As well, the small representation of her on the box, is closer to her actual cartoon appearance, proportion-wise. It’s almost like she’s a video game character that is a few levels away from achieving level-up to her final form. The length of her legs is definitely smaller, as are the size of her wings. This image shows a good representation of Celestia, as well as her height when it comes to the regular ponies of the show.Ĭomparing the screen cap to the images I took of the Funko figure, it’s like they put the princess in a vice, and squeezed her down in size. Given her design, Celestia looks almost like she was made by a committee…one that said, “make this figure, but shave off about 22% of her overall proportions to save on money.”įor this review, I’ve included a screencap of the episode, “Keep Calm, and Flutter On,” seen below. I held off on other variations, certain that Funko could eventually deliver the goods, and…they kinda, did? However, none of the designs really seemed to come close to the Flash-based cartoon stylings that many had become accustomed to on television. The princess has been given multiple depictions by Hasbro since the Friendship is Magic toyline began…as well as her “Principal” counterpart from Equestria Girls. The all-powerful ruler of Equestria for untold centuries, Celestia towers over almost all her subjects, commanding the utmost attention, as her ever-flowing mane of colored hair continues to waver in the wind. Some cartoons have a major figure who is a mentor, or a god-like presence, and Princess Celestia fits that mold. As 2014 wound down, they released two figures of Equestria’s most powerful Princesses: Princess Celestia, and Princess Luna. I had noted at the end of my review of those two figures, that it now seemed an open field to finally see some of the other major supporting players in the world of Equestria, and that’s what Funko gave us. With the late August releases of Rarity and Discord, Funko had quietly declared two major events for fans of their My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic vinyl figure line:ġ) Rarity’s figure concluded production of the “Mane 6” figures from the show.Ģ) Discord’s release signaled the inaugural start of larger vinyl figures from the series
