Well, this one kind of came out of left field.
Yet Another Pony Podcast did a special toy episode where they cover a wide array of pony toys. The Canterlot playsets and the papercraft sets were some of the ones they covered, and you can find that podcast here.
But also included with the email was an interesting addition- an interview a friend of the team did, by the name of Midnight Dreams, with Ellen McLain, the voice of GLaDOS in Valve Software's Portal and Portal 2. They asked her some questions about ponies, and she said she'd gladly (ha) voice a pony if Studio B asked her to.
You can find the video after the break.

VastaKustutaEllen McLain. That's an interview from nowhere.
VastaKustuta>GLaDOS pony
VastaKustutaallofmymoney.jpg
Ellen McLain + ponies would be amazing.
VastaKustutaA pony with GLaDOS's vocie... DO WANT
VastaKustutaELLEN MCLAIN. OUT OF FUCKING NOWHERE.
VastaKustutaI demand for this to be done.
VastaKustuta"Look, we both said some things that you're about to regret. But let's put our differences behind us. For Science. You monster."
VastaKustutaTwilight: Uh... come again?
@MetalGearSamus Agreed
VastaKustuta*PINKIE GASP*
VastaKustutaDO EET!
VastaKustutaIf I recall corectly there was a TF2 voiceclip where the Announcer (played by Ellen Mclain for those who don't know) says "A friendship has been detected, and will be eliminated!" Just thought I'd throw that out there.
VastaKustuta@Star Winged Brit: These are mostly friendship-related: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QS4XgyUS9_0
VastaKustutaShe also voiced the overwatch ya know. (or over something... from half-life 2.) so she could be POnYOS, The Announcemare, and the evil alien overlord of equestria!
VastaKustutaoh god. Season 3 episode:
VastaKustutaTwilight creates a computer that she designed to help her study friendships more efficiently and also pass on the information to others who might need to learn. The computer ends up becoming too smart and gains intelligence, however it can't feel true emotions and therefore true friendship. It installs itself into a mobile capsule and travels the world trying to remove all emotion from everything and becomes a recurring villan for the rest of the season.
Bonus points if it can turn into a giant robot.
You did WHAT?
VastaKustutaAh, yeah. I'm glad she touched on some points of acting and singing and how they're aren't always so similar like some think they are. And how you don't just leap into acting or the like suddenly, takes time and learning. lol One of my little pet peeves I suppose.
VastaKustutaBut this is a fun little interview. Couldn't really make out her voice very well unfortunately when she does it in-character, but I'm glad they seem to be having a good time.
I want this. So much!
VastaKustutaWell, this is awesome, out of nowhere, but still awesome.
VastaKustuta@8:22 anon will the robot be able to use deadly neurotoxins and will her morality core get destroyed?
VastaKustutaAttention employees...
VastaKustutaFriendship ends in one day.
-The Administrator
This is so awesome. So awesome. Awesome.
VastaKustutaI'm the host of YAPP, and an associate of Pony Chat Mobile. When Midnight Dreams came to me and the rest of the crew with this interview we were stunned. It's so awesome that he managed to talk to her about MLP. So glad to see this on EQD, and we really hope Studio B contacts her for Season 3.
VastaKustutaSuper cool!
VastaKustutawhat's with the goggles?
VastaKustutaIt's been a looooooooong time.
VastaKustuta~Scratch
@colt classic
VastaKustutaIt's his thing, He DJs for a local nightclub and they are an accessory of his, he also rocks them at cons. His OC Pony also has goggles.
Hahaha, oh man, PONyDOS for Season 3 pl0x!! :D
VastaKustuta@colt classic
VastaKustutaThey make me look cool... (I really AM the guy from the video...)
THERE ARE NO WORDS FOR HOW MUCH I NEED THIS
VastaKustutaMY BODY IS READY STUDIO B
MY BODY IS READY
I'm suffering from massive fanboy attack right now!
VastaKustutaSomeone's gotta point Jayson to this one.
VastaKustutaHuh, I didn't know GLaDOS and Sniper were married. Sniper's my favorite class in TF2.
VastaKustutaI'd be pretty cool to have a famous video game voice in the show. I say she should voice Twilight's mom.
I love Ellen's scarf, it's celestial.
VastaKustutaAlso interviewer: professional up, the subject should not have to tell you to start the interview.
Maybe I'm just weird, but I am finding it easier to imagine her voicing a pony version of the TF2 administrator.
VastaKustutaI want Better Living through Science and Ponies to get made as an animation, now that Ellen McLain knows about us.
VastaKustutaIs it weird that halfway through this video, I just started zoning out and imagining how cool it would be if the voices of GLaDOS and the Sniper were my grandparents?
VastaKustutaFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF was this at Sogen Con??? I LIVE AN HOUR AWAY FROM THIS GUY AND I MISSED THIS??? I'm going to be kicking my self for years to come. I live literally an hour away, and somehow missed that she came to Sioux Falls..... And the VA for Sniper too.....
VastaKustutaC'mon, Pinkie, I'll teach you how to throw a pity party...
Yes! I totally agree with a few up, have her voice twilight's mom!
VastaKustuta@Scribejay You try and keep it cool when interviewing GLaDOS... Trust me... It was hard for me and I felt pretty derp when she said that, but the show goes on!
VastaKustutaYours Truly,
Midnight Dreams...
@Anonymous Calm yourself dude... This was at Anime Midwest in Chicago... Sogencon starts tomorrow and all the channels of ponychatlive will be running...
VastaKustutasincerely,
Midnight Dreams...
She is really nice!
VastaKustuta(Twilight Sparkle)
VastaKustutaThis was a triumph.
I'm making a report here, ON FRIENDSHIP!
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction. (Flutteryay)
PONY-VILLE:
We do what we must because we can,
For the good of Equestria,
except the ones like Gilda (cue: Pinkie laughter)
But there's no sense crying over every party pooper
You just keep on trying 'till you run out of hugs
And the magic gets done and you make a neat spell
For the little ponies who are still my friends
(Nightmare Moon)
I'm not even angry
I'm being so sincere right now
Even though you used those damn Elements of Harmony on me;
And condemned my memory,
And imprisoned me on that moon,
As I ran out of air it hurt ‘cos I loved n’ tolerated the shit out of you!
(Twlight Sparkle)
Now these points of friendship make a beautiful report
And I’m out of ink, I’m sending to Celestia
So I'm glad I'm in Ponyville
Think of all the little ponies I met
For the ponies that are still my friends
(Nightmare Moon)
Go ahead and forget me
I think I prefer a thousand years
Maybe you'll find something else to help you
Maybe ‘CUPCAKES’!
That was funny, ha ha, so gory,
When she sawed off another leg
That was so delicious and moist
(Twilight Sparkle)
Look at me still talking, when there's magic to do
When I look at the moon it makes me glad I'm not you
I've spells to run, there is magic to be done
On my little ponies who are still my friends
(Nightmare Moon)
And believe me I am still around,
I can change form and I'm still around,
I feel 20% COOLER and I'm still around,
While you are dying I'll be still around,
And in a thousand years I'll be still around,
STILL AROUND, still around
Every time John Patrick Lowrie laughed I could just tell that he was the sniper.
VastaKustutaI could totally see her as a Trixie-esque one-shot villain/rival in an episode.
VastaKustutaWhen life gives you apples, don't make apple juice!
How the heck did...
VastaKustutaNevermind...
Ellen McLain. Voice of GLaDOS. Voicing a pony.
VastaKustutaI will splode.
I forgot about that pony line by Wheatley!
VastaKustutaBTW, I know a brony that drew the scene where Chell had to kill the Companion Pony. Could it be the same drawing?!
A Glados Pony. That would be AMAZING!!!
VastaKustuta"Well done. Here are the test results: You are a horrible pony. I'm serious, that's what it says: A horrible pony. We weren't even testing for that. Don't let that "horrible pony" thing discourage you. It's just a data point. If it makes you feel any better, science has now validated your birth mother's decision to abandon you on a doorstep."
Or even Announcer Pony
"Alert! The enemy pony has taken our intelligence!"
Man this day keeps getting beter.
Luckally I made the decision to play Portal 2 for the 4th time.
I'm having a little trouble watching the interview because of how annoyed she looks. Maybe its in my head but...
VastaKustutaThat guy doesn't validate any brony stereotypes at all
VastaKustutaI mean, I give the guy props for doing it, but for goodness sake, BE PROFESSIONAL.
VastaKustutaOkay, time for a campaign to get Ellen voicing a pony.
VastaKustuta@Anonymous
VastaKustutaI agree completely! This needs to happen!
I DEMAND ELLEN McLAIN IN SEASON 2 OR 3
VastaKustutaShould've shown them GMod pictures of Ponies. :D
VastaKustutaDidn't expect that.
VastaKustutaAND OMG, THAT PERSON IN THE BACKGROUND IS WEARING A GHOST NAPPA SHIRT.
You know you shouldn't be interviewing someone when the your guest asks you to start.
VastaKustutaYay~
VastaKustutaAlso, SoFDMC, oh lawd. This needs to be done.
lol, I laughed really hard when Ellen had to step in a say
VastaKustuta"So.. can we do the Interview..?"
In case anyone at Hasbro may be reading...
VastaKustutaYou have no idea how much money I am willing to spend on any and all merchandise for a Ellen-voiced pony. Seriously, I will be more broke than I have ever been. All of my money, Hasbro. All of it.
that moment when you hear the writing fan-fiction while you are.
VastaKustutarainbow_bash_ohmygosh.gif
VastaKustutaWhoops, Typo! I meant to say "Rainbow DASH", not "BASH"! >.<
VastaKustutaI guess that's what you get for typing a comment in 10 seconds flat.
Huh. This interview actually came off as REALLY awkward, more than anything.
VastaKustutaShe should voice Vinyl Scratch.
VastaKustutaI FUCKING WANT A PONY WITH GLaDOS'S VOICE!
VastaKustutaI just fell victim to permanent happiness.
VastaKustuta@Anonymous
VastaKustutaWhoa. O_O
Shall Melodyne be involved?
...No, please, please stop trying to include Portal crap in FiM, they're both different things, and Portal is a horrible game, FiM does NOT need to be infected with how horrible it is.
VastaKustutaNovice troll is novice.
VastaKustutaEllen looks like she REALLY wants to get out of there
VastaKustutaThat guy in the back in enthralled.
VastaKustutaIs it just me or the community is invading everything we like?
VastaKustutaMy two favorite things in one?
VastaKustutaThis just got 20% cooler.
She could possibly be a good voice actor for the background pony episode. Being that no-one has heard the background ponies say anything
VastaKustutaHmm, is it just me, or was that video a bit painful to watch?
VastaKustuta"Can we just start the interview?"
I understand he was excited to meet "Glados" but it seemed like she was in physical pain the whole time..
Oh well, still cool.
Would be awesome if she became a brony (or filly, whatever)
VastaKustutanice
VastaKustutapainful to watch indeed. had to turn it off after a while...
VastaKustutaAnd suddenly Better Living became a canon episode of season 2.
VastaKustutaGlaDos is married to the sniper. Sounds about right.
VastaKustutaJust got around to watching this. The beginning was a little painful to watch, but it got better. Brony needs to tone it down a little. Once she got talking about Portal she was better.
VastaKustutaI was there, it was glorious
VastaKustutaLook, we've both said a lot of things you're going to regret.
VastaKustuta
