it looks so soft and squishy! I'm gonna have to look into getting that type of fabric and try making a couple of plush dragons ^^

I've gotten minky that goes every which way, it annoys me. I never know which way to lay the pattern pieces to cut it!

This looks really sharp. I love your pony plush pattern, it's awesome. :)

if it's stretch fabric, it should stretch across the nap. I accidently made a pony with the stretch going vertically instead of horizontaly. It looked..... weird

*nods* Yeah. But half the time I go to brush it out and realize I've done it upside down! not that it matters a lot, but it sort of annoys me on principle.

Nuoh

Mah

A-gawd

looks like it cuddles good.

Nyoof

Hmm, with all the different ponies you're doing I'm tempted to give you a challenge you'll rip your hair out at.... Zecora :D (All those stripes and stuff, hee hee! At least the hair will be simple I guess.)

I'm goint to make one for the December Midfur.

Ooooh.... I suppose there's no chance of a twin fer me? :D *batbats eyes*

damn, that was supposed to be a reply, not a new post ><

It will probably be around $300. all the stripes and detailing will be sewn in, not just painted on.
Will have to have a good look at the character and see how complex she is.
I know Hasbro have made a lil plastic pony of her, but I don't think they got the shape of her head right.

It's just their unicorn head with no horn.

I'd be willing to pay that and more for her :D Depends if she doesn't get snapped up at MF first :(

I kinda figured you'd be sewing together the stripes, hence my earlier comment about how challenging she would be to make compared to the other ponies of a single body colour. That plus all the bangles and such.

As for the Hasbro image, they were all works in progress and may end up changing by the time they release them all later this year....

Oh, just remembered, something you may be interested in if you don't have one already. There is a MLP FIM (G4) set available from MYER stores with the standard sized MLP model of Luna, a comparably sized on-all-fours Spike (bleh!) and a similarly properly sized (to the other ponies) Celestia. She's still pink but at least would work rather than that over-sized talking glowy winged monstrosity. I think from memory it was $30 but they had a discount sale on so I got it for less :) I got it from MYER Cannington (Carousel).

All ponies are difficult to make into plush toys. It's usually the eyes and cutie marks that drive me crazy. Lots of detail in a tiny space. It will be the same as making a Wonderbolt in full costume, or a pony with lots of accessories.
The first one is always the most difficult.

and I doubt Hasbro will be willing to pay extra money for a new head sculpt for just one character. They are firm believers in reusing moulds.

Thanks for the heads up on the Luna set. I think it's the same one I got from ebay, but I'll go look, just in case.
Celestia toys are strange. The electronic one you mentioned is too big, but the solid plastic one is too small- releative to the basic pony toy.
At the moment, it's Mattel that are making the better collectables. Not ponies, of course, but I collect many other toy lines.

I wish Lego would release a Canterlot set...
