I sat down and watched the Care Bears Nutcracker special for the first time during Christmas, and the main girl character, whatever her name was, I didn't think much of her voice at first, but halfway through the movie I noticed a peculiar nasally-ness to it. Could it be...? And it was! She was voiced by Tara Strong, all those years ago! She hasn't changed a bit, for better or for worse!

OK, I'll admit, this is like the only thing she did that I liked.

This is basically a personal opinion, but I have never liked Tara Strong. That's all there is to it. I can't really elaborate on why, but pretty much all of her characters get on my nerves.

At first, I thought Pinkie Pie's voice was on the annoying side, but my sister is a FiM fan (but she's NOT a crazy Brony, thank goodness), so I've had to listen to her watch the show at various points in time, and I've gotten used to her voice. Other than that, I can't really elaborate any more than that.

My unpopular pony opinions:

I don't like G4, and my opinion of them has soured grately, because of the immature Bronies in the Pony community. But I never really liked G4 to begin with, even before the "Crazies" (as I call the immature Bronies) latched onto it. I don't like the design, I don't like the voice acting, and I don't like the animation. I find the toys to be lacking in imagination (meaning there really isn't any variety in the poses like the 1980's ponies).

I actually like Megan. I could do without Danny and Molly, though, but I really did like Megan (I just wished they released her in her "Midnight Castle" or "Escape from Catrina" outfit).

I don't see the appeal in Rapunzel. I don't think the pink tinsel goes with the blond hair. I love tinsel haired ponies (like the Princess Ponies and the Sparkle Ponies), but I just don't think it works.

I like the "MLP Tales" series. Not as much as "MLP 'n Friends," but I enjoyed "Tales" a bit.

I love the Soda Sippin' ponies. Especially their curls. I wish I had found my SS gals with their sodas (or at least the strawberry one).

Turned out I didn't have too much trouble after all. Rosedust and Peach Blossom still had a tab remnant, but a pair of tweezers took care of that pretty quickly. So after 15+ years of having them in my collection, they are FINALLY no longer wingless!

I've never had to use a hair dryer to I'm guessing soften the slots? Nor have I heard of that, you should be fine ;)

Yes, the seller said that's what he/she uses to soften them up. Here's teh exact quote from the listing:

"Please insert a object into the pony's wing hole, to stretch the plastic, before inserting the new wings. The pony's plastic is old and may have shrunk over the years with no wings being in the slot."

I have never had a Flutter Pony before, so I have no idea what I'm doing. The wings came today, and after a very long "ooooooohhhhhh, preeeeeettttttyyyyyyyyyy" moment of ogling them, I'm going to make an attempt. I'll start with Honeysuckle, since she's one of my non-favorites (I don't hate her, but she's just not a favorite Flutter Pony of mine). Thanks for the help, everybody!

Pony Corral / Flutter Pony Wings

I've been a bad member. I haven't been here in years, due to being in and out of the MLP fandom. I'm back to ask for some help because I can't find anything on the subject via Google, or on YouTube for that matter.

OK, here's the deal. I bought six sets of the replacement G1 Flutter Pony wings. They haven't come in the mail yet, but I wanted to know this before I attempted to try. How do you attach them to your Flutter Ponies without breaking them? The person who sold them said they used a hair dryer and a craft stick, but I don't own a hair dryer (don't ask). That, and I'd be too afraid I'd over-use the hair dryer and do some serious damage to the Flutter Ponies' wing slots. I never had Flutter Ponies when I was a kid, so I have no idea how they go in. The only thing I know is that they are fragile. Thanks in advance!
