  • Anyone going to Comic-con/MLP Fair in Orlando?

    I just discovered that both events will be featuring an exclusive custom of Derpy Hooves, my favorite MLP character. I'd dearly love to get a hold of one of them, but...obviously cannot go to either one.

    If someone, anyone here, is going, please please PLEASE pm me, and I'll swear on everything cheesy and holy that I will reimburse you if you buy one for me and ship it.

    Yep, wall-eyes and all. Behold the power of the fandom.

    I'm not going to be attending either, but there are supposed to be some available on the website right after the cons, but I expect them to vanish about as fast as Rainbow Dash can fly...

      Exactly, last time, the extras sold out within 20 minutes. Worried to death I won't be able to get one, and she's my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE. ;_;

        My fave MLP when I was kid was Bright Eyes because she had jeweled eyes.

          Just a quick bump, as its next week...if anyone can possibly hook me up with one of the Derpy Hooves from the convention...I'd be hugely grateful. Would make my month, literally.

            Still working on it. I'm hoping to get my hands on the Zecora exclusive, personally...

            *Edit* Crap. Crap. Crap. My main contact isn't going this year, so I'm stuck that way. I'll see if my secondary contact might have a chance.

            My main contact did say that the hasbrotoyshop.com website has been good about getting them in right after ComicCon. Of course, this being the first G4 exclusive, and it being Derpy as well, We'll have to see how badly they get hammered.

                  Attempting contact #2. There's some exclusive "Motivational" posters that are being offered as well that my local Pinkie Pie fanatic needs...

                    And it didn't even freaking matter. Apparently they sold out of Derpys within 20 minutes of the booth opening.

                      Well, if they're made in China, expect "scrappers" to hit the market shortly. >_>

                        Can't say I'm surprised, really. I'm still hoping my press contact was able to get one, but I'm not holding my breath. Time to watch the webstore....

                            In under 4 minutes, I was trying to get one, and the website was responding horrendously. I spent a ton of time trying to refresh.

                            Absolutely give up at this point. /flips table

                              Well, my artist friend is going to be at DragonCon, among others. She did offer to watch to see if any are for sale there and pick one up, depending on budget. Do you have a price range you'd be comfortable with?
