Comic Con 2011

So, your stuck at home instead of having a blast at  Comic Con?  Are you dying to be there with Giant Pinkie Pie and the bad-ass pony posters

Well so am I! Sucks don't it?

How about the next best thing then?  I've received a bunch of images and even a video of the Tara Strong Interview from various people over the last few days!  You can find it all after the break!

Thanks to everyone who sent this stuff in!  And everyone who offered me posters :p If I get any extras, they should make awesome event prizes!
Tara Strong Panel Interview

I'm damn jealous of those tshirts!

Is that Brony shirt an official Hasbro shirt?

James said...

Those Shirts rock for sure.

I'll take that Brony shirt in a large.

That Brony T-shirt is actually pretty kick ass.

Damn, I thought I ran out of jelly when I saw those pony figures earlier, but I'm still really, really jelly.

That last picture; he's 20% faster now!

Though I think a Pinkie Pie cosplayer could benefit from the extra bounce those things give.

Anyway, is it bad that I was like "OMG NERF!" when I saw the logo in the background of one of the pics?

First pic:
"You seeing this, brah?"

The pinkie Pie girl didn't need those legs. You could see her hair from a mile away, bouncing through a sea of brown and black and blond hair

Calnos said...

Is it me, or was she just a little reluctant to do Twilight Sparkle in the first video?

Anonymous said...

She seems reluctant to do Twilight in every video I've seen.

Anonymous said...

How does she do that with her voice!

Quill said...

Dude. Props to the cosplayers.

That zombie in the background of the first photo is just...she looks intense. Dang.

Must have that shirt. Either that or a Ford Mustang BOSS 302 Laguna Seca with that badge on it. U have to give me one.

Anonymous said...

The last cosplayer is now my second favorite, after the Hoity Toity from a month or so ago.

Simple said...

Blarg I saw someone wearing that brony shirt, I didn't know they were selling them there! I would have picked one up!

Save your money everypony. Give up the morning Latte and save up to come to comicon next year. It's SO much fun.

I can't shake the feeling that the exclusive G1 pony sort of drove a golf cart into a Hot Topic and crashed into everything.

@Calnos

It seemed like she was just teasing the crowd a little. Love how the place erupted when she finally did it.

Marcoooootje1 said...

Damnit, I hate myself for not being at Comic con!

Anonymous said...

I like how the Fluttershy cosplayer isn't looking at the camera. Very in character for her.

Athen said...

Next year maybe...

Desktop1030 said...

I would die for that Mustang Brony shirt. Is that from Hasbro or some other party?

And I love 1:05 in that video, that reaction is almost as awesome as E3 04.

Cereal Velocity said...

Uh, that Brony shirt. That pony is missing a back leg. How did no one notice this? :B

Crimson Valor said...

Once I learned the scope of how much pony would be there, I swore I'd have given both my legs to go. Unfortunately, tickets had sold out WEEKS prior. Sigh.

Posters... yeah... I asked my boss to grab me one, email me when he succeeded... he's been frighteningly quiet.

Register now :} before it sells out for next year (and it will)

DJ RBDash said...

That first Rainbow Dash cosplayer, I meet her this year at AX, she was cute~

Ekevoo said...

Aw, Tara Strong only made voices. I'd like to hear her using her own words a bit too. I really enjoyed the video where Ashleigh Ball did both.

Great coverage though. The RBD "Bronies" shirt made me droll! DO WANT!

rabid-turtle said...

First Rainbow Dash cosplayer looks cool those shoes are pretty badass.

Anonymous said...

Every one of those cosplayers was the nicest person. And the dude on stilt-legs was converting poeple all day long . he had these cards from brony.org. And he was handing them out to everyone ( He must have had thouands )

Calnos said...

Slightly unreleated, but IGN reported on the Transformers Prime panel and someone (I suspect a fellow brony searching for what little of pony news they can) asked about a Transformers/My Little Pony crossover

IGN article
http://tv.ign.com/articles/118/1183380p1.html

"A fan oddly asked if we might see a crossover with My Little Pony, which resulted in the show's staff speculating on zombie ponies. "

Is there a video of this panel floating around? Curiosity is getting the best of me.

I assume none of this is happening at the New York Comic Con later this year?

how come nopony has pointed out that that is the same pinkie that seth green was seen with

I haven't ever been to NY Comic-Con. Perhaps we should arrange a get-together ( only this time there needs to be a big after-hours party )

@Cereal Velocity

It's a spoof on the Ford Mustang logo, which similarly hides one of the hind legs.

@Cereal Velocity

The horse in the Ford Mustang logo also only has one hind leg.

That brony shirt.....all of my WANT!!

AWWWWW....DO WANT.....

Laurence Brown said...

Awesome stuff, Seth! Thanks to everybody who sent stuff in!

I truly wish I was there. I have to admit though, the temptation would be powerful to simply spend way too much time at that booth, especially when there is just so much to see and do there. (Also, much temptation to have somebody snap a picture of me riding the giant Pinkie Pie statue. The cost of getting myself out of the trouble pulling such a stunt would put me in would be too great, but still...)

Also: Tara Strong, yay! Ponies on the big Hasbro display sign? Please somebody tell me that they were showing actual episodes! Brony shirt in the mustang style? I'm kind of actually leaning towards 'meh' on it (I think they could have done a better job on the parody of the mustang logo).

All in all, some awesomely sweet stuff being shown here. Thanks again to everyone who shared what they saw!

ElectricZoNe said...

Holy Shit! That's so badass! So much want!

James Corck said...

Yeah, this is effing awesome.

Now, I don't know what you guys might think, but I will say this is better than going to comic con. It's free, you can stay barefeet in your house, enjoy the AC, and don't have your eardrums hammered with ambient noise, loud music and people shouting.

Yeah, you miss on meeting the celebrities and taking pictures at kickass cosplays, and all the free merch and other activities, but I waged the possitive aspects are more than the negative (imo, anyways).

Anonymous said...

Those G1 ponies are the exclusive con ponies, like how they have exclusive action figures for other franchises people can buy. Now why they aren't custom G4 ponies considering everything else they're promoting at the booth is G4, but even G1 tolerating ol' me isn't exactly sure what to make of the design. It doesn't really scream Comic-Con, it just screams...something.

The Nightmare Moon and Fluttershy cosplays are awesome, however.

Anonymous said...

I dunno. Having been to a few fairly large cons myself, I have to say that rather be at a con myself, then watch videos of other people's experiences. Yeah, its loud, long lines, annoying people, ect, but its more fun then watching the con through someone else's eyes, because chances are, you're not interested in all the same things they are.
Plus, you never know when something totally unexpected and shit-yourself awesome could happen.

Heya bronies. If anyone is willing to get me one of those posters I can offer them one of the special European only ponies: Rainbow Flash or Daisy Dreams. I'm in the US so shipping will be pretty standard.

E-mail me at bryanmischke[at]yahoo.com if you are interested.

M1Abrams said...

I just bought one of those Brony shirts, the second I saw it I KNEW I HAD TO HAVE IT. It's on order and with luck I should have it within a week or so. Gonna wear it all the time, even to work!

I'm so envious of people who got to go, I wanted to be there so bad. Hopefully next year I can attend.

Normally I do not regret living in Japan. Today is not normally. So very jealous!

Giant Pinkie Pie, so want.

I think that Tara Strong doing Twilight Sparkle's voice got the biggest response.

Looking over the toy case. There is Pink Princess Celestia and I see Applejack's pink truck. [Looks at lower level] What the -BLEEP- is that!?

The posters I want but can't get.

Are those official shirts or fan made ones?

I so wish I had been able to go to Comic Con.

Wow, this giant Pinkie Pie is pretty cool. *looks at the woman to the left* HOLY SHIT!

G3 ponies? Do not want,want a new,redesigned style,that resembles the current G4 generation as closely as posibile.

DO WANT PPG MEETS MLP:FiM

I have a Mustang GT. The first one to make that brony logo into something that can replace the one on the front of my car gets my money. You listening, Hasbro?

Derpy Hooves said...

Grrr, I wanted to attend so much, but just couldn't swing it. And it's kinda far for me. Sad face. :( The interview with Tara looks like it was pretty fun too. She's so versatile with her voice, but I guess that's why she has so much work. lol And there are those posters, yayy~ :)

SO. JELLY.

I'm sad.

I bought that Brony shirt today. It's not official.

TARA STRONG WAS THERE? I missed her. crap.

Anonymous said...

@Anonymous

Special Art ponies are G3. They've always been G3 and Hasbro promised they'd continue to be G3 until collectors said otherwise. They're planned out nearly a year in advance. Toy design isn't some instant process. It takes time. I believe they've taken into account the G4's popularity and are considering special G4s for next year. So keep your hooves crossed.

disneyfreak said...

I have been on Ebay all day trying to get one of those posters, I've bid on at least 12 of them and someone always out bids me or the poster goes out of my price range (I am not willing to pay $25 for a poster no matter how awesome it is)

Rest assured, you'll see me again with the wings and stilts(and the wig I found like10 minutes after the meetup) at Otakon, GenCon, Dragon*Con, and NYCC.

Luna said...

It's actually funny, because she was making a comment about getting close to people and touching and soap and stuff on Twitter, and then she goes, 'touch you all, touch all of us, oh, and touch you.'

That's the one thing Scott Ramsoomair always tries to avoid at any con.
