Legends of Equestria Goes Live

WeAreBorg here, in the city of HASCON, looking for a bar. But while I do that, I suggest you download the new and public Legends of Equestria because that's going live...Now! Look Celestia is already in there. Go show her what's up.

Hit me up below for download links and what not.

Music: NotACleverPony - For The New Lunar Republic (Rockin'Brony Cover) [Metal]

This isn't Rockin'Brony's first attempt at a cover of this 2011 staple, but in my mind it's the first one where he's really captured the essence of the original. The symphonic sounds add some great impetus to the piece as the guitar chugs along appreciably. The lead guitar solo section halfway through is really cool too, and overall this is a terrific re-imagining. Check it out below!

Nightly Discussion #1194

We've got all of our ponies in beach ware now, but it won't be long till they all bundle up I think! It's already getting a little chilly here during the day in Michigan.

Evening my friends! Ready to chat?

Two OC Pony Slots In Season 8 of MLP Were Raffled Off at HASCON

For those that haven't heard this one (I believe it was buried in a presser), and if the submit box is any indication there are a lot, the HASCON VIP event actually included an interesting raffle.

From what we've gathered from people that attended, everyone was given a sheet of paper with a personality test asking things like favorite color, special talents, and various other character-building questions.


Two (unnamed) people won in a random draw, and will be fully animated in the show. A 3rd place winner received two free tickets to a premiere of the MLP Movie. Everyone at the event will be receiving a mailed artist interpretation of what they put down on the sheet.

Expect a few OC's next season! Luckily, thanks to the route they took with the test, we won't be seeing any neon green alicorn princes with dragon tails... but probably no bats either. Yes, that is relevant.

Thanks to everyone for sending it!

HASCON: EQD First! Behind the Plastic

WeAreBorg here with some highlights for a type of panel we've never covered before. A talk about pony toys with pony toy creators! This is one of the highlights of the convention. You'll see the movie, and you'll see the five or so EqG shorts we've spoiled, but for this one time the red tape, marketing managers, and 3rd party PR companies were pushed to the side for a face to face chat with the hands behind the plastic.

Join me after the break for a look into mold...

HASCON: The Making of My Little Pony: The Movie Panel

I just got out of the My Little Pony: Season 8 Sneak Peek Panel (you can find that here) and before that one was The Making of My Little Pony: The Movie.

Unfortunately, Hasbro was really strict on on the NO TECHNOLOGY active during the Making of Panel, so there will be no pictures for this part. However, I did take some extensive notes, so let's get started!


Head on down below the break for a recap of the entire Making of My Little Pony: The Movie Panel.
