EQD Exclusive: Rainbow Dash To Marry Kitchen Sink


(EQD) - Springtime is always cited as the time of year when love is at its most potent; it would seem that no pony is an exception to this old adage.

According to a source close to the rainbow-maned pegasus from Cloudsdale, who refused to be identified as anything else than The Chicken, Rainbow Miriam Dash has unannounced plans to be married to an unidentified model of a kitchen wash basin. The speed demon had finally chosen this particular brand after striking out in many previous relationships, the unnamed source told Equestria Daily.

"I'm so happy for her," the source quipped to our reporter, seemingly unable to contain a small laugh at the thought. "I wish her only the best of luck. That sink has such a nice shade of chrome."

Our reporters were unable to reach Rainbow Dash for comment, who simply moved herself up to a higher cloud and continued to nap.

We'll have more on this story as it develops.

Ponies Heading to Eraseez


It looks like ponies are invading yet another new toy line, or at least a new eraser line.  Bulls-i-Toy has apparently picked up the license to produce pony toys for their Eraseez product.  From the looks of it, they are collectable erasers that you can pull apart and reconnect with different ones for multiple designs.

There are a few youtube video examples for the other toy lines that are currently available.  For erasers, they definitely have some pretty good quality!

Right now they have only shown up on the sneak peek page, but hopefully we will see them in stores soon.

Semi-Risque Dress Up Pinkie Pie Game


Hello night crowd! It looks like we are moving into the territory of dress up games!   This one in particular is pretty... risque, with some semi-saucy choices in clothing for our party pony here.  If it was a drawfriend post, it would almost need a saucy tag.  Though I have to say, I'm liking my Amazonian Pinkamena. She needs a bow and spear to complete the set though! Oh well..

Anyway, check it out here!

33 Avenue Miquelon Interviews Tabitha St. Germain



33 Avenue Miquelon, a fashion blog, has posted an interview with the voice actress who plays the best pony that everyone loves unconditionally, Tabitha St. Germain. If you didn't fancy Tabitha before this (and shame on you if you didn't), this might turn your opinion around. It's a fantastic read all around, and Tabitha is very open and informal throughout.

I won't spoil it with quotes. I'll just say that the owner of this blog has adopted Rarity as her unofficial mascot. Go read the interview!

Friendship is Magic Takes the Top Place on Netflix + Season Two Added After the Finale!


Just in case you were all wondering how our little ponies were doing off in the land of streaming video, it looks like they have completely dominated! Friendship is Magic has taken the top slot for most popular TV Show, and third place in the popular picks section.

I don't think kids programming usually does that well over there.  I guess you guys really were waiting for something other than iTunes!

Hasbro also released their official announcement on the subject of bringing several Hub shows to Netflix.  It's short, to the point, and doesn't give any real juicy details, but you can check that out here.   

Update: They do mention that after the season finale, we will be seeing Season 2 of MLP added to the list. 

Now lets go take over popular picks!  What is this third place nonsense?

Flash: Dusk Shine is my Bestest Friend / Element of Beauty / Pinkie's Jam! / I Think I Can
