The recent ponies to be released as Vinyl Figures from Funko are: Maud Pie and Cheese Sandwich. Both of these characters have appeared on My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic as featured guests. The early release is always exclusive to Hot Topic and months from now other shops and stores will get these. Until then, if you want them, head on over to Hot Topic!
[Funko Vinyl figure: Cheese Sandwich, glitter variant]
1 out of 12 of these figures made are a glitter variant. The glitter ponies appear in a jelly-like coloring that's see-through and glitter chunks inside. I have not been able to find Maud Pie in glitter form yet, but I have found 2 Cheese Sandwich glitters!

He looks cute and very well done! I've never had an issue with a glitter variant from Funko when it comes to these pony vinyls. On the regular versions, I have noticed some botched paint jobs, but the glitters always look nice.

These figures cost $18.50 each at Hot Topic. Like I said before, I have not been able to find Maud Pie's glitter variant yet, so I have not taken either of these out of the box. If I end up trading 1 of these away for Maud Pie, then I'll most likely keep my figure in its box for a while. However, I end up keeping both of them, then for sure one of them will come out of the box. I will update the blog in the future on this decision.

In the past I have had difficulties getting these glitter figures from Hot Topic associates, but this time around it was a piece of cake! I walked in and the sales associate told me they had 2 and handed me both of them to purchase, and I walked out. I'd love to hear your finds on these figures and your experiences!
