Nightly Discussion #421
by Calpain
Ah, Discord and Fluttershy! They really do play well off each other don't they? Only she can tame that savage beast it seems.
Evening guys! Ready for some chatting?

Over the years, the fandom has created a whole bunch of interesting offshoots for pony races. The show likes to sneak neat ideas into the background, but nothing stops the collective minds of an armada of geek culture gods! Bat ponies, Plane ponies, Moth ponies, giant fluffball ponies, you name it and we have probably ponied it.
Once again, our hypothetical Hasbro exec has returned for another round of "ask the brony fandom!". He needs a new toy line for 2016, and you are going to provide the ideas for it!
What new race of ponies do you build? Or what existing fan created race do you want to see in the show most? Are the bat ponies of Hallowshades about to make their grand season 6 debut?!
Head on down to the comments and drop your TOP NEW PONY RACE!

If you were planning on picking up the Friendship Games disc in October, Shout Factory is running a limited edition poster giveaway for pre-orders over here. The image above is what you should expect, which was originally given out only at a handful of signings at SDCC.
Thanks to Micheal for sending it!

Good news for all of you looking forward to these Power Ponies brushables! Target has apparently started to release stock of them. These guys have been teased for months on various Taobao links and 3rd party ebay stores.
As always, be sure to call before making the trip!
Thanks to James, Felipe, and Victor for sending it. -
I was honestly a bit on the fence when these two became buddies. The chemistry just didn't feel like it was there. I'm glad they did now though. Treehugger's episode kinda sealed that.
Get your art below!

[Alternate Universe][Adventure][Dark]
Author: wille179
Description:
Split Second
Twilight Sparkle broke time when she got her cutie mark. Now Twilight and Sparkle are sisters from another time. Twilight is hailed as the potentially greatest light magician of all time, and already has a reputation as a hero by the time she goes to Ponyville. This isn't quite her story, not entirely.
Sparkle is an orphan - her dark magic killed her parents. She lives with her brother in Canterlot's industrial sector because they can't afford anything better. She can't leave either. She's a natural dark mage; while Sparkle won't go mad like Sombra, her reputation is hardly any better. Worse, the law doesn't see her as a good pony.
The fact that the dead don't stay dead around her, or that Thorn - Spike's double - is an undead, soul-eating abomination, are other matters altogether.

Comic: Playing Games

Being royalty can be tough! At least Celestia had Luna, right? Come and get another comic from Veggie by clicking the preview above.

Would you wear a Twilight Sparkle mask? I probably would. I've been known to rock whatever dumb pony headpiece they have available at SDCC after all. A tiara one year, a giant Rainbow Dash face this year. It's the best.
Uhh, anyway, enough about silly hats. Brazil apparently already has these guys listed on their website as available now. I know a few of you at least live down there and love the poni. For the rest of us, will we ever be graced by these incredible headpieces? That remains a mystery. Brazil has had completely unique pony figures in the past for their McDonalds campaigns. Way back in 2011, these were available.
I suppose only time will tell!
Thanks to Ryan for the heads up.

I guess it's officially "update our Amazon Listings" day for Hasbro! Joining the Friendship is Magic collection and mystery items earlier is a whole boatload of Equestria Girls toys. They don't appear to be linked to any specific movie this time based on their Amazon names, but that could change.
This also makes the "dolls" in the other post look much less like they have anything to do with EG. As I mentioned in the last one, these guys are running with the generic Equestria Girls product description.
Anyway, get your listings below! Unfortunately, no images included again!

The Friendship is Magic collection marks Hasbro's first big push for collectable level figurines in their personal toy line. Usually 3rd party licencees are the ones with the high end molded stuff. I'm sure the Apple Family wasn't the only plan for that lineup. We have a bunch of new listings all going up on Amazon at the same time, some labeled as part of a new "Friendship is Magic" collection, and others a bit more mysterious.
Unfortunately, there aren't any dates or images to go with them, but I'm sure we will find out more as time goes on. Until then, get a sneak peek at what we can expect from merchandise as we go into the holiday season and beyond!
Find it all below!

The Dazzlings were pretty good villains in Rainbow Rocks! The next movie is going to have some big shoes to fill I think.
