A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.

All of the usual forum rules apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

     Original OP text 
I don't know WHAT the Hell happened (I blame shenanigans) but we're going to start from scratch. Post your feels for this awesome show again! Naow!

Keep in mind that she's popped up in the toyline three times before this.

Egophiliac played a rather big part in popularizing the concept of Ponies in Socks.

This was just the start.

[up][up] Then somewhere along the line it got weird and fetish-y.

I'm sort of sad that this years' TRU exclusive was the Ponymania thing, and we're not getting a new villain this year. They could have easily repainted Shining Armor black, slapped on a cape and called him King Sombra, but Hasbro doesn't care about the good guys, let alone the bad ones. :P

I'd love to have a brushable Sombra. XD

@Gwen: Or we could get a Lord Tirek toy. It would be fun to see girls have to deal with that.

Anyway, I have to get to bed.

Boy, I'd forgotten just how much this thread slows down without new episodes.

It slows down even with new episodes. But what really doesn't help is that the most active remaining member (me) is now working full time (I started Monday).

@JT: I wouldn't bet on Hasbro making a Tirek toy, he'd probably be too expensive for them. Funko on the other hand...

@ed: True, but it creeps me out slightly more because they're horses, I guess.

[up] I think she's supposed to be dropping sometime this fall with the rest of the Ponymaina line, but she will probably get released earlier. I can never tell though because it takes forever for stuff to arrive my way. :/

I prefer my ponies naked. Wait, that's not what it sounds like... tongue

Seriously, though, socks would just get in the way of administering coat brushies.

A Tirek figure would be hard because the guy's a little top-heavy.

They have a coat under the socks?

I really like socks. Liked them before I even knew MLP FIM existed. And I'm a big fan of Chrysalis in general, so I want that freaking toy. Though I'd prefer a Luna in socks.

@ed: They could probably compensate by making his chest hollow(ish), but I don't know how good of an idea that would be.

Speaking of Tirek figures: this.

Also I didn't know that Ponymania was a thing. I'd seen some pictures of Twilight and Celestia in the outfits, but I thought it was just something an artist came up with.

I am very off-put by that Chrysalis toy.

Crysalis does not have avian wings! She has insect wings!

Just went through all four chapter books released thus far and right now Rarity and the Curious Case of Charity is my favorite. Normally, I'm not too fond of Irritation Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery plots, but this one was really enjoyable. Part of it is definitely because Rarity is usually a fun character whenever she has a major role, but I took a liking to Charity. I think the fact that she has a character beyond trying to emulate Rarity and her occasionally falling back to her original character in her attempt to emulate Rarity is what ultimately sealed it for me.

So which of the chapter books so far is everyone's favorite?
