The smaller ones don't lack in 'quality' as such, I don't think. Just remember that they're a lot cheaper to buy, a lot smaller, and therefore, the paint jobs are not as detailed, and the hair feels different. They're definitely NOT fakes! Thanks for the pictures, Mouse. AngelHop is precious! I can't wait for her! They're all adorable, though. The minis have come on a lot from the first series! We have some more minis pics up on our Facebook page too. www.facebook.com/groups/1648321352064463/ Come join it if you haven't already!

Thanks for the pictures Mouse. I certainly agree with Angelala. I do miss the detail on the lil zelfs but they've definetly come along way from the first series and I'm sure I'll pick up a couple. I usually do.

I think some of them look smaller than past Lil because of their poses. As for sometimes not being able to tell if they are pearl, that started with at least Series 4. They started using a shiny paint on the regular ones instead of making them out of matte colored plastic. I'm just wondering what is taking so long for the Mediums to appear online. I hope it won't just be all of a sudden someone finds one in a store. Edit: At least we have more art! toyparadise.tumblr.com/post/137738335000/new-zelfs-bannerWow! My first guess about the LE was right! I just hope I can trade a Pearleen for her! Also I wonder what is up with that Rainbow Zelf in the background? It wasn't in the leaflet and it can't be a Crystal Wishes because those are in the front.

Thanks to Jolene Vella (one of the admins of Love-YourZelf FB group) for finding some more info and sharing this picture of some of the new Crystals and the Limited Edition for Zeries 6!!! EEEEEEeeeeeeek!!!! Welcome Mary Go Round (cute name) the Carousel Pony Zelf! and here's Starkle's Mini Review - New Crystal versions of Cupie (S3) and Hightail (S4 Large)!!! Wowsers! I absolutely love them!!! Looks like we are indeed getting a new purple Genie with lamp playset and we've already seem Shimma the Mystic Mermaid! Now I adore all of these, it may just be the cute artwork but they are all cute and can't wait to get this series of Crystals! Now we're still missing one (they usually come in 6's) and going by past traditions it should be a rebooted version of an original Seris 1 Zelf if they're following the pattern. But I have no idea who it could possibly be?!? Who do y'all think deserves a reboot crystal Zelf from Series 1 (I'm kinda ruling Spellinda, Vampula, Buttershy, Mermalade, Elfa and Angelala out as they've all had reboots, I'm gonna hazard a guess with two new purple Crystal Zelfs that Garny and Howlette won't be amongst this set so that leaves Lil' D (highly doubtful), Pegasue, Lunanne or Flamy possibly? Now whilst I love the name they've given the Limited Edition, Mary Go Round (adorbs!) I'm not completely sold on her yet! The artwork is cute and she is very detailed, the colours and four legs on a Zelf are throwing me a little. I don't dislike her, but I'm not head over heels about her yet, I can't wait to see her in the flesh, so to speak, or in her packaging before full judgement. Haha. I keep seeing people on FB referring to her as a centaur too, when it clearly says she's a pony which is confusing. By the way, who is that in the background? I'm assuming its a new large Zelf, looks like a white Zelf with rainbow hair and colours (green, blue, red, yellow and pink) I can't zoom in properly for details but it looks like she has a jigsaw piece on her? Is she Spectra (the autism awareness Zelf but in different colours?) or a brand new character! Either way, exciting! So far we have seen most of the Crystals, the new Mediums/Minis' and the L/E now So just confirmation of the new Large Zelfs and we have our new Zeries 6!!!! Can't wait for them!! Attachments:

Only 4 of the Crystals are in the artwork (unless that rainbowy one in the back is a Crystal and not a Super Zelf) and the one that has been seen before is one of them so there should also be another 100% original Crystal on the way.
Everyone is calling Mary a centaur because that's what you call a person with a 4 legged equine body below the waist. Moose probably went with "Pony Zelf" because most small children wouldn't know what a centaur is.

Haha, yep you're right wardah, in my quest for excitement at the new Crystals and L/E, I seemed to have lost my ability to count properly. So we are missing two Crystals then, one reboot (traditionally a Series 1, but could be any Zelf) and one brand new character!
I think it was people referring to Mary Go Round as an actual Centaur rather than what she is described as - a Carousel Pony Zelf that I meant also, if she were a traditional centaur then she'd look different (definition of a centaur is human top half and horse/equine bottom half) though I understand what your saying. Anyway she has grown on me since yesterday and I look forward to getting her for my collection!

Holy zelf!!! If Mary go round looks just as good as her artwork I think I will cry lol. I NEED her in my life, sorry pearleen you have just been replaced. And another hightail! Yay I love her, can't wait to see her all crystaled out. I personally would love to see another garny, lochlan, catsby, lullaby, or dolly.

Haha I came here to post those images catsby xD Looks like you beat me to it! I'm actually loving the art of Mary-Go-Round so I hope the execution in zelf form is just as good. I'm personally really pleased Cupie is getting another release. Her art looks adorable! I loved her first release and it'll be great to have this one on display next to crystal Angelala. I have original Angelala and original Cupie stood next to each other afterall. I personally would love Lunanne to get another release but think both her and Pegasue would both fit in perfectly (though Pegasue is rather similar to Hightail so hopefully Luna will get it) I'm also still waiting on a medium Marsha and Snowanne! The creative/artsy zelf also looks interesting. I assume they are a super. I wonder what other supers we will be getting this time round.

Thanks for the pics, Starkle & everyone else who managed to find them!
Okay, I seriously need Gar-Girl, Howlie, Frostelle, Skylanna, Noodles and Mary Go Round! Sadly none of the larges are doing anything for me this time. I'll still wait to see the last two, but I think this might well be the first series of Zelfs where I don't purchase any of the supers!

Hehe it's ok Starkle. I'll let you off Oh wow excellent find Starkle! After seeing these images it has changed my opinions. DEFO GET: Fairy-Bloom, Frostelle, Rein-doe & Wishbeam (She has her big bow! Eee <3) Mary-Go-Round. PROB GET: Angel-Hop & Howlie (These have really grown on me alot. Plus Howlie and Rein-doe are canon besties and I recently got Kitsu for my birthday who will go great next to Howlie) MAYBE: Gargirl and Moonflight (Not as wowed by Gargirl as I thought I'd be whilst Moonflight has grown on me more but will most likely pass) PASS: Peek-aboo, Skylana, Flitterbelle & Princess-Kit That's just the mediums ofcourse. I'm not really feeling any of the supers or the new CW characters but OMG NOODLES! I did NOT see that one coming. When I got Marsha I always said I would have got Noodles and Deeno if they'd be medium and this Noodles is adorable. So I'll definetly be getting him and Cupie. (This one looks more male than the original so twin brother maybe? ;D) I may even get Hightail aswell. Look at his/her hooved feet!

I'm freaking out!!! If getting a medium hightail wasn't cool enough, now we're getting a medium noodles as well, this is so cool!!! And Mary go round is freaking adorable!!! Defiantly my new favorite rare. I NEED her in my life lol. I'm really loving all the mediums and crystals in this series. Not so much on the larges, I'll probably get the artist and super puppy one, cuz hello, it's a super puppy with mask and cape lol, how cute. I need to start saving so my friend in the UK can hopefully pick them up for me. Thank you so much for the pics you guys!!!

Fairy Bloom, Angel-Hop, Flitterbelle, Frostelle, Pretty-Kit, Rein-Doe and Mary Go Round are the ones I want the most. I might want Peekaboo too but I can't tell because the pic is too small? The Crystal Wishes ones are also high on my want list.
So anyone in the UK or Australia need a Pearleen? Lol.

SO excited by these. I definitely want all of the mediums and the Crystals (Crystal Hightail?! YES!), and while I'm not 100% sure I'll pick up the larges (apart from Power Pup! Definitely want him!), I think the designs are creative and fun. I like that they went with a 'professions' theme for the larges almost!

Yeah I agree with you all. The mediums and Crystals are awesome as always, but the large Zelfs are my least fave of the new bunch! They are cute in their own way though, just very different to what we've seen before - with the clothes and new direction they're going in! Here's the last two Large's though, Cheffrey the Baker and Harmonie the Pop Star?!? (the pic's not great on this one.) Attachments:

And that's our lot! The supers are cute and I'm sure they will appeal to some but not for me. I'm not a fan of the molded clothes. I don't mind molded accessories (i.e. flowers, crowns and bows etc.) but zelfs don't need clothes in my opinion. So it looks like Marsha, Snowflake and Snowanne remain my only 3 supers.

Good choices Ziraous! and Marsha, what not even PowerPup or Cheffrey (they're BLUE Zelfs!) Haha. XD (and you have one glitter, one pearly, one glow in the dark so you need one Crystal large at least to follow tradition!) Hee hee.

XD I knew you'd say that and that is true, I do need a crystal super. But no. Though I think if I was to get a large it probably would be Cheffrey (I like baking) or maybe Artie (For all the colours) One thing I will say though, is I hope E-Vett gets a medium release one day because her mouse mold is super cute. Who's your fave of the supers?
