My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Look what I just bought on eBay!

I can hardly wait for her to get here. She's my favorite character. I'm finding myself wanting to make some avvies of her too, and the rest of the characters.

Episode 6 aired yesterday, this one is titled "Dragonshy", and features my favorite character, yay!

I don't really like how she's portrayed as such a scaredy cat in the beginning though, it seems a little over the top. Just because she's so shy and sensitive doesn't mean she has to be afraid of her own shadow (literally). But being my favorite character, I'm going to be most picky when it comes to her I guess.

Everyone, go to this site, vote for your three favorite cartoons of 2010, and watch the results after you do!

And episode 7 aired Friday. This one is titled "Look before you Sleep." Applejack and Rairity are as different as night and day, and don't always get along. But a storm forces them to stay the night with Twilight. It's not exactly your typical slumber party..

Twilight was making me laugh in this episode almost as much as Pinkie Pie does in others.

Episode 8 aired last night. Wow, 8 episodes already? I think that's great! I'm still loving this series!

It's titled "Bridle Gossip". There's a mysterious pony in town, and no one's bothered to ever make friends with her because they're all afraid of her. Moral of the story is not to be prejudiced towards those different from you. You don't know what great a friend they really can be unless you make friends with them!

And while I'm at it, the little Fluttershy I ordered finally came, and I got her last Tuesday. So happy to be united after all we went through for her to get here!


Front of the box. It had been raining so you can still see a few raindrops on the packaging.

Back of the box.

Out of her box. I tried styling her hair like it is in the show but it's too curly just out of the box. I'm hoping the curls will relax a little over time.

And with Angel the bunny, in her wagon. The wagon attaches to Fluttershy's leg, which I find kind of odd for how a wagon hitches to a pony, but what should I expect from a pre-schooler's toy. I love her, she's so cute! And I think she's less than half the size of the old MLPs of the '80s, so she's also so small and delicate.

Found this on another forum, thought it was kind of funny.

Keep in mind this was a forum of mostly well adjusted adult males, and they had nothing but praise for the program.

So I guess Lauren is succeeding in her mission statement about making MLP accessible for people outside the core demographics.

Might have to give this a look.

I love the show. Lauren is a great story teller. I find the show more creative and more funny too. You can recognize the writing style (little echos of it anyway) that was in PPG and FHfIF. Check this show out!

I just saw a commercial for a talking Princess Celestia toy that says "My wings are so pretty!" I don't recall her being so egotistical in the show, lol.

"Bro-ny?" Ha ha ha, The Hub and Hasbro need to trademark that term A.S.A.P.

Well, I finally got to see a few episodes in full (Episodes 1,2,4,5 and 6 to be exact. Dunno why I skipped 3.) And I am in agreement with what most people have been saying about this show. It's pretty darn good.

Once again it's refreshing to see a show with the mindset that just because it has to have a positive message, doesn't mean it can't be entertaining at the same time.
