William Anderson is Now a Pony

Art by edvedd

Some of you may have noticed the amazing background scores in Friendship is Magic.  Well, this is the guy responsible, and he is awesome. 

We actually interviewed William Anderson a while back for all the new people out there.  It's definitely worth a read, especially if you plan on a career in music.  He needs more love!

Anyway, back to the subject at hand; Will has modified his home page with his pony as the opener, making him even more of a badass.  

I love this team so much.

It's comic time! Up above we have a Hearts and Hooves comic (That was pre-leak so totally safe), and below some Rainbow Dash and Daring-Do stuff, because that combo is amazing.

I honestly want Daring-Do to make a comback more than Trixie at this point.

Blind Bags Available on Hasbro Toy Shop (PROMO CODE Added)

It's about time! Hasbro has finally tossed the entire blindbag set up on their website for an easy 47 bucks.  The description sort of hints that these do not come with all 24 characters, even though the store-bought sets tend to include everyone.  I am not sure if you are actually ordering a box, or just a ton of separate bags when going this route. Regardless, we finally have an online source for these that isn't based outside the USA!

Check out the page here if you want one.

Update:  Be sure to use the promo code (MLPTEN) for 10% off !

Story: Shadow Of Dreams (Update Part 3!)

[Shipping]

Author: Keyframe

Description: Summer Sparks is very inventive for an Earth pony. She's very good with her hooves and doesn't rely on magic for technology, but with all her success she still dreams of flying high with the graceful speed of a Pegasus pony. With her newest creation, Gigatrot, she goes to Ponyville. And compared to flying, how hard could making friends be?

MAD TV Pony Parody Happening on Monday!

It looks like we can expect some pony parody ridiculous on this coming Monday.  They actually did one a while back with Cowboys and Aliens that was actually pretty well made, so I'm looking forward to this one. 

I can't really see Twilight Sparkle taking a warhorse role... maybe Applejack or Big Mac. 

And I bet 25 cents we will see a Derpy. 

Check out Tara's Twitter page for the source!

Pinkie Pie Invades Time Square

Source

At first I thought there was no way this could be legit. A giant Pinkie Pie in times square? Looks shopped to me!

A trip over to Earthcam has confirmed it though.  Pinkie Pie completely shattered the 4th wall, and is now displaying her cupcake crumb covered visage for all of New York to see. 

It is actually a part of a rolling Hasbro ad that includes Mr. Potatohead and a few others.  Regardless, PINKIE PIE!

Scootaloo Officially Invades German McDonalds

The Scootaloo Burger won first place in a German McDonalds sandwich naming competition poll.  Amazingly enough, it seems to have dodged all copyright issues and gone for gold.   The top 20 burgers have been absorbed into a final competition for the right to become an officially sold burger. 

The actual Scootaloo portion of the video happens at :50 in the video after the break, for a translation, hit the text below!

"I was in a Skype conversation with German Bronies. Then I noticed a post on Facebook, my neighbor made a burger at "Mein Burger by McDonalds", he told me to “Click on Like!”. After that I asked the other ones on Skype “Hey, wanna create one, too?” Then everyone said: “YEAH! DO IT!”.

(...)

Just Scootaloo, because it’s a character from the show. And here it is!"

Hopefully it makes it through! I don't know if Scootaloo would be too happy with it, but at least she is famous for something... right?

Author: Arkensaw Pinkerton

But Applejack's having none of it, Rarity's getting the wrong idea about everything, and the Cutie Mark Crusader Matchmakers are about to really throw a spanner in the works! A comedy of errors launching a full fleet of ships.

New Mcdonalds Toys: Pretty Much the Same!

Aside from a new addition and a few model edits, it looks like the next wave of pony McDonalds toys are pretty much the same as the old ones.

I'm going to avoid questioning that purple and yellow pony for the time being considering poor Cheerilee managed to surprise all of us in the end.  Who knows, maybe shes will have some significance later in the season, or out there on the horizon in the third.

These are expected around March, so if you didn't get a chance to pick them up last time, this is probably your best shot.

Story: Prophecy (Upate Part 8-16!)

Description: Strange things happen when magic and technology come into contact. When that happens, events on one world can become a part of something that happened on another... many thousands of years in the past. Inevitably, what is lost can always be found... even if by the most unlikely of individuals.
