My Little Pony Pinkie Pie and Friends Set

Walmart doesn't get many toy exclusives, especially for My Little Pony however this Christmas they did get an exclusive set of ponies that are blind bag size. The Pinkie Pie and Friends set was available only at Walmart, and came out back in November I believe though its already being clearances out with other Christmas toys.


This cute little set was originally available at Walmart for 20 dollars, however now it is being clearanced out  at 10 dollars in many stores and is not available on their website. If you aren't able to find the set in your store one of your options would be getting it from Amazon through the link above, however it is more expensive there then it is in stores at it almost always is with store exclusives.

Truth be told I find this set just a bit amusing, considering what the name of the set is and who is actually in the set. This set is called 'Pinkie Pie and Friends' but out of the mane 6 it only includes Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Applejack, and Rainbow Dash. Evidently Twilight and Fluttershy aren't her friends in the eyes of Hasbro! Anyway beyond that this is a cute set, 12 pony set with 8 of them not being available as g4's in any other way. A few of the ponies I really like include the blue pony in the top row farthest to the right, her name is Waterfire and she is a g3 pony making her g4 premier.  Another I really like is the only Pegasus in the middle row. Her name is Stardasher, who reminds me a lot of Starsong which is my favorite g3 pony.

Beyond that the facts about this pony is normal, they are the same size as blindbag ponies and have the same molds even. They are nice little toys to have, but considering they are only 2 inches tall they may not be a good idea to get for your little one. It depends on how old your child is, the recommended age being 3 years and up. The packaging of these ponies is okay, it was easy to open and get the ponies out but a few of the Pegasus did get stuck in the plastic and take a bit of work to get out

All in all this is a good set and I highly recommend it for your My Little Pony fan. I just recommend you keep in mind how small these are incase its a little one who tries to put everything in their mouth.
