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!
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
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!!
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 😭
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!!!!
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.
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
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.
He's saying if they made it from the get go and used it as a pegasus variant, and they forgot to include the updated Fluttershy mold for like four years?
I’m not even being ironic when I say this: I freaking love videos where someone nerds out about something that I know nothing about. Lol if their personality shines through and they’re passionate I’ll sit and watch just about anything. I’ve seen a couple seasons of FiM but tbh I more so just enjoy hearing people talk about it.
@@EffMinusI’m glad you didn’t take offense! I should have mentioned I didn’t mean nerd as an insult. I have things I’m passionate about and nerd out about too!
Ahh blind bags, where my favourite pony had one single release and nobody is selling her online literally anywhere. I have a cute fluttershy figure but i'd *kill* For sunset.
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.
@@yandere_ninetailsI had a Zecora blind bag figure, but she didn't have a tail 😭 Like, I bought the blind bag in store, got home, opened it up, and she just completely lacked a tail! It didn't fall off in the bag or anything, she just didn't have a tail
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
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)
I'm drawing right now and I am looking at this trying to find some background noise and I was thinking "Do I really want to watch a 3-hour video about My Little pony blind bags?" And the answer is OF COURSE I DO.
Our shop used to sell discarded, errorred and wrongly manufactured blindbag figures for dirty cheap. I used to own a pink Twilight recolor with orange mane and turquoise pinky with white mane and these looked super nice. I really hope to find these one day again
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
As a swedish mlp fan, I got MAJOR nostalgia when seeing that you brought up regnbågsspelet, gosh did I play that religiously as a kid. Thanks for reminding me🤩
Despite the inaccuracies, I have huge nostalgic feelings for these blindbags. There’s something I just love with the variation, simplicity and quality(which is honestly much better than most other toys minis are that I see nowadays)
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....
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
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.
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.
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
2:08:22 I was not expecting the bin's toy bin jumpscare.. back when id collect pony stuff when i was a kid these two were so responsible for my passion. seeing it come full circle watching this for nostalgia is fantastic
@@aquazdrawzI somewhat agree with the majority but I reword it; I don't like Fluttershy because her whole character development was about her getting over shyness and rarely shows her being kind to anyone that isn't an animal, at the very least not in a memorable way
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
i remember making my grandparents buy me so many of these and i still have an ENTIRE BAG OF THEM edit: on the Rainbow Dash one it always annoyed me how her hair colors are different like she has GREEN ON HER BANGS ON THE FIGURE BUT NOT THE SHOW edit: help i have most of the 2016 redesigns
Love the thank you note at the end because I did indeed fall asleep during this video the first time then rewatched the last two hours today whilst partially just watching the video and partially also playing a video game (also I rewatched several sections so I hope this somehow contriputes to the overall watch time and this video finds insane success in the algorythm to a point where he can now finally buy more of the merchandising because there clearly isn't enough in the background)
I remember getting three MLP blind bags at my local Walmart and ended up getting Lilac Breezie, Big Wig, and Pinkie Pie (favorite MLP fim character), I also wanted Cheese Sandwich and sadly I never got him at that time :' ( but I was overall still happy for what I got though : D also Eff your flower is really lovely ❤️😊
Finally, my moment has arrived, for me, to observe an Eff deep dive! I have a soft spot for these figures. They are rather...déclassé and inaccurate, plus i dislike that they over utilize certain molds, but i adore them. I merely wish that a Cozy Glow one would have been released, since she is the best thing that occured in my life. You look cute in this episode! This video will be entertaining.
While I'm not into My Little Pony anymore, I still have a huge softspot for these early toys. I remember I pulled a Roseluck out of one of these bags, she was my favorite one along with my Lemon Hearts. The day I lost her was devastating.
Gotta thank you personally cause thanks to ur videos and many others, it’s finally inspired me to go and watch MLP FIM all the way through. As of late July 2024 I’m half way through season 4 after less than 2 weeks of binge watching.
you know what i hate most about the blindbags? the fact that a lot of them weren't just random ponies but actually returning G3 characters who were unfortunate enough to recieve the Mane 6 Recolor™ treatment that most characters got (Bumblesweet turning into a Pinkie Pie recolor, Coconut Cream an AJ recolor, Waterfire being a Twilight recolor, etc as examples) worst part is most of these characters never seen any release in the toyline other than that
i love your whole vibe, I'm not even part of this fandom and I really enjoyed this video. one note though - whenever people describe things as "lame ahh" or "dumb ahh" or whatever, they're censoring the word a$$. so your pronunciation should rhyme with that. a short a sound like bat or cat, not a long a sound like in car or far. ❤
Best believe I sat here and watched the entirety of this video💪 It was nice to go down memory lane and seeing which particular characters I had. ALSO I HAD THAT RAINBOW MAGIC GAME. I used to force my family to play with me 😝
@@EffMinus I don’t remember how the game worked 😞 I know that you had to build up the rainbow bit by bit but that’s all i remember. Other than that I know that I would cry everytime I lost 💀
Watched the entire video while I was working It was actually super interesting thank you for the entertainment and went insanely out of your way for all that Thank you again :]
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
46:48 You know what is funny about it? I have a pretty accurate figurine of Nightmare Moon, FROM A RANDOM MLP MAGAZINE. Hasbro gave her an unique mold for a cheap magazine but couldn't do it for a (what I assume is) collectioner mini set. EDIT: 1:04:19 Oh look, it's Minuette from Pony Platforming 4 that was tormented in endless loop of nightmares! EDIT EDIT: People ripping the packages, what the hell are you doing?! THESE BAGS LITERALLY HAVE A CODE THAT SHOWS WHAT PONY IT IS
The earth pony designs before the massive mold upgrades remind me of how the g3.5 mini ponies hair was like so it was possible based on those?? but MAN I had a good bunch of these and Im still peeved WaterFire, my favorite not Main character, g3 pony got stuck in only mini form but HER HAIR BECAME THE COLOR OF MAC N CHEESE AND NOT THE BRIGHT DEEP RED IT WAS!?!?
This video is so much nostalgia, i had the manticore and cut tail rarity, i had the pinkie pie baby sitting set, i remember a few of the blind box sets
I have a Pinkie piggy bank that was released around the same time that also has the big, swoopy curls. They were really pushing that design in the merch
Cherry spices is beautiful sir! One of the only mini figures i own because i saw her in a second hand bag of ponies, bought it just for her and donated everyone else! She looks like a chocolate cake with strawberry filling! One of the more unique colour combos i've seen on a pony.
Growing up I had a ton of these and I always loved them! I started collecting them again recently cuz I think they are so cute! My favorites are actually the glitter ones, especially the glitter ones with painted hair!
0:29 oh my god I had that toy. I don't think I watched MLP, but I loved horses, so. Pretty horse toy. Ive literally never thought about how it's pink. Wow
I was waiting the whole video for THIS moment 2:57:19 you don't have an idea how that pisses me off when there are plenty of characters who needed that fluttershy mold back then
Fun fact: sweetie blue (mentioned around 12:58) was almost made into a brushable, but never made it past the prototype stage. There are some prototypes floating around and they are worth a ton of money. They’re rumored to have been given to hasbro/MLP team members
actually the description of Berryshine at 40:37 is quite indicative and lore accurate since Berry Shine (also called Berry Punch by the community and Pinot Noir by Laurent Faust) is the town Alcoholic,, since her first appearance when she cant control her urge to drink the punch to Greatest gift ever where shes litterally side to side with a bottle of whine,, also,, shes the only pony during the super squeezer 3000 who isnt part of the mane 6 and that already got her drink that stay and complain,, all the other are those who havent got drink or at least we didnt saw drink,, she is the exception who is not the mane 6 in conclusion,, the descriptive is indeed lore accurate edit: Pinot Noir for those who dont know is a type of whine
fun fact, i was going to just skip to when you were doing wave 11 because i’m biased and cheese sandwich is my favorite pony of all time but after watching a good 30 seconds at the start i got invested so i watched until cheese sandwich got mentioned ANYWAYS I LOVE YOU CHEESE SANDWICH ❤️❤️ 1:51:00 this is a pretty fire video though ngl
The freaking Flutters with Dash's hair will never stop being hilarious. And as far as my faves, it was a short list; Pepperdance and Cherry Spices. They actuall have really cool concepts to me and I got them both.
I finally finished your video and it was awesome.Wave 3 was my childhood I wanted them so bad.Seeing all waves I realized I'm old.3 hours you searched for all of them,this video has a lot of effort,time.This is history and it should be in the history books.
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
This was probably the longest video I’ve actually fully watched. I remember absolutely LOVING pepperdance, mostly because she was like the only one of them I had.
i haven’t thought abt MLP for so long but i’m abt to sit through the full 3 hours of this 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🥶🥶 1:25:25 as someone who was a kid and got that pony in the blind bag, i also thought it was creepy as hell as soon as i opened it
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!!

Future archeologists are gonna find those blind bags and marvel at them.
as a kid i was the biggest hater of the recolours
same
lol me too
I hated the clear crystal ones too idk why
I would be so mad when I saw that the toy looked nothing like the one from the show
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.
If they actually made a Fluttershy mold early on then so many characters would look more accurate
They did make a fluttershy mold it was just made later on
They did make a Fluttershy mold eventually
bro they did 😭 i have both fluttershy molds
He's saying if they made it from the get go and used it as a pegasus variant, and they forgot to include the updated Fluttershy mold for like four years?

A 3-hour video on My Little Pony blind bags? I have been waiting my whole life for this moment
Imagine having your most significant personality trait boiled down to "Really likes berries."
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)
I'm drawing right now and I am looking at this trying to find some background noise and I was thinking "Do I really want to watch a 3-hour video about My Little pony blind bags?" And the answer is OF COURSE I DO.
i'd love to see what you end up drawing!
I’m honestly obsessed with the flower clip- it’s adorable
it's here to stay!
Our shop used to sell discarded, errorred and wrongly manufactured blindbag figures for dirty cheap. I used to own a pink Twilight recolor with orange mane and turquoise pinky with white mane and these looked super nice. I really hope to find these one day again
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
Thank you for making the absurdly long pony vid essays I’ve wished for this is amazing
more to come soon!
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
sounds like a fun time!
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
As a swedish mlp fan, I got MAJOR nostalgia when seeing that you brought up regnbågsspelet, gosh did I play that religiously as a kid. Thanks for reminding me🤩

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

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

1:58:35 Sugar Cake is one of Pinkie Pies clones who changed her cutie mark in order to no get blasted out of exsistance.

WAIT SHOW RARITY WAS RE DESIGNED? I WATCHED THE WHOLE SHOW AND NEVER NOTICED
Yeah I wanna know too
1:30:29 Flim's name being Flim Skim has me wish Flam's name was Flam Scam.
Maybe that was originally the plan, but I get the feeling the toyline likes to make it less obvious who the villains are.
this video is giving major inspo to take all these blind bag ponies and give them a touch up....
Thanks for the likes so far!
If you see any ponies in the video, please tag the time so I can redraw them!
That's what I always wanted to do with these figurines, getting all these different molds and remake them

can also confirm. i am now a grown man
I believe that rarity has the two colored main and the early blind bags as her early concept art included the two hair colors.

your longer videos are very comforting for me. thank you for making them 💜
you know what i hate most about the blindbags? the fact that a lot of them weren't just random ponies but actually returning G3 characters who were unfortunate enough to recieve the Mane 6 Recolor™ treatment that most characters got (Bumblesweet turning into a Pinkie Pie recolor, Coconut Cream an AJ recolor, Waterfire being a Twilight recolor, etc as examples)
worst part is most of these characters never seen any release in the toyline other than that
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
4:43 I've never noticed that change until now
my first blindbag pony was pinkie pie, i remember that her figure couldn't stand properly but i get huge nostalgia from seeing these
i love your whole vibe, I'm not even part of this fandom and I really enjoyed this video.
one note though - whenever people describe things as "lame ahh" or "dumb ahh" or whatever, they're censoring the word a$$. so your pronunciation should rhyme with that. a short a sound like bat or cat, not a long a sound like in car or far. ❤
?? Is the note necessary? Did you seriously care that much? Lmao 😂
@@diminie_chimket just helping share knowledge, did it bother you that much? 🤣
I fell asleep watching this. *I never sleep.*
Thanks man your voice for 3 hours is amazing.
Best believe I sat here and watched the entirety of this video💪 It was nice to go down memory lane and seeing which particular characters I had. ALSO I HAD THAT RAINBOW MAGIC GAME. I used to force my family to play with me 😝
how was it??
@@EffMinus I don’t remember how the game worked 😞 I know that you had to build up the rainbow bit by bit but that’s all i remember. Other than that I know that I would cry everytime I lost 💀
congrats on your transition, Magnet Bolt!
Watched the entire video while I was working
It was actually super interesting thank you for the entertainment and went insanely out of your way for all that
Thank you again :]
more hours-long ventures to come!
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
dudeeee i was just binging your eqg videos the other day wishing you had more longform
content 💀 can’t wait to put this on while drawing
46:48 You know what is funny about it? I have a pretty accurate figurine of Nightmare Moon, FROM A RANDOM MLP MAGAZINE. Hasbro gave her an unique mold for a cheap magazine but couldn't do it for a (what I assume is) collectioner mini set.
EDIT: 1:04:19 Oh look, it's Minuette from Pony Platforming 4 that was tormented in endless loop of nightmares!
EDIT EDIT: People ripping the packages, what the hell are you doing?! THESE BAGS LITERALLY HAVE A CODE THAT SHOWS WHAT PONY IT IS
The earth pony designs before the massive mold upgrades remind me of how the g3.5 mini ponies hair was like so it was possible based on those?? but MAN I had a good bunch of these and Im still peeved WaterFire, my favorite not Main character, g3 pony got stuck in only mini form but HER HAIR BECAME THE COLOR OF MAC N CHEESE AND NOT THE BRIGHT DEEP RED IT WAS!?!?
Torchwood fan spotted 🫵
33:12 I love the ladybug and cat noir references 😂
Guy roasts pony toys for 3 hours
Need the 7 hour video on why gummy has no teeth next.
This video is so much nostalgia, i had the manticore and cut tail rarity, i had the pinkie pie baby sitting set, i remember a few of the blind box sets
I have a Pinkie piggy bank that was released around the same time that also has the big, swoopy curls. They were really pushing that design in the merch
Cherry spices is beautiful sir! One of the only mini figures i own because i saw her in a second hand bag of ponies, bought it just for her and donated everyone else! She looks like a chocolate cake with strawberry filling! One of the more unique colour combos i've seen on a pony.
The berry green joke made me like this 😂 (also I appreciate what you go through to make a good video)
If twilight is a unicorn in blindbags, it confirms it was before the season she became an alicorn. Peace!
As a kid i was always mad that fluttershy didn’t get her own mold at first cause it was inaccurate and fluttershy was my favorite lol
Growing up I had a ton of these and I always loved them! I started collecting them again recently cuz I think they are so cute! My favorites are actually the glitter ones, especially the glitter ones with painted hair!
wake up babe three and a half hour video about my little pony blind bags dropped
0:29 oh my god I had that toy. I don't think I watched MLP, but I loved horses, so. Pretty horse toy. Ive literally never thought about how it's pink. Wow
I was waiting the whole video for THIS moment 2:57:19 you don't have an idea how that pisses me off when there are plenty of characters who needed that fluttershy mold back then
Fun fact: sweetie blue (mentioned around 12:58) was almost made into a brushable, but never made it past the prototype stage. There are some prototypes floating around and they are worth a ton of money. They’re rumored to have been given to hasbro/MLP team members
actually the description of Berryshine at 40:37 is quite indicative and lore accurate since Berry Shine (also called Berry Punch by the community and Pinot Noir by Laurent Faust) is the town Alcoholic,, since her first appearance when she cant control her urge to drink the punch to Greatest gift ever where shes litterally side to side with a bottle of whine,, also,, shes the only pony during the super squeezer 3000 who isnt part of the mane 6 and that already got her drink that stay and complain,, all the other are those who havent got drink or at least we didnt saw drink,, she is the exception who is not the mane 6
in conclusion,, the descriptive is indeed lore accurate
edit: Pinot Noir for those who dont know is a type of whine
LOVED THIS VIDEO!! i learned so so much about the blindbag ponys and even finally found out the names of a few i owned that i didnt know before
I dunno why but I was actually so upset when I got to the end of this video it was actually so entertaining 😭😭
fun fact, i was going to just skip to when you were doing wave 11 because i’m biased and cheese sandwich is my favorite pony of all time but after watching a good 30 seconds at the start i got invested so i watched until cheese sandwich got mentioned
ANYWAYS I LOVE YOU CHEESE SANDWICH ❤️❤️ 1:51:00
this is a pretty fire video though ngl
7:12 theres a story called "the fox and the grapes" if that counts s a fairytale
12:23 what if sweetie blue is mrs cake and thats her maiden name
Except the show confirmed that Mrs Cake’s maiden name was Chiffon Swirl so that wouldn’t really work
The freaking Flutters with Dash's hair will never stop being hilarious.
And as far as my faves, it was a short list; Pepperdance and Cherry Spices. They actuall have really cool concepts to me and I got them both.
Feathermay *l o v e s* to tickle friends!
I finally finished your video and it was awesome.Wave 3 was my childhood I wanted them so bad.Seeing all waves I realized I'm old.3 hours you searched for all of them,this video has a lot of effort,time.This is history and it should be in the history books.
Just when I think my niche is too rare for anyone else to be interested in, boom! 3 hour video. I love my inaccurate blindbag army.
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
3 hour video... exactly what i needed thanks!
This was probably the longest video I’ve actually fully watched. I remember absolutely LOVING pepperdance, mostly because she was like the only one of them I had.
based on your PFP, if i made a longer vid about TDI, would you watch it LOL
i haven’t thought abt MLP for so long but i’m abt to sit through the full 3 hours of this 😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🥶🥶
1:25:25 as someone who was a kid and got that pony in the blind bag, i also thought it was creepy as hell as soon as i opened it
