Happy World Smile Day!

Or happy Pinkie Pie day in this case! Just something fun from the Hub's Facebook.

Story: The Sweetest Water

[Slice of Life] 

Quote: "This story captures the feel of long ago fairy tales, the sort that would contain messages and lessons hidden beneath their honeyed words. A must read for lovers of the colourful Fairy Books and The Brothers Grimm" - Pre-Reader Who likes Ponies

Author: Chris

Description: Nothing is without a price, as many discover to their sorrow. Few are those who truly know themselves, and fewer still are those who know which prices are worth bearing—and which hide perils threatening that which they most treasure.

Ultra Pro Derpy Set Revealed

Ultra Pro tossed these up over on their main website. We are finally getting Derpy sleeves. There seems to be a pretty big push for the pony on the card front lately, what with the tins and main pony set.  Of course, you can always use these for other games as well. 

If you are curious, you can find out review of them over here! Expect to see Derpy set pre-orders popping up soon.  

Thanks to @NemariaCosplay for the heads up.

Game: Prismatic Rings

Got a simple little 8-bit style game for you all today! When prismatic colored rings start popping up all over Equestria what would a pegasus do? Fly through them of course! Fly through the rings with Soarin and try your best not to hit any obstacles and get the high score.

Animatic: Hell To Your Door

Usually most animatics I see are pretty rough, but this one is pretty dang amazing and works super well on its own (which is good since apparently this is the finished project). It's a bit darker than most pony material so avoid if you aren't into that sort of thing.

Find the complete clip after the break!

Thanks to everyone who sent it in!

Pony Pumpkin Event Starting Soon!

While we aren't yet opening submissions up on these, I wanted to drop a heads up for those of you acquiring pumpkins ridiculously early to take some pictures!

Good luck! And be careful with those sharp carving tools!

Nightmare Nights Dallas Responds to Ebola Fears

(I can't believe googling Ebola Pony actually came up with something.  Color me amazed) 

That pony may look cute, but shes not. Fortunately, she isn't too common here in the States. The media seems to be blowing this Ebola thing out of proportion, as they usually do, and Nightmare Nights Dallas has tossed a post up over on Tumblr for those worried about the convention this month. The general gist of it is to not worry.

Head on over here to check it out!


Thanks to sleepysteve for the heads up.

Discovery Family (the New Hub Network) Detailed

With October 13th right around the corner, more news is popping up of the new Discovery Family, replacing The Hub.  It looks like a majority of the channel will be incorporating things from their other networks, including stuff like "Factory Made", "How Do they Do it?", and a few shows from Animal Planet. 

As for pony, we can expect it to take the top of the morning slot from 10:30 AM to noon.

Now we just need that season 5 release date... It's going to be an interesting rest of the month if we get something announced at this month's Hasbro investor call. 

Thanks to Ryan for the heads up.  More infos on the other shows over here.

Pony 2nd Place in Toy Hall of Fame Poll

Look at that frustrated Twilight Sparkle.  I wonder what percentage of people actually ever finishes a rubiks cube? I know I've only ever seen one solved in person once, and the guy was using a guide offline to do it.  What did people do when there wasn't an internet with these things? That's right, toss it in a box after 30 minutes and give up.

It looks like said object of frustration is beating pony in the current Toy Hall of Fame poll.  If you want to vote, head on over here to do it!

Thanks to Lance for the heads up.
