People who think that all older characters are prototypes and carbon copies of current characters irritates the crap outta me. It invalidates the fact that they have their own personality, history and way of handling situations. Plus it perpetuates misconceptions, confusion and for those who actually know otherwise, but do it anyway, flat out lies.

Especially when I see people say stuff like "oh in G3 Rainbow Dash was like *insert description here* but her current personality.." they're different characters!! Or when people call the ponies that the G4 main 6 were based off, the "Concept 6", I hate that. They existed waaaayy before the Main 6 did and they don't exist solely to be "the ones that the main 6 were based off"....And I hate it when people draw Surprise with blonde hair Her hair's chartreuse, dammit.
I think most early pony art draws Surprise with yellow hair. I actually prefer it yellow to the icky green colour they sometimes use, but that looks like being an unpopular opinion, so maaaybe I should take it to the other thread
On the subject of prototypes/carbon copies, Surprise and Honeycomb are absolutely different ponies and are absolutely not clones. They are both amazing and epic ponies and I love them both.
Carrehz your awesome.
Ponies are fabulous!
All the yellow ponies, all the time. Can't get enough of 'em, even though there's practically millions of 'em. I also absolutely love Rainbow Ponies; their multicoloured hair and glittery symbols always made me feel like they were extra special when I was a kid.And there is nothing greater (to my mind) than finding a Sunshine Pony whose hair still changes colour in the light.
