sculpts:
the sculpts on these figure's look pretty good and did a faithful job of translating the 2D art of the show into a 3D sculpt, unfortunately they have a few area's where you can clearly see that the part's of the figure were made separately from each other making it look like the head's could turn, the truth being...they don't, but you can't really notice it from far away. I like the way they made spitfire not wearing the goggles but still put them on her head, I figured they'd either have them totally on or not include them at all. bon-bon (who is called sweetie drops on the box for some reason) has a much simpler sculpt but still look's nice, the swirl effect in the hair is pretty impressive.
paint:
while the paint job is faithful to the character's design, it can be a bit sloppy and the lightning bolt's on spitfire's leg's don't go all the way around. again, they only have cutie marks on 1 side like every other pony figure ever made, but at this point I'm used to it. the paint on the mane is pretty clean for the most part, especialy the part of the mane on spitfire's head. overall, not the best, but I don't really expect perfection from this line
accessories:
nothing at all...
articulation:
also nothing...
overall:
I really like these figure's but there not without they're faults, for the most part you can really overlook the flaws they have for they're better aspects. I think if you like this line so far, you'll like this next wave of figures and I would recomend you buy at least one of them...next month
