[Avallon]

$3.99 a pop.

This feels a bit exploitative.

 

[Tizoc]

Welcome to 3 months ago :V
I'd get Pinkie Pie but I'm waiting for a sale.

 

[Chû_Totoro]

How many cents per pixel?
Seriously why people buy this I will never understand

 

[Bloodrage]

PSN just got a little creepier.

 

[MaximumSpider]

$3.99 each??

 

[Baliis]

Did they ever let you change your avatar on vita and ps4 to things other than the defaults? I feel like I remember having to use my ps3 to do it last time.

 

[manzo]

Oh god

 

[OSHAN]

$3.99 each??

Better pay if you want a pony.

 

[Avallon]

How many cents per pixel?

About 2.5.

 

[Marcel]

$3.99 each??

These ponies are high-maintenance. They don't want no busta.

 

[Creaking]

The best part is that whenever you see one of these, you'll know that the person wearing it spent $3.99 on a single avatar.

 

[Scientificreason]

Megaton right here. This will give ammo to the sony ponies trolls.

 

[BobTheFork]

I'm keeping my stock, creepy, smiling green turd PSN avatar forever!

No, and it's ridiculous.

 

[Jito]

This feels a bit exploitative.

Those little girls are getting ripped off!

 

[Adaren]

That third one is pretty fabulous.

 

[SerTapTap]

Are $4 avatars a common thing? I think mine was like 50 cents

 

[RGamer2009]

Man...$3.99?!

That seems a tad expensive for a little picture...

 

[Timeless]

The first two look like they use the marketing assets from 2010. Really low-effort.

 

[Sithlord77]

Did you know you can put use any pic from the Internet as your avatar using the PS app. Just save it to your photos and upload using the app profile settings. So you could even save the pic in the OP and use that without paying for the same pic off PSN

 

[joecanada]

I didn't know my little pony was still a thing till we got my friends son to admit he watched it (he's only 6 so pretty funny that he knew to deny it but still appropriate for him to watch)...

... wonder how many bronies have these and would pay anything for them.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

$3.99 each??

pony up

 

[DC1]

My daughter is going to feak out!

 

[friskykillface]

i thought they had these kind of avatars when the fan base was super huge

some of these companies don't know how to make money , it boggles my mind.

 

[Gamesadict]

$3.99 each? And they use the stock vectors? What a joke.

The Xbox MLP avatars, now that's how you do it. At least they use an episode for one of the packs.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

$4 each for tiny pictures of animated ponies.

 

[Avallon]

Those little girls are getting ripped off!

I don't think it's little girls...

 

[Supermanisdead]

I didn't know MLP was still a thing lol

 

[SerTapTap]

It's actually really common to see them use pre-show prints for stuff like this. I almost mentioned that Rarity looks wrong. It's funny because the show is Flash so it must be pretty easy to have their animators whip something up but the shitty "beta" ones keep showing up.

I refuse to pay $4 for anything less than show-accurate ponies.

Spoiler

Seriously why are they $4

That picture will only show to "real name" friends I think, and thus only on PS4 I guess, I don't think the others support that stuff at all.

 

[kulapik]

You think little girls watch My Little Pony? that's cute.

 

[MaximumSpider]

pony up

SHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTT

 

[SkullHydra]

$4, and Rarity's head looks like garbage?! No deal.

Spoiler

I'd do it for Derpy though.

 

[WickedCobra03]

This can and will go well... :/

Ugh, I bought a like 3 dollars worth of icons on PS3 when they were like 49¢ per pack for PS+ members, or free. But that's kind of nuts per icon.

 

[Marcel]

Have you considered letting this guy

into your life

 

[Nowhere Man]

$4?! Most avatars are already way overpriced at 50 cents considering most of them are old promotional art cropped down to postage stamp size.

 

[The God]

This is very unfortunate.

 

[EASTC0AST_GH05T]

beast, about to scoop one up.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Those prices are the craziest thing. I guess they know people will pay them.

 

[Augemitbutter]

these are more expensive than swimsuits in DOA.

 

[Marcel]

these are more expensive than swimsuits in DOA.

Well some people prefer Team Ninja 3D dolls and some people prefer ponies. Take from that what you will.

 

[Negator]

3 years too late and 3 dollars too expensive.

 

[brandonh83]

Four dollars? What the fuck guys.

 

[Jito]

You think little girls watch My Little Pony? that's cute.

Whoosh

 

[TrouzzzerSnake]

pony up

Thread won!

 

[djplaeskool]

Sony Ponies for real tho.

I'll never give up my Felicia avatar.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

The Bronie console? Sounds about right when you look around at the current fanbase. I could see it.

 

[maouvin]

Don't fall for this guys, the last batch of avatars launched for $4 too, but got dat price drop

Spoiler

to $2

just a month later.

 

[Owwari]

inb4 ahegao ponies.

 

[SkullHydra]

Sony Ponies for real tho.

Hehehe.

 

[HUELEN10]

I am tempted to get Rarara or Tia, but I don't want anyone thinking I'm a brony or something; I hate misrepresentation. That being said, it's not like I use the friends feature on consoles so who gives a shit?

Then again, I do have a PSN card and tend to buy multiplats on non-Sony hardware, so I might get them.
