Heads up to anyone who has the same problem:
If your pegasus wings don't want to go in and they snap off where the joint slims down, don't worry. Even after I heated the hole up, the pegs still warped before that lip in the middle of them would go in, and both wings had that skinny part snap off. However, the thicker part of the peg still holds the wings securely in place, so don't think you've just ruined the kit. |

Horses came in!!! Got to take some pics:
Shadowfax on the run Shadowfax in trouble: Shadowfax won: I got the bandit minikit. Here is my red bandana gang: You have to let the head sit high on the post to use these bandanas. Otherwise the eyes will be covered. I didn't get the riding tack yet, but man do these CFT figs look great on these horses:

Who is Sara Francis anyway? Don't mean to offend, but I don't know why they named the rainbow unicorn Sara Francis. What's weird too is that on the website, they are now calling it "Frankie." Maybe they lost the license.

I don't know where the Sara came from, but you're likely familiar with the work of Lisa Frank. Do an image search, though you might want to have sunglasses handy.

Frankie is actually a different horse. Has a teal underbrush instead of pink or purple or whatever Sara Francis' is.

There is an article which covers the names here: OAFE - Vitruvian HACKS Mighty Steeds: Sarah Francis exclusive review. I just don't know who wrote it and how accurate it is as a source.
Explanation for the name Sarah: Quote:
The figure's colorscheme is related directly to the name: a white unicorn with rainbow hair? Boss Fight Studio couldn't very well [unique colors] just call it "the 'Lisa Frank' unicorn," now could they? So taking the name "Sarah" from the brilliant mind who suggested it and turning Frank into "Francis," they landed right in the clear! If for some reason you're unfamiliar (maybe you didn't read Ready Player One's Girl Translation), Lisa Frank is the artist behind those neon rainbow explosion folders and Trapper Keepers from the '80s and '90s, which featured kittens or dolphins or, yes, unicorns.
Quote:
Like we declared at the outset, unicorn Sarah Francis was a Kickstarter exclusive - being a backer was the only way to get her. [Frankie] If you're disappointed, however, BFS has a very similar offering, Frankie. Still a white unicorn, still got wild rainbow mane and tail, but what's gold here is silver there, and the (more extensive) shading is powder blue instead of purple. So you can get your Lisa Frank fix, but the early adopters still have something unique. Everybody wins! The Mighty Steeds are really cool little horses, but this fashionable throwback is a standout member of the herd.
