Nightly Roundup #739

AJ actually doesn't look too bad with a short mane and tail then again it's always interesting to see what the girls look like with alternate styles and what not. What do you guys think? What sort of styles do you think would look good on the other ponies?

Anyhow, time for a short roundup! Check it after the break.

Music of the Day #159

Not even space is safe from Pinkie Pie. What can you even do at that point? I bet she is still noisy up there, even with that whole no sound due to vacuum thing.

We are on earth though, so have some stuff you can listen to! 15 songs again, get them below.

Fallout Equestria Monthly Update Post - August

This months installment of the usual Fallout Equestria massive compilation has been completed by our buddy Arcane Scroll at Fallout Equestria Resource. Head on down below the break for all of it!

Massive Random Merch: Walkie Talkie, Binder, and Loads of Claire's Merch

Time for more of that random merch stuff! We start off with another card binder from Enterplay. Stores from all over the USA have this thing if the amount of submissions we got for it are any indication.

Onward to a massive random merch post.  It seems like a trend now days to straight up create a pony section in your store.

Fluttershy Takes the Lead in Fan Favorite Poll

It looks like Rarity's fans had a sudden drama filled breakdown, and Fluttershy's army of ravenous husbandos stepped it up to take their place.   With the poll closing on the 26th, there is still quite a bit of time for someone else to win it.  Did Twilight's wings harm her usual domination?  Or are we going to see a sneak victory in the end?

Vote over here!

Spotlight Instrumental Music: Shadows of the Everfree Forest / Capability for Construction / Cosmic Fluttershy

I always did like spooky music, and that first one from DasDeer doesn't disappoint!  Apparently it is moving into the world of stage themes for the upcoming Reventants of Chaos. 

Slot number two is occupied by yet another song from an upcoming game, composed by Senjan. Those looking forward to Adventure of the Lunarbolts have something to love there.

And finally, some space Fluttershy dubstep, because why not.   Check them all out below!

1.) DasDeer - The Shadows of Everfree Forest
2.) Capability for Construction
3.) Blaze - Cosmic Fluttershy

Story: Forecast

[Shipping] “A short and sweet slice-of-life romance. I loved every minute of it.” — Pre-reader Amacita

Author: Jondor

Description: Ponyville's weather is never quite the same without Rainbow Dash at the helm.

When a week of bad weather frays the nerves of Ponyville's farmers, they'll go to dubious lengths to stop one of their own from winning the heart of Rainbow Dash, and hogging all the good weather in the process.

Poll Results: Best Non-Personal Fandom Famous OC Pony?

I'm glad "Other" was so small.  I was pretty worried I was missing a major character or so! Looks like Twitter and Skype chats didn't fail me there.  It looks like Fluffle Puff completely dominated this one.  That would explain why the videos see to garner more interest than anything else in ponyland lately.

I'm out of polls again.  Go recommend some below the break!

Drawfriend Stuff #893

See? Shes cute when she's asleep.  Not a single trace of obnoxious 3rd pony or boasting at all.  It has been forever since we had a Trixie header.

Onward to art!

Story Updates - August 13th

We have a five story updates for you all to peruse today.  Go read stuff below the break!

Xbox Facebook Pony Ad

Nothing really new here outside of the official Xbox facebook posting ponies, but I figured I'd toss it up anyway.  An ad has popped up over there for the avatar sets from a few weeks ago.  Head on over here for the post!

Thanks to Gerald and everyone else that sent it! 

Story: Of Apples and Roses and Thick Purple Proses (Update Complete!)

[Comedy] [Shipping]

Author: The Descendant and RavensDagger

Description: Every story has a beginning, middle, and end. But mine, the story of my life, is far from interesting. My hobbies, my work, my cutie mark, all are dull. Flowers and poems ruled my life, until I fell in love.

My name is Roseluck, and this is the only story I have worth telling.

Three Page Preview of MLP Comic #10

That usual monthly preview of the upcoming My Little Pony comic entry has popped up on iTunes.  There are three pages to check out this time around.  Head on down below the break for loads of Big Mac!

Thanks to Masem for the heads up again!  Y'all are slackers. 

Equestria Girls DVD Orders Dominate, More Pony DVD's on the Way

It sounds like Retailers are having a ball with the Equestria Girls DVD that released a few days ago according to a direct quote from Shout Factory's COO Bob Emmer:   

Emmer said retail orders for Equestria Girls exceeded 100,000 units, more than any title in the 10-year history of Shout! The 72-minute film had its world premiere in June at the Los Angeles Film Festival and then played in theaters.

This has spurred Hasbro and Shout to tie the knot on more deals, including five "My Little Pony animated family adventures" (which appear to be the oldschool pony movies). 

Now we just need a pony pony movie! If Equestria Girls did this well, can you imagine how popular an actual equine focused movie would be?  Get on it Hasbro!

Thanks to Masem for the heads up!

Generosity - AcoustiMandoBrony

These two need a professional label and mainstream radio plays at this point.   The next installment of the Elements series has been released from Acoustic Brony and Mando Pony (with excellent guest vocals from EileMonty), this time dedicated to Rarity.  Head on down below the break to check it out!

PMV: Shooting Star

Look at how happy Twilight is! That's what she looks like every time one of these amazing PMV's comes into the submit box.  I can't get enough either! Keep em' coming!

And head on down below the break to check out Shooting Star. 

MLP Facebook Cover Changes

The MLP Facebook page has swapped their cover page up.  I'm assuming this is due to the Fighting is Magic background in the last one.  Twilight's books are going to get dirty out there on the road!  Kind of a shame really. 

Thanks to Scope for the heads up.

New Release Toys Spotted in the Wild - Octavia, Talking Nightmare Moon, EQG Pony Combo, and More

I figured I'd compile up a post on the stuff that has released in the last few weeks, focusing entirely on the brick and mortar side.  Quite a few people have sent these toys in, and pointing them out can't hurt for those that don't like to order online.

Head on down below the break for all of them. 

Buttonlicious

Honestly I'm waiting for the Buttons Mom version.  Have another in the licious line for now, just cause. Get it below the break.
