G1 MLP 'n Friends books . . . from 2007!
« on: October 29, 2022, 09:00:33 PM »
Hi guys, I made a little video about the MLP 'n Friends books I found on Taobao (when I was searching for the Chinese translation of "anime colt", ha ha!  I like to put random horse related word combos in the Taobao search because sometimes I find unique fakies or MLP merch from it.)  They were published in 2007 and seem to have been licensed, as they advertise G3 merchandise in the back.

I think maybe MLP 'n Friends was brought over and shown on TV around that time.

Anyway, here's the video!  I love the covers, the art style is so . . . unique.  Watch the video and learn which pony had persimmons on her butt.  :lol:

Those are so interesting, thanks for sharing.  Such a unique style for something licensed, it's reminding me of something I saw in another fandom but I can't quite put my finger on it right now.  I think the hair looks pretty good, it looks like Shetland pony manes!  The MLP and friends stories seen fairly timeless so I can see why they would be enjoyed in 2007.

I would love to see more of the little bios and pony stats!
Thanks to Shimmlight for the new avatar image  :biggrin:

Oh wow, that's really interesting! The art style is very nice and the lighting and shading looks so pleasing, too! I do agree that it is much more G3-esque, which I suppose is expected considering the time that it was released.

I am becoming more and more tempted to start collecting some of the My Little Pony comics.

These are so cool! I LOVE the covers, especially the Bright Lights one with Knight Shade... they're so gorgeous and shiny :lovey: Thanks for sharing!

Does the Glass Princess book have any screenshots from the "Hurry" song sequence? :o
