The external media. What are they saying about MLP? Is it good? Bad? Do they get the details right? Do they judge?
I wanted to talk about this Shortpacked strip for a while. Is this happening in the pony community? |

Rooted hair is the nylon brushable hair that a lot of MLP toys use. One of the big debates among toy collectors apparently is whether it's better to do that or use solid plastic hair sculpts.

Oh, that. I like the brushable hair just fine, I think it's fun to style them. But molds are fine as well...

MLTG is two great tastes that taste great together. The video was mentioned both on theTransmission blog and in Top Gear Magazine.

The Pony influence has officially spread into IRL mainstream media. In our home state, no less! Makes sense that it would pop up here first--Portland is generally pretty weird-friendly. -------------------- FREE CUSTOM PONIES!! Just PM me whatever specifications you want. |

Still wish someone like Entertainment Weekly or TV Guide or someone would do a piece about the actual show. Positive press or not, I'm bothered that such an excellent show is being overshadowed by its own fans.

Pinkie cosplay in Devil's Panties. ("Devil's Panties" is a bio comic, the title comes from a band names brainstorming session in college.)

 Feeling Spectacular Group: Citizen Posts: 302 Joined: 7-November 06 Member No.: 9,293 Faction: Equestrian |
Mad just referenced MLP during their Cowboys & Aliens parody. Applejack appears even though her hat was wrong & had Rarity's cutie mark. Still, pretty funny! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif)
EDIT- Now another reference, during a parody of the new Thundercats pilot, a Rainbow Dash stand-in can be seen invading Thundera as part of an army of internet memes. This post has been edited by Don_East: Sep 26 2011, 07:53 PM --------------------  |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-ironhide.gif) Thanks for the heads up, Don_East. I'm a few timezones behind you for Cartoon Network, so I had time to catch this and upload it to my newest YouTube channel. Here's the MLP/Cowboys & Aliens parody on MAD. There are a lot of MLP references in this one. Other than the name "Applejack," there are no canon characters in specific (copyright reasons, I'm sure) but a few might resemble somepony we know.

And here's the one for that. This one is funny, but nowhere near as much pony as the first one. There are a few instances of pony scattered throughout, but they go by really quick (and good thing too, I didn't care for how they looked in this one.)

Wow...that Thundercats one was amazing! It's the first Mad toon that was somewhere in the area of being amusing.
