I think Lofty's extra leg was supposed to be Heart Throb's but it got colored in as Lofty's instead.  I heard that the having the ponies trapped on their backs and constantly moving their legs was probably difficult to animate.

Somehow I missed Sherriff Ricotta's change to the larger mouse with the green overallls. Does that make 3 character changes?

 I love the winged Galaxy one. :lovey:


Here are a few more


Wind Whistler is purple

I'm not sure if this is a true error or not. It looks like North Star has an extra leg but it could just be the way the next is drawn over her body.

I'm under the impression that it's less an error and more just shoddy drawing. Like with a lot of older animations, background characters moreso resemble the schmooze than any type of Pony I've seen! LOL

My bet is that they just didn't draw the legs properly, though it sure looks funny!

This thread is honestly pure gold, I've never laughed so hard.

Either the creators were always having bad days or they were just too lazy to correct their mistakes and thought no one would ever notice :lol:

Now we know how all of those ponies suddenly swtiched places and were in scences they weren't supposed to be. :lol:

Director:  "Okay, Cupcake, Posey's supposed to be in this scene but she had to step out for a minute. You're in!"

Cupcake: "But I don't look anything like Posey"

Director: "Don't worry. No one will notice."

It wasn't in MLP Tales or MLP & Friends, but I remember in The End of Flutter Valley, the ponies and the bee people kept switching voices. Was pretty hilarious to hear this gruff, masculine bee-man voice coming out of Morning Glory.

Edit: My bad! I just read that it WAS actually a part of MLP n Friends!

For me the errors that stood out the most were:

The switching of Wind Whistler and Locket's voices at the end of the Quest of the Princess Ponies.

The constant changing of Sheriff Ricotta's appearance. Like Carrehz, I'd love to know what happened there.

I never saw what Princess Primrose looked like until the introduction of Ebay and such, so although I thought it was weird she had a blue mane and a red tail, I had no idea that this varied from the toy version of her.

     I especially like the image of princess primrose. Her expression says it all. “What do you mean my tail-oh god they gave me the wrong tail! Starburst! Can you do your whole “red robins into blue jays” thing on my tail?”
     Megan’s face: those gosh darn animators! Forgetting my ponytail!” Megan is 110 percent done with this stuff.
     As an animation student, I get kind of how these errors got past. You have to draw quickly, and you have deadlines for production. Don’t meet the deadline, you loose your job as an animator. Poor guys we’re probably just trying to finish before the deadline. I mean, it doesn’t excuse the errors like the tail, and the strange five leg mutations, but it does give an explanation. And yeah, these were made to sell toys. So not a lot was spent on production quality to begin. All these errors are quite funny though. I’m sure a few on the production team got a good laugh when they took a closer look once they finished the job.
This. Sentence. Is. False! Dontthinkaboutitdontthinkaboutit.

Might not be a major animation error, but I don't think pony heads are supposed to reach that far around

I never thought about how far their heads are supposed to turn.

I found another one from "Ice Cream Wars"

Sniffles and Snookums are supposed to be pink

Note the drumstick. Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, "you'll have someone's eye out with that."

Clearly lesson learned too late.

The colours are actually better on Fifi's back. I can't even figure out on the other image which one is meant to be which xD but on Fifi's back I can tell them apart, even without their horns.
