• Cereal Receives a Pony Shot Glass



    Well, Cereal and the other two responsible blog authors, in any case.

    Yep! We were all once again gifted some free pony stuff by a very, very generous pony by the name of Bermuda Brony, to avoid using his real name- just in case. He's actually in Bermuda, so, the name makes sense! You're awesome, BB! I would just like to inform you that it is indeed the best thing you could possibly fill with your favorite adult beverage. Or soda, depending on your age.

    In the spirit of totally embarrassing yet another kind and talented member of the community who was nice enough to give me free stuff, I have taken the liberty of unboxing his package for you all to see.

    Pictures galore, ordering and pricing information, and Seth's glass as well after the break!




    So, there I was, minding my own business, when this box came out of nowhere actually the postman brought it to me. I was kind of confused because I hadn't ordered anything- and then I remembered about the glass. So, of course, I was giddy with excitement. Also, for some reason, the names were pixelated out. It was very strange. It came that way, I promise.



    You don't say, box! That's really neato.



    Time to open this thing! Under the paper, there was... a box! Whoa.




    And then it exploded everywhere not really.



    And then out came a Rarity glass! At this point I was still trying to figure out the best way to photograph the glass so I could get the wax applied to the etch to show up, so excuse the bad photography for a moment.







    Here it is next to my Applejack toy for comparison purposes.



    It was at this point that I totally derped and remembered that I could just put it in the windowsill and, lo and behold, it worked much better for capturing the etch.





    Seth's glass also arrived. We would have pictures of Phoe's glass, which was etched with both Rainbow Dash and Lyra, but sadly she doesn't have a working camera.

    That's your cue to tell her to get one.






    And that's the glasses! Like I promised, here's the ordering information, taken straight from the email:

    I have actually started selling the glasses now but I don’t have a ‘store front’ site or anything, but anyone who wants to order one of the existing cuts or even custom glasses can send contact me at bermudabrony@derpymail.org, I’m charging $12 for shot glasses and $15 for Rock Glasses (I’ll be getting larger glasses soon), and the shipping to the USA usually ranges around $7 for a single glass in a box to $25 for five glasses in a box. Also since I’m out of the USA I’m only using Paypal to handle the transactions.

     Once again, a big thank you to Bermuda Brony for his generosity.

    11. I would feel guilty drinking out of that.

      ReplyDelete
    12. According to my dictionary, pony is another word for shot glass.

      ReplyDelete
    13. Damn it I want these, but I can't order any.

    17. Welp. Now I need to assemble large quantities of money so that I can get a collection going.

      ReplyDelete
    18. Now you can get drunk in style!

      It can be not only magical, but great and powerful as well.

      And of course, with Dashie on it, it will also be 20% cooler!

    19. The big thing I'm getting out of this post is that both of you have nicer houses than me. Even if I get a camera I don't have any awesome countertops to show mine off on. Maybe if I put it on top of the Super Nintendo?

      ReplyDelete
    20. Heck, that's just my desk.

      My messy, messy desk.

    21. Phoe! Get a camera! I want to see said shot glass with the two best ponies on it!

    29. Where's Tekaramity's glass? :(

      ReplyDelete
    30. Larger glasses...rock and shot are fine, I'd be after cocktail, wine, beer and fluted champagne glasses if that's what they mean by bigger.

      What?

      I don't have a problem!

      ReplyDelete
    31. Classy. Rarity will haunt you if you drink anything that cost less than 50$ out of that glass you know.

      Expect funny looks when you go to high end bars and you've brought your own glass.

      You know...
      I think you have a problem.
      The problem being NOT owning one of these fantastic glasses!

      ReplyDelete
    33. Really happy to see my stuff going to good use. :D I still need to decide what I want to get on my glass, though.

      ReplyDelete
    34. The Rarity glass is best.

      ...You DO realize drinking will destroy precious brain cells... right? DON'T FLAME ME!!! Just... just throwing that out there...


      All other things aside, the glasses themselves are pretty neat. I also definitely like the cameos in the unwrapping pics. ;)

      Although you'd have to pay me to actually drink the Rainbow Dash shot.

    38. Bermuda Brony, that's hilarious.

      ReplyDelete
    39. Hmmm, if it helps, I'll post what I would like to buy. 7 Glasses. One for each of the mane six + Spike. Every glass would optimistically be around 2 cups in capacity... Ane the package maybe to cost around... 30 Dollars.
      If it was posted on EQD that I could buy this, I would follow any links... And of course: Buy it!

      ReplyDelete
    40. What, that was the first name that came to mind ;)

      I'm just glad they all arrived safely, always fun packing glass :p

      ReplyDelete
    41. Skylark, the contact info for the seller is at the end of the blog ;)

      ReplyDelete
    42. Oh my god. I need a rock glass with Fluttershy's "You are going to LOVE ME" face. This is happening RIGHT THE FUCK NOW.

      ReplyDelete
    43. Oh man, or what about Photo Finish?
      SO MANY CHOICES.
      I am going 45 kinds of crazy right now.

    44. @Senn555

      I like how nobody else seemed to realize this as well. Good on ya for thinking of all the blogponies

    45. I don't think any of the 'custom merch' sellers linked here on Daily Equestria have permission from Hasbro truthfully.

      If he's savvy however he could uphold the premise that each and every glass he's selling is a 'custom etch by customer request', in that case he's not selling a brand, only applying art for the customer. In that case Hasbro has as much power over that as they do stopping someone from airbrushing rainbow dash on their Car.

      Imo at least.

    47. The snippets of your battle station that we can see look divine. I'm jelly - mine's such a mess of wires, controllers, dust, and mountains of empty cans and bottles. Also, I'm totally ordering these for brony friends' birthdays.

    49. So getting one of these. Rainbow Dash or Big Mac would be awesome to drink with, so they would be ideal designs.
