Animation: The Animator's Song

This is an older one we never posted, but I think most of you, especially the animators, will get a kick out of it. I really feel for you guys sometimes! Just playing with photoshop has me ready to throw my computer out the window sometimes, I can't imagine dealing with crashes in an environment like that!

Warning: There is a bit of language.

Anyway, check it out after the break!

Movable Ponies - Another Look

The movable ponies mentioned earlier have a new image up on a website called Prisma.  It looks like each will come with a clear pet (and a turtle for dash at that!).  I'm not too sure what they have done with Rainbow's wings, but sparkly stuff seems to be the trend with Crystal Empire, so it's not too surprising!

Thanks to Whathisgame for the heads up again!

Story: The Pony of the Opera (Update Complete!)

[Crossover] Woah, solid 5 at 28 votes?  That's like, mathematically ridiculous.


Author: Miyajima

Description: A chance meeting with the new manager of the Canterlot Opera House propels Fluttershy to stardom as the lead singer in a new opera. Rumours abound of a ghost haunting the performance, but will Fluttershy be able to discover the truth behind the masks?

DVD Commentaries Waiting to be Finalized

Brian Ward from Shout Factory announced that the commentary for the upcoming Season 1 DVD has been completed and awaits approval. It's not a huge amount of new information, but a progress update is always worth it!  I'm still really curious about how extensive it will be, but I guess only time will tell!

You can still find the DVD here if you haven't already. 

Thanks to Ben for the image!

New Blindbag Set and Movable Ponies on Taobao

More new toy sets have popped up over on Taobao.  There isn't anything too groundbreaking, but we do see a confirmation that the movable parts ponies are actually legit.  Have some information courtesy of Whatshisgame:

• Pinkie Pie & Friends Mini Collection: Walmart-exclusive. As people were suspecting, those 8 mini-figures floating around online that didn’t seem to fit into either the announced sixth wave of blind bags (the ones with dark blue/purple packaging) or the likely seventh wave of blind bags (the partly-translucent ponies) are indeed part of another collection separate from the blind bags. These 8 new ponies are all G4 versions of G3 ponies, so if their names carry over, then the 12 ponies in this collection are Applejack, Dainty Daisy, Kiwi Tart, Peri Winkle, Pick-a-Lilly, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Rainbow Swirl, Rarity, Seascape, Star Dasher, and Waterfire
• Crystal Motion Applejack: Part of the Crystal Empire line. The finished versions of those three motion ponies we’ve seen prototypes of have been floating around online, and now we finally get to see one finished and packaged, this one with a translucent purple Winona recolor. This is most likely the deluxe crystal Applejack that ToyWiz has for pre-order; ToyWiz and BigBadToyStore have deluxe crystal Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle for pre-order as well, and BigBadToyStore also has all three for pre-order together

I think my blindbag box might overflow if I grab any more!

Nightly Roundup #449

Spending a day with ponies would be fun enough as it is, but can you imagine spending a whole day with them at an amusement park? I can only say that it certainly be the thrill of a lifetime!

News time guys! How off the presses! Also, I'll be taking requests for the header again this week so throw them down in the comments and I'll tally up the winner for tomorrow night.
