    I'll have to reread, I must have missed that implication.

    The pony just has the same colors as her.

    I can totally see Cadence doing that on her days off.

    Please tell me that her team's name involves tiaras.

    After a reread, I don't buy it.
    Other ponies on the ice are going by Princess Skullestia and Scarswirl, not to mention a Snowpain that's an obvious reference to Elsa from Frozen. They've clearly just taken princess and other famous pony names, and it isn't surprising that one going by Shining Harmer might have mane colors that match Cadance. I would bet it's just a dye job to match the overall theme. She doesn't even have a princess body type, just that of a regular pony.

    The team names are the Manehatten Manglers and the Fillydelphia Phracturers, and the not-Cadance is playing for the latter.

    It doesn't matter if it's her or not. We're still gonna see fanart of Cadance dressed up and participating soon enough anyway.

    Random question, totally not research for anything, but what copic sketch colours would the outside of the Normandy from Mass Effect possibly be? for doing a simplified, mlp art style, to be precise.

    I'd say white primary, black secondary and under the Alliance, blue streaks for mane/tail.

    I meant the actual ship not a pony version of it.

    also, I could swear there was more blue. maybe that was the inside/me2.

    Well I'm just going to be disappointed until I see the Normandy as a pony.

    well a quick gis has revealed nothing, for that.

    ehhhh... but she got the joke before?

    and now she's adding that luna is the spirt of nightmare night past... I guess I get that.

    but how does that mean 'welcome to the joke. glad you could join us' when she understood it from the beginning

    Sweet, found vinyl Celestia and Luna at the local Hot Topic and was able to use my hot cash on them before that store closed for remodeling.

    Looks like next month we might get some season 5 tidbits!
    Big news out of the Big Apple tonight! Not only is PonyCon eager to announce the attendance of directors Jayson Thieseen and Jim Miller, but are happy to announce the premiere of a new season 5 trailer!

    You've heard that right, a new trailer for season 5! If you guys are anywhere near the New York area now will be your time to attend a pony convention as you join these two awesome gentleman for a one hour panel.

    Will they disclose a premiere date, at long last?

  • RuldarRuldar Registered User regular
    While I like the idea of a trailer at long last, that just pushes the potential air date even further into the future. That con is February 14-16th so I cannot imagine we'll be seeing the season any earlier than March.

    As if I needed another reason to keep buying the comics... But this is a very, very good reason to! I'm excited for sure, and looking forward to what they do with this angle. The Price/Cook take on it is going to be awesome.
    They better get Chrysalis. They always do Chrysalis so well.
