Phoe Returns From 2nd Banishment, Finds Ponies (An Unboxing Post)



So, it turn out Seth was still really upset about the whole "tying him up and stealing the blog out from under his feet" thing. So much so that he locked me in a darkened room for a whole week with nothing but bran muffins and the occasional cupcake to eat. Truth be told I'm not even sure this post will go up. But when he finally let me out on good behavior, I found a surprise waiting for me at my front door. Just sitting there, for I don't know how long (thank you so much, United States Postal Service) was a box with a little note on it telling me I could keep the contents if I promised to give them a good home and play on my video game collection. As a sign of good faith to this generous individual whom we shall call 'Luke', I enclose the following photos:
During my time in "The Room" I kind of forgot how to work a camera, so some of these pictures are a little bit terrible, and for that I apologize. At least I remembered the box this time! Addresses have been hastily removed to protect the innocent, and also me. I'm just gonna clear out and let the photos do the talking, but to address the obvious questions: these ponies are posing on stacks of video games because the very awesome brony who gave me them asked that I include them instead of my crappy countertops or floor, no that is not the full collection, yes hours of my life have disappeared in a flurry of mane brushing, and no, I do not regret one second of it. All of my thanks to Luke, who did this out of the blue and for no other reason than to make me smile. It worked, and big time. Now, enjoy the images!
Look, a box! With ponies! This can only mean good things.


I kept the blanket they were wrapped in. You know, in case they get cold



Lyra and Bon Bon, together forever on top of an old tv.



Lyra came out with a bit of a case of bed mane. It has since calmed down.



I'm actually a little afraid to brush Bon Bon, because she's so well styled already...



Shipping ponies in front of a much newer tv. D'aww!

Bombedrumbum said...

kelzae said...

Shadow Heart said...

Lyra and Bonbon

What can go wrong here?

I'll answer that

Nothing, cause it's perfect

The Pretender said...

PHOE? YOU HAVE GUILTY GEAR FOR THE WII? I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!

ThemsAllTook said...

Your PlayStation game collection is remarkably similar to mine. Two copies of Final Fantasy VII, though?

Arothyss said...

Glad to have you back, dear. I do hope you behave yourself. I'd hate for anypony to end up with massive burns and scarring because they tried to upstage Seth & Co. again...

On a brighter note, that was awesome of "Luke" to give all of that to you! I hope you like gaming, cause that collection DESERVES some attention! Oh, and those ponies look very nice. You've worked wonders on their manes!

Cheers!

Lord Bloomberg said...

So Phoe, are we still going to do that whole, "Tie Seth and Cereal up again but make sure they don't get out this time(which again, totally wasn't my fault) and raise an army for World Domination" thing we talked about earlier?

Azure said...

Phoe is back from banishment, brushie brushing Lyra's mane? All is right with the world.

brilliantspecter said...

Beautiful!
Also, I find myself quite envious of your SNES collection. That's a lot of games!

DooDawDay said...

Somepony finally shipped a ship! XD
Now they have to do it over seas so they can ship a ship on a ship.

Ikusa GT said...

INB4 Phoe goes on a rope Rampage.

Phoe said...

@ThemsAllTook

One's black bordered. Was I supposed to not buy the non-greatest hits version just because I already owned the more common one? Pfft.

Arothyss said...

@Lord Bloomberg
I hear apple wood has a lovely smell when it burns...

Yes, I'm on Seth and Cereal's side.

Dublio said...

Welcome back Phoe. :)

Bombedrumbum said...

@OhYouFoal

Oh you foal....she already has a fiancé!

Bombedrumbum said...

So, Phoe, whatever happened to your blog? Why dont you just post all of your amazing stuff there?

WeirdPonyGuy said...

SNES and FFV? Just had a nerdgasm.

Stormcaller said...

Welcome back Phoe. Don't worry, we kept the resistance active while you was away.

Tho, things did get ugly for a time when we ran out of ice cream. But luckily we ate Sir Robins Mistrials, and there was much rejoicing.

Ragneki5880 said...

Awesome collection ya got there.

OhYouFoal said...

@Bombedrumbum

Joking part of me says: Naturally, I was kidding of course

Other Part of Me says: Okay.jpg

Tired Part of Me says: This is why you should be in bed.

On topic, The Phoe Republic will rise again. When that day comes, we 'will' be ready, Seth and Cereal will fall. On that day, there will be brushies and ice cream for everypony once more.

Discord said...

TODAY IS A HAPPY DAY CHOCOLATE RAIN FOR EVERYPONY!!!

MPerce said...

Welcome back, Phoe! Glad the banishment went alright.

Bombedrumbum said...

@OhYouFoal

Let's see, New Lunar Republic, Solar Sisterhood, Phoe's army, Sethisto's sugar miners....


Wow, a lot to choose from

Bombedrumbum said...

@Discord dont gou mean brushies and ice cream? Or is the chocolate rain acting as the syrup for the ice cream?

Bombedrumbum said...

@Discord you have (1) new follower on the previous post

Eeveexpert said...

Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime: Echoes, Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Paper Mario: TTYD?

Excellent choices in games there, Phoe. Excellent choices.

Discord said...

@Bombedrumbum syrup and chocolate milk

The non exploding variety...

Stormy Seas said...

I see a Zoids games in the background. Phoe's awesomeness factor just went up.

reshenkusaga said...

PRINCESS PHOE IS BACK \o/

Eddmario said...

Phoe's back? I'll go get the ducktape, rope, and pitchforks. I know just the place with a small closet.

Pyrobug said...

You don't ask why when it's Lyra and Bon Bon~ Do dee do doooo, do dee do do, do de doooooo~

Oh hey, Phoe's back. Well, I guess the insanity side of balance has been restored.

*reads above comment* Oh my god it's true, Zoids. I love Zoids.

Raven said...

Sorry Cereal and Seth, but...MY FAV BLOG PONY IS BACK! =D

Eddmario said...

@Pyrobug
What does my comment have to do with Zoids, whatever the Fluttershy that is?

nathandash said...

Phoe plays final fantasy?

PHOE IS NOW MORE AWESOME.

AND DARE I SAY IT, 20% COOLER!

ColoradoMillenium said...

6 Months later... "Bwahahaha I will conquer everything! First EqD, next, THE WORLD!!!" -Phoe. don't do it again please Phoe, it's bad for you.

Mattwo said...

I see a copy of FFIII that has the FFV logo taped on to it...Shouldn't that be IV?

Mattwo said...

Or is that the japanese version of FFV and you taped the american logo to it?

Mattwo said...

...no wait, that's the japanese version, with failing adhesive.

Pyrobug said...

@Eddmario

Other above comment. ...other, other above comment.

Gummy said...

Huzza! Phoa is back and loves FF7! Free classy cola for all!

Timer Rabbit said...

I SPOT .HACK AND PERSONA 4!!!

Anyway, awesome BG ponies make awesome pairs~

Phoe said...

@Mattwo

There's an extra label on the top that I added so I could tell what it was from the top. Super Famicom carts don' have a top label like SNES carts do.

Jecht said...

HA! I knew Phoe had great taste in games. That sample of PS1/2 games is nice - just look at all those Final Fantasies!

Mattwo said...

@Phoe

So I guess the question I should be asking is why you have a RPG that has it's text completely in japanese?

Can you read japanese?

jeffbridges said...

Eternal Darkness...I wasn't sure about you, but all right...all right.

Sigma Silver said...

What a cruel torture! Locking somepony up in a small room.. and then feeding her alot of bran. Think about it.

Rekiara said...

Those ponies look great. I'd say something about games, or whatever, but I can't get over how awesome the ponies are =D

Sindri said...

Princess Phoe is back?
With Brushies?
yay~

Topsy Kretts said...

dat picture... SO MUCH CUTENESS!

Xeddrief said...

Completely misread 'bran muffins' as 'brain muffins'...

Videogame9 said...

@Xeddrief
Phoe is not a zombie.

...right?

Octavia said...

That pic is so adorable and fitting. :> Congrats on the new addition to the collection. lol

Luna said...

And everypony called me mad for demanding Seth return sister Phoe.

And when she becomes a zombie in a month, who's going to be laughin then?

Pinkie Pie said...

@Discord
Hooray! Chocolate rain!

ZeMajicks said...

Okay, this is the right post. xD

Okami and Twilight Princess, Phoe is best blog pony hands down.

Greenf0x said...

The true ruler of EqD had returned, rejoice.

*Royal Canterlot Voice* OH MOST WONDERFUL OF DAYS

CitationNeeded said...

Phoe, I'm disappointed Wii Play is in your collection.

Arothyss said...

Why is everypony going berserk over her return? I'm glad to hear she's safe and sound too, but srsly? I don't get the hype...

And what's with all these factions? Can't we all just get along plzzzz? No need to get duct tape, pitchforks, etc. Love and tolerance, bronies. Seth and Cereal do a fine job of running this site and I'm sure having Phoe back will add greatly to its quality.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going back to my pile of jewels for a nap.

Sir Le Flour said...
