outline around his eyes in the card art so his eyes bleed into his coat

18:38 YEP. When I was a kid my mom found these at the store and got all of them for my birthday, but she couldn't find Fluttershy for the life of her. So she told me that and we started trying to find her every once in a while. I actually did find her later in a set based on the second episode with the everfree forest, and the toy actually looked really nice ❤️ I still have a box full of these little guys and I pull them out of the shelf every once in a while, unfortunately my dumb child self messed up some of them with acetone so I have to repaint them but it's all fine.

With a name like "Sweetcream Scoops", I feel like she could've easily have been implemented as an ice cream vendor in the actual show. I mean, cows are harvested for milk and diary, and ice cream is a food item in the show. Soooo, that would've been cool. No pun intended.

[@justicedinosaur7302]

As someone who played with my little pony toys in the 90s, I didn't even know what their names were supposed to be and renamed most of them myself like pokemon. I never made much of a connection with the show. I always thought the shows were a spinoff from the toys, not the other way around

46:25 fun fact about nurse redheart!!!! This old design of hers is a violation of the Geneva convention because it uses the Red Cross logo which can only be used countries around the world and its use is limited to official organizations and programs, as well as the medical services of armed forces. Therefore: war crime pony That changed her in show design right after though but not merch!

[@shahed1977]

The reason that the original Rarity figure has pink in her mane is that her figure is partially based on her concept design which has pink hair in it

[@princelandrycrusher]

Finally justice for Sweet Cream Scoops. ^^ Since she's basically a recolor of Twilight Sparkle, my headcanon is that SCS was friends with Pinkie, Rainbow, Rarity, AJ and Flutters before Twilight showed up, the five of them dumped SCS as a friend afterward.

[@nostaldec4705]

Despite all their inaccuracies, I'd definitely say I'm more of a blind bag guy than a brushable guy. The blind bags (and minifigures in general) seem to have been made more with Bronies in mind than the brushables were, especially since they have solid manes and a wider range of molds, they had male ponies before the brushables did, and I think it says quite a bit they released Ditzy Doo, Dr. Whooves and all those other fan-favourite background ponies years before they even released Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Spike.

never knew abt it bc i finished the show like a yr ago & started watching madmen abt a month ago, but srsly 2 things i’m obsessed w my autism is going crazy over this 😭 i love when they do this in the show bc the show designs of bg ponies who are meant to be references to other shows always so clearly were designed with sm love & detail by an animator/whatnot who’s obviously a fan & so i love that aspect of it. it adds more soul to their designs compared to all the copy-paste recolor bg ponies especially from early seasons before they expanded the amount of unique bg pony original “bases.” but this does make me wonder why don’s cutie mark is a hat and, in-world, how he’d’ve gotten it & what his SPECIFIC “talent” that’s linked to it wld be. my brain’s going down this crazy route rn thinking: hats are associated w disguises, so he cld’ve gotten it once he started using the fake name & living as a diff person. which wld kinda be sad considering the whole point of marks being a representation of who one truly is 💀 maybe instead it cld be related to his ability to sell ppl (on) shit or j represent being a businessman. looking at peggy’s typewriter cm, i get the feeling that she was an adult blank flank (rare but possible canonically) who found her calling when she started working on the belle jolie account & got her mark when she was promoted to copywriter which i just find so sweet for some reason 😭🫶 also kinda obsessed w peggy’s first name literally being pegasus… despite being an earth pony but ig it’d be even weirder for a pegasus to be named pegasus. but i love how it still allows for her to be called peggy as a nn. i imagine roger being born w that dollar sign since he was born heir to the company 💀

Okay, this is surreal. I came up with my username 'Flower Wishes' completely separately from this pony. I didn't even know the pony existed. When you said Flower Wishes I did a double take and paused to make this comment.

As a My Little Pony collector who has a big following on Instagram, this video is Just the thing the community needed

I think some of the G3 ponies are unicorns and pegasi when they’re actually earth ponies is because the company needed more variety? Like, most of the G3 ponies are earth ponies so they probably needed to change them for it to fit? That aside, I’m 45-ish minutes (edit: almost an hour, my bad) into the video and loving it. The colour and card info inconsistencies are hilarious from how unexplainable they are. I remember getting these as a kid and honestly thinking that these were a rip-off from the horrible descriptions, and inaccurate recolourings and designs of the characters I knew, but then I’d see the Hasbro logo which would get me so confused. Thank you for the 3 hour long video! I enjoy it lots so far! Not usually into longer analysis videos, but I’m so here for your content.

I really liked these blindbags, even if my country hasn't recieved a new wave since around 2016, instead we got the same wave released till around a couple years ago. I wish I could have one of the newer ones, they look so much cooler ahah
