Possible Build a Bear Trixie, Zecora, Applejack, and Apple Bloom

While we don't have an official source to point to with these, the submitter KrazyKari points out that these are a future set of Build a Bear Plushies.  It looks like you guys worried about the lack of Apple Bloom in the last round will finally have a chance to finish off your set.  Along with that, we have Zecora, and the Greatest and most Powerful Pony in all of Equestria.  While I'm not too thrilled with the tiny hat, there is always a chance that it could change in the future.

Hopefully we see these some time in the near future!

Artist Spotlight: NCMares / PuffPink / InkyTopHat / kmrShy

What's great about ponies is how malleable they are to certain themes and topics. They are just as good at being cute as kittens to as badass as any superhero. It's this diversity that allows our fandom to be as all inclusive as it is, with things that suit about anyone's tastes if they look past the surface.

As usual, these posts are in similar style to the Tumblr Spotlights, a group of 3-5 artists will be spotlit each entry along with a small short description along with a small selection of their artwork! In order to make this feature work though we need people to suggest artists to us so make sure to send artists you think need some exposure to [email protected]. Please also include a short biography I can work with as well as what medium you work in most.

What sort of artists count? Suggestions should follow these criteria:

• No clop or extensive gore galleries as those typically violate our content guidelines. If the artist has a safe for work gallery separate from their not safe for work stuff they or their fans can submit the safe for work gallery. If there is a mix of SFW/NSFW on a gallery the decision whether or not to include them will be judged on a gallery to gallery basis.
• Don't be afraid to spotlight yourself as well as others!
• Artists of all types accepted -vector, OC, traditional, digital. As long as it is pony and of quality it has a chance of being spotlit. 

Now on to the artists!

Horse Fame! Something so many of you strive for, yet few have.  I wonder who thought of that term anyway? Did riders back in the old days call people horse famous?  Have a song dedicated to that in the first slot from Mandopony, and something a bit more mellow in the second slot.  Both below!

1.) Horse Famous - by MandoPony (Vocal - Pop/Rap)
2.) Julian Moon - Nostalgia (Vocal)
