Equestria Inquirer #44

Yarr, that be a Derpy Matey, arggg.

Equestria Inquirer has released another episode! Infos after the break with video, and PDF here!

Copy-paste:
"We're playing the blame game in this week's issue of the Equestria Inquirer. LttMoose says that Spike is to blame for Shining Armor's new facial tattoo. Truthy says he's to blame for capturing a Changeling spy. TechRat says Pipsqueak and Featherweight are to blame for Mr Cake's horrible injuries (indirectly, anyway). And Joe says Derpy is to blame for....well, pretty much everything else. It's an entire issue of hilarious blaming, and if you miss it you'll have no one to blame but yourself. Oh, and be sure to check us out at Bronycon! We're hosting the EFR Livestream with live coverage from the convention floor. Tune in on Everfree Radio!" - TechRat

Drawfriend Stuff: Competition Edition - Ponies Playing with Ponies Results!

As is the norm for EQD competitions, we got absolutely flooded with a huge amount of awesome entries.  Unfortunately, only five could win the Toywiz Blindbags and Cards.  It's always difficult to decide on which deserve the prizes, but after a good amount of debating, these are our choices.  Overall we had around 145 entries, and the majority of them showed some amazing effort.  I'm still surprised at how interesting a few of these were.  You guys really know how to spin a template!

After the break, you will find each of the winners listed first, followed by the honorable mentions.  Now go look at some art!

Source 1 - Winner of 6 blind bags  and 6 booster packs because Dash has the best IMAGINATION.

Welovefine Adds Luna and Fluttershy Keychains

It looks like Welovefine has Fluttershy and Luna keychains to go along with their "order five shirts and get a keychain free" deal that usually includes Derpy. 

I don't know about you guys, but I reealy want them. 

Thanks to Brian for the heads up!

Pony Trading Cards : Sneak Peek #9 - Discord

Time for another sneak peak at the upcoming pony trading cards! Tonight we have for you the lord of chaos himself- Discord! Can't have a party without him, now can we? I spoke to the guy once, and he's pretty damn awesome. We can't all background ponies like Applejack all day long after all! We have some hard hitters in this pack!

And, yes, his text being upside-down is intentional. At least I think it is!

If you want to pre-order these cards, check out Toywiz, as always!

Custom Compilation #73

We don't see many Octavia customs, but when we do they seem to be amazing! I'll say it again, I wish I had the talent to make these things.

Custom compilation time, check them out after the break.

Piles and Piles of story updates this time around! My copy paster is going to need repairs after all this strenuous exercise.

Story: Frigid Winds and Burning Hearts (Update Complete!)

[Normal] Prince Blueblood slipped up again! Apparently it's pretty awesome too, since it hit 6 stars.

Author: Grey Prophet

Description: A heated confrontation with Celestia over her portrayal as Nightmare Moon and her sister's authoritarianism leads Luna to search for answers about the past, unwittingly tangling Twilight and her friends into a cosmic struggle between order and chaos that ultimately inspires only more questions. Set one year after the first two episodes.

The Hub's Comic-Con 2012 Schedule

According to Facebook, and what some of you have already figured out due to early posts, The Hub will be appearing at Comic-Con International. They have tossed their schedule up, and it looks like the pony stuff will be taking place on Friday, July 13 at 10:00AM. For more information and the entire schedule for their visit, check out the Facebook post here!

For those interested, Bronytalk will be interviewing Royal Coat, the event lead for Everfree Northwest, at 6PM pacific time. That's a little more than an hour from now! Anyone wanting to learn more about the events at Everfree Northwest should check this out.

You can catch the interview here.

Now I gotta finish packing for Bronycon!

YRPMV/Comic Dub: Paper Mareio / Twilight and the Fourth Wall

 We have sort of a mix this time around! I've never actually played Paper Mario before outside of a short stint on the Wii during my time working at Blockbuster, but this has so many neat little edits, I might just check the game out! We just need a pony mod.

And as a bonus, we also have a short comic dub based on the Twilight and the Fourth Wall comic.  Check both out after the break!

Comic: Twilight and Smarty Pants / That's Going on the Blooper Reel / All of the Lights / The Cutie Mark Story

Calvin and hobbes, in my pony?  I couldn't be happier.  We have that, followed by Rainbow Dash X Twilight, followed by Pinkie losing her mind, and finishing with some of that pony with the Thor hammer butt symbol.  Click for full!

Drawfriend Stuff #489

I was going to ponify a Bastion quote for this header, but I ran out of time!

The Two Sides Project

I've actually had these in the queue for a while waiting for a few more to release, but she bribed me with Trixie! It's my only weakness! TehJadeh over on Deviant Art has been creating these really neat Two Sides posters for about half a year now.  Each shows the positive and negative sides of a pony, be it the Great and Powerful one's confidence vs doubt, or Pinkie Pie losing her mind.  I could see some of you using these as actual posters, I just wish some of the older ones were bigger on the actual deviant art page!  I might be derpin though, or Trixie is just the only one with the option for 2550x3285 resolution.

Anyway, check them all out after the break.

Music: Go Take Flight!

Alllevelsatonce has released this awesome remix/cover of the Italian Friendship is Magic opening, complete with translated lyrics and a completely revamped backtrack.   If you have ever had the old song on repeat and wished you know what the hell they were saying, this is the track for you!

Check it out after the break.

Story: Angel

[Sad][Adventure]

Author: Invictus

Description: Angel: Love and Family come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes, they're nothing like what you ever expected. This is the story of how a little white rabbit found his.

Zecora Joins Comic Con as Another Exclusive

It looks like Zecora will be joining Derpy at Comic Con.  The Toys R' Us booth will be showcasing her as one of their exclusives for later in the year, so fortunately for us, she won't be limited quantity!

Check out this snippet from the press release:

MY LITTLE PONY collectors can corral ZECORA from the EVERFREE FOREST! This glow-in-the-dark version of the fan-favorite rhyming zebra can’t wait to share her magic and sage advice with all of her new friends. ZECORA is available as a sneak peek at Comic-Con International in San Diego for $10. For those not able to visit the show, ZECORA will trot into Toys“R”Us stores nationwide this fall.

They forgot to mention that she is probably the coolest looking brushable so far! Mainly because you don't have to brush her.

YTPMV/Anime Ending: Trixie's Song / Ponified Death Note Ending Credits

You look tired, have some subliminal trixie messaging entertaining stage show to wake you up.

And if Trixie isn't your thing, have some Death Note instead.

San Diego Comic Con - 8 Bit Pony Game and More Details on Trolley

Remember that commercial from a few months ago?  It is now a game, or soon to be.  People that visit The Golden Yolk during the Hub's comic-con takeover will recieve a code to go play it online! Have some snippet from the press release:

Visitors to the Broken Yolk will also receive a secret code to gain exclusive access on Hubworld.com to the eagerly anticipated "My Little Pony Friendship is Magic" themed, 8-bit "Adventure Pony" game already teased on the network.

I can't believe they did it! The Hub is best network.

And a bit more information on the trolley was also released:

To transport fans to and from the convention in style, The Hub will transform one car of the San Diego Trolley system to create a magical "My Little Pony Friendship is Magic" experience showcasing some of the series' most popular characters inside and out. The train will be styled as the Friendship Express train, which is featured in the popular animated series. 

Maybe they will have a MMMystery to solve while in transit?!

Music Remix/Vocal: Inkie's Day - Taps ft. Rina Chan / Generosity / Epic Pony Battle of History- Rarity vs. Applejack

Inkie's version of Smile Smile Smile?  This is one of the more original and relaxing tracks in the fandom.   Suddenly I like Inkie Pie. 

We also have some Becoming Popular in the second slot. I'm way late on this one, so you all have probably already heard it!

And in the final slot, we have some Rarity Vs. Applejack rap battling. The voices are actually really well done! Check them all out below.

1.) Inkie's Day - Taps ft. Rina Chan
2.) Rarity feat. Elusive - Generosity
3.) Epic Pony Battle of History- Rarity vs. Applejack

Comic-Con Hub Hosted Pony Panel, Pony Trolley

It looks like San Diego is about to be bombarded by yet another round of pony.   The Hub will be hosting panels for each of it's shows, including a Friendship is Magic one at the upcoming comic con. Considering a Derpy Toy is their special edition release this year, I have a feeling it's going to be a ton of fun!

They also plan on taking over a trolley car and decking it out in Friendship is Magic stuff, along with a restaurant called The Broken Yolk.   That's a lot of pony!  I'm sure the brony presence will be completely insane as well. 

Game Trailer: Angel Bunny - Platforming Game

Just in case you guys had an urge to play that little gangster bunny Fluttershy tries to call a friend, a new game is currently in progress with almost terraria-like graphics.  As is the norm for ponies, its a platformer! It looks like there are some neat abilities for the little rabbit though, from super jumps to rabbit novas.

Check it out below the break! 

Brony Thank You Ad and Fund - Competitions and Updates

The Brony Thank You project has sort of taken the backburner to all this convention and documentary news lately, but it's still chuggin along at a pretty good rate!  They have a few competitions coming up, with rewards including some really awesome giant sized signed Comic Con posters. 

Anyway, have a list of news items below!

1) The Hub has asked us not to show the rough-cut of the ad at BronyCon, because Hasbro needs to give final clearance due to the use of their trademarks.  Instead, we'll be announcing the people who will be featured in the ad, along with pictures. Sunday, 4PM, Studying the Herd panel on the tail stage.

2) We've completed final video editing and are working on the audio at the moment. We should be ready to announce the Great Background Music competition within a week or so, winner to work with William Anderson on the final backing track.

3) The Hub has kindly donated three Season 1 "Comicon" posters, signed by *all* the Season 1 voice actors, and including a letter of authenticity.  There are only 24 of these in existence!  We will be receiving them next week, and will be announcing how bronies can get their hands on one then.

Owlicious

His name is already licious. Why hasn't this been done sooner?

Check it out after the break.
